You just called me a sheep and I am the rude one right?

I just pointed out a pattern with people who love conspiracy theories.

You are not living in your bubble are you? You keep quoting people and repeating over and over and over again the same stuff like voting doesn't matter.

Tell that to gay couples in western countries how voting doesn't matter or women who want to keep their rights.

You started not me, you were the rude one by labeling me. And again dont read then, nothing is forced down your throat from my side. Yes opn your eyes, your voting does not matter, you dont get to decide whom becomes your leader, they want yes -men and puppets to do the work, they dont want critical thinking leaders. There is a good reason im not in Nato anymore. But ok if its conspiracy to you so be it....it is what it is.

This just means that you don't want women and gay people to have the rights they should have and you call this critical thinking. 

You have been repeating this for months now quoting literally everyone on every issue in this thread.

i'm glad I no longer work for cambridge university, toothless organisation, just like the rest of academia these days.

Can you say much about your time working there? What was it like?

Is it as crazy as it seems from the outside with the stupid ideas like 'decolonising science' or any of the other bullshit you see being pandered by people with useless PHD's?

Why are you imagining stuff now? When have I said gays etc dont have the right? Im saying you may cast your vote but in the end you dont get to decide, somehow that translates to Im against gays and women.....get a grip.

Violins dangerous. AR-15s a God given right. America circa 2020

Aurora PD breaking up the peaceful violin vigil for the very kid they murdered.

 

McClain was walking home, completely unarmed, and the coppers tackled him, placed him in a choke-hold and restrained him. A paramedic who arrived on the scene later injected him with ketamine to subdue him. McClain had a heart attack while being taken to the hospital. He suffered brain damage and was placed on life support until he died on Aug. 30, 2019

I was just a field archaeologist, so I spent most of my time digging far away from the university, so I'm not really the best person to ask. I got on pretty well with the people on my team.

My undergraduate university was crazy too, the head of the student union called for a mural to be taken down because all the people depicted were white ( it was a mural showing the men who were enrolled in the university during the first world war but died in the trenches and were unable to finish their degree) , the head of the union was white herself,  this insane masochism needs to end

I'm under no illusions the *whole* university is that crazy. I'd imagine that it would vary by department. Good to hear you had a good experience though I would hazard a guess that the space between you and campus helped [emoji14]

The murial thing doesn't surprise me an iota

"We think “diversity” means people with diverse backgrounds, but the Critical Theory twists this definition into a very specific interpretation. Specifically, in Critical Social Justice, “Diversity” means something like “people with ‘diverse’ ethnic origins who all have the same Woke political understanding of the ‘social positions‘ they inhabit and the world in which those have context.” The programs for “Diversity” insist those people, not merely people from different backgrounds, have to be hired to achieve “Diversity.” The Critical system of thought maintains that everyone else lacks the “authentic” (i.e., Critical) view and thus fails to support the right kind of “Diversity.”

Under these Critical Theories, if you happen to be some particular identity (e.g., “racially black,” as Nikole Hannah-Jones, creator of the New York Times Magazine“1619 Project” seemingly inadvertently put it), then your voice is only authentically Black (“politically Black”) if it speaks in terms of Blackness—a radical black-liberationist political mindset—as that is understood by Critical Race Theory. Otherwise, the black person in question is said to be suffering internalized racism (a form of socially brainwashed false consciousness that prevents him from knowing his own best interests) or is race-traitorous. Therefore, a “racially black” but not “politically Black” hire wouldn’t constitute a proper Black “Diversity” hire because the “Diversity” perspective requires having taken up the right black-liberationist politics of Critical Race Theory. Literally anything else supports “white supremacy,” which is the opposite of “Diversity,” and thus doesn’t qualify. The person’s identity is their politics, and this is why we see prominent black figures being cancelled for not holding the proper “politically Black” line.

How can this be? These Identity Theories operate on the premise that different identity groups have a different essential experience of “systemic power” dynamics and thus different “knowledges” and “lived realities.” When the relevant identity is racial, each race is said to possess certain “racial knowledges” that can only be obtained in one way: by the “lived experience” of oppressed for being that race and learning to interpret those experiences through Critical Race Theory. Only someone who represents those experiences faithfully, meaning as the relevant Identity Theory says they must be, has an “authentic” voice that speaks from that social position. Thus, in the Theory underlying DIE training, only Critical Theorists of multiple “oppressed” identities can possibly count as satisfying “Diversity” because that’s what “Diversity” really refers to.

You tell that to yourself. You don't even believe covid pandemic is real or the global warming. If voting didn't matter candidates wouldn't change their opinions on social issues, but you obviously don't care about such issues.

So back to my point.

You are and you have been always in the tinfoil hat area.
