How do we deal with the progressive scourge in literary academia?

By not making off-topic threads about it on /lit/, for one. Take it to /pol/.

These changes are coming from HR, who have limited budgets and ultimately want to transform the university into a seminary for capitalism.

Move to China, they don't care about this stuff, and when the US falls apart which it certainly will you can be the man who saved your country's lit from oblivion.

I think I just wanna kill myself at this point
I will never be able to live for another 20 years (at best) without getting subjected to this shit. Moving off the grid is impossible, it's all a cope fantasy. The only way to live is through slavery to this system then you come home and you watch more of your world fall apart. I don't even think about the future, wife, kids, it feels like something unattainable unless you want some butchered up surrogate where you coexist with strangers. Culture is dead, unless one isolates himself and tunes the entire world out of his senses there's only the past and the past is being disintegrated. Work is dead. There's no more work that can be done with dignity. You cannot spend your day working on something pleasurable an natural for a human being at your own pace until you are pleasantly tired, there's only horrible horrible horrible shit that is useless and breaks you mentally and spiritually. Nothing has a purpose, nothing makes sense. I genuinely don't have a wish to live anymore.

Ride the tiger anon. Capitalism is killing itself: no society that encourages its men to castrate themselves, pushes its elders to suicide, prefers having pets to raising children, and so on, can last for long. It wants to kill you, ofc, because you feel its true nature and you endanger its survival. Ride the wave, find joy in it, you are not alone anon

Poland is much more likely than Russia to turn into a prog country despite its recent chest puffing about borders and whatnot. The orthodox church in Russia is actually christian and allied with the state. Also they have nukes

Again not to paint rosy picture of Russia, only that it's genuinely not run by progs like the west is and it's not under the shadow of the EU either.

Well the answer is to go to war against the managerial class, e.g start political parties that rally the working class and other actually productive parts of the economy to go to war against administrators and other economic parasites.

It's not a coincidence that the administrative bloat that has occurred the last 40 years has spawned an ideology that necessitates the further existence of these people.

Scratch a progressive/leftist cause and you will find a jobs program, mark my words.

Apparently emigrating to Russia is super hard. You have to be married to a Russian citizen. Looks like it's similar to Japan if not more strict.

You deal with it by creating a traditionalist scourge. How did the leftist scourge come about? PoMos like Lacan explicitly calling for the humanities to get politically radical and activist. How was this facilitated, via admittedly trite literature and philosophy dressed up in flowery language with charlatanry in the public eye. Consequences are that enfranchised voters (rich honkies like Robin di Angelo) get radical, while disenfranchised voters (working class republicans) have opinions which have no effect on policy.

Those people are self cannibalising anyway

All you and other self-hating, black apologist, leftcuck progressive bitchbois do is prove pol right. You don’t seem to get it. Your fake and gay religion is destructive, anti-science, anti-nature, anti-reality, defeatist, hedonism pushing and can only end in needless suffering and death. Have you ever noticed that leftist ideology doesn’t create anything new or that it only seeks to justify its preconceived ideas and that its end game is not creating a structure or culture that enables more of humanity to reach a greater potential and instead only seeks to spread, like a disease, like a cultural bubonic plague, infecting and indoctrinating as many people as possible?

The material world has always been the scourge of man, it's only logical it accelerates in the Kali Yuga. You must base your existence on God and save your soul. Modernity is doomed and seeks to destroy everything noble, true, beatiful and good.

This is a normal healthy response to a truly sick and deranged world. I wish I had a solution for you but I don’t. There is hope though. 20 Years ago very few saw this coming and more and more people are waking up to the nightmare everyday. Don’t give up brother. I love you and good luck.

There are others like you out there, find them, and start something new.

The author seems to get a glimpse of consciousness in the end, but will likely continue to make excuses for Inquisition-esque behavior. Remove the humanities and you'll see a massive decrease in infection.

Both an honest bleak look at the current (at the time, things have only gotten worse since) state of the world, but also an inspiring life affirming outlook for people like us. It's one of his more "political" books but I'd definitely recommend it.

literary academia is under heavy control of the govt. they do everything the govt tells them to do. if the govt is threatened by people reading some thing, the govt forces the academia to remove it.
if u have a problem with any of these book burning/ historical revisionism or rewriting of facts, then you are a traitor to a state that is out to get you
