That's is to say stop feigning "objectivity". That is bullshit. Be open write/teach what you think, show your reasoning. Celebrate when you have a brilliant student who might be smarter, but possess bad argumentation. Being in contrarians to coyter your point of view. Submit you ego to a gauntlet from which others learn. Of course academicians and journalists do not want to do this if its not expected of them. Peter should go to Hillsdale college or start his own with others like Peterson, Heying, Weinstein, etc

    I was a Professor of Philosophy before this stuff started developing, but other factors early on played a role: 1-Using the campus as a center for political action and attack on authority,
    2-The growing idea of politics as tribal, 3-Cheapening of standards to accommodate more and more students, the advent of the university as corporation profit machine, 3-Cynicism about learning, stemming from post modernism and the idea that there is no truth, only power.

      In my 20s and early 30s, I used to think that people with more than a bachelors, and those with a doctorate for sure, were smarter than me. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. Having worked in a super fast paced and ever changing job for the past 20 years with a variety of colleagues and clients has taught me so much. I don’t put a lot of weight on “certifications” either. I could write a lot of the carts I’m being asked to pay to get, but my employer needs them bluster up their partnership with the software company we work with. And, because I have implemented the software in real life, I’m finding it hard to take these dumb tests.

    I was finishing my degree at PSU when the administration investigated Peter for "using human test subjects" / misconduct in publishing the hoax papers. Even if true, this being their primary concern revealed how utterly backwards their priorities have become. The reality is, these pseudo-scholars and the journals they publish in are using the minds of young people, and arguably all of academia, as their human test subjects. If PSU's priority was to keep academia functional as a knowledge producer, Peter would have been awarded. The response that happened tells you all you need to know about the state of moral orthodoxy in modern universities, and Peter is right in saying they're nearing the point of no return.

      I don't get this anti-BLM thing though - maybe I've missed something about it. It seemed to be triggered by the casual murder of black people by white police officers, from which arose a return of black rights activism generally. Is the problem that it was co-opted by some powerful political group, or that the demonstrations turned into riots, or something else? Surely it's not the weak and insulting "equality" argument that white lives matter too? I mean, equal opportunities (rather than positive discrimination) is one thing, ignoring the whole point of the slogan and black people's suffering is another. Or is it all wrong, and there's no anti-black racism these days (sarcasm), or black people deserve it because their rates of criminality are higher (ditto).

      Homeschooling is a wonderful thing if one’s intent is to expand a child’s environment by exposing them to MORE than the typical school system does, and your overarching principle is to teach critical thinking and curiosity. If the intention is to shield and to close off their access to information that you don’t believe or agree with (like Evolution vs Creation) then it’s as bad is any other ideological based education. The objective of education should be to show young people how to learn, how to think (for themselves), not what to think.

(Such as bags of poop on his office door) I was shocked that the faculty that was involved in the incitement could get away with the terror they inflicted. Disgusting behavior.
    I am one of those people who questions everything and push until I get answers. I piss off many people who’d rather say things they’ve heard somewhere but they don’t fully understand. So questioning them on the subject makes them feel (their words) ‘unsafe’ and/or ‘not ready’ . I just tell them that it is great that they have an opinion, I just want to understand how they arrived at it, just in case they know something that I don’t….boy, that never ends well. I believe that if somebody is so concrete in their beliefs than they won’t object to explaining…it’s got to come from somewhere… and then if they don’t want to discuss it, maybe it is because their view point is pretty weak.

But, if he would have been, I’m not sure if we will know as the madness was so bad that he quit college. Brilliant young man chased away from the madness of Michigan State University.

And the media were imposing it on all of society back then, too. It's gotten a lot worse since then.

    When Pat keeps asking who is driving these things I think that's the wrong question to ask... This is generations of Marxist indoctrination in universities dating back to the 60s and the Soviet Union... At this point these ideas have become their own Leviathan and the people in the university system truly believe they are the righteous moral compass of the world. There are figureheads to these ideologies sure like Ibrim Kendi or Noam Chomsky or the squad or whoever you want to point to, but ultimately their is no clear leader only a consensus message to push commonly agreed upon narratives by most in the space aka CRT. I think this is a key point that's missed by the right and why it's so hard to fight wokism because you're not fighting a person, your fighting an idea... And it's an idea that people on the left have sacrificed and defined much of their lives by.

    I think that Boghossian should have referred to the "march through the institutions," which is a very important concept. This is how it worked: A huge part of the young generation in the 1960s went to university, a much larger proportion than earlier generations. At university, they were influenced by the anti-Viet Nam War protests, Civil Rights protests, etc. As these students got their degrees and entered society, they gradually moved up the ranks in academia, government, the media, even corporations. So it's the question of a generation, a sizeable proportion of which shared the same left-wing values. As that generation got older, many of its members reached positions of leadership. So, for instance, they were the ones who taught students, hired faculty, determined who'd get the research grants, etc. That's when the jig was up.

    I agree 100% with Pete's breakdown. He is clearly on the money with regard to the epistemic friction between the Post Modern Social Justice crowd and traditional Western Philosophy (Feelings, emotions, subjectivity vs. objective truth) that is driving the insanity coming out of academia. But I think Pete's soft spot lies in his atheism, in his materialistic, wholly rationalistic view of the world. His world view is valid in the world of what "is" but has almost nothing to do with what "ought" to be. The root of our impending moral collapse is spiritual, not intellectual. Maybe that's fodder for a follow up conversation with Pete?

They are rude, they think that telling the truth (transwomen are men) means that the person is "I validating trans people, denying their existence, and that the person has transphobia and wishes then harm," when it's a simply fact of life that whims and wishes do not make for reality. Trans people exist, but they are not the gender/sex they wish they are.

      Not sure where we disagree. What you and I believe to be simple facts are not interpreted by the left as such. The left equates feelings and emotions with knowledge ("my lived experience). They're uninterested in what you and I would consider facts because they believe the concept of factual evidence is an illegit tool conjured up by the ruling class/race in order to oppress the weak. It sounds nuts but that's how they actually think. . And that is exactly why arguing with SJW's is like peeing into the wind.

    This guy is talking about hegelian dialect. When you design the problem and the solution you control the entire chain of events. More dangerously, when you get caught fixing the game to your favor, you immediately recreate the game again without letting the opponent rightfully win.

    I first learned about Peter when reading Ben Shapiros book a year ago. I literally died of hysterical laughter when I read the part of the bogus peer reviewed papers. These universities have deteriorated to communism.

      I found James, Helen, and him about two years ago. It’s been quite the ride.

    I have great respect for Patrick Bet-David as he always seem to cut to the chase. I've listened to Mr. Boghossian for 30 minutes, and still don't understand his mission here. Perhaps he rambles to help his message come together hoping to reach a final mission definition.

    This guy reminds me of my college professors. He takes simple ideas and makes them unnecessarily complicated. We need more practitioners in education to cut through the BS. And, this woke movement is about money and power for one ideology. Period. Simple enough?
