Race and gender professors have called for the neglect, abuse, rape, and killing of animals. And some ‘animal protection’ groups are promoting their books and modifying policies accordingly.
I had not read the CRT publications that promote neglect, abuse, rape, and killing of animals. I am appalled. Never would I have imagined someone actually thinking that CRT would accept non-protection of animals. If anything, I would think protection of people from minority groups would instill the desire to protect MORE living creatures rather than justifying abuse. When the CRT promoters justify abusing animals, they are acting just like Whites justifying subjugating anyone unlike them. Disgusting….
These useless gender studies degree programs are an infestation on college campuses. They should be booted out and replaced with something more practical, like a school of veterinary medicine. At the college where my husband teaches (classical) music, he and his department have to struggle to get minimal financial support for needed physical upgrades so they can teach better. Meanwhile the gender crowd is getting literally $$ millions, with new buildings, programs and administrators while some of the students are having serious mental/emotional health problems with the trendy ideologogies that get peddled there. Campus suicides are lately on the increase (which was virtually non-existant before).
It’s ok to call this stuff out. I’d love to see vet tech certification, a DVM program, college work-study programs with the local shelter, things like that, instead of the latest alphabet addition to a now very long acronym, which is going into territories I perhaps don’t want to have decoded for me.
Update (Oct. 2025): Our college lost another student to suicide. My deepest sympathies to the deceased, for the family and to the college community as a whole. Could this tragedy have been avoided, with the love and care that comes with volunteering and caring for the cats and dogs waiting for a forever home at the local shelter? Animals give so much back to those who are struggling, in their darkest hour. Rest in peace and may the academic community find a positive way forward, perhaps by including the furry ones in student circles, both as a way to help young people feel more secure in difficult times and for the animals themselves to find comfort among their human friends.
Appalling, and I applaud your lucid writing and compassionate tone, often unusual nowadays.
This reminds me of LASER - Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.
There is a system of reflecting inhuman and meaningless academic drivel on a cavity bounded between journals and forums which stimulates further emission of the same, particularly in soft sciences.
The reflection amplifies the idea, like laser cavities amplify light waves, activating more and more thought centers, and aligning them to the same phase and wavelength until they burst through the reflectors into another publication.
How does this stop?
Quenching is a mechanism to halt lasting - In lasers or plasma systems, quenching refers to the sudden suppression of emission due to a competing process that dissipates the excitation energy before it can produce coherent output.
When competing disciplines, methodologies, or political contexts collide, the intellectual energy dissipates into argumentation rather than alignment.
Argument absorbs all the time and effort, and should originate externally. Time magazine eg.
“Bureaucratic absorption:”
Research energy gets absorbed into administration, compliance, or metric-chasing rather than amplifying ideas - the “heat death” of intellectual energy.
Articles have to be subject to intense internal review to assess accuracy and relevancy: force empirical accountability.
“Triplet trapping → Ideological fixation”
A field becomes trapped in metastable, unfalsifiable debates - absorbing intellectual energy without producing new illumination.
Heading that way.
“Thermal overload → Overproduction of noise:”
Excessive publication, social amplification, or hype creates thermal noise that destroys phase coherence.
This to me is the key. Recruit a network to publish constant refutations requiring unending effort. The network you have shown decoheres and falls apart:
This is what happened to the Democratic Party. Pure noise, while the Republican Party cohered around Trump.
These kinds of articles are so sad. A smart person follows a bad idea, and will never career course correct.
