Academic wank....
take from mousie onwank_report
It's been a while since we've had some good old-fashioned academic wank about stuff most people neither understand nor would care about if they did understand. And this academic wank involves Michel Foucault,Mr. BDSM himself, and academic feminism, which is always fun.
On academics_anon LJ community, marlowe1 has an important message: he took a stand on poorly-constructed dystopias. Also, he doesn't like Foucault, academic pretension, misapplied lit crit, or certain aspects of radical feminist theory.
Reaction is swift and brutal. Assuming, of course, you consider having to listen to whining grad students to be "brutality." Godwin's gets to play in short order, and marlowe1 has a thoroughly wanky romp through the collective offended sensibilities of the academics. Wankery all around, plus lots of accusations of "you study the wrong language" and "I misunderstand better than you misunderstand."
There is a follow-up where marlowe1 explains his position on the various feminist doctrines (not all five-thousand and pedantry of them, of course) and the population, having gotten righteous indignation out of the way last time, tries for dismissive self-satisfaction.
(Sorry about the brevity and lack of quotage...life and duty call, I must answer, and they won't take "go the fuck away" as an acceptable reply anymore.)
