If you are talking about the seeming 'wokeness' of this research well yes, that is probably a fair comment. But that would be fine if they actually did a proper experiment. I don't think it is a coincidence that particularly woke research may be of poor quality. I agree with you that a strong idealogical bias is a hazard to generating truth. This is most pertinent in preventing certain types of research from being performed or results from being released. This is mostly a problem for psychology and sociology, which among their other merits have limited impact on actual life.
