To that point, targeting BIPOC postgrads, queer postgrads, disabled and neurodivergent postgrads, working class postgrads too and hand waving it because you might also be queer, neurodivergent, WC ignores that you have way more privilege as an adjunct.

And also, doing it anonymously against people who aren’t anonymous puts the non-anon people at risk. It’s dangerous for PhDs and other postgrads to speak up and stand up for themselves on here.

It is totally understandable why someone might be anonymous, especially for safety or job purposes. But you don’t get to use that against people who aren’t anonymous to deflect criticism.
