I wonder what the organizers of @improvingpsych think of this?
"How much hostility did I receive when I mentioned the accuracy of gender stereotypes or researchers ignoring evidence contesting left narratives, and the like? None."

I’m also curious what the SIPS organisers thing. I read the piece as a right wing hijack of the point of a code of conduct to advance political aims.

The third in this list is very problematic (as you said!) but the other two are great examples of the fact that EVERYONE benefits from codes of conduct and inclusive norms: even the people in power who don’t want to hear rude criticisms of their choices as jokes in talks!!pic.twitter.com/YhpbxuCQuB

TBF though, mocking the alt-right is fine with me.

Yes. And necessary. But there are a lot of “easy jokes” at conferences (mostly as a function of gender or about sex) that should be much better considered than they are. If some of the lazy jokes about Trump go alongside all the pictures of naked women that’s fine by me!

And if someone wanted to replace their Trump/Brexit joke with a slide stating how damaging these policies are for themselves, their lab, their funding, science as an endeavour that would be AWESOME

Oh, yes, by all means dump Trump jokes. Nobody wants to be reminded of that destructive and awful and powerful loser.
