Post <blockquote>Senior graduate student here. I've been doing this for about 10 years (including undergrad). I always felt lucky to have good mentorship in undergrad who presented Sociology as a way to put society into a coherent set of theories and gave me the opportunity to understand the joys and follies of doing original research. After this years Twitter debacles I can't see a future for this discipline. It saddens me that for the rest of my life I might have to explain to anybody who actually has heard of what I do, that people like CF, TMC, SD, Buggs, Grollbaby, and Costen are not the gatekeepers of good work in this field. Even worse is the fact that I genuinely fear for my ability to do decent, unbiased research due to the structural outcomes of asinine pushes for citations based on skin color as opposed to research merit. The reality that my ability to publish might be stymied by people looking at my reference list and rejecting papers because bias hasn't been duly demonstrated is frightening and anti-scientific. The worst part is, I see more sympathizers with these ideas in my own program then people evaluating these ideas and while remaining sympathetic, rejecting them. Scary times ahead.</blockquote>
