A geography professor at a leading British university has described the study of rocks and the natural world as racist and linked the academic field to 'white supremacy'.

Kathryn Yusoff, who lectures at the prestigious Queen Mary University of London, said that the geology as a subject was 'riven by systematic racism' and influenced heavily by colonialism.

The study of prehistoric life through fossils was also branded as an enabler for racism, with the professor referring to the field of palaeontology as 'pale-ontology'.

Curiosity is a sign of an active intelligence and is the first thing I look for in a candidate.

The study of snow is also racist!

Kinda reminds me of Ernie from My Three Sons.

It is because of idiots like this infecting our academic system that Gen Z and other young males voted for Trump

Just another race hustling con artist, like Obeyme and Reverend Not so Sharpton.

The professor is obviously not current. As the Uncyclopedia explains, geologists are not racist, but rather, "geologists are in fact the world's first alcohol-based life form... the phrase 'I am not an alcoholic, I am a geologist' has become quite common within many student bodies to explain their metamorphing from a carbon-based life form to an alcohol-based one..."

;^)

I’m coming to the conclusion that studying in general is racist.

If you know something about geology, you know that climate is dynamic and that we are currently in a general warming trend and there’s nothing we can do about it (and it’s not our “fault” either).

Hence, the exposure of the hoax intended to create more socialist government and totalitarian power is exposed.

So it’s no surprise that a leftist resorts to these kinds of insults when confronted with that reality.
