Professor Carroll Serron is trying to say, in her cute way, that “science is hard!”

I graduated with a BS in a true science and had to take every math class and chemistry twice.

Didn’t cry about it just did it.

In other academic news from last fall. A professor got an article published through peer review in some post-colonialism journal that there also were some positive elements to colonialism. The Professor is now in hiding fearing for his life last I checked.

This is what we get for throwing money at education when Leftist control the universities.

They create social sciences out of Leftist ideology. Then they populate these new sociology schools with SJWs.

These professors are like other professors, they have to publish or perish.

Thus, we get papers like this. These academics must find new socially misanthropic dragons to slay.

So, the new dragon is ‘meritocracy and individualism’. We can only hope that this paper is laughed off campus.

Then if the bridge falls, a male scapegoat who was not even associated with the project will be found and punished, simply because he is male, thus an oppressor.

“In my opinion, the people who should rise up and challenge this nonsense first and foremost is intelligent people of colour and females and whatnot.”

They are going to ruin the reputation of female scientists the same way they did it for black physicians. It used to be that for a black to become a Dr meant he was at least as good as a white. Then they started admitting and graduating them using affirmative action. Now I wouldn’t trust one to work on my dog.

I have worked with many good female scientists and can tell you that they they are very capable of doing “empirical science”. There is no need to dumb down anything or raise questions about their ability.

“Four professors are warning that the “hegemony of meritocratic ideology” and other manifestations of “masculine culture” in engineering courses are detrimental to women. ... “Socialization into the ideologies of meritocracy and individualism, coupled with a valorization of ‘technical’ prowess at the expense of ‘socially focused’ work processes, depoliticizes the gendered structure of the profession,” they write.”

How would you like to be riding in a plane designed by these gals?

Give them a participation trophy and then send them to a Fauxcahontas Warren rally.

the “hegemony of meritocratic ideology”...

If the ghost of Marie Curie starts hunting these idiots down I swear I'd hand her the axe.

The enemy of the godless left Globalists is always the same one: white male heterosexual men who are competent and intelligent. They are the least likely to be manipulated by the garbage these Communists are selling, therefore they must be marginalized and eliminated.

Who decided that women and non-white people lack merit? That sounds sexist and racist to me.
