"PMC are working class" lol ok Hexbear, just try and do some science at your local university! I bet these class traitors won't even let you in the library unless you own some property or are a business person (well maybe you can get in because Hexbear is a PMC website, these redditors have those privileges and powers which normal workers do not)

medieval Euro-Christians: (a proto-fascist conglomeration of monarchy/feudalism and their religious counterparts)

Modern liberals: (the same thing but it's ruled by bourgeoisie instead of kings, and the religious dogmas come from Malthusian eugenics like "being fat is evil because it takes up our precious resources", "giving food to the third world is bad because they become dependent on aid, please ignore our glowie role in the ongoing genocides of these famine stricken countries. Our understanding of economics might be literally 200 years old, but we're actually woke progressives who want to uplift humanity!!! Trust our religious dogma, or else be excommunicated from our grifting"

      History is mostly considered a part of the humanities, the one sphere that Marxism is actually allowed, only then to be quarantined there. Other departments flagrantly disregard any Marxist academics in the humanities so it doesn't have any material impact on the greater academic (and subsequently material) world, at least not through that channel of power. Graeber actually has a few notable quotes panning the discipline of economics for this. He basically dunks on them for being willfully ignorant of the actual historical record of human development as charted by historians and anthropologists.

      And while community colleges aren't engaged in research, they are engaged in preparation for bullshit jobs still. I look forward to the day education is for human flourishing and societal enrichment, not reproduction of capitalism and class war.
