Is Identity polotics harming the STEM field?
This is not a /pol/ thread, i genuinely believe that anyone (no matter colour or sex (sex because gender is not a scientific term or anything real desu)) can be as smart as me given time and effort.
I'm worried that Identity Politics will harm the meritocracy that acts as the foundation of Natural selection within the work-place (especially STEM); that the push for hiring people based on race or sex, and the political push to censor any scientific revelations that go against what IdPol tells us, will ultimately ruin the only haven left for free thinkers.

>inb4 - righty, /pol/, insert non-seuitur here
non-arguments don't prove anything. i have a centrist bias anyways, i'm more for truth than a political "side"
>inb4 - not relevant to /sci/
very relevant to sci considering it's impact on STEM (both currently, and expected)

That's obviously a problem.
>i genuinely believe that anyone (no matter colour or sex (sex because gender is not a scientific term or anything real desu)) can be as smart as me given time and effort
That's a very unscientific, IdPol-friendly belief.
When you have to pay lip service to the unscientific political ideas that are destroying science even while discussing how those ideas are destroying science you basically know science is over.
Women in stem is a meme anyway. They all end up working in middle manager or adminstrative non stem work anyway.
Hr manager at Google or microshit == women in stem
Women generally don't want to code or do research or cad work deal with it. They simply want to secure high paying sinecure jobs at silicon valley corps that happen to be stem. That's all the screeching is about.

Wew which subreddit did you crawl out of friend

This isn't even an insult. Reddit is unironically better than 4chan now.
>Natural selection within the work-place
There is no "natural" selection in the work place you idiot. The work place exist as a space of vested interest.
By default if a company is looking for specific traits from a candidate 9 times out of 10 said candidate has already went through several socio-economic filters over the span of x years making them "unnatural".

Identity politics harm everything that includes them. Is this not clear?
