Depressing reading. Couldn't finish it.
Think it's time to start defunding universities.
Try something different.

People have to ditch the groveling “I like diversity too, but...”
Response has to be: its unacceptable to require your employees to pass political purity tests. Premise rejected

I’m so happy people are becoming aware of the woke-epidemic that’s spreading in academia paved with good intentions but horrible in practice.

Unfortunately after observing its members and their behavior, I don't think they are owed the benefit of the doubt on the 'good intentions' part. It is a guilt-based cult with no sense of forgiveness and no intellectual rigor at all.

"I'm not arguing against "diversity" [..] euphemism for racial, gender and sexual-identity quotas. I do, as required by my employer, put quite a bit of thumb on the scale in hiring and appointments."
Shorter: We fed the crocodiles & now are wondering why they are turning on us.

“These statements precedence in the hiring process, so that if your statement doesn’t exceed a minimum numerical cutoff for promoting diversity, increasing it in your past, and promulgating it in the future should you be hired, your candidacy is terminated.”

Asking for a resignation letter in advance in this manner is like undergoing penance at a confessional: it’s not good enough to commit to avoiding “sin”. One must also promise to suffer consequences should you fail.

The purpose of this is to get dissenting academics used to lying, which means any factional fights among the dissenters will be between people willing to lie in a good cause and are therefore untrustworthy.
