It's probably too old, but there was a post by me on this board a very long time ago discussing it, well before anybody realized how big of a joke it is, especially when dealing with junk science like the climate nonsense. Having somebody who already agrees with your conclusion sign off on your work doesn't impress me the least bit. It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy, and it has mostly been financed by governments around the world.
It's misuse during covid was just laughable and I can't believe some many were duped by it, even when it was constantly changing to fit some prearranged narrative that was mostly designed to "get Trump". Politics and science don't mix at all. We talk about there needing to be a separation between church and state, but there needs to be a similar separation of science and politics.
