We've normalised right-wing lunacy and it has to stop. It's dangerous. Rather than calling today's hearing in the US with Fauci what it is, a frightening attack on science, media are calling it a "contentious" meeting. They focus on Fauci's defense rather than the unacceptability of highly aggressive, personal attacks on a distinguished scientist. By explaining what the right-wing conspiracies are after, before discussing them, they are part of popularising them. 1/2

@W_Lucht@mstdn.social Victor Ambros (a Nobel laureate, in case anyone didn't know) already has a job at the Polish Academy of Sciences and is applying for citizenship. It is surely just a coincidence that this is happening right now. According to Eurostat data, migration from the US to Europe increased in 2025. I know US right-wingers claim everyone wants to move to the US, yet currently, more people are migrating from the US to Europe than the other way around. People from wealthy countries don't migrate. You can see this in my own country: twenty years ago, when we joined the EU, many people migrated West; now that Poland—thanks to EU membership—has become the world's 20th-largest economy, migrants are returning.

@W_Lucht@mstdn.social #msm is owned by the political class. They will not change unless they are forced to.
