Lysenkoism is (now) the word we use to describe the process by which science is corrupted by a government which does not want the truth to be discovered, but only wants its prescribed truth to be validated

It's named after the Soviet pseudoscientific political misadventure that said western Darwinism was too individualistic for Marx, famines from collectivism could not be soothed by this fake science.

Now see the new Lysenkosim from RFK, and to an extent Republicans in general. It's Dangerous.
