The group that had been exposed to windmill sounds were then asked what sound they had heard, and none were able to identify it as anything other than white noise.This study is far from the first to conclude that "wind turbine syndrome" phenomenon is not rooted in cognitive or acoustic science and because it was conducted in Poland, the scientists behind it were able to say as much without worrying about losing their academic funding.In the United States under Trump's second regime, however, this sort of research would almost certainly not be funded at a public institution due to the president's sweeping anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) push that aims to eliminate such "woke" science from this country.It seems obvious to most even-keeled observers that Trump and Elon Musk's "anti-woke" campaign is meant to drive those who oppose their agenda out of public life but hey, at least Europe still has real science.More on the anti-woke agenda: Trump Orders NASA to Purge All Mentions of Women in Leadership On Its WebsitesShare This ArticleImage by Getty / FuturismRead This Next
