Progressive anti-intellectualism is more perverse and more pernicious than conservative anti-intellectualism because it took place within intellectual institutions, in the guise of intellectualism

I interviewed 20 senior admins and profs for this story. They painted a similar picture: under Alexander, Mellon became monomaniacally obsessed with social justice, almost exclusively funding work advancing political causes at the expense of more traditional humanities work. 4/

holy smokes. save the humanities from themselves.

Really good article, and I don’t know which is upstream of the other (or maybe it’s a feedback loop?) but there’s a version of this mindset very prevalent in the art and literary worlds right now that is similarly impacting the work being produced

How to reform education.

New York City public schools are approaching $40,000 per pupil per year in spending. Do the math on that. If you had a ten-student microschool and got that money directly, you'd have $400,000 per year to educate ten students. You could rent a beautiful facility and have money…

No. "Racist" has been abused by CSJ activists & claimed to be a thing only white people can be, but most people still use it to mean 'prejudiced on the grounds of race" & regard it as stupid & unethical. If someone is called racist for demonstrably doing that, it's just true

Sigh Stop. Just stop. It's not 2015 anymore bro. Every person with an IQ north of room temperature knows that "racist" is a racist word used only against white people. Please try to catch up.

Remember when Bill Moyers had his big Joseph Campbell kick on PBS and you could talk about really strange mythical subjects and weird coincidences and the convergence of the very ancient and the very modern in educated mixed company? I miss those days.

In episode 7 of "The Sociopaths Among Us," I explain how I began research on a book about a mother who threw her young children off a bridge assuming she might have sociopathic tendencies. Then I learned about her husband. You're quoted here @DaveCullen! open.substack.com/pub/smokeempod…

I read this while eating a mozzarella stick and friends, it was transcendent

Dostoevsky wrote this after nearly being executed: “When I look back at my life, I feel pain not because of suffering, but because of wasted time. I see how carelessly I lived, how often I ignored the quiet voice of my soul, how rarely I understood the value of a single moment.…
