Probably the most expensive too!

That was quite the gift!

They send each other SOS messages?!

Otherwise, its acid could burn through it!

And they say sloths are lazy.

That would be quite the crowd!

Why we confronted #EricGujer `s NZZ:
As the fourth estate, the media bears the responsibility for reporting that holds the state and society to account. Democracy cannot function without independent, fact-based reporting.
Gujer’s newspaper has long since abandoned the foundations of fact-based discussion and media balance. It has thus become a danger to our country and our democracy. Without the #nzz people in this country would be better informed. But that’s not all.
Through its biased advocacy in favor of the #FossilFuelIndustry it is one of the main culprits behind #Switzerland ’s climate failure. It actively and deliberately supports the status quo and the #FossilFuels elites, thereby preventing any urgently needed #change to mitigate the life-threatening #ClimateCrisis .
Through its unscientific discourse of denial, trivialization, and diversion, the NZZ is an active #ClimateCriminal .
Don’t read NZZ if you want to be informed.

Stay clear of pure Hydrogen!

That's hard to believe!

That is a lot of stars!

I can attest to this from personal experience.

Amazing to think of.
-
Do you have any idea how that happens?
-
No saliva, no flavors!
-
Apparently, the fountain of youth exists somewhere in the deep sea.

That is some high-quality stuff!
-
That is a fast trip.
-
That's the equivalent of 100+ elephants!

Yet, we remember soo little of them.

CW: The existence of objective scientific facts is consistent with theories that capitalism influences the content of science. An argument.
Suppose for the sake of argument that science at least in part consists of lists of objectively factual statements about the world, true apart from any theory they might support. Even if it's true that such facts exist in science it's still possible to argue that scientific facts are theory-laden.
Scientific facts result from experiments. The experiments don't create the facts on this reading, but the choice of which experiments to conduct controls which facts are discovered. Some facts, e.g. about subatomic particles, can only result from experiments that are themselves only possible in capitalism because they require too much resources, too much organization, too much coercion, to pull off otherwise. Free people are very unlikely to investigate such facts because doing the experiments isn't possible in a free society.
This is a very brief sketch of a plausible argument that theories of capitalism influencing the actual content of science are consistent with theories asserting the existence of objective scientific facts. It's *not* an argument in favor of the existence of objective scientific facts, which I don't believe in.
