    I guess the conclusion that “universities that exploit their students are in the same power structure as corporations that exploit their customers and employees” is unacceptable to you?

    The system is fractally corrupt.

        What’s sad is that tuition goes up a few significant percentage points over inflation every year and has for decades, even as teaching is off-loaded to slave labor adjuncts.

        College is the initiation of citizenry as cash cows for the extractive capitalist system. Not surprising that where you went to college functions as social branding.

          Totally, there be some DUMB fucking Ivy Leaguers running society. It’s not an education, it’s a frathouse.

          Genuinely, one thing that got clear the older I get is your education doesn’t mean shit, who you know does.

            Yeah, and what I’ve realized is that if you’re not connectwd, sucking up to superiors is worth being 10x better at your job.
