Comments to Steve Sailer about the Tim Hunt fiasco:
* In modern Western society every white male needs to consider his words very carefully before speaking them. He needs to be at least as cautious as a new stand-up comedian trying out new material in the Comedy Club in Kobani with a room full of ISIS militants.
* You didn’t mention his accuser’s creativity in drafting her CV. Her stated academic qualifications and work record are in doubt. But she has nothing to worry about – the university that employs her is not going to sack her. They say they will “help her update her CV”. Another Nobel Prize winner, Sir Andre Geim, predicted that. He said: “No Vice Chancellor would take on an ethnic-minority militant feminist. Those are not humble Nobel laureates who can be forced to resign quietly.”
* I am a nerdy type, but I also grew up in South Africa. So I have both personal (violent) experiences and like reading history and like to look at things like rankings of countries in various things. For me the people that deny race exists is probably as bizarre as it is for those internet atheists that like going after creationists. The difference however between those race denialists and creationists is obvious, the global system is now dominated by the race denialists (and the harm they are causing is immense), what great harm the creationists are doing I have yet to find out.
