Engineering will probably be almost completely immune from SJW-type influence in this country for one simple reason: LIABILITY. Nobody is going to hire a civil engineer to design a bridge, or an electrical engineer to design a hand-held phone, when they are exposed to billions of dollars in civil liability if the design is flawed.
One of the things that makes certain fields immune from "PC" and "SJW" idiocy is that the subject matter is transferable across national borders. Medicine and engineering, for example, that can be practiced anywhere in the world because the laws of nature are universal. There's also a downside to that for people who work in those fields ... in that those are fields where it is very easy for foreigners to come here and fill jobs in the U.S.
Depends on the liability, though, doesn’t it? Which has lower premiums: insurance for lawsuits from idiots or insurance for wrongful death?
