It's also related to paying edu providers per degree handed out etc I heard that's happening :p not sure how Tru it is anywhere actually

Urmmm

I’d say education has gone downhill in the UK due to lack of funding but also due to the opening of too many shit universities

N word

The fact of the matter is, some people aren’t suited for academia

And that’s okay

But they’re told they have to go to UNI

but yeah the degree to which there is a consensus on anthropogenic climate change despite the incentives being there to reject it is one thing that makes me find it to be very convincing

And we get all these shit universities with shit degrees

What incentives to reject climate change?

the fact that it's in the interests of those who hold power to reject it

And it is an INTERNATIONAL consensus

Oh so you agree there is man made climate change?

yes

Oh okay cool

I would not be so sure.

it seems quite likely

My bad, misunderstood you

There is a LOT of self-hatred and anti-"west" sentiment, climate change caused by evil whites fits into this postcolonial theory perfectly

What?

Not everything is about SJWs hating white people sude

Dude*

Climate change doesn’t give a fuck about your race

Really? Just google "climate change racist"

i would think the economic incentives of denying climate change would be far more important

than this

Yea death in June is right

and I'm sure you'll find a number of articles ranting on how climate change is racist evil done by the hwite man

Many rich energy companies have it in their interest to say climate change is false

generally academia tends to lean "socially left and economically right" because that's the way the bourgeoisie lean (and of course academics tend to be high in openness as well)

but they do not control acedemia

But I don’t care about people saying it’s racist or whatever

nor public discourse

I care about the facts and statistics

And they say that regardless of who’s fault it is

It’s coming

much of academia is controlled by very lefty people many of whom buy into this postcolonial bullshit

i wouldn't say very lefty

If you go looking for these people you’d find it

and sillicon valley is also largely staffed and owned by leftists
