I think one of my recurring questions re: the BLM stuff, is that support for what's going on is obviously coming from some deep lack of interest in truth or rigorous analysis. Is this a new thing, or has it always been there and is now just showing up?

Would encourage disentanging or clarifying the (narrow) claim that some BLM-adjacent initiatives appear anti-intellectual/anti-rigor from (broader) claim that support from BLM comes from a place of anti-rigor -- if I am understanding your position accurately

I do think the majority of BLM claims come from anti rigor.

Probably more, even if they don't really agree with that.

Mmm, I've been to four or five protests myself and I have a different view of the median protestor. While there is a small and real anti science/anti academic segment of activists, don't credit them more power than they have.
