No,
not really. At least not in America.
In
America today, there is only one real question when it comes to science, or
society, or politics, and that is: Will you be a devoted follower of Donald
Trump, or not? All data, discussions, and debates are entirely secondary. None
of it matters if you have devoted yourself to Donald Trump as the Messiah who
will save America, and maybe later the world, if he feels like it.
There
are a few, but influential, religious groups who see Trump as the personal
representative of God and Jesus Christ on Earth today. To question Him (Trump)
is as unthinkable as to question God.
Whether
Trump Himself actually believes this or not doesn’t matter. But He uses
terminology that strongly encourages godlike reverence for Himself. For
example:
Trump
called Himself “the chosen one” to lead America into a trade war with China
Trump
has repeated the endorsements of people who believe Him to be “the second coming of God”.
I
still teach and write for the benefit of those who might be interested, but
until Trump followers stop worshiping Him, it will really not make any
difference.
