[This was a huge part of their anti-genetic, left-wing driven, Lysenkoist agenda.]



Are you refering to S.J. Gould as an anti-genetic Lysenkoist?

If so, all I can say is "Wow".

Indeed, he was absolutely guilty of the same nonsense as Lysenko! For example, because of his lefty agendas, he fought tooth and nail to decouple genetic influence on human intelligence, a preposterous position for anyone familiar with biology and anthropology to even the slightest degree. He even wrote a book called The Mismeasure of Man which used a straw man (19th Century "science") to taint the whole study of intelligence.
