Yes, I think so too. And I think that to Dawkins, he is supporting real science while his opponents in this debate are making up something sciencey-sounding.
Your mind-reading act sucks. Dawkins is an evolutionary biologist and has absolutely no excuse for not understanding the difference between chromosomes and identity.
Quote:This is why Coyne, et.al., compare "wokism" to a religion.
Woke is nothing more than an umbrella term used by the far right to lump together everything that they hate. It conveniently covers gender, sexuality, worldview, environment, economics, and political outlook as a whole. It was concocted as the simplest dog whistle possible for people who think in monosyllables because even their spin doctors realized that a "pro-asshole" platform wouldn't fly.
Quote:As you know, scientific claims are supposed to be empirical, repeatedly testable, and quantifiable.
Yeah, what a shame that the APA doesn't use empiricism. I can't be arsed to respond to the rest of your shameless misidentification of what is and isn't testable except to say that everything else that you said fails from that single point. Now kindly go find a talented proctologist with a solid enough crowbar to dislodge your head.
