Popular Science is ostensibly about, well, popular science.
But we’d like to know what their current definition of “popular” and “science” are, because the views expressed in this tweet seem to be neither popular nor scientific:

Popular science has managed to become elitist, unpopular, and unrelated to science. Amazing
