Ezra Klein, once the main character of liberalism, has lost the mandate of heaven to diversicrats. What an amazing exchange

Alright here's a thread I've been sitting on a while
It's a meme at this point that the humanities are rotten, and that the soft sciences have a replication crisis
but most on the outside don't realize how even hardest sciences are crumbling facades playing a game of telephone
OK you ask for it, you get it.
This will be Academia is Stupid Part I: Research
Almost all humanities & social sciences research in the Anglophone world happens at an extremely elementary level, and is to a large degree repetitive, unoriginal, or wrong.
Mr Klein is ofc wrong that this problem is "too much everything bagel"
the correct diagnosis is that the only remaining purpose of the lib project is to secure sinecures for wahmen and minorities (ideally that platonic ideal bleck afro wahman). everything else is excuses
This is why California has all those things right?
We *have* uncontested Blue rule is parts of the country, and it looks like poop in the streets, typhoid epidemics and the gini coefficient of a third world country.
At the heart of the CRT narrative is so-called "Jewish Bolshevism," or the conspiracy theory that Jews and Communists are secretly eroding civil society in order to overthrow nations like America.
This racist, baseless idea has been active for a long, long time.

this really bothers me tbh
Obama won on "Hope and Change" whereas Trump had "Immigration, Trade, and No More Foreign Wars" yet the later is considered by respectable outlets a blowhard personality cult
@L0m3z
theres a grain of truth, but the examples are poor and misrepresented e.g. 1619 was so bad that *even* trotskyists were upset with it, not leaders
the last line is particularly irritating since Trump's 2016 campaign was the most cogent policy focused platform in modern politics
Not trans enough for you, Charlotte?
You claim to be a champion of every LGBTQetc person, but when they don’t follow your political agenda, you’re just a huge bigot.
I’ll give this to Jenner — the campaign is showing how non-inclusive and intolerant the leftists really are.

@DudespostingWs
What Millenials read growing up:
there is [society] bound by [strange traditions]. it works after a fashion, but it's stagnant and dying. the heroine (nearly always a she) discovers some coming cataclysm the elders have failed to foresee. She must save the society by changing it
After the ADL called on Fox News to fire Tucker Carlson after his segment last week on demographic change and political power in America, Tucker points out that the ADL made the same argument that he did when it came to Arabs in Israel.

@0x49fa98
they wont work
you will never get "enuf" femael pipefitters and millwrights, and no one who has ever worked with union trades in an industrial setting has ever thought let alone said "we need more women doing these jobs"
at best paper woman owner
at worst project shut down
@RoyalEndeavour
It's even funnier where in 2 panels it goes to suicide bombs, because that's the only way they could think up to smear these positions, despite the complete lack of connection to the ideas
@____worldtour
i doubt this is real
info is too identifiable (where the degrees are from etc.) for someone to post in this cadence ("negroids"). id expect more of a Damore register
@KeepNHGranite
Don't worry about the insane replies here on twitter. Twitter is about as blue as Vermont.
Keep fighting the good fight. Upwards of 60% of Americans stand behind you.
@ScienceMagazine
thank you lads
surely then your next article is going to be that green and red dont exist because of the continuous variation between them?
Why do people hate going to have their car fixed? Because experts can and do lie to the detriment of those they are advising
Doctors ain't better at this than mechanics - they recommend a staggering amount of unecessary procedures, and medical error is a top cause of death
@DailyCaller
This isn’t the correct argument. The problem is that everyone thinks they can do some googling to become an expert. Fact check: experts are experts because they are highly trained and *experienced*, not because they “read somethings on the interwebs”
Was listening to the public classical music station and it served up the perfect example of how deeply embedded the progressive egregore is
it just touches every facet of life
@AnechoicMedia_
this monologue is genuinely hilarious
a laundry list of "societal expectations" that women obsess over but men have never given a shit about and dont expect from women
female intrasexual competition confused for rah rah smash the patriarchy
Is it any wonder they are turning out the way they are?
My question: is there any such novel that takes the formula and applies Chesterton's Fence to it? The traditions exist for reasons the heroine doesn't understand and she realizes the ancestors were wiser than she thought?
Maus, Persepolis and Their Eyes Were Watching God were all required reading in highschool at some point depending on the particular curriculum year
This was like 15 years ago
@SaladBarFan
bro neither understands what an IQ "test" is (its not an exam for a class lol)
nor the central limit theorem and z-scores apparently
btw he has exactly one first author paper from 10 years ago, lmao
Based on the description from the radio I am now a Florence Price denier
no such person ever existed lmao

Even today, bluechecks with tens of thousands of followers get mogged and ratio'd by rw anons with like 500

@_nomadic_soul
*yawn* perception of taller and stronger are almost always tail phenomenon (basketball players and powerlifters)
use real numbers btw. its mostly variance that drives tail phenomenon
@knrd_z
its even funnier than that
we make mountains out of certain molehills (edgy jokes)
only to wave aside actual catastrophic mistakes (the 20s of every modern wahmen)
@MrPumpkinFace1
Because they think the existence of rare genetic disorders such as klinefelters (XXY) or complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (XY but female externally w/ no uterus) which have debilitating life long effects and generally result in sterility is an own
Every field has its common error which invalidates large swathes of the literature
Often times it's been around so long that the next generation of students don't even realize it
But we play this game of gelman amnesia where we pretend the rest is ok
This is the take away moment desu. Look at how he tears up and barely contains his emotion when he describes front page publications in Science (!!) making as basic an error as measuring cross products when the constituents are parallel
Average American: I am against the agenda of the billionaire financier class
J00s: immediately recoil in horror and say its a canard
Methinks the lady doth protesy too much
this is what I want to leave you with
I was TAing a class on XPS and had a grad student come up to the prof after the literature reading assignment on this topic
"I've had papers published in top ACS journals using the AdC indexing and had no idea!"
its all a game of telephone
@CityBureaucrat
That headline picture is a masterful bit of propaganda
White victim in nice clothes Haven Monahan style front and center (though smaller than shooter pic for plausible deniability)
"Rich kid" tagline
"Bullied for clothes, nice car"
They knew exactly what they were doing

gonna press x to doubt on that one chief
have you tried looking for an old tweet recently? let alone an old forum poast
and the search engines keep getting (deliberately) worse
@st8linexer
@ExpatAftermath
given their inability to react effectively and in a timely manner they govt definitely did NOT anticipate or forsee this move
It's titled "Ethiopia's Shadow in America" and it's about the "dignified tragedy of the pious man brought to America as a slave"
oh and btw Price was black
oh and btw it was never performed in her lifetime and you are hearing the first symphonic performance done just now in 2021
Average American: I think Hollywood liberals are out-of-touch, undeservedly haughty and self righteous, and deserve to be taken down a peg
J00s: begin foaming at the mouth
PSA: I would like to clarify, I have been corrected
this is Lewtonin's second fallacy. referred to by some as his "bait and switch"
thanks, keep keepin on
the end result is that people are assigning compounds to peaks with maybe 0.1 eV of separation when their reference could have 1 eV of error or more
10x more error than resolution
it's all wrong, in the most misleading possible way
confirmation bias all the way down
they introduce a composer who is being recently re-examined
Florence Price is an American composer born in the late 1800s who just has that "sweet upbeat southern dixie charm" none of that "angst" of the "dour Austro-Germanic [whyte men]"
then they introduce the track and lmao
there was a great thread with numbers from iirc either
