Scott Aaronson is considering joining a group supporting a diversity of views in academia, but backed out because he believes that if someone like Donald Trump were elected, "I'd hope that American academia would speak with one voice".
Okay, he obvious does not favor a diversity of views, and does not even want representation of the electoral majority that voted for Trump.
Our world will always be sexist. It is human nature. Only in academia can you find ppl striving for a non-sexist world.
It is odd to hear a science magazine writer complain that "biological theorizing ... does more harm than good." When we only allow certain theorizing that supports certain political views, then we get bogus theories. In this case, he only wants anti-sexism and anti-patriarchy theories.
It is amusing to read Scott's comments, where he agrees with the academic leftists 98%. But Ken Miller jumps on his for disagreeing with white genocide. That is, Scott says that a leftist professor deserves to be criticized if he advocates white genocide.
