No offense, but that's a shytty hot take considering that graduates from these good colleges are dealing with the same loan situations as the ones from the shytty ones.

The main difference being that one just isn't looked down upon as another when looking at a resume.

The fact of the matter is that college is an expensive investment that's been in need of revamp long ago. I say that as someone with both an MBA and Bachelor's from "good colleges."

what’s your bachelors in? where is your MBA from? where do you live?

Once you start working in certain fields or applying to certain jobs, you start understanding the importance of university.

Working the jobs I worked; I wished I did the extra year. Now I'm here on the fence wanting to go back to school for engineering.

But God forbid I hear the words "I don't wanna go to uni" from any of my younger male family members.
:wow:

Business Administration from MSU and MBA from University of Tennessee. Both PWI’s and considered some of the best in their perspective states. Current state Arizona.

Graduates from those PWI and colleges you’re talking about are swimming in student loan debt as well even with good majors with the main differences being they’re making more money and those institutions don’t get the same shame of their students being in debt.

It's not pseudo academic rhetoric. It's the dominant academic rhetoric, which is the problem. The intersectional feminist position dominates and is largely unchallenged because people are afraid to lose placement, jobs, clout, etc.


He breaks it down perfectly. Intersectionality becomes a brain worm that destroys critical thought and sows discord. And its biggest proponents utilize it to snag jobs in academia. There's a non-zero chance that if you have a son he will be taught by someone who views him as an aggressor whose every behavior advances patriarchy, and he must be neutralized (or neutered) in order to literally save (girl/women) lives.

EDIT: my final point is not suggesting men should therefore avoid education. We should take it even more seriously, knowing the forces at play. Black men went to school when the government and racial forces were far more blatant about eliminating black people (50s-70s for instance). We have no excuse not to go to school now, in the face of a less deadly and far more effete threat (you know what I'm talking about). WE can defeat this shyt. It has to be a unified front.



Class reductionism will never help ADOS people even Yvette Came to understand that.

I'm not a Marxist, I just found his arguments about academia to be very impressive. It explains what I've been trying to explain for years.

In terms of class...dunno man. On one hand sure, look at what the unions have done: majority white groups of working men who keep voting against their interests to support a racist president they think/hope/believe will magically save them at the cost of everything else (including black people). I support unions, I think black people should join unions, unions are good...but again, the people in unions remain white racists.

On the flip side it's more clear than ever that black focused politics are dead. What I mean by that is the half assed liberal attempt to address black issues with policy ideas that only impact black people. We're never going back to the days of republicans ignoring that. It's pure legal warfare from here on out, with the outcome being the policy gets shytcanned. We saw that with Biden's initiative for black farmers and how it took years to get it legally sound. From here on out the only thing I want to hear about is taking over federal departments and actively giving black people shyt. I want black people at the USDA rubber stamping loans for black farmers. And you know what? I want them to rubber stamp loans for white farmers too, because the best way to avoid controversy/conspiracy/etc is to make sure enough white people are eating while we usher black people through the door. I don't want to hear about commissions or studies ever again. Put people in government who help black people and black interests. Nothing else matters.
