I wish I had not resigned from @APA in 2021 so that I could resign now.
This petition lays out the capture of APA by the oppressor/victim mindset, which is bad for psychologists, their research, their patients, and the country. I signed.

@jacktodd46 @carolmswain Professor Swain, inadvertently or otherwise, has found herself in the midst of the Harvard president debacle. I think it's good to know where everyone in a debate is coming from.
Why do some colleges and universities have mandatory #DEI statements? I’m glad you asked.
Mandatory DEI statements help liberals weed the pool of applicants to exclude conservatives and anyone else who believes in a meritocratic system. Once hired universities have a myriad of ways of punishing anyone who questions the status quo.
Universities have a “systemic bias” that ensures that defectors will pay a high cost for questioning the biases.
Administrators have ave the ability to make one’s life miserable by withholding raises, issuing denunciation statements, and labeling defectors as the weakest link.
Professors often steer students to preferred professors and stir unrest among students to maintain control.

@Katja_Thieme Hyperbole much! Pinker and Haidt are examples of the common sense academics that will rescue the academy from the nonsense of the past decade.
@Bish03@CarymaRules I'm an immigrant. My view on immigrants: once Canada has welcomed you generously, leave the squabbles of your homeland behind you. Or go back and continue your sandbox fights there.
@tinamichelehaze @Red_eyedjedi@KeneAkers I don't know about Eurocentrism, but I'd rather not be judged by any cultural collective (I don't deny such a thing exists) but rather by what I've done with it to create my individuality. Please don't judge me by my culture.
@tinamichelehaze @Red_eyedjedi@KeneAkers You see, as individuals we can communicate. You just started to. There's no need to talk about "us"; just you alone. Now, are you interested in my story? I too have a unique culture and history.
