@jeffjarvis Important to note that this is by design. They want to replace the tenured faculty with right wing Christo-fascist sympathetic professors. The easiest way is through attrition, avoiding the legal battles of firing tenured professors who don't happen to teach or research exactly what the state wants them to.

@Brad_Rosenheim @jeffjarvis i’d go even further and say they actively, knowingly want to destroy institutions of knowledge qua knowledge 🐍 🍎

EDIT: hell i can just cross out that “institutions of” but it might be skipping a step too many for my reply to be comprehensible
