Ah yes, by being based on the ideas of the famously apolitical Enlightenment and the apolitical ideals of Democracy, "science" is automatically apolitical as well.
Because not only are those premises true, being apolitical is of course a transitive property and not at all tied to how a thing is seen in society: just think of all that famous sun symbols that started out apolitical and then never got politicised because that is of course impossible to do.
Ok, that was probably enough sarcasm for today.
