It's just appalling. You know that half the American state budgets are K-12 education? Yes. Half, right? And that's just government subsidy for the worst academic discipline, which is education. The worst faculty, the worst students, the most radically progressive, and conservatives have just rolled over with the possible exception of homeschooling and let that happen.

And so you're pointing to how that underlies this terrible emergent racial tension, which is also being fanned by the psychopaths, right? Like the people who are raising money in the aftermath of committing a crime. And then you have all these hand-waving, dim-wit, progressive, liberal moralizers who say, well, every perpetrator is a victim, and of course we have to support the oppressed.

Even, like you said, in these terribly egregious cases where some high school kid got stabbed. So yeah, okay, okay. That's a big problem. You know, we were doing pretty good in the 90s with regard to racial matters until it became an intellectual shibboleth to stir the pot. Goddamn universities. I tell you, man.

Like Harvard, like Columbia, like all the universities. Yeah, it's appalling, Matt. And that's gonna be a big mop-up operation because as you mentioned, Harvard changed its diversity office's title. You know, but they kept the same people. And there's nothing slipperier than a radical progressive with language.

I think they call it community and, I don't know, what's some bloody horrible combination of cliched words. You know, community and well-being are something, you know, that should just make you gag if you have a bit of sense. But it's the same old players. I think the universities are in, they cannot be fixed. They cannot be fixed.

I just did a podcast on that topic and I looked into the data and the stats, you know, the 3% of the faculty at maximum at Harvard regard themselves as conservative and it's worse among the administrators. And the typical faculty member and administrator is not centrist American, you know, where that 80% of Americans sit. They're progressive.

How the hell do you fix an institution that's riddled from top to bottom with progressives and that's gerrymandered its hiring, promotion, and publication processes to privilege the woke mob?
