In their competition to discover species, Marsh and Cope's crews engaged in physical combat over dig sites. Why don't scientists engage each other more in high-to-hand combat?
>>17085053Because of “Yay women in science!”If we never let women into science then we could still have this. “You want beamline time at SLAC? I challenge you to a duel!” would still be a thing except for the fact that we totally restructured and inverted science so that it would be friendly to women. The woman lobby is like the biggest lobby imaginable and they have totally turned every institution on its head so that “toxic masculinity” is the worst thing ever; cheating and plagiarizing and fabricating results is nothing compared to microagressions
Tao vs Altman could be entertaining
>>17085053Thats cute, but species is a bigoted and white explanation founded on his immorale belief to have dominion over things and their names. Species are only relative definitions decided on by the pluralities of opinion. You wouldnt get it(because you are white) and so these uppity scientists died in just as meaningless manner as any gun duel or species definition.
