Neat how the study presents Trump as a garden variety conservative who neatly balances the scale to Biden, Warren, or Sanders. Rather than as the white supremacist, misogynist, and transphobe that he is.
"Female students reported less tolerance for speakers than male students. LGBT students reported less tolerance for speakers than straight students. Black students reported less tolerance than Hispanic, Asian, or white students."
Whysoever would these groups of students not support Donald Trump coming to their campus to give a rousing campaign speech? It's is truly a free speech mystery.
(Please accept the typos in my tweets as my expression of free speech. I am fully 60% feeling that I cannot misspell things and make grammatical errors in front of professors!)
So much shallow hype: the largest every free speech survey! Traffic light rating of all the unis and colleges surveyed! We ranked everyone! There's a number 1, say hurray! And here are the bottom three! You can boo their red light rating!
So little thought.

It really is so very bothersome that there is smearing and name-calling in conversations between anti- and hereditarians. By all means let’s condemn those who call the others “lying idiots” who are “deranged.” *thumbs up*
I can't always seem to find the patience that others have. I'm often sorry about that. I edited my response to this thread in an effort to be a little nicer. You can still see how shaky the defence is of what emerge as noticeable implications from #NathanCofnas' published work.
Someone asked me, in response to my mini-thread above, why I would object to keeping "equally smart" kids out of the same class. He also suggested that Phillippe's defence is not elaborate, but a plain reading of #NathanCofnas's paper. I think the opposite is true. My response:
And also when you’re for sure only talking about your hobby horse, biological sex, and never about gender.
It's not the first time that Colin Wright has mocked an announcement from my own university. Last time it was a job ad in forestry. This time it's a page on the website of the the Indigenous teacher education program.
The discussion shows the opposite: there is no consilience in sight between what this ML physiognomy paper says and what is suggested by evidence from other research fields.
Rich perspectives from across fields say, no, these aren't strong claims. The opposite of consilience.
Last spring, when the pandemic hit, I've had three conference talks cancelled. This week, I received emails from two of the conferences about resurrecting the program in 2021, and whether I would like the papers submitted in the past to go ahead as they were. 1/
One of the conferences was to be held in a location in Canada. The health district where it would have taken place has a cumulative #COVID19 count of 206 cases and 6 deaths. 2/
The conference organizers are taking the conference online--with apologies to those for whom that's a barrier. I will be able to attend. 3/
