In your experience, how long does it take for a student to be brainwashed with a leftist ideology in an Australian university?

Are there more fourth year students who are brainwashed than there are first year students?

Does the degree change the rate of brainwashing? Environmental engineering vs mechanical engineering?


What was a conversation you had that left you believing the student was beyond redemption?
According to this expert it takes roughly 15-20 years to fully indoctrinate a generation of students into a particular "leftist" position. These then go on to become indoctrinated leaders and the path is set. You can start at 1 min or go straight to 1 min 55 sec to get his precise positional statement on time frame but it's worth listening to the whole thing.


I always find it quite comical the amount of so called self described intelligent, well informed individuals on forums like this who still have no actual idea of the depths of mechanisms at the highest levels.

Unsettling SpongeBob and the Legacies of Violence on Bikini Bottom

Holly M Barker
The Contemporary Pacific
University of Hawai'i Press
Volume 31, Number 2, 2019
pp. 345-379

Abstract:

Billions of people around the globe are well-acquainted with SpongeBob Squarepants and the antics of the title character and his friends on Bikini Bottom. By the same token, there is an absence of public discourse about the whitewashing of violent American military activities through SpongeBob’s occupation and reclaiming of the bottom of Bikini Atoll’s lagoon. SpongeBob Squarepants and his friends play a role in normalizing the settler colonial takings of Indigenous lands while erasing the ancestral Bikinian people from their nonfictional homeland. This article exposes the complicity of popular culture in maintaining American military hegemonies in Oceania while amplifying the enduring indigeneity (Kauanui 2016) of the Marshallese people, who maintain deeply spiritual and historical connections to land—even land they cannot occupy due to residual radiation contamination from US nuclear weapons testing—through a range of cultural practices, including language, song, and weaving. This article also considers the gendered violence of nuclear colonialism and the resilience of Marshallese women.

Ever wonder what a real-life Revenge of the Nerds might look like? Well, it’s here. And it’s nothing like the bawdy 80’s sex comedy. Turns out it’s more like Night of the Living (Brain) Dead and it’s taking over America.

Imagine if anyone who ever took a Marxist Manspreading & Toxic Phallocentrism course suddenly got to RUN THE WORLD. As if hating your parents’ money wasn’t bad enough… A generation of minor thinkers has unleashed a major mind-virus that’s spreading from its college containment unit into corporate and government policy.

It seems the doctor is being a bit precious too. Is there any other context?
Other tweets said that he had a one-hour meeting with hospital administrators to deal with this issue while he was on shift (which it seems was what s**t him the most) after the admin went through a full investigation process. They had to collect witness statements from other in the room etc. It was apparently the first interaction he had with the trainee too.

The time (and therefore also money) wasted for that should rightly peeve people at the organisation. More fool them (the admin) for giving it life too.

His issue is that he has to answer to morons who are far less intelligent than himself..

SJW's are taking over the world one beauracrat at a time, and it appears to be getting rubber stamped by big government without question.

It makes you wonder if it's actually being engineered from the top for ulterior purposes. Is this a (western) world wide agenda?

I'd imagine one of the methodological problems would be you'd have a high proportion of w***ers in your sample.
Nope, they were apparently told not to wank for at least 48 hours haha! They were paid US$25 for participating.

There is so much wrong with this study. And that's before you ponder the general question of WTF?

Yet another sociology fruit loop.

Making Black Women Scientists under White Empiricism: The Racialization of Epistemology in Physics

Chanda Prescod-Weinstein

Department of Physics and Astronomy and Department of Women’s and Gender Studies
University of New Hampshire, Durham


Abstract

In this article I take on the question of how the exclusion of Black American women from physics impacts physics epistemologies, and I highlight the dynamic relationship between this exclusion and the struggle for women to reconcile “Black woman” with “physicist.” I describe the phenomenon where white epistemic claims about science—which are not rooted in empirical evidence—receive more credence and attention than Black women’s epistemic claims about their own lives. To develop this idea, I apply an intersectional analysis to Joseph Martin’s concept of prestige asymmetry in physics, developing the concept of white empiricism to discuss the impact that Black women’s exclusion has had on physics epistemology. By considering the essentialization of racism and sexism alongside the social construction of ascribed identities, I assess the way Black women physicists self-construct as scientists and the subsequent impact of epistemic outcomes on the science itself.
