This would hit a lot harder if they didn't themselves ignore "meta-analysis of dozens of studies clearly contradicting [their] main point" and "giant piles of verifiable, objective facts" when it suits them. Or if they actually read the studies they claimed to love, instead of getting The Science fed to them via the media lens.

That's the annoying thing about libs; they're so self-righteous, and think they're better than everyone else, especially the Evil Far Right (which is everyone except their chosen few.)

I'm at least realistic enough to see that both sides are at times guilty of this. I don't think the left or the right are totally 100% "pro-science" or "pro-fact." I'd argue the right is, on the whole, much more pro-reality, however. But yeah, they're ideologies, they're going to be ideologically protective, sometimes in ways that aren't completely honest. Leave it to a lib to think they have everything on their side, against the evil and stupid right.

Also, leftoids can keep science out of their damn mouths, considering they get consistently trounced by "conspiracy theorists," "science deniers," "climate deniers," and such. If leftoids were honest and introspective, Covid would have been a massive fucking embarrassment for them and their claims to be on the side of science.
