| | '''Politicized science''' is the mis-use of [[science]], usually in the form of [[atheism|atheistic]] [[junk science]], to further [[liberal]] public policy. Examples of politicized science used by liberals are the racist theory of [[Eugenics]], used to support forced sterilization of "defectives", as well as prolonged race segregation and discrimination, and [[global warming]] theories which are being used to promote a massive redistribution of wealth and/or a severe rationing of energy consumption (see [[Kyoto Protocol]]). | | '''Politicized science''' is the mis-use of [[science]], usually in the form of [[atheism|atheistic]] [[junk science]], to further [[liberal]] public policy.
