Don't see any cuts to maths, physics, chemistry, or computer science. Let alone "complete destruction".

For the enraged ones, reminder: this branch aims to refute "Science has been completely destroyed"


Are you unaware that the executive orders on F&A indirect affect every field of science?

Are you aware that an enormous amount of chemistry, mathematical, computer science, physics, etc. is funded through the NIH?

The poster I responded to complained I gave too many examples, and now your post is a complaint that I didn't give examples in scientific areas you deem important.

For tedious completeness here are a variety of other examples all of which involve math, physics, chemistry, computer science and other non-biomedical fields.

Is there a fluoride article in that barrage of links?


You seem to prefer snarky comments to actual citations. Your loss I guess.


Hey man what’s your problem?
