NUS Woman's Campaign Proven to Be Rightwing Hoax Designed to Make All Feminists Look Shrieky and HystericalShe deleted that tweet, but Twitchy grabbed up on it first. I got the next several articles from Instapundit and Powerline. Powerline suggests the these attacks on the New Salem may represent a liberal revolt against this. Maybe. However, in my experience, most liberals are fairly weak, and buy into Marxism's complaint that liberalism is an inauthentic political philosophy which empowers the Capitalist class or whatever. Thus, liberals believe Marxists when Marxists say liberals are weak and traitors to their class and really should just defer to Marxists. So my guess is that liberals will continue being worthless, and continuing deferring to and empowering Marxists, and continue seeing a soft Marxism as the path of least resistance. This is great article by film professor Laura Kipnis in the Chronicle of Higher Education decrying the "Sexual Paranoia" which has swept through the academy. Kipnis argues that professors should be free to have sex with their students (and vice versa), as it used to be, back when she was younger. You can disagree with that as you like, but the enforcers of the New Morality aren't doing so out of deference to the Old Morality; they're outlawing sex in order to vindicate far-left feminist concepts of the Woman as the Eternal Victim. And of course of "power disparities" and all the rest of it. The whole thing is a great read. I'll just quote some of her more piquant moments. It's the fiction of the all-powerful professor embedded in the new campus codes that appalls me. And the kowtowing to the fiction--kowtowing wrapped in a vaguely feminist air of rectitude. If this is feminism, it's feminism hijacked by melodrama. The melodramatic imagination's obsession with helpless victims and powerful predators is what’s shaping the conversation of the moment, to the detriment of those whose interests are supposedly being protected, namely students. The result? Students' sense of vulnerability is skyrocketing. Do you think she should be fired for that pro-rape article? No? Well your opinion doesn't matter. The feminists say she should be, and they're all that matters. At the Nation, Michele Goldberg (who's written about the nastily smothering new feminist sex-panic militancy before) talks with Laura Kipnis. You need to know that Kipnis is being personally protested for the violent, pro-rape column you just read parts of. Last Monday, about thirty Northwestern anti-rape activists marched to their school's administrative center carrying mattresses and pillows. The event was a deliberate echo of the performance art project of Columbia student Emma Sulkowicz, who is lugging a mattress everywhere she goes on campus for a year to draw attention to the university's failure to expel her alleged rapist. At Northwestern, the target of the protest was not a person accused of assault, but the provocative feminist film professor Laura Kipnis. Her offense was penning a February essay in The Chronicle of Higher Education, titled "Sexual Paranoia Strikes Academe,: which argues against her school’s ban on sex between professors and students, and more broadly against the growing obsession with trauma and vulnerability among feminists on campus. I'll send you over there to read what more Kipnis has to say. A professor takes to Tumblr to agree with Kipniss. I’ve been in academe for about a decade now, and the only professors I’ve known who have slept with or dated students were female.... Indeed, this has grown so foully toxic that even the New York Times is compelled to note that something smells rotten among their Fellow Travelers. But why are students so eager to self-infantilize? Their parents should probably share the blame. Eric Posner, a professor at the University of Chicago Law School, wrote on Slate last month that although universities cosset students more than they used to, that’s what they have to do, because today’s undergraduates are more puerile than their predecessors. "Perhaps overprogrammed children engineered to the specifications of college admissions offices no longer experience the risks and challenges that breed maturity," he wrote. But "if college students are children, then they should be protected like children." This article is worth reading (all of them are, this is gripping, frightening, lunatic stuff) but she glances over an obvious explanation: Just like as was the case in Salem, lodging an accusation which cannot be disproven and which must be taken as true by your Holy Dogmas is an extremely "empowering" thing for weaklings without any power. Yes, kids like bossing adults around. It's an old fantasy that every child has. And our current children -- children until 26 -- are the most coddled and fantasy-addled in all of human history. This is a case of the lunatics running the asylum, as teachers and faculties are now scared shitless of the administrative punishments and harridan disciplines that the students will impose on them. Eh, they all deserve each other. Let it burn? I give that sentiment Jazz-Hands.
