The researchers, aiming to understand the experiences of transgender and\u200b gender \u2064nonconforming students in engineering\u2062 and\u200b computer science programs, were met with \u200caccusations of fascism.<\/p>\n<h3>Unveiling Malicious Responses<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">In their paper titled &#8220;Attack Helicopters and White Supremacy: Interpreting Malicious Responses to \u200ban\u2062 Online\u2064 Questionnaire about Transgender Undergraduate Engineering and Computer Science Student Experiences,&#8221; the researchers \u2064delve\u200b into the malicious responses they encountered. Their goal was to analyze these responses within the\u200b context of engineering culture and the \u2063rise of \u200donline fascism.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The researchers, acknowledging their leftist\u200b perspective, highlight the \u2064societal events\u2064 that influenced their work, including\u2062 the COVID-19 \u2063crisis, the spread of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/youtube-suspends-demonetizes-one-america-news-network\/\" title=\"YouTube Suspends, Demonetizes One America News Network\">conspiracy theories<\/a> like QAnon, the\u2064 January 6th insurrection, and legislative \u200battacks on transgender rights. They emphasize the need to understand these responses in relation to larger social contexts.<\/p>\n<h3>Challenging Perceptions<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The researchers discovered that many respondents mentioned diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts, as well as \u200daffirmative action. \u200dThey noted that some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/report-gretchen-whitmer-held-california-fundraisers-as-michigan-led-u-s-in-coronavirus-cases\/\" title=\"Report: Gretchen Whitmer Held California Fundraisers as Michigan Led U.S. in Coronavirus Cases\">respondents viewed<\/a> these \u200bprograms\u2064 as contradictory to the concept of meritocracy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of particular concern to the researchers\u2064 were\u200b responses referencing \u200b&#8221;Apache \u2062Attack \u2064Helicopters.&#8221; \u2063They explain that associating one&#8217;s gender with an attack helicopter is\u200d a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/apache-attack-helicopter-leftist-researchers-accuse-students-of-fascism-hostile-language-toward-transgenders\/\" title=\"Leftist researchers accuse students of fascism, hostile language towards transgenders in 'Apache Attack Helicopter' context.\">common anti-trans discourse online<\/a>, \u200dand it \u2063<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/why-handwritten-fbi-and-doj-notes-the-special-counsel-just-released-are-huge\/\" title=\"Why Handwritten FBI And DOJ Notes The Special Counsel Just Released Are Huge\">appeared multiple times<\/a> in\u200c the data they collected.<\/p>\n<h3>Confronting Conspiracy \u2063Theories<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The researchers firmly state that their \u200danalysis serves as a rebuke to conspiracy theories and misinformation. They\u200d argue that these theories not only influenced their research but also played a role in the\u200b January 6th Capitol insurrection.<\/p>\n<h3>Voices from the Survey<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>&#8220;While \u2062I of course do\u2062 not \u200bcondone\u200b bullying or discrimination, \u2064I wish people\u2064 in universities\u200b (especially the faculty) would not focus\u2063 so much on gender and identity. \u2064That doesn\u2019t matter. Just let people do their thing and teach them how to do Gauss eliminations and whatnot.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em>&#8220;Please do some research on\u2063 something that will actually benefit the human race. \u200bThis notion that these quacks are normal is crazy. Honestly, they make engineering courses more a pain \u2064in the a**. Why can\u2019t they just sit \u2063down and learn the material like the rest\u2062 of us and stop making\u200c everything about themselves?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>was to gather data on the experiences of LGBTQ students in STEM fields, but we faced backlash.
