TRIGGERnometry · Why Critical Thinking Is Dead - Warren Smith · 2 May 2026 podcast

So remember, hold the students accountable.

So for example, Warren, I have this one student, doesn't show up to class, doesn't do any assignments.

And I'm going to give her the grade she deserves.

You need to do the same thing.

The protest happens.

I'm about to teach it.

And we have a follow-up meeting.

Remember, Warren, what I was saying about that student?

She got named on the website.

It was a Facebook group, hashtag EmersonSoRacist.

accusing of microaggressions, claiming she made a microaggression, which doesn't require evidence because it's subconscious, it's a microaggression.

Yeah, Warren, I was really wrong about that because that student, I forgot how difficult it is.

She told me about how difficult it is to be black at Emerson.

So I can't hold her, it's insinuating, I can't hold her to account for not coming to class because there's not enough professors that are black, according to them.

They don't see themselves reflected in the student body, even though there are many black students and black professors.

That's what that student was pushing for, and many do.

It allows them to push for that.

So people are going to do what's in their interest if you give them the ability to.

So it doesn't surprise me in the least that they took this narrative and ran with it.

Because, well, so the pressure, the culture that exists within this high-level, high-brow academic elite where they all need to be, they all strive to be as sensitive.
