Academia: Don't like Trumpian lies & a "post truth" world? The right's hostility to academia? @HPluckrose , writing from the left, points out that YOU created this problem. Academia created alternative facts, before alternative facts were a thing.http://ow.ly/ApaM30hALRS

Blaming post modern academics for Trump is like blaming them for violent chimps. He’s just a bully who thinks facts don’t matter because he can intimidate his way out of any problem.

Trenchant q. Trump's "alternative facts" appeal precisely because, in part, the right has bought into the academic PoMo/SoCo left's intellectual left's elevation of identity above facts and universal human rights. Its their "reality" -- who are you to say otherwise?

Pomo is stupid. Trump is stupid. That doesn’t mean either one invented stupid.

No-one is claiming that. I explicitly rejected that.
