“historically”

Science no longer allowed to discuss the past

This study aims to impove our understanding of longitudinal double-spin asymmetry for inclusive jet and dijet production in polarized proton collisions at √𝑠 =200  GeV

  • Does the TITLE or ABSTRACT contain keywords and context that implicate the EO?
  • Yes
  • Retain flag, DEIA and other EO language found (Category 3)
  • END

This study aims to prove how Trump has historically been treated so unfairly by the news media

biases

statistics and machine learning nerds owned

These people are pathetic. I know they feel big and strong right now because they have a bit of power they can use to go smash shit up. But like they are genuinely, unreservedly, without qualification... Pathetic.

Like it would be hard not to laugh at them if one walked into my house... That and maybe a special treat for them. Simply pathetic

[–] [email protected] 19 points 6 hours ago

I'd like to beat them with a baseball bat, while laughing. Such loserdom.

yeonmi-park "in North Korea, they ban topics from research that go against Kim Jon Un's party line."

One thing that surprises me is that this is all words I would associate with culture war. I would have expected them to ban something like "poverty".

Don’t worry they got ‘socioeconomic’ in there

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 hours ago

so all papers that talk about statistical biases (most papers) are just gone

Seems like "barrier", "status", "polarization", "excluded", and "historically" are gonna hit some unrelated fields

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (1 children)

Almost any of them could hit unrelated fields. "Female" could be referring to female plants.

The flow chart does specify that decisions are made on banned terms AND context, so I guess that's how they'll avoid ~~retracting~~ denying nearly everything.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 hours ago (6 children)

This is for funding grant proposals, so they wouldn't be retracting anything. Doesn't look like they're looking at context at all, based on the flowchart, a proposal with a title like "Effects of colloidal silver on female Cannabis plants" would get rejected in the first step.

"This catalyst can lower the energy barrier for industrially relevant reactions" WOKE

"This increases the polarization of the chemical bond" WOKE

Amerikan right wingers have never given the tiniest fuck if their policies have a disastrous fallout for education and science. Fascists in particular see intellectual impoverishment of the people as an additional benefit, remember German Physics?

I'm honestly surprised this largely sticks to gender studies and research into racism etc., would have expected them to take the axe to climate science as well.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (3 children)

They are doing that one abit more subtly. They can't challenge it directly, as that combats their opinions of themselves as 'scientific' but I am seeing papers coming out of Midwestern ecology schools (which are subsequently pushed hard on social media), that are pushing forward a hypothesis that 'we just don't know enough about the carbon cycle, there are lots of unaccounted carbon creating beings that could be helping with the warming', as well as people saying that because there have been no apocalyptic universal Hollywood spectacal collapse that 'the climate scientists got all their predictions wrong'.

It'll creep into mainstream thought over time, especially as it becomes too late to change.

Can you link one of those? Love to know what I'm up against.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

What do you call the LA wildfires?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago

They aren't 'universal' (other than the studio, yuk yuk) enough, as apocalyptic as they should be. Already seeing people just blaming California state government, and not connecting it to the awful smog and fires coming down from Canada, because memory is basically a month for most.

'we just don't know enough about the carbon cycle, there are lots of unaccounted carbon creating beings that could be helping with the warming',

sounds like eco-genocide...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

They are usually talking about ant-colonies or other micro-ecologies. Tbf, there is likely alot of unaccounted CO2 production from those areas, but there is no way that it comes even close to the amount of CO2 industrial processes (particularly farming) create. It's just throwing chaff and is horseshit, but people want to rationalize it as not our fault, so they will grasp at even bullshit explanation.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

Things like ant colonies haven't increased the amount of atmospheric co2 as well, as the carbon has releases has largely been pulled from the air, whereas the fossil fuel industry involves releasing historically trapped carbon (which did come from the air but a billion years ago), increasing the net co2 in the short term

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

Good explanation, clearly it's horseshit, but that is what I hear being pushed.

Can't wait for all the neuropharmacology studies that are going to get defunded because of the "blood-brain barrier."

How TF did we get out-maneuvered by these literal manchildren?

And the government's priority is literally coddling their feelings.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Easy to outmaneuver us when we ain't maneuvering in the first place. 95% of western leftist movements are dead or controlled opposition.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Because they have political power to translate it into tangential actions. They have it easier anyways.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (2 children)

Small correction imo. They have billionaires literally funding everything they do, which translates into political power. The left, especially in the U.S., have no billionaires on their side, which means that we are without the means of production of political power in this country. The sad part is the Democrats who also have billionaires on their side and are still outmaneuvered, but the stakes are much less for them so they don't really care that much.

Look I haven't received my check in years George.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 hours ago

Yes, it's been years and your checks still don't clear.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 hours ago

The manchildren are sometimes billionaires themselves.

Elon's no girls allowed club of literal teenaged boys running DOGE are taking out their Jordan Peterson inspired rage at the women who wouldn't sleep with them.

Unreal that so many females walk around clothed and unchaperoned these days smdh

Flagging the word “bias” in scientific papers when it is standard to have a subsection listing biases or the lack of…

Fucking morons at the helm. RIP to American science.

[–] [email protected] 64 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

They're not flagging research, they're flagging grant applications they typically don't have bias sections.

Ah I see, well I still stand by my second line
