I was being a bit facetious. I was criticizing what I view to be the shortcomings in contemporary science communication, and I would suggest that you can already see how it has resulted in contempt and mistrust directed towards our institutions.

I think the mistrust came before the contemporary communication.

Especially in the US. A pro-agrarian/anti-development conservative strain goes back to the original colonies.

Interesting they integrated diesel trucks and assault rifles so centrally into their existence. I'm sure those were not around in the original colonies.
