hilarious thread about biology denialism at @UniKent. I noted in a previous tweet that there's been a sharp decline in SJ cocoa-puffery in recent days. yet there still remains a hardcore contingent that can't afford to give up, since theyre years deep into PhDs about their navels https://twitter.com/sarahstuartxx/status/1251524760665800705

there's a good essay to be written about how the PhD system locks in cults & ideological fads. Biological sex denialism peaked in 2018-19. But blue-haired dudes who embraced pronounology wont finish their theses till 2025. I.e cycle time of campus cultism is now << PhD cycle time
