Note that this is an opinion piece. The WSJ does not make its flamebait editorial section look especially different from its excellent reporting section.

This piece is truly brimming with trigger words. There is just no way that a productive discussion could come from it.

Id actually like to see meaningful discussion over the controversy...

The USSR had and Russia has great women scientists despite the unwokeness (and to use a worn overwrought cliche patriarchal society) so I think it’s not needed. But you do need programs to seed scientists starting from elementary school. Propaganda helps (do it for mother ... the country needs you now)

The author isn't even a scientist.
