Scientific research papers are required the same. Had a person I knew stopped 5 minutes into their PhD defense presentation by a committee member asking “Stop. Just tell me what advancement or benefit to scientific knowledge or society does your research being?” When the student couldn’t answer, the committee member just said stop and do this another day.
Holy shite this is brutal

Oh it was. Worst part is that committee member is like the nicest and easy going guy on earth. The student was defending without even ever submitting a publication to a journal. Not a single one. The lab tried to get them kicked out for being incompetent. Said student then made false claims, so they got “graduated” to be done with them.
Was a hell of an experience to be around that.

She makes me think of Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
(My apologies to Tim Curry, who is actually a good actor and a decent person.)

This is not the kind of digging through that steals from the earth in ways that might be reminiscent of white settlers’ obsession with archaeological hole-making.

She’s admitting to selectively dismissing real history that doesn’t fit her agenda, and then replacing it with her own fantasy.
American history: The only thing that matters is plantations. They are why America is bad, and their impact still defines modern America.

Yep. She might be kin to Rachel Dolezal.
