> highly more advanced biology.

That's the comic version of the "you wouldn't understand it" argument. These morons actually think that something someone made up is gonna override discoveries made centuries ago only because it's more modern... and sadly, that's their approach to everything in life: "no, this movie can't be good because it was made 20 years ago, remake it!".

Basic biology (or basic maths or basic physics or whatever) is still pretty much the same because the core of it was well researched and founded. What we're discovering now it's accessory and complementary. Nobody has discovered a new sex, we still work with the both we have, only we discover new patterns of behavior or whatever. Fucking morons, lol.
When these kinds of people pull out the stock "it's modern science, you're just still thinking of middle school biology," they're either repeating a mantra or referring to social (or "soft") sciences and studies which were peer reviewed by social scientists. I've seen perhaps two or three people throw up a study instead of doing the cop-out "it's not my job to educate you" excuse, and each were social science studies that severely fall apart when cross referenced. Well, when they were actual studies and not blogs or opinion pieces.

You know the Bogdanovs? Yeah, they look funny and are a meme now, but they actually (and debatably unintentionally) made an important point that it's easy get a crap study successfully peer reviewed if you submit it to the right people. There's been multiple fake studies before and since which proved it again, the most notable of which claimed gravity was racist and sexist, written to intentionally test the academic rigor required to have a study published (which he achieved just through including enough difficult-to-understand ideas and buzzwords).

I mean, people got hitlers mein compf published in a peer review journal by replacing jueden with white men. So you know peer reviewed means shit.

Considering the politics of the academics involved, I considered that one "working as designed". Why would you assume they disagree with the ideas outlined there?
 
Wait, what? When did this happen? I gotta see this shit!


It has become a sort of sport among academics to see what level of absolute lunacy can be published in "retard studies" kinds of journals. And yes, Hitler's Mein Kampf is the kind of thing that can be published in them just by making it about whitey.

That's some quality shitposting right there. I'd heard there was a bit of a sport with that, but not that specific example. Which is really dumb, because that's about the greatest goddamned example ever.

The funny thing is the basics would be more valid than the advanced. The advanced science in any area is where things get muddy, conflicted, and weighing unknowns against each other. Basic physics would be about gravity, the advanced stuff speculating on how it might affect time is not "more better" than the shit that is so fundamentally basic and proven we teach it in high school.
