    It an academic trope that no one reads the syllabus, it's analogous to the terms and conditions when you're installing software, everyone clicks that they've read it when no one ever does.

  5. Editor Curtis Houck:

    She painted leftists as somehow victims in all this, which is such a tiresome trick the left plays when people they don't like are in power. The image she paints of anyone who's not in her camp is one of brutality and violence that's such a tired trope yet it's actually dangerous. She's advocating for a more dramatic return to tribalism and that'll do nothing to cool the temperature of our discourse.
