Ep. 478: Thaddeus Russell vs. Academic Conformism – Part One – Beyond Black and White

What’s new?
Thaddeus has launched the first phase of his Renegade University.

The Effects of Intellectual Conformism:
– Manichaeism in the minds of academics
– Charles Murray and Middlebury College
– Tucker Carlson owns college professors

– Donald Trump’s world and how the left gave it to him (fragility vs. repression)
– Tangent: Richard Spencer

Why and how Thad’s thinking has changed:
– Thad’s conflicts with left libertarians
– vertical (knowledge) vs. horizontal (overwhelm) information
– shifting definitions and connotations
– Policing Is Racially Biased? Thad’s commentary on the debate

– what I’ve learned from sheltered college professors
– media manipulation of race issues, and the real issues they’ll never discuss
– the history of mass incarceration
– Thad’s Article: "Don’t Like Militarized Police and Mass Incarceration? Blame Progressivism."
– my impulse to uncover secret plots and deceptions
– feeling pleasure in anger
– resist empathy in politics?
– paternalism in college culture
