I read about the story and its details a while ago, and this seemed like a misunderstanding between people with borderline personality disorder under the influence of feminist hysterics.

I Worked With Avital Ronell. I Believe Her Accuser.

Of course. Who needs evidence? When you dislike someone thats enough proof.

So this is mostly just an article complaining about bland university gossip and politics. That doesn't mean it isn't hilarious though.

The first thing to understand is that getting a PhD really is slave labor. It's setup so that you don't get any reward until you graduate and leave, and that reward is almost entirely controlled by one person. It gives them all power over you. It amuses me that so many academics complain about how oppressive capitalism is, when the system they operate in is basically a gulag. But hey, here's some funny stuff from the article.

> The need to feel smarter is deep. Intelligence is a hungry god.

Ha. That's not intelligence. That's insecurity because you know you aren't actually that smart.

> We get high on finding meaning others can’t. We hoard it, like dragons. We would be intellectually humiliated to learn that the truth was plain...

Well, this is kind of true at least. But seeing lots of complexity and meaning where there isn't any is actually a mental illness, that's the definition of schizophrenia. Somehow this never occurred to me before.

> No woman escapes the relentless misogyny of the academy. The humanities are sadistic for most people, especially when you aren’t a white man.

LOL. That's why humanities is almost entirely women now, and all the white men are nearly gone. It's because the white men are so privileged there. I really have no words.
