At the rate Republicans are abandoning science ...

... it's just a matter of time before they start jumping off high buildings, proving that gravity is just a WOKE opinion.

Hmm, how many genders are there, you drunken old fool? Any group of dunderheads that claim there are more than two genders are certainly NOT the party of science.

Was there a particular reason for this spew? Or just her spew of the day?

If this is Nance alluding to the stereotype of Rs as being anti-Covid-vaxxers, looking at CDC data here https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccination-states-jurisdictions bursts her stereotype-bubble. 69.5% of Americans "Completed a Primary Series", i.e. two doses of Pfizer, Moderna, or Novavax, or a single dose of J & J. Since the US is approximately half Rs and half Ds, even if every D got vaccinated, nearly half of Rs "Completed a Primary Series". This is an over-simplification because: 81.4% of Americans received at least one dose, with some either choosing or forgetting or not knowing to get the second dose; as arch-Anti-Vaxxer RFK Jr., at least some people refusing the Covid vaccines are Dems. In the real world, Rs may have accepted the Covid vaccines at a lower rate than Ds, but probably most Rs at least "Completed a Primary Series".

If Covid vaccines are Nance's bellwether of SCIENCE, I'd love to hear her comments on her host country's failure to aid Canadian company Medicago's vaccine development and testing efforts. Medicago's vaccine was so late to the market and so central to Medicago that its investors shut down the company, in February 2023 if I recall correctly.

Of course, her post was just -Nance-spew, so my post is just to show, especially to onlurkers from DU, how ignorant Nance is.

LIEden's mouthpieces are so "scientific" that they claim there are no physiological capability differences between female athletes and male-who-identifies-as-female athletes.

He ain't a man either; just another crazy-assed dude in a dress. But no, putting on your sister's high heels and sun dress doesn't make your crazy ass a woman. No matter how many times you squeal NUH-HUHHH...

Dems and leftists abandoned science when they preached 'concensus' which is not science at all.

I embrace science.  Here is an interesting bit of scientific research I stumbled across.

Analysis of the facial characteristics that were crucial in making decisions about ideology revealed that masculinity and attractiveness were not linked to ideology in males. However, more attractive females were more likely to be representatives of right-wing parties. Happy faces, both male and female, were also more likely to be representatives of right-wing parties, while faces with neutral expressions were more likely to be left-wing. Although rare, women whose faces showed contempt were more likely to be representatives of left-wing parties.

For females (though not males), high attractiveness scores were found among those the model identified as likely to be conservative. These results are credible given that previous research using human raters has also highlighted a link between attractiveness and conservatism.”

Conservative women are pretty and leftist women are dogs.  It's science!
