It is completely inexcusable that people in STEM fields are so reactionary, considering how capitalism utterly destroys science.
If universities were actually "left wing indoctrination factories" like the right thinks they are, every STEM grad would be taught, for example, what Kropotkin had to say about innovation.
Can confirm.
I once tried studying SM in the Engineering building. Bastards confiscated all my whips and ball gags.
