I think anti-intellectualism is the Revenge of the Idiots, they too want to be able to claim things about the world, it’s just that they can’t, because they don’t know science, and science is hard, but they still want to have opinions, so all they do is just make up their minds that the Earth is flat, and fuck you science, I can believe what I want kind of deal.
It’s like someone sitting in their house saying, “modern art is shit, I can do better”, and proceed to take a shit on the floor just to prove a point to themselves, that they will not be “held back by the man”.
Can’t dress up the scientists lying lyric in a way that isn’t blatantly anti science, but the rest tracks.
