@elduvelle @csolisr Influencing the results is one thing, but there is definitely a bias in funding bodies towards funding research that will show short-term economic benefit over research that will have longer-term or non-economic benefit.

Who’s staying up for Gorty Dents?@Nickiquote In my day, telling people how to vote was called 'campaigning.'
The sheer narcissism of the rancid little shit, imagining that there couldn't possibly be any legitimate way people would look at him and say, "Nope. Don't want that."

Love how "elitist" now just means "has the audacity to know things."@Daojoan The thing that burns me up is that there is a relationship between education and class, but that is not an inevitability; it is a choice made by the right-wing.
The left wants to extend the opportunity of education to everyone, and for that they're called elitist, while the people who insist on gatekeeping education as a privilege for the rich are salt of the earth. It's entirely backwards.
