hep general: experiment edition.
it seems theorists and experimentalists at the top tiers of high-energy physics support future colliders like the FCC, the ILC, and even CEPC (even though nobody in our community outside chinese natives would move to bumblefuck firewall land regardless of how great their Nimatron turns out).
however, it seems the normies (and by extension the elected officials of democracies all over the world) got memed by Sabine and other low-IQ shillers into the idea that our very small salaries and our relatively inexpensive experiments need to be defunded, because you know, if you save 8 billion dollars over 20 years on not building the next collider then we could spend 700.04 billion dollars per year on the military instead of the very weak 700.00 billion dollars per year on the military. did normies destroy our dreams?
