Dietrich Bonhoeffer concluded that stupidity was more harmful and malignant than evil. The difference between the two is that evil has its limits.
As a Principle Engineer with 35 years of experience, I can say with 100% conviction that this statement, Colleges and Universities actually teach “critical thinking” skills is COMPLETE AND UTTER BULLSH!T
Over the past 5 years I have taught a number of “critical thinking skills” workshops. I only agreed to this because I naively thought “how hard could this be?”. OMG, engineering graduates are utter MORONS!! They attack problems head on. They grab their theories and examples from class and attack the problem.
Granted they have ZERO practical experience, but they SHOULD be able to examine a problem BEFORE diving in. They NEVER examine more than one side of the problem. They dive in and have NO IDEA HOW DEEP THE WATER IS!!! The last intern I mentored fit this example. Nice kid, LOUSY ENGINEER, but he did know the 57 current genders and various pronouns. ENGINEERING, not so much.
I wonder how many other professions fit my example?
Are we screwed? ——— YES
Bull$h1t. Give an example. The writer gave examples of the Left cancelling opponents; but not the Right. Just stated that the Right does it. Gotta be evenhanded and all that? Sure.
From the article: “Hamline’s president, Fayneese Miller, stated, ‘Responsibility for the observant Muslim student should have superseded academic freedom.’”
Would that they showed the same consideration for Christian students...
Our country has become the septic tank to the world and the “colleges and universities” are the pumps.
