And, yet, we still have ignorant idiots like the flat earthers, and other science deniers. Just unbelievable.

Even worse, too many of those fools have been elected or appointed to public office, where they can get their mitts on the steering wheel of public policy.
We really need more science education in this country, as well as critical thinking and civics.
