Your first point was good but spoiled by this ad hominem attack. Being interested in STEM fields doesn't make one any smarter, or otherwise superior, to anyone else.
- BXLE_1-1-BitIs1 5y agoThere's a big difference between interest and competence.
- extra88 5y agoYou’re still clinging to the absurd assumption that everyone wants to work in STEM and the only reason one wouldn’t work in STEM is because they couldn’t “hack it.” Not everyone who works in STEM is even competent at it, for most roles it is not required. You have probably encountered some of them yet they’re still employed. What is necessary to work in any field is an interest in doing so, that’s why I chose that word.
