'Its unscientific conclusions establish the same assumptions that most far leftists make whenever people disagree with their intersectionality politics: they must be white supremacists.' -Briana Oser
Researchers from Oregon State University were appalled at students’ responses to their recent survey about transgender experiences in engineering and computer science. In what the researchers termed “malicious responses,” 15% of the participants humorously rejected the survey. It is doubtful that their meme references and jokes were made out of hatred, but rather to send a message: far-left ideologies have no place in STEM fields, and the notion of standardizing them is ludicrous.
The “study” did not take a step further to prompt the “malicious” respondents about their participation in said online forums and video games. It merely asserted a stereotype, noted the meme references in their responses, and assumed the worst intentions. To the researchers, it did not seem possible that students were giving ridiculous feedback because they found the survey itself to be ridiculous.
Another response they deemed “malicious” was the common response of “attack helicopter” or “airplane” to the “gender” prompt. This was an extremely popular meme in the mid-to-late 2010s. The researchers are correct that the meme mocks transgenderism. But there is no evidence in the data to suggest that respondents are white supremacists or even part of niche “online subcultures.”
