Gotta love assholes thinking they know better than scientists, and then claiming "we're defending human rights!".

Using this Asimov quote is surely a cliché, but "Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'".

Feel free to scream that you're right and I'm wrong...
