The first lesson in an animal science course:

@omni_american @sciam For the right, most topics are related (origin of life and evolution), but for things like second hand smoke and climate change read the history of the heartland institute think tank for an example of right wing suppression and abuse of facts

@omni_american @sciam For Iq testing read Freddie deboer “like the validity of intelligence testing”, lee jussim on cognitive science of prejudice and critique on iat, and Colin wright on biological sex on his reality’s last stand substack

Between 1990 and 2015, it appeared to me that all science-denial was coming from the right. Now it seems to come disproportionately from the left and its institutions, like @sciam. Can y'all provide other examples of leftwing science-denial? Links/screenshots appreciated!

@omni_american @sciam Left: Nuclear energy (anti nuclear movement) Sociobiology IQ testing (aptitude tests in gen) Affirmation of mental health (psychology) Cognitive science of prejudice and discrimination (ex iat) Biological sex differences Heritability of genetics

@omni_american @sciam I do a lot of research on this in general, this list includes topics of denial and broad assumptions without empirical evidence to back it up: Right: Climate change Evolutionary biology Cosmology Origin of life Pollution Smoking (second hand) Stem cell research

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #MyTwitterAnniversary

@Rhetors_of_York Gotta tell you man, I felt like I have been losing my mind like, “I can’t be the only one who sees that’s not what they are doing?”. It was nice to see that I wasn’t the only one who believed this, thanks for making me believe I wasn’t crazy.

None of these seem to prohibit the actual teaching of race in American history. I am asking with the utmost humility: Am I missing something? The last thing I want to do is inadvertently back the banning of accurate history.

This is a perplexing issue. In Oklahoma, people are up in arms because they insist that teaching about the history of racism is being banned by the school board, but being anti-CRT and being anti-accurate history are not the same things. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…
