Assuming you weren’t being sarcastic, it means “before the common era”, which corresponds oddly enough with the Christian era.

It means Before Common Era. C.E. means Common Era.
I first noticed its use in the late 1980s, in graduate school among Jewish professors. It was also when I first came across "critical theory."
Many such "modern" practices germinated decades ago in universities, away from public view.

It also means that “I’m a Leftist” so this story will be ‘safe’.
