u mad bro

Exactly something a German national in academia would say. But yeah, I am mad because I'm trying everyday to solve the problems you just bitch about and it makes it harder when I have to defend against people that say you and I are the same because we see the same problem.

you seem to think these problems have a solution, other than “disregard Scholarship and deprive the Unis of cultural and social support”. they don’t.

Maybe, maybe not. They sure don't have a solution the way you're doing it. All they have are anonymous Twitter glory from disaffected, angry people who don't know where to turn.

Literally every word you type about this, betrays your total naivité about the nature of power in general, and how it works in academic institutions. There is no persuading anyone there, and persuasion is in any case not one proceeds against political enemies.

I've actually worked in academia. I've worked in the public sphere. I've worked in non-profits. I've lived in the ghetto and I lived in the burbs. I've read comics and I've read classics. And I'm the naive one?

yes, apparently you have failed to internalise important lessons about the nature of institutional power from you manifold experiences.

Nope, because I know how it works, I can do the work the right way and actually accomplish things to make it better. What you're doing is impotent cowardice. If you want to solve it, prove it. Otherwise it's just a personality cult.
