"When science is viewed in isolation from the past and politics, it’s easier for those with bad intentions to revive dangerous and discredited ideas."

Shouldn't science always, without any exception, be viewed in isolation from the past and politics?

I feel like the only reason this idea that science shouldn't revolve solely around the practice of the scientific method, and the observation and application of the results of experimentation, is being entertained is because people are posting these viewpoints in high-profile places like Nature.
