There's a qualitative difference in both intent and substance though, between "let's cut tax support for universities" and "let's make college so expensive we create a system of debt bondage that won't dare rebel against corporations" ...

A qualitative difference between intent and substance? Not if the intent is the libidinal economy of the structure. For example, antiblackness is the libidinal economy of racism. The structures may differ but the game remains the same.

You misread my tweet. I said qualitative diff *in* intent and substance between what the memo says and what the quoted tweet claims it says. Ie, memo doesn't say what she says it says. Period.

When the intent is clear (as it often is to minoritized populations who are the victims of capitalist and technocultural logics) then your insistence on semantic alignment between thought and deed reads as equivocation, if not willful blindness
