Welcome back to our VIP video series “The Amiable Skeptics,” featuring my friend Adam Baldwin! Adam is well-known for his long and storied Hollywood career, starting with My Bodyguard, and especially for his roles in Full Metal Jacket, Firefly, its film sequel Serenity, Chuck, and The Last Ship.
Adam and I discuss the crisis in Academia and the federal government’s role in education, including the failure of the student loan support system and the lack of teaching critical thinking and Western civilization. This isn’t just obvious from the raging anti-Semitism of the last three weeks, but also the gender-ideology cult’s grip on campuses, which Adam and I relate to the French Revolution.Can we cut off all federal funds to Academia? Not until we win some more elections — and start taking the culture wars with the seriousness they deserve. That’s definitely the lesson we have learned from the rise of neo-Naziism in Academia.
Be sure to watch it all, and extend the conversation in the comments!
