    Feminist researcher invents ‘intersectional quantum physics’ to fight ‘oppression’

    https://www.thecollegefix.com/post/32830/

    Binary and absolute differences’ are ‘exploitative’

    A feminist academic affiliated with the University of Arizona has invented a new theory of “intersectional quantum physics,” and told the world about it in a journal published by Duke University Press.

    Whitney Stark argues in support of “combining intersectionality and quantum physics” to better understand “marginalized people” and to create “safer spaces” for them, in the latest issue of The Minnesota Review.

    Because traditional quantum physics theory has influenced humanity’s understanding of the world, it has also helped lend credence to the ongoing regime of racism, sexism and classism that hurts minorities, Stark writes in “Assembled Bodies: Reconfiguring Quantum Identities.”

    A researcher in culture and gender studies at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, Stark also holds an appointment in women’s and gender studies at the University of Arizona through its Institute for LGBT Studies.

    She is a member of the Somatechnics Research Network, hosted by UA, whose scholars “reflect on the mutual inextricability of embodiment and technology.”

    Stark identifies Newtonian physics as one of the main culprits behind oppression. “Newtonian physics,” she writes, has “separated beings” based on their “binary and absolute differences.”

    Philipp Lenard and Johannes Stark would approve.

    What's funny is that if the Nazis hadn't been so skeptical of modern science, they might have actually been able to beat us to the atomic bomb.

    Instead, all they had to show for it was their pitiful V-2 rockets which were never more than a minor nuisance.

    Guess all that "Aryan Pride" wasn't superior to Jewish intellect after all.

As of oligarchy so of tyranny, the end is wealth; (for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard or his luxury). Both mistrust the people, and therefore deprive them of their arms." -- Aristotle, Book V, 350 B.C.E

    She might be leading the way to gay nuclear power!

    The Nazis weren't "skeptical" of modern science, they wanted to purge anything connected with JEWISH scientists (for example Einstein's "Energy = Mass X Speed of light Squared" was verboten by "Deutsch Physik".

    The whole idea of "German Physics" is ludicrous. Physics is physics. Facts are facts. They do not differ depending on race, religion or country of origin.

    Talking about "V2 rockets" which were actually called "A4" for "Aggregate Number 4" they were an incredible feat of engineering. Dr. von Braun and the rest invented the large liquid propellant, inertially guided rocket FROM SCRATCH and made it work.

    Their research (and the "Thank God" lucky fact that we got von Braun and the best of his Peenemunde team) got the USA to the moon.

    The "V2" ("Vergeltungswaffe Zwei" or "Vengeance/Reprisal Weapon Two") was a joke as a military weapon, but it was a miracle of engineering and we greatly benefited from all that research (not to mention that the Apollo program and all the bleeding-edge engineering that went into it) made America the world leader in technology, electronics, computers, machinery, process control, manufacturing, etc... too long to list.

    Too bad we are pissing it all away....... can you imagine a Saturn-V made in China?

    That's what's so cool about science. It doesn't matter who comes up with a discovery, we can all benefit and build on it down the road.

    I mean, even our modern jet engines we owe to some of the early pioneering work of the Germans back then.

    So none of it was for naught.
