And this (the jumping to conclusions and the lack of data points in the article) is the reason people in real sciences sneer at sociology... This isn't science, this is politics.

Exactly. Add economics and psychology to that list. Pretty easy to come to a politically convenient conclusion when there's no way to reproduce the results of your "study".

Or as Richard Feynmann wisely and correctly called it - pseudoscience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWr39Q9vBgo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWr39Q9vBgo It's pseudoscience used by people to push ideological and political agenda. Ever since science pretty much knocked religion down a peg or two, the activists created a new form of "religion" to further political goals.
