I hope my fellow leftists don't go back into full reflexive isolationist mode.
I guess naive leftism really does devolve into neoconservatism in the end - empirical fact exists in the social sciences after all.

Lectured? Its one sentence dude. Social Science is only a field of study for the gravely under-educated undergraduates. Study all you want. Some people actually apply the principles of social science.
And now for some critical theory...
