On whose 'enemies list' did you appear?

Of course, when I say 'enemies list,' I’m speaking metaphorically—at least, I hope so. But the ongoing vilification of scientists, particularly those in climate and environmental fields, is anything but imaginary. In the U.S. today, expertise isn’t just ignored; it’s treated as a threat. As someone who studies climate politics and climate history that this administration is trying to erase, I've faced plenty of backlash—criticism, online trolling, and constant attacks on facts

Oh, I see. Thanks for clarifying that. Yes, advocates of science are frequently attacked, as have all followers of Diogenes. It goes with the territory.

Sometimes it is good to be on the enemies list.
