I have just learned that the mob has been successful in getting social scientist Noah Carl fired from his position at Cambridge. The statement from St. Edmund's apologises for the "hurt" caused by his appointment. Read the back-story herehttps://quillette.com/2018/12/07/academics-mobbing-of-a-young-scholar-must-be-denounced/ …

They aren't systematically deterred, though. Plenty of researchers study general intelligence. The specific associations with general intelligence that Carl was studying led to his dismissal.
There are fewer than 500 active intelligence researchers in the world, and fewer than 250 usually attend the International Society for Intelligence Research annual conferences. By contrast, there are tens of thousands of social psychologists. The deterrence is very effective.
