In these days it may be good to remember some historical facts about ideologies and science.

Lysenkoism (1920s -1960s) was an ideology-based approach to agriculture in the USSR, supported by Stalin (and developed by Trofim Lysenko) that assumed the heritability of acquired characteristics (explicitly denying Mendelian genetics).  Because of it, many scientists were sent to prison (e.g., Nikolai Vavilov) or executed. Finally, it produced declined yields and famine.

Not a good idea to denied fact-base science.
