I see no problem in labelling courses as undesirable and unscientific based on ideology. I say this about postmodernism and theology all the time. It doesn't deny anyone free speech.

We should label courses as unscientific based on... um... science? Just saying. Also, please define "postmodernism". Jordan Peterson here thinks, I kid you not, *English Literature* is postmodernist. So, yeah. I was referring to FoS not in a legal sense, but in a societal sense.

Yes, label them as unscientific based on science. I assumed you meant label them so because of their postmodern ideology. English literature is postmodernist. Literary theory dominates now and its postmodern.

Um, what? Literary theory is a field of literature, it's not a point of view. How is it postmodernist? Furthermore, please define "postmodernism".

No, it isn't. It is a set of theories by which to analyse literature. They are postmodern & include feminism, postcolonial theory, critical race theory, Marxist theory, post-structuralism and queer theory.

These days people dismiss all their critics as “extremists” of the opposite ideology. He shows more maturity & sense than many other activists. Much respect
