Why does this not surprise me?

A women’s studies professor at the University of California, Davis has declared that the time has come to replace “traditional science” with “a much needed anti-science, antiracist, feminist approach to knowledge production.”
The professor is Sara Giordano, according to Campus Reform.
Giordano, who has a Ph.D. in neuroscience but has chosen to pursue a career in the field of gender, sexuality and women’s studies, expounds on her thesis in a lengthy essay in Catalyst, a feminist theory journal.
In her 6,611-word treatise (with only three footnotes), Giordano calls on women to “challenge the authority of Science” by “rewriting knowledge” in a way that “explicitly unsticks Science from Truth and therefore opens up possibilities to unstick Being/Power/Truth/Freedom from Coloniality.”
Science is a root cause — perhaps the root cause — of “racial hierarchy,” “genocide,” “slavery” and “exploitation,” the sexuality and women’s studies professor claims.
“Traditional science” depends on “a colonial and racialized form of power,” Giordano says. “These genealogies demonstrate the co-construction of Science with the globalization of racial hierarchy, both of which together naturalize and justify domination through acts of genocide, slavery, and other forms of exploitation. At the root of the justification for social inequality then is Western science (together with philosophy and other modern disciplines).”
Science is also the cause of the evils of capitalism.

Liberalism is a mental disorder
I would put the odds of her being a regular psychiatric patient at well over even money.
Science = racism
Give this woman a platform! Nothing is better for conservatives than letting the freaks speak publicly!
May I quote you?

She is on someone’s payroll? I bet she talks to herself in scheduled appointments on her couch. “Tell me about your childhood.”
Ironically I just saw on Twitter today an article about Bill Gates admitting his experiment in “Common Core” was a failure.

Quote me?
I am quoting the title of a book!
Who is that dude?
Let’s see the picture of her with her “partner.”
Yes, she probably is one of those.
These are all words in the English language but stuck together like that they don't carry any semantic content. The good Professor has managed to "unstick" words from communication.
The Nazis banned all books (science and otherwise) that were authored by Jews. Today’s Nazis want to ban all books that are authored by white males.
Everything old is new again.
I wonder...does this feminist hag use a computer with a magic circuitboard designed by an “anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-scientist”, or is she still using a semiconductor board developed by evil white male scientists?
Great. Didn’t remember that.
In other words, anything created by white men is the cause of all evil. She should've just come right out and said it plain.
THIS IS Liberalism (insanity) on serious drugs.
Since nearly everything of value in science and technology has been developed by dreaded white males, liberals have declared all of science and technology "racist and sexist."
I've noticed that doesn't stop them from using modern technology and medicine, nor from invoking "science" when it's politically convenient - i.e. when the claims of some scientist can be used to attack business interests or the religious beliefs of their political enemies. In short, liberals never think their stated positions through very well, because it's much easier to emote.
Nuts to that.
I’m sure the Russian, Chinese and Indian children are NOT being taught social justice maff.
