She's talking about viewing things as absolute, and predetermined, which is a Newtonian thing. Most quantum physics will only give you the probability of an outcome, not a certain result.
Found the whole text. Holy shit this is gold, if you can stand the cancer you get little gems like
cyborgian posthumanism
quantum feminisms.
"The demarcation of theory as abstract follows a Cartesian mind/body duality, in which white men are considered the bearers of bodyless reason and"
less privileged positions are considered bodily controlled
SHit you not, I had a prof in college say that all buildings were representations of the patriarchy because they resembled phalluses and that to further gender equality, we should pass laws requiring buildings to be constructed in the shape of a vulva in the ground.
Normally I'd ree about this but really anything a feminist has to say about physics falls in deaf ears because physicists are far above feminists. It's too important for anyone to care what gender studies thinks here.
you literally linked a summary of a blog post. there's no drama here. it's not developing. there's nothing. take this inane bullshit back to KIA or something.
To think someone spent 4 years and a bunch of money so they could obtain the knowledge to write something like this. And to think we assume the West is superior to the middle east.
This is where the threat within feminist new materialisms gathers, as it works specifically to obstruct the abstract/material binary through (re)cognizing that which is considered metaphysical as also having mat(t)er(ial), agential intra-action.
It's an odd world where learned professors will be reading those same words and nodding along in appreciation.

Did you just assume zieir gender?

Where does it talk about Newtonian physics? Are you retarded?

Sorry just assumed you didn't know what you were talking about, most people who mention physics don't

It's true.

Hey u/drunkentune, you are an expert in bullshit philosohy. Explain this.
n/a drunkentune 2017-05-31
You can't spell 'philosophy'.
n/a ProfessedBug 2017-05-31
Crap.
n/a drunkentune 2017-05-31
Explain this.

I'm not too acquainted with the terms they are using, so to me this reads like a social justice version of the Time Cube.

Hint: it is
n/a Wraith_GraveSpell 2017-05-31
Is this just the abstract? Is there a full version out there or is it not finished yet?
n/a Xx_S1L3NT_LYR1T_xX 2017-05-31
The full version is linked on the right. I cbf to dig for a mirror.

Thank you from the base of my metaphorical phallus. This is on the level of that "penis is a social construct" hoax, but real.

That's some Freudian shit

that is some impressive word salad. I don't think I could reach this level of bullshit with a year and a grant.

One of the physics professors at U of T is a genderliquid and uses it to explain quantum mechanics:

He also said that Jordan Peterson refusing to use hemidemigender pronouns was abusive

There's always one weirdo.

Your face is a hemidemigender

It's U of T, though, they're turning into the Evergreen of Canada.

This is why I don't give money to Duke when they call.

Pretty sure this is a meme journal, they also published an article last week about intersectional quantum mechanics.
