worth noting that Bret Stephens didn't go to the guy's boss depending on the university's governance structure, it's more like he went to his boss's boss's boss which is even better considering how much shittalking Bret does about academia without knowing anything about it

A tenured professor doesn't really have a boss at all which makes the entire thing a lot funnier.

quote:There is no point trying to defend Stephens’ action on the merits. It would have been one thing, perhaps, to berate the prof privately — but to drag in his university boss can’t but appear hypocritical, coming from a scribe who has devoted hundreds of column inches to denouncing the so-called cancel culture and censorious campus progressives. Sweet defense. Good job.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:I kind of admire the psychotic need of the commentariat class to be respected at all times. it's because the ability to demand respect is a function of the power and position they hold being able to criticize and insult whoever they want while simultaneously demanding respect and decorum isn't just a weird custom they have, it's an assertion of their power and influence. we're expected to respect them because, as employees of a prestigious nationally-famous media company they sit above us on the social and class ladders if we disrespect them, we're threatening their perception of their position in the social order. and thus they reach out to our bosses - our direct superiors in the class system - to have us disciplined, confident in the knowledge that the bosses we see every day will bow to the word of an angry upper-class professional with media ties if one of us emailed the university because we were offended by a professor's tweets, they sure wouldn't offer us an invitation to give a public on-campus speech about our complaints. that's special treatment that Bret got because of his position, rather than because of the content of his complaint. and although he didn't get the firing he wanted, he'll probably be mostly satisfied with this acknowledgement that he's a special superior person whose complaints are more influential than those of the probes and plebes

It’s such a baby attitude. The power move is to not give a poo poo what politicians say about you in public. They’re doing their jobs by playing the political game, and at the end of the day, they’re in your pocket.
