today in insane anti-intellectualism: I just saw a post about how aspiring healthcare practitioners shouldn't take classes in biology and chemistry because those subjects are useless and bad. ????
#the op was like “they should have to study literature and the human condition like ME”
#and it's like. hmmmm. I can understand where you're coming from here buddy but maybe think for a hot second
#about why aspiring doctors have to take biology 101 before they can jump right into microbial genetics and viral pathogenesis or whatever
#like. these classes build on each other. you absolutely need a basic understanding of college-level bio and chem before you can do anything
#as someone who is very passionate about both science and writing
#(I am getting a degree in microbiology and medical HUMANITIES. because I LIKE HUMANITIES)
#I hate the rhetoric that certain STEM subjects are lame boring loser classes for closed-minded idiots who can't see the beauty in the world
#there is so much beauty in biology and chemistry and physics! the universe is so big and weird and fascinating
#but you'll never see that if you have the mentality that YOUR favorite subjects are the Only Ones That Matter Ever
#for the record (as someone who's taken a lot of STEM and humanities classes recently) both STEM and humanities majors do this
#and it's obnoxious no matter where it's coming from
