More Hypocrisy!
@mbeisen also attacked the NumPy computer science Paper for having 26 male authors no women...

but he had no problem participating in a paper with 14 male authors and 0 women, getting credit, and putting it on his website:
@mbeisen don't virtue signal and say things you do not mean.

If you really think your career has been a failure, and that science is a flawed system...then resign. Quit wringing your hands and dithering....resign.

Don't bluff. Follow through.
The hypocrisy never ends

When I pull up one of his old papers @mbeisen wants to be let off with an admission of guilt, but when it came to the NumPy paper he says we shouldn't absolve people of their failings.

Ok, why should we absolve @mbeisen and let him keep running a LAB?
Ok....fix the problem at the level of YOUR LAB @mbeisen by resigning and giving your job to a woman. Do THAT. let's see if you are willing to follow through with your false moral posturing.
Another point of absolute dishonesty....
The NumPy paper had 26 male authors and no female authors, the paper @mbeisen participated in had 14 male authors and no female authors....but his field has WAY more women then computer science.

There's a story behind the squirrel story everyone's missing.

A man had his home searched for 5 hours until officials found his pet squirrel, which they took and then killed.

The problem isn't that government broke the law, the problem is that it *didn't* break the law

/🧵
2/
People analyze this story as an abuse of power or as government over-reach, but that's not the problem.

The problem is that everything the government did, including killing the mans pet, was LEGAL.

And that's what people find scary: the government is allowed to act that way
3/
The problem is not that the government broke the law, the problem is that the government terrorized a man and his family, disrupted his life, destroyed a source of his income, killed his pet, and left him heartbroken...and doing this was totally legal.

Woke and Weaponized government mega thread!

I've been documenting how American government institutions have been hijacked by woke activists, and I've put all my threads in one big thread so you can see how bad things are/🧵

When lgbtq+ activists talk about 'queer' they don't mean "being different."

The lgbtq+ activists definition of "Queer" is about opposing and abolishing *ALL* social norms, and abolishing the idea that anything should ever be declared to be "normal"

Queer Theory,

A Thread🧵
2/
"Queer Theory" is an academic discipline which claims to study human sexuality, except that it does not use *science* to study secuality.

Queer Theory analyzes sex, gender, and human sexuality using a method of engagement created by neo-marxists called "Critical Theory."

In 1937 Max Horkheimer wrote an essay called “Traditional and Critical Theory” which explains the difference between "traditional theory" and "Critical Theory."

According to Horkheimer, traditional theory is purely descriptive; its only goal is describe the world as it is...

To show you how captured by wokeness Government institutions are, here's a list of insane things published by *JUST* the National Institutes for Health. /🧵

They hired a "fat activist" to write about "fatphobia, and say there's no evidence for safe weight loss. Image

2/
The NIH has an article about "Hari discrimination" and the prospect of living with "Black Hair in an Unjust Society" Image
3/
They have a 3 part series on "intersectionality," a term coined by Critical Race Theorist Kimberlee Crenshaw.

The entire series is about how institutions are systemically biased against women in various ways, and how employees ought to advance DEI as a way to fix this. Image

The National Institutes of Health hired an activist who claims:

-obesity doesn't cause poor health
-safe weight loss isn't possible
-poor outcomes for obese people are caused by fatphobia, and anti-fat bais

America's largest Health organization is captured by activists/🧵Image

These ideas come out of an academic field called "Fat Studies," which has it's own academic journals. The ideas from Fat Studies come almost entirely out of Critical theory and Postmodernism.

Those who work in Fat Studies call themselves "Fat Scholars" and "Fat Activists." Image

3/
Fat Studies is postmodern, and as such is accepts the postmodern idea objective absolute, universal truth does not exist.

Postmodernism says all truth claims are socially constructed, and are thus polluted by the biases, interests, and agenda's of the people who created them.

Critical Social Justice (woke) activists don't see legitimacy as a product of competence, knowledge, merit, and and high standards rigorously and consistenly applied

They think legitimacy is a form of social capital that allows privileged people to accrue prestige and status Image
2/
According to wokeness, legitimacy is not given to institutions, ideas, or people because they have met the objective standards of merit, competence, knowledge, and truth

Rather, legitimacy is a social convention that gatekeeps access prestige, status, power, and resources.
3/
Woke activists accept the postmodern idea that there are no objective standards for knowledge, truth, merit, rationality, and competence.

They think all standards of judgement are socially constructed according to the interests amd values of the people who constructed them...
