Sometimes you go far enough into a way of thinking to decide it is not worthwhile. If then anyone who has decided it is and spent years studying it can claim authority on whether it is worthwhile or not, everything is. Homeopathy. Astrology.

I know a few pomos and they'd describe themselves as realists about science. Ie. they want to address systemic flaws in how the scientific method is applied. Even the perfectest method still is used by humans, after all. Not wallowing but acknowledging and moving on from there.

Good. That's precisely what scientists try to do. I don't know anything other system that works by trying to find more ways to prove itself wrong. I don't know Pomos who appreciate this. They usually complain it's dominated by white White men & so bound to be wrong.
-
I'm sure there are people out there whose complaints are limited to that. But there are others who make valids points about how errors from unconsidered assumptions can lead to bad conclusions. Ie. if you take white male to be the baseline you'll get weird results.

I'd certainly not complain about someone testing this. Showing the assumption to exist among some people abs comparing the results of their work to a group who don't think this.

Pomos should learn to bayesian update their ideas.
