Academics and their Auto-Epistemic Pathology



There they are,  tenured hermeneutes, who like sleek Cheetahs repine in their lairs with all the funded time in the world to pursue and track their prey (meaning). And once spotted they are off in pursuit till they drag their quarry (meaning) down. Then impaling it by the neck they squeeze the very life out of it.

If you wanted to get 'wordy' you could accuse these academics of auto-epistemic pathology i.e. regurgitating the same texts each year (under the guise of genuis) for each wave of unsuspspecting new students. Throttling the life (meaning) out of a supposed genuis (a prize prey) is intellectual machismo par excellence

Don’t you just love them?
