    I feel like any westerner hanging around academia and paying attention over the past 10-20 years already knew this in their hearts. To summarise my feelings about the shittiness of western academia I came to just say “the fall of the west will start in academia and it already started a while ago”. Accurate or not, I feel there’s enough truth to it, and by how much it startled people, it seems to have gotten the point across.
