I'm not quite ready to give race-IQ linkage research that honorary designation.

You don’t get to exclude it because it doesn’t fit the narrative. It was science for decades before people challenged it.

"Science" is a method and a system not a proposition.

If you want to define science as “the infallible *method* or principle leading to a systematically organized body of knowledge,” I won’t argue against that. I agree science is largely our best method of inquiry...for many things.

And I never said it was infallible, thanks.

If its methods aren’t subject to critique, if it is impossible for it to have bias...same difference. I know you didn’t say that. That was my suggestion of how the discussion of bias tends to be framed, hence the “if you want,” not “since you said.”

The scientific method isn't being refined by identity studies. It's being thrown out and replaced with subjective nonsense with very little to no rigor.

Yes, if the analysis which has shown science to be wrong has not actually shown it to be wrong with evidence, it hasn't shown science to be wrong. If it is "But it was developed by white men w/out the help of female experience...no.

A criticism that “it didn’t take women’s experience into account” would have still been good, but too often criticism jumped straight to “it was done by white male (so must automatically be discarded/discounted/dismissed)”. Excuse me? How about no?

Depending on what it is, yes. So many of the objects of science exist independently of anyone's experiences and there is a tendency to see science as white men expressing their experiences which needs to be countered by non-science in the form of experiences. Which is crazy.

Yep, my mind jumped to medical science where women’s experience hasn’t been as extensively studied as it should be; but things like cosmic rays or whatever don’t even have any aspect of anyone’s “experience”, it’d make even less sense to bring that up.

Yeah, people also draw a categorical line between natural phenomena and subjective experience and that's simply wrong imo. Brains are natural phenomena and so are their experiential components. The fact we can't access them directly yet doesn't change that.
