What’s amazing about teaching the humanities today is the profound contradiction that circulates in public perceptions—humanists are 1) cloistered in their ivory tower reading and writing about socially disconnected ideas; while also 2) being so politically engaged we’re trying to indoctrinate folks

As a professor I've been trying to indoctrinate my students with the controversial theory that reading the textbook is good, actually I have not been successful

It's a common tactic with conservatives. Like Biden is both a senile old man and a criminal mastermind with his tentacles in everything. They just throw every insult at the wall and see what sticks.

Popular fascist ploy. The enemy is both too powerful to allow unchecked, but also trivially weak and impotant. The second category eventually turns into subhuman/vermin rhetoric.

Well that's good illusion they want to cultivate: humanities professors don't know how "real people" live (because college professor is such a high paid job 🙄) and indoctrinating their kids into "liberal nonsense," like non-white people are, in fact, people

I seriously wish people (not the politicians but the people they are scamming) could see a livestream of my day. I barely have time to eat and correct comms splices. I certainly don’t have time for critical race theory etc. indoctrination.
