Seriously? Was there a detailed explanation?
Only a small message that announce it in a some of social media, like twitter and the other with the photos

I don't get it. I watched the whole video. Can someone help me out? He's complaining about what they call "food deserts" and he gets fired for it? Have we missed something glaringly obvious?

I-d love to be his lawyer, but on the other hand in Amerika people got a job to loose.

American society has become deeply, deeply deranged over the last 8-10 years.

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

The crazy was always there, but it's really ramped up (for instance, I see it in my students - there are a lot more that I would consider to be deeply, deeply disturbed. And disturbing). I've been looking for work (in my rather niche field) in the EU lately because I don't think the political class in this country has the prudence and statesmanship to manage the extremely ugly passions that have been building up over the last 8-10 years (or the last 22).

Yeah I can totally sympathise with anyone in the US that wants to get out. Stuff is starting to look really scary over there.

Things getting really edgy and hardcore, almost like both sides just discovered they on the trenches.

Yeah, I agree with both of you.
My second cousin runs a sheep farm out in rural Ireland - sometimes I think about abandoning academia and working for him. It wouldn’t be a bad life. I could still write and dealing with sheep can’t be all that different from dealing with students.
The sheep might be better conversationalists come to think of it.

+1 i agree to that and confirm it from personal experience, that involves also goats along sheeps and ofc students. Also i could confirm that goats, although they are more intense and need more effort can be better than sheeps in many cases. I believe that students today are more brainwashed and handled than sheeps.sultan2075 wrote: ↑01 Jul 2022, 18:07 dealing with sheep can’t be all that different from dealing with students.

He was not just fired for that video, but in UK terms it"s as if he was walking along Brick lane asking where all the real food was -
