All the white male "humanities" academics I know (in anglosphere/EU) act like battered spouses. Their life is a non-stop struggle session where they have to repeat how awful they are and how much they hate others that are like themselves, how much they deserve to be discriminated against, how the people who benefit from that very good discrimination, who basically get promoted and hired without any quality control whatsoever, are inherently better than them.

yes, sadly because humanities exist at such scale and even the STEM related ones produce very little industrial value (computer science academia is a joke in the real tech world)

Very early Shakespeare criticism used to be written (I'm talking, like, early 18th century Lewis Theobald) by whoever was interested enough, and success was determined by whom the public believed to best 'get it'. De Quincey wrote a whole essay on the mysterious knocking sound early in Macbeth. It's a good essay, because he talks about something simple, and tries to just understand what it means.

Now Shakespeare criticism is written by people who read the Spark Notes, and it's written for literally nobody to read. They write entire essays about why Falstaff was actually always a transfat who uses humor to dissemble xer MAP kink, and how this is proof that Shakespeare was neurodivergent. 'Your thesis must be original' has been a disaster for the humanities and humanity.

I write software for money and, while I've read some horror stories about this kind of shit going on in tech, I've never actually seen it at any of the places I've worked (to be fair, the horror stories seem to mostly come from FAANG-scale companies and I've never worked for one). Most of my coworkers have either been apathetic about politics, or seemed to have pretty moderate views, or if they were wokes they just didn't sperg out about their wokeshit. Of course I still try to be careful about discussing any really touchy subjects, but it still seems a lot better than this academia shit. Although I wouldn't know, I have zero experience in academia from any point after I got my BA in smoking weed and writing papers the night before they were due (I did humanities in college, didn't get into tech shit until a few years later).

I do remember that back when I was in college I already found laughable and strange the whole genre of "critical theory" writing where everything is like "the intersection of the discourse about post-colonial hegemonic paradigms with a contemporary analysis of neo-liberal norming of queer theory blah blah blah".

Stage 1: Diversity training. Maybe everyone walks out thinking pfft what a load of rubbish, but now they know the rules.

Stage 2: A DEJI commitee gets looped in on every stage of the hiring/promotion process. In a neat trick, this is officially done to avoid bias. Usually with formal powers like a veto over final hiring decisions, or managers have to justify hiring a "nondiverse" candidate when there was a qualified "diverse" candidate available (all definitions subject to the whims of the DEJI committee).

Stage 3: Managers know choosing yt/azn moids will cause drama, so they opt for the easy route. Kinda like how most people obey the police without being forced, because they know they theoretically could be forced, and is it worth the effort?

Stage 4: Every promotion is "diverse", new hires are overwhelmingly "diverse". Everyone knows what's happening, but there's no smoking gun to whistleblow over.

My problems with critical theory and pomo shit do not lie in that it came from the Frankfurt School (it has more in line with the French philosophers who signed the age of consent petitions in the 70s, looking at Foucault, Deleuze, and Derrida) but because of this identity bullshit and the β€œabstracted for no reason” concepts it has.

β€œWow I'm a queer Afro-Asian she/they/them body who…” They have no real achievements besides their academic posts. If you have to pivot to making papers about your identity without real insights and using garbled wordsalad, I think you have wasted real intellectualism

Westoids have a paradoxical relationship with essentialism which has become increasingly impossible to square with reality.

It was an understandable reaction to how politics and perspective was parceled alongside identity historically but is making less and less sense as time goes on. It reifies identity while the rest of society is doing the opposite with the internet doing the most heavy lifting.

The reaction is increasingly paranoid policing of identity, since the Internet gives access to everything there's a paranoid urge to prevent that culture knowledge from being abused and to contextualize it to keep it within the lines. All that ends up doing is stigmatizing those with unique experiences contrary to the norm which the Internet also facilitates(see here). They were afraid that the decontexualized misunderstood or weaponized minority culture would be institutionalized by the majority to the detriment of the minority. While they can gatekeep these formal unanonymized positions, they can't for the rest of society regardless of how hard they try but the paralyzing fear remains.

When so much of human interaction is psuedo anonymous where a yt can self teach Navajo and Navajo culture, then pass themselves psuedo anonymously online as Navajo, then be accepted as Navajo by Navajo then you get pretendian hunters which collat actual Navajo.

Majority identities were deconstructed while minority identities were reified with 20th century information technology. As what it means to be a man became more unclear the idea of what it means to be a trans man became more real and concrete. Now everything is being deconstructed in an extreme way that no amount of word games can stop thanks to 21th century information technology. Western academics still can't get over there elitism so they have to make increasingly desperate attempts to police narratives with the only tool left, identity. This won't stop the zoomer creole doe.

At no point in your rambling, incoherent post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this site is now dumber for having read it. May God have mercy on your soul.

The fact Orientalism is still so highly regarded in American humanities academia paints a very darning picture of its current state. I really pray for a violent Haidtian revolution.

Affirmative action in college has been such a failure for so many years. The black/white achievement gap hasn't decreased but has steadily increased over time, white and Asian kids with brilliant minds still get rejected, and the black kids with the subpar SAT scores who do get accepted in over them are destined to fail because they We have been going more and more like India, China and Japan's with academia trying to find β€œuniqueness” in the sameness of a million students applying to overrated snobby liberal universities. College admissions is such a joke and this applies also to the academia hiring process.

It's all done to justify some grifter's job in the university though. Looks to be more and more reminiscent of the Jewish quotas in the thirties that barred some great minds such as Feynman from the Ivy Leagues for being Jewish.

Affirmative action shifted to being about diversifying campuses which had a hilarious effect of prioritizing the children of black immigrants over African Americans, despite black immigrants being richer than yt Americans while fricking over Chinese Americans whose families built the railroads and were forced into ghettos by the US government.

The few children of black immigrants who aren't richer than huwite Americans seem to be Somalis, who have moved to the inner-city ghettoes and have assimilated into the classic hood mentality, complete with dine n'dashing, gangbanging, speaking stereotypically ghetto, and being unemployed. Gangsta rap and crack basically destroyed the inner-city neighborhoods and the black working class you'd see in movies such as in the films of Charles Burnett (Killer of Sheep, To Sleep With Anger) in one to two generations. Ironically, Burnett's first bad film was a typical watered-down Deep Cover starring Ice Cube, fake gangster who lived in a middle-class two-parent household and notorious Jew/Asian hater, called The Glass Shield. It's not worth watching

Has anyone's twitter feed been fricked up lately? I swear its done a complete 180 and only shows stuff it thinks I would hate now. I followed some black chick who featured here months ago and my entire timeline turned into chud central. Overnight its basically turned exclusively into far left shit. Its not even following the drama on stuff like Nick Rekieta that I'm actually trying to follow.
