>>12136336>social taboos have never stopped sciencist beforeYes they have. If your job and/or funding relies on an institution with certain social/political ideas, you'd better toe the line.
>Who is suppressing it?Cancel culture in general. Social media (and mainstream media if the situation gains enough notoriety) can kick up outrage and put enough pressure on universities/academic institutions to fire anyone whose findings clash with "acceptable" opinions.
The idea of race in humans isn't even controversial (in a scientific sense); there are measurable physiological differences (skeletal structure, bone density, disease susceptibility etc.). In fact, if you're a medical professional, it's essential that you know the race of your patient when forming a diagnosis. Race is however controversial in a taboo sense, so any self-preserving researcher will keep their head down and do whatever is necessary (citing environmental factors, massaging data etc.) to avoid explicitly addressing racial differences.
