Uhhhh, the dominant historical source of academy science is race science. We require many barriers to science because science has historically been completely entrenched in oppression and it hasn't really ever stopped

Do you understand that the primary barriers being referred to here are intellectual property? I suspect you aren't in favor of propritarian intellectualism. What do you think those racist academies opinions on intellectual property has been?

I understand that anyone who knows what SciHub is about would infer that. It's not what the slogan says. It says remove all barriers in the way of science. The slogan is problem.

Removing the intellectual property barriers necessitates ending the racist academies.
