Science is NOT in danger from "woke ideology", which is a bullshit invented culture war concept anyway.
Taxing the rich is not about taking "their" money. It is about curtailing their command over *our* collective labour and resources so we can redirect *our* productive capacities away from serving elite accumulation and toward what we know is necessary for well-being and ecology.
