@houmanhemmati @shaunmmaguire Seems like there would be a way to statistically check whether they plausibly collected actual signatures. If these locations cannot successfully locate some set of people on their lists upon request, and this # is not in the same ballpark as the # of unsubmitted ballots...

@DoctorVive That's an underspecified question because equality has many meanings. The desire to import your specific conception of equality into other fields is exactly the problem.

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@DanielleFong @minordissent Do you think any articulable desires for oneself should be permissible or encouraged? eg. where do you stand on euthanasia for ANY reason, or allowing people with body integrity dysphoria to disable themselves?

@Jairo_I_Funez > it ideologically aligns with the political attacks on higher education

You're assuming those political criticisms are not well motivated. If they are well motivated, then this alignment is just more evidence that academia has huge blind spots.

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@peterrhague This academic obsession with their conception of justice has proven to be very corrosive.

@DanielleFong @minordissent Do you believe there can be a reliable biological test to check whether someone is transgender, at least in principle?

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@DissentFu You wasted more time writing 30 responses like this than if you had actually posted the evidence even once in the thread. You're clearly just here to waste people's time with nonsense.

@jameskeyfur @Aella_Girl That R word is heavily censored and policed.

@keithdorejel Woke scholars are typically open activists. The administrators only implemented many such policies after pressure from the woke scholars.

@DDFStrand Critical theory was present in law and philosophy back in the 1980s. It fostered the political correctness movement of the 1990s. It gets worse every time the cycle repeats.

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@DissentFu I checked the thread, and it's a bunch of your posts saying it's in the thread, without any source actually provided in the thread.

@VividThoughts_1 @GBPolitcs Assault on anyone should never sit at the bottom of any pile. That racism may be involved should be completely immaterial, motives for assault can be both worse and milder than racism, so it's a red herring. The assault is the part that requires urgent attention.

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@simonsarris Indeed, education is literally a solved problem. Instead they continue wasting time with refuted ideas like learning styles.

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@ArtemisConsort The only theory that fits all the data: variety of choices. When we were all farmers, your only choices were to be a farmer, butcher, maybe priest. Now everyone has limitless choices, and as choices multiplied, those choosing to be parents fell, which would happen even by chance.

@jgo34 > supposedly unscientific studies on issues the right doesn’t like

What are the replication rates in the social sciences again?

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@uranoutofluck @lizisamused And plenty of women also watch porn, what's your point?

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@jess_ann_pin Sorry, that's ridiculous. Life is full of scenarios where you have the option to take a calculated risk because the truth can't ultimately be known. Making a choice you end up regretting doesn't retroactively remove your autonomy to take or forego that risk.

@CJohnCC @MartinJDowns @michaelpforan If people's safety is bring threatened, of course turnout would be low.

[Sandro Magi @naasking]

@itaisher @sndurlauf Further left than people as a whole is not really the argument. The walled-garden that insulates it from challenge is a problem, & even if that weren't the case, the bias from having 98% of a field be one political persuasion necessarily skews results, even with good intentions.
