As a science communicator myself for over a decade, I agree that <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/scicomms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>scicomms</span></a> has been woefully unprepared for the battle now being waged and I have serious criticisms of the way academia in general has left itself open to charges of elitism. The most common refrain I’ve heard in my career is “don’t dumb it down Vicki” which makes me want to tear my hair out for how patronising that is to the average Joe. So now MAGA has them instead.</p>
