• The marxists started getting a little uneasy once their ideals devolved to a weird mustached man and another mass murderer in Russia.
• Science - 'it's all made up'. It's a highly social process. And there's the replication crisis.
• Bruno Latour - proposed that that we believe that we are modern and science tells us the truth. This is a really effed up mental model that provides us with arrogonce, limits ouro re-evaluation of possibilities ('we already know everything'), and prevents us from learning from history and other civilizations.
