University of Rhode Island and Director of Graduate Studies Erik Loomis recently claimed “science, statistics and technology” are racist.

“Science, statistics, and technology are all inherently racist because they are developed by racists who live in a racist society, whether they identify as racists or not,” Loomis tweeted in reference to a New York Times article.

These woke people calling everything and everyone racist, all they are doing is projecting themselves onto everyone else.


Watch these woke whites act as if they are not racial bigots, and then say the most racist things. You cannot make this **** up.

It is spectacularly clear that this moron has absolutely zero critical thinking skills. He used a blatant and obvious logical fallacy as his primary statement to justify his lunacy. Incredibly embarrassing. Astounding, really. Anyone who used such obvious idiocy in academic circles a hundred years ago would have been laughed completely out of the educational community. The dolt would have been plucking chickens in a soup factory for the rest of his life.

I already assumed that some in academia thought this way.

In away they sort of are, PC/fake/pseudo science, statistics and technology based upon the premise what is foremost bad for their nemesis conservatives, white Americans. Leftist are always accusing others of what the leftists are doing.

You can use a study to come to absolutely any conclusion so when it comes to statistics, I'd say take every study with a grain of salt. People cherrypick studies and turn them into award winning books all the time. The plant based movement is a big one that does it.
