I agree with the “liberals and maggots are alike” argument to an extent. To compare them makes sense within the context of a binary and levels of extremity (cont.) #academicsky #academicchatter #phdsky

Hypervisible @hypervisible.blacksky.app · last yr.The administration “has quietly doubled down on its decision to stop sending emergency food to millions of children who are starving in Bangladesh, Somalia, and other countries. Without urgent intervention, many of these children are likely to die…”
Bc social awareness has dimmed significantly in the last 20-30 years as hyper-individualism has ramped up to the X-treme. #Blackademics #academicsky #academicchatter #phdsky
IYKYK 🌮@nisslbody.blacksky.app · last yr.Where did all these people learn to assume that every post is an invitation for them to talk about themselves, and why didn't they unlearn it by high school?
Oh and capitalism of course. #Blackademics #academicchatter
