Classic motte & bailey. “Why can’t we teach gender studies. What happened to classical liberalism & free inquiry?” There’s a whole host of subjects ppl would be interested in learning about at school that are verboten & this line is never taken on their behalf. Not convenient.https://twitter.com/aqbyrne/status/1028024820649390080 …

“What happened to open inquiry?” Indeed. Let’s talk about differential crime rates, IQ charts, colonialism in a not exclusively “hate whitey” framework. Let’s talk about academia itself. Jewish influence (w/o needing to take a moral position) on media. “Open inquiry” right?

Doesn’t have to be hateful. “Black studies” to celebrate blacks. Classically liberal. No subject is off limits. No ban. So let’s do “white studies” to celebrate whites. “Critical analysis of patriarchy” style class? Cool beans. “Critical analysis of Jews in academia” class right?

Where exactly do we draw the line? Lots of interesting topics are off the table. But some tiny country on the other side of the Atlantic takes an obscure subject like “gender studies” out of the curricula & classical liberalism/free thinking has died. Died long ago. You’re late.
