There are still a few sane academics in America, but they are a dying breed.

Critical theory has so invaded the academic world that there is almost no point in trying to have a conversation with a university professor. It’s not that they are just wrong about what they believe and what they spout. It’s that they don’t believe that there is an underlying concrete reality that exists outside their own heads.

That is, at the base, the foundation of critical theory. Reality is a construct, language is about exercising power, and reality is what they say it is. Power+language=reality.

"I can hold these two irreconcilable facts in my mind at the same time."

My dude, this is LITERALLY LITERALLY the example from the end of 1984 of doublethink, when they've tortured him into loving big brother and believing what the Party wants him to believe.

Holy crap. https://t.co/y59qbOq4PC

2+2=5 Is this some random guy? No. He is apparently an “excellent” teacher in Ontario.

Let me provide two other great examples of this reality. The first is from an event where Riley Gaines, one of Lia Thomas’ former competitors, spoke to a college crowd about the evils of gender ideology. She of course has first-hand experience of the concrete consequences of having to live with it, given that she shared a pool with him.

When @Riley_Gaines_ asked University of Pittsburgh professor Gabby Yearwood if an archeologist could differentiate between two sets of bones as male and female, Professor Yearwood. who calls himself the “expert in the room,” answers “no” to which the entire audience laughed. pic.twitter.com/Ecxs1NMDTr

During her speech, a professor of anthropology interrupted her to insist that there is no concrete definition of male and female, and then he proceeded to deny that he could tell from the bones the sex of a person he dug up.

Even physical, biological sex is merely a construct. Said an anthropologist.

The students laughed at him. Because of course, he was lying, and they knew it. Sex has a concrete reality, whatever critical theory claims. Unfortunately, the room is filled only with people who actually cared to hear Gaines, and far too many are led astray by the “authority” of the professor.

He, by the way, was very offended. He is an “expert” after all. The students should defer to his authority, despite it being based upon lies. He is supposed to have the power, after all.

Another example that I have used before is the gender studies professor who got flustered by Matt Walsh when asked “what is a woman?”

I could watch that clip a thousand times, simply because it is every professor whenever asked a question he cannot answer. And he cannot answer it not because he doesn’t actually know the answer, but because it contradicts the “reality” he chooses to inhabit. He insists on his authority, and that should be enough.

This is the real definition of insanity, by the way. Psychosis in particular. Insanity, contrary to the common saying that it is doing the same thing and expecting different results, is actually dissociation from reality. That can lead you to expect different results from the same act, of course, but the fundamental nature of insanity is simply not being connected to what is.

Like the person who believes he is Napoleon or the man who actually believes he is a 6-year-old girl or the man who believes he is female, an insane person cannot grasp reality. He is psychotic.

That is also the definition of a professor these days.
