Yeah - I mean corporate/government involvement was a part of
Science since the industrial revolution. I'd agree with the
change as well. I WANT to believe in (aliens/ufos - oh wait, not
those) a "good ol' days" but I don't think there was one. Robber
Barons 100 yrs ago = 1%ers now, etc. Not much has changed,
except we forget history quickly. but yes I love the meme. It's
one of those [1]#childhoodruinedmemes for many. They believed
what they were taught; the golden Scientific Method That Would
Save Humanity... and people who don't "do science" get to keep
believing the mythology.
But then when they "see it"... they know. And it's
disheartening. That doesn't mean there isn't good science there
is. But I think it's important for ppl to take off the rose
colored glasses, see how things "are and then go from there.
