It works that way from the "research" side, too: we have "Women's Studies" and "African and African American Studies", and no voice counter to them in academia, and do you think the "research" will ever say the issues don't exist? The conclusion is baked right into the fields, they will never, ever, ever say that discrimination doesn't exist, and anyone who disagrees would never go into that field in the first place. So we have a field composed strictly of people who believe they're oppressed so strongly they decide to devote their careers to it, who are dependent on convincing others they're being oppressed to maintain relevance and funding, and whose conclusion to every bit of research they might do is already set by the core beliefs of their entire field, and there is no field that exists to give a counterpoint.
