        The point is, politics are in attached to anything within a society and present in places we wouldn’t think they were - including in our thinking and discourse.

        I agree, to a certain extent. Usually the natural sciences affect policy and politics and not the other way round.

You can’t make 2+2=5, even if you’re living in the current year of 1984.
