Laura Helmuth has resigned from her position as Editor-in-Chief from the Scientific American after she sparked significant backlash with an unhinged, incendiary rant against Trump voters.
Last week, in the wake of President-elect Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris, Helmuth referred to Trump voters, specifically Gen-X, as “fascists” in a series of deleted posts on Blue Sky. More
What a great post Doc Tar. Something that’s been on my mind. I’m hearing Libtards and Conservatives claim science is dead. Wrong. Science is science and it’s a discipline. If you’ve abandoned the discipline for political gain than you are no longer following the discipline and should be expelled from that very special community. Science has no emotion or political leaning. So when you hear these fruit loops addressing the RFK appointment claiming he has no science behind him, they’re full of shit. Argue this.

To translate what she said: “I value all political views, even those of the racist neo-Nazi bigoted a**holes who can go F**k off and die a painful death for not being as open-minded and accepting as I am.”
Did I miss anything?
She said: “I’m going to take some time to think about what comes next (and go birdwatching),”
If people recognie her, what she’ll see is people flipping her the bird. I won’t because I won’t recognize her face. I saw it and don’t care to remember it.
This is simply incredible. I’ve never seen anything like it. Trump hasn’t even been sworn in yet, and won’t be for almost two more months, and already the much-needed and long-overdue house-cleaning has begun.
I used to love rereading SA when I was in Junior High. About the time I started college it was slipping. During grad school I set it aside permanently. It’s been ‘woke’ for over 35 years.
Glad the woke are abandoning the media they have corrupted. Musk should acquire/buy Scientific American and restore it to its original mission statement of reporting actual science. He could get it dirt cheap. The left are probably desperate to sell.
SA declined somewhat post-WW2 but the real rot set in with the magazine’s sale in 1986 to the German company Holtzbrinck Publishing Group.
Scientific American, National Geographic, Archaeology, and on, and on, have all turned to crap.
Did Holtzbrinck PG buy all of them?
Just asking, not trying to start some shit.

SA is a lost cause. It went woke in the 1990s, before woke was even a thing. You don’t come back from that unless you fire the entire staff and editorial board, and start from scratch.
unscientific antiamerican
You think what the shitlibs did to Scientific American is bad. You should see what they did to Boy’s Life.
^^^ And Nun’s Life.
maff has to be decolonized, right bitch?
The photo of the(as usual) fat commie death democrat sprung looks like someone took a sanding wheel to her hog jowls. No doubt a lesbo.
I first read about fusion research in my dad’s Scientific American in July 1972. Scientific American was bullshit then, and has only gotten stinkier.

Inquiring minds want to know… if “The Science is Settled” why are they in business?
I quit subscribing when they got rid of the Amateur Scientist decades ago.
Their stupidity has never let me down since…
