I find it super funny that @CountDankulaTV was a big free speech martyr a decade ago because the retard taught his friends dog to Nazi salute but now that they're actually clamping down on protests he's too busy pissing his pants because Tim Heidecker was too mean to Alex jones

@PaulRDeHart It’s just another change in a long line. There was a time when all the ivy leagues existed as ministerial schools first and foremost, then as law schools, then as liberal arts schools, and now as occupational schools. In a hundred years they’ll probably switch gears again.

This is a huge crisis that points to the degradation of the Ivy League and of elite education in the United States but also of higher learning more generally. The University has been reduced to vocational training and converted into trade schools. Nothing wrong with those things. But that's not what universities are for. And sort of silly to think universities are well suited for it. Universities are for the sake of the human being qua human and therefore for learning for its own sake. The liberal arts--where you learn things for their own sake--are the arts of liberty. And the idea that you can have liberty without them is pure hokum.

Less than 7% of Harvard freshmen major in the humanities. Philosopher @jennfrey thinks that says a lot about how we've misunderstood what education is for, a true liberal education isn't yoked to a trade, it's the education that makes you free.

A self proclaimed socialist once made fun of me for wearing the same shoes to class everyday. When I said it’s because shoes are expensive he asked how I could afford college and seemed repulsed when I said I was there on a scholarship. They are deeply unserious.
Sarah@amymarchinparis

My entire college experience was truly about meeting ppl with leftist politics who loved the idea of class struggle as an aesthetic but were horrified to learn my dad had a ninth grade education and I was in the same class as them

@bumbadum14 @Zaoist4 I mean in the book (this looks like I am legend but I haven’t seen it) they make it very clear that the point isn’t to sympathize with the monster, it’s to explore the greater idea of how monsters turn into myths across extended time periods

@tortoiseofwar @HK47empest And what if they did not want to work in healthcare? Optometry is skilled labor, you can’t just replace them easily, so if they aren’t compensated in an adequate manner, are you seriously naive enough to believe they’ll just do it for what, say, a bricklayer makes?

@ErenJamie @HK47empest vision is a pretty essential need. optometrists would be motivated by contribution. optometrists would have needs provided on the basis they continue to work in healthcare. optometrists couldnt make the service scarce and make extra dimes off the need for proper vision.

@suchnerve I find the idea of self proclaimed autists getting one shot by shallow ideals interesting. Most of the autistic (diagnosed, 504, etc) simply don’t engage with most subjects unless they can very deeply, even if they don’t believe themselves able to. Wonder if it’s an internetism.

Finally finished The Theory Of Mind As Pure Act. That was certainly a mind bending read. Need to stew over it more, read Hegel, and return..

@GaiusOctavian22 Idk it’s still just derivative of the dialectic of the slave and the master but with *almost* working economics thrown in. Boring ah Hegelian ideologies are kinda dime a dozen.

Here’s a book arguing that a lot of analytic philosophy consists of empty ideas that don’t connect to the concrete world in a meaningful way. The author claims that much of analytic philosophy is just about conceptual connections or verbal puzzles. Do you agree?

There’s something about cheap light beer. An AngloSaxon/Teutonic tradition that US got right. The beer drinkers dominated while those taken by wine and spirits (Slavs, Irish, Latins, Meds, Natives) really struggled in comparison.

They promote Fukuyama. They promote Yuval Harari. They promote Sartre. They promote some of the worst ideological trash produced in the 20th century. But they never promote your mom. Ask yourselves why.
