"tRuSt tHe sCieNCe!"

This is a joke of course...well kinda. When science is done well it can change the world. Who would be against that?

I don't like the phrase because while the process of science seeks to be as factual and unbiased as possible those in the scientific community are still human. They are fallible, corruptible and can do things for their own personal gain or profit. So to me it could mistakenly misunderstood as "trust science blindly"

But "Trust the science that is validated by multiple reputable sources" just doesn't roll off the tongue as nicely

Trust the process maybe? This post is about the process of science correcting errors after all.
