Ep 404 Reset Perspective With Better Definitions The Subjective Professor podcast

26:08

There was a paper assignment I offered to students to finish their semesters; it was a "persuasion" paper with a deconstruction twist.

An edgy title to discuss a controversial topic. I listened to an interview John Stossel did with James Lindsay who, with a couple other scholars, attempted to publish 20 academic papers which were fake; the title of this episode is the title of one they got published. They did it to expose problems of Woke Left academic publications. But there's more! That was from 2017-18, now Lindsay is discussing the Woke Right.…

The affair caught on a Jumbotron Kiss Cam is in the news cycle, and my question is: why? This story of marital failure reminds me of that meeting in Rivendell when dwarves, elves, hobbits, and men try to figure out what to do with the Ring of Power.
