The politicization of everything and the rise of ideologic overtake of universities, contaminated thinking accurately about the models of reality reducing every intelligence based and genuine debate to banal disputes of privileges and subjective preferences militarizing discourse with false accusations and mining the victimhood mindset.

PS: most of the population can't read that sentence and are blind to that trick.

The trick is that ideologues can dispute power based on fraudulent ideas disguised as sophisticated theories that can always be reduced to banal lies (once removed how they are hidden in language complexity).
