@AndreEggink [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [03]: Discrimination blanche de l'Université Laval. Les Universités deviennent des repaires de CONNERIES #Woke. Où va-t-on désormais concentrer et développer la SAGESSE de la société ???🙄 [URL redacted]
#PolicyAffirmativeActionDiscriminationPositive "Désolé M. Einstein. Nous privilégions seulement les candidatures des femmes, des Autochtones, des persons en situation de handicap et de celles appartenant à des minoritiés visible...[Sorry Mr. Einstein.

This understanding (of the relationship between individuals and the group/collective) reminds me of the discussion by #IRLScientistPoliticalRobertPutnam [Wikipedia] about the supposed breakdown of North American society through an overemphasis on #TheoryIndividualismPossessive, which he explored in his influential paper #1995_BowlingAloneAmericasDecliningSocialCapital - where he explains, that the act of bowling necessitates group engagement - that you simply can't bowl alone.
Addendum this tweet evokes the #MetaphorSpatialMiningFiniteResource, where it makes the assumption that knowledge/intelligence is finite can be objectively measured i.e. as per the logic of #TheoryInstrumentalism. This worldview sits in opposition to more contemporary understanding, which sees that knowledge is cultural contingent i.e. #EpistemologySociallyConstructedKnowledge. So, instead of Albert Einstein's intelligence being solely attributable to his own endeavours as per #TheoryIndividualismCompetitive it would be more correct to say that his intelligence was the product of a combination of factors i.e. his individual efforts (and predispositions) as enabled through the circumstances of his socio-cultural context.
