>Extreme progressive Liberals are killing science and progress in this country,

There is literally a major political party in the US that parrots science to be fake & that religion/faith in god is all that matters. Also, that "progress" (in a technological/scientific sense) is a bad thing

Last I checked, it was not the progressives that identify with this line of thinking.

Come on.

Extreme political views tend to produce similar results, regardless of their justification.

The mainstream republican party does not say any of those things. You are taking fringe positions and making them emblematic of the party.

On the other hand, the democratic party openly and literally claims there is no distinction between male and female.

There are dumb policy positions all over the board. No one denies science as a whole. Everyone picks and chooses.

Consider my state of Oregon... they're literally removing the ability to do math and read as graduation requirements and the GOP minority is left asking 'why'? How can you honestly make the claim the democratic party is uniquely the party of science
