Matthias Kaiser, in his well elaborated and substantiated response to my 2024 discussion paper on a potentially emerging survival science ethos, highlights the central question of this debate: Should scientists directly engage in both, knowledge generation and political action? I argue that we need more debate to qualify our standpoints and that a sociology of scientific protest might inform this debate
