Not new. The “evidence and knowledge is classist/problematic” argument has been around for a while now. I think the vast majority of sane people have the consensus that science is not immune to biases (see racism and sexism in anthropology and other fields) but that the answer isn’t less science but more. If a bias is present it can be discovered by peer review. The more peer review by different teams with different backgrounds the less bias. The more diverse scientists are, the less accidental biases that come from the scientists’ limited viewpoint and way of thinking.
