They get their power by black-listing true intellectually able individuals who perceive, isolate, prove and publish fraudery. Such people are not idiots. They are simply capable but lazy self-serving copiers who wish to occupy high-paying tenured offices quickly without earning their way upward by their own productivity.
Knock out the academic tenure machine and the problem goes away, IMHO.
The left, and all their bosom buddies, need to come to grips with the facts that outright
rejection of Western values (in the DEI hire of Claudine Gay) has enormous consequences.
Harvard’s Brave New World failed spectacularly.
Harvard has lost its honor, its academic preeminence and faces problems yet to
surface when it chose to burden itself with the cumbersome baggage of Claudine Gay.
To blame this on conservatism is preposterous.
Conservatism did not make Claudine say and do the things that contributed to her fall from grace.
Rather Claudine Gay was taking her cues from liberalism. She disdained and demeaned
cultural norms, and appeared to have not even a modicum of limits on her behavior.
IOW, a perfect liberal.
Claudine Gay’s worship of DEI was bound to end in failure
since DEI exalts human frailties...... and not just anywhere.
Gay exploited human weaknesses in a place-—Harvard-—
which goes to extraordinary lengths to do just the opposite.
One educated at Harvard is expected to be among the best and brightest........
not resemble a needy dithering halfwit dependent on DEI to get ahead.
