I didn't know right-wing means rejecting bad science and progressive means accepting it.

It doesn't, so there's something you're correct about!

But certainly pro-processed-foods stuff gets pushed by the right, and Soros is on the left, so there's the contradiction.

Huh? You're on the side of RFK Jr and the MAHA nutjobs. This is the kind of "science" they believe in.
Sometimes among large groups of people there are varying opinions, you'll see this more as you grow up. The american right wing is one such group.
So it's not as simple as "questioning bad science makes you a conservative". Glad we agree.
Absolutely we agree. Being able to recognize and intelligently question bad science does not appear to have much overlap with conservatives, at least in America.

The only point I'm making is that it's nonsensical for you to claim to be receiving "Soros bucks" for shilling ultra-processed food as healthy. That's not a stance the Soros foundation takes.

I didn't say ultra processed foods are healthy. I said the entire idea of ultra-processed is vague and incoherent.
