Imagine using shitty evidence to argue the standards in sociology have lowered because of its "politicization." That's exactly what Ashley Rubin did.
Funny how sociology is "too political" but Rubin's weak claims are devoid of politics entirely 🙄.

"If Rubin were actually sincere about not having sufficient evidence to make sweeping claims about the discipline, then she would not make such sweeping claims about the discipline. Yet she does. Over and over again." @juliango.bsky.social on the U Chicago responses to the Rubin report on sociology.

Indeed, we found evidence of this – TG-PAC within this ROI increased with degree of change to the linguistically-evoked object. This suggests its functional role in maintaining the object in a way that is, interestingly, sensitive to (dis)similarity among that object’s states.

lots of ways you could improve this simulation since there's so many variables (gas price pressure like simulating price shocks, fuel consumption, etc)
