The author is clearly smart enough to comment on sjw culture, but chose not to, so it made me suspect he was playing up the naive-foreigner act a little too much for effect, like Poirot does in his mysteries. Still, it was funny :)

What’s masterful is that he’s equally pouring scorn on financial industry psychopathy and SJW idiocy, while being sufficiently indirect that a casual reader could miss either or both

… actually, when SJW is done at that level, it’s preference falsification, not idiocy. Which the psychopaths in the class undoubtedly understood; only a few clueless students would have missed the point and imagined it was sincere.

ideological climate that rewards sociopathic lying and requires, at minimum, premeditated dissimulation from everyone in the conversation.

this passage is terrifying. the sense of meaninglessness, the arbitrary and capricious way that the world seems in American institutions. It gives me significant empathy for the SJW response. See meaninglessness and decide that meaning must be enforced socially.pic.twitter.com/rWhfXW4bhZ

Yes; this is the basic dynamic of nihilism and eternalism (and SJW is the dominant brand of eternalism in the US currently). Each appears to be the only alternative to the other… but there is another possibility…

I miss hippy monist eternalism. It's much more pleasant and has better aesthetics. Easier to laugh about its wrongness. This type of wrongness makes me want to cry.

Yes, SJW is mostly mean in a way hippie monism mostly wasn’t. Wearing my Buddhist hat for a moment, we’ve trained a generation that rage is virtuous, which is a rocketship to Naraka [hell, in Sanskrit…]

And that feeling victimized is a power position.

The problem is that they are correct, and their parasitic game has a higher probability of supporting themselves and their loved ones than playing by the rules of a system in which they are bound to lose.
