We need a total and complete shutdown of all Ivy League anthropology departments until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

Interesting that Viking battle-axes used to rape and pillage defenceless seaside villages are fetishised by some Scandanavians/Europeans/Americans today as “rad” and “totally awesome as fuck” – that’s truly sick.
And, it is probably part of the broader psychological denial of the gruesome history of bloody violence, on which modern Western capitalist hegemony is founded.
how is there no calipers emoji?

I feel like it’s important here to note that Swedish State Media has used Magnus Fiskesjö as an “expert” to comment on news stories about China on numerous occasions.

How can you be an anthropology and Asian studies professor, see these frilly edges and the ornamentation and the fact that it is made from fucking jade and think “yeah, the ancestors of the evil Chinese CeeCeePee absolutely used these to behead people”?
Tapping the sign again…
The answer is simple: the personal qualities of present-day professors are such that we may find among them even exceptionally stupid people like Tugan. But the social status of professors in bourgeois society is such that only those are allowed to hold such posts who sell science to serve the interests of capital, and agree to utter the most fatuous nonsense, the most unscrupulous drivel and twaddle against the socialists. The bourgeoisie will forgive the professors all this as long as they go on “abolishing” socialism.
