We really need to make the effort to quote leftists and anarchists instead of regurgitating lib talking points that the media spoonfeeds us. Popper was promoted here and elsewhere to throw budding leftists off the scent and capture them in neoliberal mindsets. He's bad folks.
I like him in social science fields like psych (damn near essential when you have some crazy claims from wackadoodles) but fields like sociology where its impossible to operationalize sometimes then yeah we should move popper away. i personally love popperian falsification but im also a stats nerd who actually cares about having good data and methods in science
