Tales From The Infrared: TED Becoming A Bastion For Feminist Thinking?

TED has been untrustworthy for at least the last couple of years. When they expanded into the TEDx nonsense, it just went completely off the rails, and they never recovered. Feminism, if they've gone that way, is just one part of it. They back all kinds of nonsense, to the point that they don't even know anymore what their brand is promoting.

In seriousness, even their older talks were light on substance, heavy on emotion and "awe". It was bound to go downhill with that formula.

Yes.

More and more TED talks are being sourced from Academia personnel and that is the place where feminism thrives.

Hate to see TED die like this.

If you notice on TEDx youtube Anita's speech on "being a victim" of bullying has it's comments disabled, so much for tha progressive intelligent space to freely discuss issues of today, she's given special pass it seems, maybe they think her points infallible so discussing them is not needed.
