Science. Keeps working even when you don’t believe.
But apart from public hygiene, aircraft, radio, weather prediction, cars, bridges, electricity, medicine, the internet, and beer, what has science ever done for us?
Science. Society’s early-warning system.
Science. Showing the beauty of the world since 1453.
On that note:
On Wednesday, 56 years to the day after Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first human in space, a Phoenix-based collective called the Autonomous Space Agency Network launched a weather balloon to about 90,000 feet. The balloon, Aphrodite 1, weighed a little over a pound and was inflated with 120 cubic feet of helium. Aphrodite 1’s payload consisted of a GPS sensor, a camera and a message for President Trump. It was a printout of a tweet that read, “@realDonaldTrump : Look at that, you son of a bitch.”
“To our knowledge, the Aphrodite 1 launch was the first political protest in near space,” a member of the group wrote to The Washington Post in an email. (Members of the Autonomous Space Agency Network, or ASAN, are anonymous as “a way to discourage the use of the group for the ego or vanity of individual members,” the person said.)
The tweet was quoting Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, the sixth person to walk on the moon. He famously said of viewing Earth from space: “You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch.’ ” This quote has been cited as an example of the overview effect, a perspective shift toward global unity and conservation reported by astronauts struck by the planet’s fragility.
Trumps needs someone to drag him to see that it is the height of idiocy to almost remove from the budget the NASA efforts to look and check the planet where we live.
Science doesn’t need your faith.
Scientists have the solution! (If they don’t have i, they can find it!)
Because the scientific method WORKS

No science = no beer
Gatopescado:
This got my attention!
Locrian:
But it’s true!
Science doesn’t show evidence of that.
We invented the important stuff first!
You beat me to it!
For those too lazy to click on the link:
What do we want? Evidence-based change! When do we want it? After peer review!
Science them by the brain!

How about:
**No Science, No Beer
Know Science, Know Beer**

When I asked a related question a few months ago, it led me to some good links - here is the thread:

I was looking for good resistance slogans in general, not specifically science, but you might enjoy browsing through some of the options. One science-related, though not political, suggestion, was “Science - Like Math Only Louder.” I have to get that one for my son!
Typo_Knig:
Trump: Destroyer of Worlds
Trump done up as Galactus…? Brilliant.
Or maybe Shiva.
One nifty idea I’ve heard: use old meeting posters as signs. Many, if not most practicing scientists should have a pile of old, slightly out-of-date posters. Use one you’ll never present again, and write any slogans on the back.

Hell, I could bring extras.
Beer seems to predate any record of scientific methodologies.
