Science is incapable of ever being truthful because every scientist is an amoral wannabee friend of Jeffrey Epstein. These nerds literally take lessons in school to learn how to beg for patronage to do research. Of course their studies usually end up being about managerial bourgeois praxis like using skull shape measurements to categorize workers. That's what personality psychology is about at the end of the day, Brave New World style eugenics with humane empathy for wage slaves.
I feel like there's a broader impulse on the left to dunk on Facts and Logic / Rationality™ stuff. And that's good, but specifically it's good because the Ben Shapiro / New Atheist versions of those things are bad facsimiles of empiricism and rationalism, not because empiricism and rationalism are actually bad. It would be a pretty huge self-own for the left to divorce itself from science. Real Lysenko hours.
Yes. Ceding science to the right is a huge mistake and a betrayal of Marxism.
Communism has always embraced science, and I remember the CPP on either RevLeft or Prolespod talking about wanting to create a more scientific and less superstitious society as one of their central goals.
Also, Lysenko wasn't actually that bad.
