Over the past week or so, there have been a couple stories about scientific research studies

that were polled for political reasons. We had one story about rapid onset gender dysphoria

get taken down because of activism. Now there's another story from Kuala'th, about a study on

greater male variability being taken down for political reasons. And a lot of people are saying

that this is because of angry feminists. But I do believe the left and the right can be both

equally anti-science for different reasons. We're tribal. We're going to support data if it

benefits our opinions or our view of the world. And so you'll see people sharing picking data to

suggest they are in fact correct. When in reality most situations are more nuanced and I don't think

any individual has a wide enough view to understand everything. In doing research on these stories,

I found something that I believe to be rather disturbing. Maybe disturbing isn't the right word

because I don't want to get too political. But there are articles from vox.com that essentially

argue there are inherent traits to certain races that may be the case or may not be the case.

And that they do believe that IQ is at least partly heritable. And that may be true. Science may

believe this to be true. But what's shocking to me is that typically I find the left disagrees with

this notion that IQ could be based on race. And it seems like vox is kind of taking that position

but kind of at the same time not. So let's take a look at the story they did and take a look at

this issue of science denial among the left and the right. And I'll just give you some of my

thoughts on the whole situation. In this blog from a reason, it says a mathematics paper two math

journals were mow-mowed into suppressing. Academic discourse is increasingly under threat from activist

professors. According to Professor Ted Hill, Amy Wilkinson, a senior professor of mathematics at

the University of Chicago, launched a successful campaign to get one mathematics journal that had

accepted his paper with draw its acceptance. And a second journal to unpublish the paper
