It is depend of what kind of Science you are talking about I think. If is about the Netflix Science shows I would say yes (Science guy show for example)... if is a Science who behave like Religion without admitting any debate (a intellingent one of course, not a show tv debate one) I also would say yes (the "what I say is a fact and will be not disscusion about it" sayers for example)... other than that I do not see Science been a "brainwashing" tool but more an eye and mind "opener" tool :)
