I thought he taught in a more prestigious institution, my bad. If you’ll notice, his publications are almost all outside of his training so he’s basically talking out his ass like George Starostin or a Pitchfork writer or the rest of us. He’s just better-read.
I’ve seen advice that you shouldn’t list DeVry or University of Phoenix degrees on your résumé and just take your lumps as a ruinously expensive mistake. You live and you learn. How does a good leftist like Dr. Fassbinder sleep at night working for a for-profit university? Like I’m basically OK with colonialism but I don’t make as my primary identity being a bright beacon of freedom and brotherhood among all workers and the downtrodden and oppressed of the world. Is there a Marxist term for limousine liberal?
