The entire post itself, and your reply, is social science. But science is incapable of alignment to an -ism beyond supporting an idea.

Pure objective truths exist, but humans are not objective creatures so our process of finding those objective truths is flawed at times.

The idea is that the place the OP meme is coming from is a belief that science and agenda are not different things and rather are inseparable. It is very unscientific, it’s a fundamentally anti-intellectual attitude.

In this context, you use the term “belief” very well.
