So I'm graduating my bachelor's program soon and I have a handful of friends who cite/read althusser in their final thesis thingie.

These people will read a bunch of Marxist theory so they can get to the bottom of what "interpellation" is, but then will turn around and argue a bunch of pro-israel shit for example.

Like Marxist thinkers are so embedded in academia but ppl rarely follow it through to the conclusions and just throw up some postmodern end of.history shit

Are you talking about actually existing science or the infallible science of Marxism-Leninism-Hoxhaism?

for the compartmentalizers, i loved this section on how physics researchers pretend that they're free intellects, rather than weapons researchers


this is also true today about CS people, especially people working on really fancy machine learning or big data things. people are very passionate about what are legitimately interesting technical problems and usually either think of them only as technical problems or buy in 100% into the bourgeois ideology that surrounds them.
