There is some important nuance inside the article, but it's really interesting to see that the perception one gets from reading US-based news is not necessarily representative of what the rest of the world thinks. This is a single study, but as a scientist, it is a bit comforting to hear that we haven't lost trust from everyone all over the spectrum. Of course, the reasons we did loose such trust are still valid and should not be ignored in light of this study.
Totally agree with you. I was very surprised when I read this article. To be honest, I want this type of world where scientists have a lot of say in most things #849181
(but through general consensus—I don't want any Marvel villain to take over the world). I saw old video clips of Albert Einstein's era where he and the scientific community were so much involved in everything, not just in labs.
