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.
My Maths teacher was Ex Soviet, We learned Lagrangian functions in the same way the Germans learned fear in the winter of 1942.
