'As science becomes increasingly accessible to the general public, racist agendas can now more easily use science to disinform. All scientists must pursue and accomplish anti-racism efforts to achieve change at the system level.

@cyrilpedia What a load of shit. Racists have been using "science" to justify their bigotry forever (heard of phrenology?). Scientists' job is to perform experiments, analyze the data, and present it without spin. It's our responsibility to contextualize this new information for society, and to push back against those that would use it for nefarious purposes.
