Do Republicans believe in gravity?

The last I heard, the concept of gravity was part of science. And since Republicans proudly proclaim their non-belief in science, it's why I ask that question.

The truth, as we all know, is that they all believe in gravity. The rest of their anti-science crap is pure politics, as well as very selective. We know for sure that millions of them don't believe in science when it come to vaccines. Countless numbers of them have died to prove their belief.

I must admit that I sometimes wish that their non-belief in science extended to gravity. Think how many of their voters would seek greater heights to jump from to prove that gravity is a hoax spread by the liberal media.

In my more charitable moments, I'm glad they're not that foolish. After all, think of the poor bastards who would have to scrape up the remains.

for his theory of gravity. What’s changed whether it’s Christians and/or Republicans?

Do you suppose that if Republicans gain control, they'll torture us into loving "Dear Leader?"

Quite a few flat earthers, almost all of whom are hard-right, believe gravity is as much a hoax as the belief the earth is an oblate spheroid.

They are oblivious about appreciating the beauty of science and hate it as much as they hate facts.

The facts of the success of vaccines is just one more fact for them to mindlessly hate in their fabricated fantasy world.
