Dear Sarah Lawrence College

Dear my alma mater,

You are so full of woke shit I'm ashamed to tell people I have a degree from Sadie Lou. 

I wouldn't let any child in my care anywhere near your recruiting booth. 

You, SLC, are part of the problem with this country. You are a prime example of the relativist, postmodern, nihilistic, Marxist turn that's made this country miserable. 

You are the face of the pathological rot that is the American university system. 

My four years at SLC were great in many ways, and I wouldn't take back my time with you. The personal attention to my intellectual growth given to me by my professors was wonderful.

But you should know--and do feel free to share this email and my name as publicly as you like, or with your office confreres looking for something "problematic" to kibbitz over--that the main value of my education to me today is contemplating how seriously in error my world view was. 

How close I came to staying the woke robot SLC was prepping me and my classmates to be. 

My degree is a reminder to me to beware of cultish authoritarian thinking. Especially the most dangerous kind that you deal in: the feminized iron fist in the velvet glove that says "empathy" on it. 

Nikole Hannah Jones? Is there one single narcissistic, manipulative fraud you won't platform? 

With contempt,

PS—Yes, I know what you’re saying to yourself right now. “He’s been radicalized.” “He’s part of the patriarchy.”

No. You started to radicalize me. I de-radicalized myself when I started paying attention to the real world that exists outside the Foucauldian-Feminist-Marxist delusion that suffuses 1 Mead Way.
