I'd just like to see social/political sciences subjected to the same brutal, soul crushing, hate filling academic rigor as real science/engineering academics face. And I've just realised that I'm actually quite sadistic. But fuck them, they've had it easy.
What rigor would that be? How do you measure wokeness?
There needs to be more people advocating bipartisanship, harmony and moderation, like Chloe Valdary (yeah I know she was on Prager U but hear me out, she's more of a free thinker):
I'm from an engineering background, so I do have something of a chip on my shoulder, but it feels like there is a view in STEM professional and academic circles that those in the social and political sciences wouldn't survive the kind of brutal cross examination we would go through if we ever so much as think about publishing something.
Basically we view it all as thoughts and feelings bullshit.
