Academia is rife with bigots. This is an example of Horseshoe Theory in real life. They’re pigeonholed into their narrow track in life that they haven’t spared much thought for other topics. Not all that different from someone who is uneducated and ignorant.

They over-estimate their proficiency in other areas by assuming because they’ve studied hard at one thing, they must be good at anything. At best they know of the concepts of the -isms and repeat the right words when prompted to do so. But catch them in a moment such as this and all is revealed.

The internet is historically like this on account of it leaning towards the academically privileged classes of the world. People conflate socially maligned behaviors with education and professional status.

All you’ve done is reinforce that point. Because she is a scientist or because another person is a lawyer they are less deserving of this behavior??? As if a less privileged woman would be. You conveniently weaved your narrative around this. Education and class are inextricably linked.

This could be a blessing in disguise. He called Biden a retard on Monday. He’s now upped the threats a notch.

Could be he got some very bad health news from Walter Reed medical over the weekend.
