As some wag once put it, honesty is one of the better policies

"being honest about dishonesty"

at a certain point we really need to stop being surprised at how much of the “progressive” social and even hard sciences have become utterly fraudulent.
it’s not an outlier. this is the overwhelming mode and there is a clear and obvious reason why and why such practice so often concentrates in the “progressive” subgroup.
let’s look:
meet harvard’s newly defenestrated “star professor” francesca gino, who studied, wait for it, honesty and other similar behavioral topics, and now finds herself in termination proceedings (and is fighting them) for falsifying data about, wait for it, honesty.

Is there any academic discipline, major or course of study in which Harvard has an indisputable level of superiority? Law, perhaps? Medicine? I really don't know. I am pretty sure, however, that the institution's liberal arts programs are mostly woke-infected trash. So why do parents keep paying to send their kids there? I'm thinking: fools, money, substantial parting inevitable.

    It begins when you unself consciously use phrases such as "my truth" or "different ways of knowing." From that point everything becomes a vehicle to move the narrative.

  3. Harvard kinda reminds me of the aging Hollywood starlet who still thinks of herself as a hot commodity , but the wrinkles say otherwise.
