The Trump Brain Drain Has Begun

[HikerGuy83]

Contempt for DEI and related phenomena literally attracts brilliant minds.

Just look at the person who LOST the last presidential race (or acts like she did).

Vast swaths of science are stoked Trump is president again. After all Democrats BAN everything. Imagine all the smart people working in oil, gas, mining, and related industries.

Imagine all the people suffering from conditions that new medicines might alleviate who will have a chance of trying them under the current administration as opposed to the previous one.

These Are the 8 Dumbest Research Studies of 2016 (So Far)

(This post originally appeared on Entrepreneur) Every day there are new studies, surveys and polls. Some are valuable but most are irrelevant, don’t you think? I think so.

Wonder if any of these researchers are on the list.

Imagine all the people suffering from conditions that new medicines might alleviate who will have a chance of trying them under the current administration as opposed to the previous one.

Imagine not being forced to take vaccinations you don't want.

What a horror????????????????

 

[konradv]

Assuming that black and brown people are the only ones who broke the law in coming here.

Why would you assume anything? It kind of confirms racism. Assumptions without facts are a major component.

Imagine all the people suffering from conditions that new medicines might alleviate who will have a chance of trying them under the current administration as opposed to the previous one.

Imagine the CURES that will be found now that hundreds of billions is no longer wasted or worse, stolen by Democrats.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Professional consultation could be helpful.

Professional consultation could be helpful.

Professional consultation is racist.

I am guessing you have a long list of recommendations based on first-hand experience.

Can we get a clue as to what that means?

Is Washington a "best educated" state ?

Seattle: Although not an "autonomous zone". You know....a really educated idea.

The Most and Least Educated States in America, Ranked

Though much debate exists around the education system in the U.S., one thing is for sure: The future of the country lies in our youth, and our ability to educate them.

Well, an advanced education is a product of Satan, so the flock is most likely fine with this.

We don't need educated people here.

You mean indoctrination, if the people were getting a real education. They wouldn't be asking for their college loans to be forgiven.

 

[schmidlap]

I guess I should ask....are you one of them ?

I have high regard for equality, inclusivity, humanitarian programs, public service, higher education, science, medicine, the free press, the arts, and the U.S. Constitution.

So are you looking to leave?

Simple question bro.

Contempt for equality, inclusivity, humanitarian programs, public service, higher education, science, medicine, the free press, the arts, and the U.S. Constitution will now result in a reverse migration. Not as cataclysmic as nuclear physicists' stampeding to the U.S. to escape the rising fanaticism in Europe in the 1930s, but, quite likely, the imminent expatriation will be every bit as corrosive over the coming years.

America was great when it attracted the best and the brightest. Now, it repels them.

Some like it that way, of course.

A French university courting U.S.-based academics said it has already received nearly 300 applications for researchers seeking "refugee status" amid President Trump's elimination of funding for several scientific programs.​

​

Last month, Aix-Marseille University, one of the country's oldest and largest universities, announced it was accepting applications for its Safe Place For Science program, which it said offers "a safe and stimulating environment for scientists wishing to pursue their research in complete freedom."​

​

This week, Aix-Marseille said it had received 298 applications, and 242 of them are eligible and currently up for review. Of the eligible applicants, 135 are American...​

And, of course, the U.S. is becoming a place that the best and brightest from elsewhere will no longer want to contribute to.
Is the self-inflicted, inbred decline inexorable?

Lol, the federal goverment school system is educating our youth so well. A good portion of them can't read after graduating.

It's too late for me. Were I again in school or beginning my career, the nation's current devolution would make me seriously consider it, of course.

Imagine the mental picture these people must have of scientists and colleges. I'll bet it's like a Picasso painting, completely wild and bizarre.

My youngest daughter is a scientist (microbiologist) and says she never ran into the stuff they're always talking about at her university, and the college she went to has a reputation as pretty Left.

But it's what they're told, then they hyperbolize it by a factor of 50 (as with everything else), and he we are with a brain drain.

Irrational anger, resentment, demonization, and hatred is being substituted for knowledge predicated upon objective, empirical data and irrefutable fact.

The blowhard spews the utterly inane, and frenzied, bobblehead whiplash ensues.
