A: Because the theory of Natural Selection is a machine which takes
A) VARIATION, subjects it to</br>
B) DIFFERENTIAL SUCCESS, and makes it</br>
C) HERITABLE to begin again.
Here's the rub:
A)=Diversity</br>
B)=Inequality</br>

This is very specific: I will campaign for your husband if he commits to protecting the job of *everyone* behaving scientifically. Which is to say “ZERO anti/pseudo scientific social engineering.” No oaths. No compelled statements.

|content=Oh for f’s sake. Science didn’t lose the public trust.
Academicians stripped of [[Academic Freedom|academic freedom]] lost public trust. [[Peer Review|Irreproducible Peer reviewed papers]] lost public trust. Public health lost public trust.
Is ANYONE worried about Avogadro’s number or the genetic code being wrong?

When you ask for implicit bias testing to decolonize science, allow them to tell you that you are a quack racial fetishist. Let them kick you out of their buildings on campus.

|content=Starkly: lap dogs &amp; scientists are not the same thing. If you want to get a cuddle pal and put festive ribbons in its hair, you want a French poodle.
No one smart does that with a honey badger, wolf or Wolverine.
Scientists need insulation from you if you expect to trust them.

|content=@matloff @MeGupsta Let’s not get sucked in to woke optics.
We get it: the woke are for all things good in theory. In practice it is a bit different. So they call their sub movements things like “Dignity for first peoples!” to get you not to question what they are actually up to in reality.

|content=@matloff @MeGupsta I absolutely believe in diversity and inclusion through merit. I don’t believe in equality of outcome under any circumstances. I believe in some remediation of real historical oppression and limited current structural problems. But not to the DEI extent by a long shot. Thanks.

|content=@matloff @MeGupsta To me, Merit is a diversity program. My ethnic group has been among the most brutally oppressed in living memory. And merit worked for us even in eras of open discrimination. Let’s extend that success to all.

|content=@matloff @MeGupsta I’ve been pretty clear about that. But DEI(tm) is a disaster. Let’s encourage and mentor those interested in STEM from underrepresented groups. And a lot of that is rigor. Soft DEI(tm) thinking doesn’t help in hard STEM subjects. It does the opposite.

|content=@Mangocorona No. Or at least they weren’t very recently. A professor had the salary of a dentist but the intellectual freedom of a billionaire until recently. If we could restore that we wouldn’t need much FU money. But now we do. Because
we blew it on witch-hunting independent thinkers etc.

|content=@matloff @MeGupsta Well, I’m pretty outspoken about wanting a diverse group of Americans in STEM. And pretty outspoken about the woke abomination of DEI as a means to achieve that. If there were a program called “Help every orphan” I would likely oppose it because it is more likely to house a scam.

|content=Get this lunacy out of the labs. This isn’t funny. It’s not cute. The grownups need to exclude such buffoonery in matters of national health &amp; security.
This is simple straight up racism. It has no place in science.

So does poetry. And literary analysis. Etc. But if they can’t be redeemed, that’s not a reason to take out neurobiology.

|content=Look. This is simpler than we make it out to be.
We just need to remove the things that actually work from universities. Why we have algebraic topology and civil engineering co-located with DEI neocommunist indoctrination is absurd.
It’s past time to let stupid fend for itself.

We have to stop letting this indoctrination campaign ruin our core infrastructure. It’s an issue of national security, economic prosperity and survival.

|content=It was written in 2017. That is now 6 years ago. We have not pulled out of this madness. We went on to make test scores optional. We remade our research universities as factories of DEI rather than citadels of scholarship. And we’re going to have to undo this all at some point.🙏
