    I think you’re confusing “politics injected into science” with science. Science is data and analyzing it. Pretending someone didn’t invent something is removing data points and I’m pretty sure science calls that fraud, just like we call the studies that found cigarettes healthy to be frauds, or the oil companies to be frauds. 2 wrongs don’t make a right.

      all due respect, you have no clue what you’re talking about. choosing what to honor in the current day has nothing to do with “revisionist history” or “removing data points”. not when they’re making statues and not when they’re naming galaxies. leave that shit to the museums.
