Article on Scientific America's site

For the curious the other endorsement they made was for Joe Biden in 2020.

179 years and the only time they endorsed was against Trump. Almost like he's a piece of shit or something.

It’s Scientific American, not Complete Bullshit American.

To be fair, Americans had no idea just how many of us were anti-science/ pro-bullshit until nearly the end of 2016.

The sad thing is that the rest of the world knew.

Why didn't you tell us?!

Trump firing all those"experts" during his first term really worked out well.

It's gotta be a low bar. Just don't believe in 19th century health conspiracies. You had to have been dropped constantly as a baby to believe vaccines are dangerous.

Vaccines are important but a primary reason I'm voting for Harris is because if she doesn't win, this could be the last election. There are morons voting for Trump just because they think they're getting "revenge" for the existence of trans people by voting red. Both sides have wildly different priorities.

Not necessarily. You could also be a virus.

Second time in 179 years sounds a lot more impressive than they endorsed the same party they did during the last election. They broke the seal in 2020 and will probably endorse someone again in 2028
