On science communication:

Today Elon Musk attacked Anthony Fauci. The post got at least 600,000 likes.

Whatever this means for #TwitterMigration (should be: let's leave!),
it also means many have been radicalized against Fauci and science and gov't. While many of us have been carrying about our business, rightwing media has been creating vast hate for science. Vast.

There's only one solution: FIGHT. (more below) /1

@protecttruth To be completely honest, 600K likes is considerably less than I expected given Musk's follower count and reach.

Your other points in this thread remain valid. While I have my suspicions that MTG and her ilk will have a harder than expected time over the next two years given the thin margins in the House and given that the Senate and executive remain blue, they are still going to try hard to undermine and even destroy science.
