a distinction almost always exists between what one legitimately, sincerely believes, and what topics are in vogue for publication such that the graduate student can fulfill their graduation requirements and get out of grad school hell.

i very much doubt that even the author believes such an intersectional quantum physics is possible or will ever be created or even attempted - but suggesting it and using modern feminist theory to explain their proposal demonstrates enough expertise in their field to get a diploma

A tabloid reporting about an article in a poetry/fiction/opinion magazine. Come the fuck on.

Thats why they don't get to have the same opportunity or paygrade after grad school.

I thought like you, but I read "Fashionable Nonsense" and now I'm not sure anymore.

It won't be taken seriously and I doubt the majority of feminists would support it.

If it is taken seriously by western scientists too cowardly to challenge something obiously irrational just because a random person claims it is "feminist" then the rest of the world won't give a shit. You could happily correspond with Chinese, Indian and Turkish scientists and never hear of it.

All feminist theory. No science.

I've never considered the connection between how some things are absolute and binary, and how this is a problem for my gender. Perhaps it's like how our maps are wrong because they are north-up and that places the first world at the "top" and the oppressed world at the "bottom". Honestly, it makes a lot of sense, because before we had maps, nobody thought that our mindset and how we look at things affected the situation on the southern hemisphere. Actually, just thinking of maps, the notion of hemispheres is discrimination. Either you are south, or you are north. What if you want to be, say the N20°-N24° hemisphere? Thanks to the binary thinking of mathematicians and cartographers, society will tell you that this is impossible and wrong. I'm tired of the earth being divided into things that are or isn't.

We already have a mashup of quantum physics and Buddhism so someone thinking the could do the same with feminism isn't very surprising.

This is why I hate it when (((they))) make documentaries about physics/maths targeted at lower tier normies.

Sadly, no matter how hard you work for your degree, there is an entire department of slack jaw idiots handing out diplomas with the name of your school on them to useless morons.

This actually looks like it would be an interesting read if it doesn't try to explain "chakras" and related bullshit in terms of science

Y-yeah, but this is just a meme, outside 3 people no one is actually gonna research this, it's gonna die out, just like feminist biology.
