Boghossian has called for defunding, but I *think* that is just exasperated sarcasm, not sincerity.

I have to scoot but I do suspect you all have good intentions. I hope there's a more constructive way of making academia better.
We really do & I genuinely appreciate you realising that. Discussions about the most constructive way to address the problem always helpful.
