Now is not the time for the scientific community to self-censor. We need to all unite together and get behind grassroots efforts like #standupforscience if we are to effectively overcome the attacks on science!

“In 2017 almost every scientific society in existence formally endorsed the March for Science. It appears to me that scientific societies are much more reluctant to throw their official support behind today’s protests,” said Lucky Tran, a science communicator who helped organize the 2017 march. “I understand that scientific institutions are being cautious because this time they are more directly targeted, however I am worried about them preemptively self-censoring, which could be very damaging in the long-term.”

Sadly, the scientific community's horrid response to our climate crisis makes it clear that they'll not choose to the right thing towards addressing fascism's reemergence.
