Filosoof: “Feministen zien te veel de man als maatstaf.”
Eigen kader: vrouwen = zorgend, mannen = statuscompeterend. Waarom zorg nog steeds minder waard is? Niet haar probleem.
De man blijft het referentiepunt. 🙃
Dat heet geen wetenschap, dat heet conformisme. #feminisme #sciencewashing #rommel

one of the things I love about reading Graeber is that he's constantly taking the piss of people sciencewashing the norms of their particular culture and era as true of all people everywhere

Vaut aussi pour celleux qui effrayés par l'obscurantisme destructeur de Musk-Trump, sont prête.s à s'allier avec les macronistes, à peine moins obscurantistes dans leurs pratiques réelles (il faut voir plus loin que les greenwashing et sciencewashing officiels quand même))
Aux journalistes qui interrogent le gouvernement Macron : vous comptez attendre le 31 décembre 2025 et faire semblant de vous étonner que la France ne respecte pas ses objectifs climatiques ou vous comptez leur demander des comptes avant ?

"our study warns against different forms of #sciencewashing of #greenFinance (GF)

Evidence suggests a gap btwn the suggested possibilities and the actual outcomes of GF. Many products serve financial markets&wealthiest investors more than nature or communities."
