Re: Wokeness (And Women?) Have Ruined SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
I gave up on SA a long time ago due to articles that promoted Leftist ideas. As far as I am concerned, this is just the endgame.

Re: Wokeness (And Women?) Have Ruined SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
It will then have a shrinking target audience as its audience becomes merely people of ideology and the measured facts be damned. Real scientists, after a time will not be making articles not for peers, but instead ideologists who will reject anything non-conforming.
Example is discussing physics when the readers wish to discuss socialism and who to murder?

Re: Wokeness (And Women?) Have Ruined SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
The reason for this is because the PUBLISHING industry is run by a similar CONTROL GROUP that runs the MPAA Studios and the TV Networks.
Read an article by John W. Cones, Esq. entitled "Something’s Rotten in the Big Apple -- The Inside Story of a NY Publisher’s Use of the Anti-Semitic Sword" Such at
http://www.filmreform.org/rotten2.htm
I guarantee if you read this article carefully you will gain a very interesting insight into the publishing business -- an industry that is probably infecting the publication of even revered magazines like Scientific American.

Re: Wokeness (And Women?) Have Ruined SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
"A publisher has an obligation to be fair and honest in its dealings with its authors. It is noteworthy when an established publisher like Peter Lang Publishing of New York fails to meet that standard. Peter Lang employees leveled serious but false allegations of biased (anti-Semitic) writing against me (one of their contracted authors), failed to back that false allegation with any credible evidence or discussion, then used the threat of non-publication of the book as an unethical attempt to intimidate the author into caving into their unreasonable and irrational demands.
"I have challenged these Peter Lang employees to demonstrate that any statement I’ve made is false. They have not even responded to that specific challenge. At its core, the rather bizarre Peter Lang threat and argument is: “We are going to refuse publication of this book because we mistakenly believe this author is saying something that he is not saying.” -- John W. Cones

Re: Wokeness (And Women?) Have Ruined SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
Good luck to Cones with that slanderous attack on him.
Any and all fixtures in our culture will be targeted to be torn down by these Orc analogues. I used to read both this and the mag Science each weekend at the library as a kid, among other periodical reading there.
Later, as many of us saw directly, or read of, the SJW takeover of this or that Soft Science Dept at this or that University in some "Crazy Campus" article, I read of and was relieved by the idea of the Hard Sciences being invulnerable to the Lefty nonsense in academia.
Now, of course, it has metastasized out into so much in American society - taking down this fine mag in the process.
If our Country survives this, it will mean some success in taking these companies and Universities over and cleaning these orgs of Leftism. How? Just as with Polio - someone will become famous for figuring this out, if he can do so in time.
Hopefully, someone will come up with better ways than were used in Greece and Chile during the bad old, good old days of the Cold War.

Women need to stay in the kitchen ... not in the lab.
