And warn Trump would endanger the future of science.


More than 80 Nobel prize winners have endorsed Kamala Harris for the presidency, warning that Donald Trump would “jeopardize any advancements in our standards of living” given his earlier proposals for enormous cuts to science funding.

In an open letter, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times, 82 Nobel prize winners from the US in the fields of physics, chemistry, economics and medicine, said “this is the most consequential presidential election in a long time, perhaps ever, for the future of science and the United States”.


The letter, which commends Harris for recognizing that “the enormous increases in living standards and life expectancies over the past two centuries are largely the result of advances in science and technology”, called Trump a potential threat to progress who could “jeopardize any advancements in our standards of living and impede our responses to climate change”.
 
Just goes to show, you can do academic stuff and still be a complete dickhead. LOL.
 
Translate that to, "We're scared shitless Trump will turn off the shovels full of government monies we've been getting."

Everyone should be scared about the possibility of funding for scientific research being cut. Money spent that way is never wasted -- not even if the subject of research seems entirely silly or unimportant to you.
 
82 people added to the Harris voter count? That's impressive! That'll be like double, maybe even triple, the total number of people voting for her! 🤭😄

Third graders have a better sense of humor than you. That was a truly embarrassing attempt at humor.
