That link is a great example of why gender studies degrees aren't worth the paper they're printed on, goddamn. They're not doing science, they're zealots pushing for a new religion to infect science just like creationists of old 🤦

...Your quote is about changing the culture of a workplace to increase the number of scientists, and their happiness with their job.
What's the problem with that? Why is that not worthwhile to have more scientists?
Should we also make science more Christian-inclusive? Avoid teaching things that are offensive to them? That would surely increase the number of scientists.
No, because that would be silly. Science doesn't care how you identify. Put up or shut up
Yes, being more inclusive is always good.
No, but nobody said we should do that, so, what's your point?
We aren't increasing it at all costs, we're just finding ways to increase it by being kind to one another.
Yeah, that would be silly... but nobody is arguing for it and this is entirely a strawman.
Humans do science, humans should care.
