This is an extreme response. It must be possible to identify which courses and teachers are using which epistemologies & ideologies without wanting to destroy the ones we don't like. Options can't be: complete absence of discernment or authoritarian censorship/punishment.https://twitter.com/Bantu_Rhino/status/929345710377525248 …

Well this was written intentionally hyperbolically. I'm surprised you'd quote it to be honest as it was part of a larger discussion. But anyway, when we apply warning labels to ideology rather than simply confronting it with better ideas we abandon the core of liberalism.

We have to identify the bad ideas to do that tho.

Sure, but we can do that generally without trying to drill down to the course level.

Sure. The problems are located within ideology. Teach people to identify it and challenge it rather than creating banned book lists. Further, I think it's a strawman to compare postmodernism to racism. One is a universally understood violation of fundamental human rights.

I'm not comparing them. I'm comparing the method of naming and locating social problems.
