    Science is also how they can cause such devastation. Maybe all you scientists should stop empowering the assholes who murder people?

      Science didn’t put assholes in control. It is the anti science US, anti-vaxxers, climate change deniers who put them in.

        But science builds the machines of war. Science unlocks the power inevitably used by those leaders to make war. Scientists are not free from responsibility just because they don’t pull the trigger. They enable the building of the entire gun. At what point to scientists say ‘no more’ and refuse to continue to empower these leaders?

          you are blaming scientist in a thread about a research hospital being blown up

          if you don’t like be called out, stop being an edgy little bitch

          smarmy comments in the face of an institution like this being destroyed is supporting genocide

            Who made the bombs, the targetting systems, the deliver mechanisms, refined the chemicals, built the manufacturing systems, built the guidance systems, the satellites, the cameras, the entire technological logistics systems that empower them to do this?

            Science must be held responsible for the empowerment of psychopaths whose violent use of technology and scientific insights is completely predictable and a matter of historic record.

                This building blowing up was possible because of scientists. It isn’t hard to understand.

                  Reaching so far to blame other people and defend those actually killing others is as brain dead as they come. So I posted this comment to also join in the group of people observing and stating how brain dead you are.
