Yeah the whole “STEM” thing is dumb and anti-science. This corny meme implies that philosophy majors become flat-earthers, etc. It’s a great example of the reactionary STEM mindset.

No, most philosophy majors still believe in gravity. While flat-earthers cease to believe in gravity once they realize that a flat earth is incompatible with gravity. They replace it with this notion that the earth disc (and the rest of the system) is accelerating upwards through the void at 9.8 m/s^2.
Though I’ve come across some interdisciplinary studies types who would probably argue that gravity is a social construct because we describe it with language.
I’m not even sure what you are trying to say here, science and empathy are 2 very different things. This is a very oversimplified version, but science should only be about answering if assumptions we have are true or false, based on enough evidence.
I’ve seen a lot of the counter balance to this which is STEM folk not having respect for the humanities, rendering them empathetically underdeveloped.

STEM is just another educational grift.

They’re complaining about how it is fashionable to say up with STEM down with Arts, to present them as opposed
