180 sats \ 10 replies \ @SwapMarket 23 May \ on: MAGA’s Supposed "Assault" on Science (The Economist) econ
This is no joke. Imagine you worked your ass off to be admitted to Harward from some shithole country, plus secured grants and/or loans, just to lose it all to a strike of a pen. What Trump administration is doing to science is akin to USSR, where most research was produced in jail-like "posboxes".

Again, hyperbolic.
I suggest reading Heather Heying's piece (it's linked above)

It does show my attitude. Does that make anything Heying conveys about the problems in higher ed wrong?
No. So go back and reconsider

I won't. Trump is a moron and a thug. Graduating from a top US university was the best thing in my life as a foreigner.

good for you... what's that got to do with anything?
If anything that should mean you know a thing or two about how universities are broken (#975728, #974877) and, if anything, see some logic in pulling funds

In my experience, they were not broken. I learned just the things I needed to land a good career.
