The Python Software Foundation got a competitive US research grant, but it came with a condition that they recant and abjure any diversity and inclusion ideas, on penalty of having to repay the money.

Obviously this is not desirable or safe, so no grant.

Donations would help them not regret this

Should science be political? At this point in time, with US President Trump's administration attacking institutions such as the US CDC, NIH, USAID, WHO, and their people and functions, whether science should be political seems li...

Short answer: YES. Science needs politicians for its own protection. In Brazil, whether the government is right-wing or left-wing, in a crisis, Science is the first to have its budget cut. And this is happening again right now.
