   Judging by how things went last time, I predict that a bunch of research areas will be officially designated in the US as "Jewish science", or whatever they call it these days, "woke science" I guess. And a bunch of those areas will turn out to be useful, and one of them will be the 21st century equivalent of nuclear physics. And that's how we'll beat em a second time.

     @julesh I can totally see this happens with queer people and advanced programming/CS, definitely on the critical path of this century. Sigh.

     @julesh category theory (and abstract algebra generally iirc) has been considered Jewish science for a long time already by the Nazis. We should be proud of this!
