DEI and Science

At the heart of scientific progress lies the pursuit of truth. But this foundational principle, which has driven every major breakthrough in our history, is increasingly under threat. Today, across science, medicine, and technology, ideological dogmas have surfaced that elevate group identity above individual achievement, enforce conformity at the expense of innovative ideas, and inject politics into the heart of the scientific method. These agendas have not only distorted truth but have eroded public trust, undermined the integrity of research, stifled innovation, and weakened America’s competitive edge.
Let us hope the labs get the notice.

Wait, at least at some point in the past there was "conformity" and "group identity" in actively excluding women, minorities and LGBTQ. This was also a bad thing, although there is less of it now it still goes on, and it would be bad to go back to that.
"his was also a bad thing, although there is less of it now it still goes on"
There is no evidence that it "still goes on". All the data show the opposite in in fact.
2:40 -- I agree with you, but why scapegoat various groups?
"but why scapegoat various groups?"
Which groups are actively being discriminated against or scapegoated , in a provable fashion?
Think about that. I is completely opposite of the popular narrative.
