  "The famed mantra of the liberal left in the early months of the pandemic – trust the science – has faded from view, as hero worship ceases for the bureaucrat scientists (Anthony Fauci) and even for the pharmaceutical behemoths that developed, with federal assistance, the Covid vaccines."

  There's a backlash because 'trust the science' actually meant trusting something or someone without question or discussion (If you had the wrong ideas or opinions on Covid or the vaccine during this time, you were fired from your job and cheered on by angry liberal mobs).

  This actually sounds...more...like...religion.
