I was explaining the problem I was having the RadMentalHealth thread. Not you personally. Sorry, I should have made that clear.

'Please quote me'

I have one thread in the RadMentalHealth.

I won't post again until I figure out if I can coexist.

Mental health is connected to feminism, civil-rights and community organizing. So my experience in this mental health forum is related to those issues.

These guys are saying what I'm saying, which is across many disciplines, is "Scientism'.

That is basically anti-science, which is completely off-the wall when it comes to working in real life education and social science.

On facebook I needed to separate myself from the anti-science people, who disrupt any community-based feminism and anti-racism.

That's a thing.

You can easily coexist by not insulting everyone that has an opinion that differs from your own and accusing them of being bigots for being anarchists.

Being critical of scientism doesn't make someone anti-science. It makes them anti-scientism.

Dictionary:

Scientism describes (for example) the dogmatic endorsement of scientific methodology and the reduction of all knowledge to only that which is measured or confirmatory.

Science and scientism are 2 wholly different words.
