@chenchenzh I love Wang Xiaobo too but sometimes I do wonder if he'd become another Trump-idolizing beaconist had he lived to this day 🤣 source
@chenchenzh haha hopefully! But in his writing ("zawen" essays in particular) I did find a tendency toward oversimplification & Manichean dualism though. He also had his fair share of biases too, e.g. northern culture/language chauvinism, toxic masculinity, etc. so i dunno... source
ppl weirded out by 20+ year olds in fandoms is Always Funny to me bc i Remember being 15 and reading my favorite fics written by a 30 year old Lady that talked about her Husband & her Cats in the Notes & being like. Please dont leave me i am Nothing Without ur Superior Literature source
@chenchenzh but to his credit (or Li Yinhe's?) he was firmly against anti-gay bigotry, which might be something that could set him apart from Chuanfen (also, a year after he died his younger brother was killed by a black robber in Detroit- would it have affect his race view if he were alive? source
@junemangobel @chenchenzh 王小波和李银河的观点并不总是相同的。比如他曾经在一篇杂文里嘲笑李银河“痴迷于后现代女权主义”。换到现在就是那种天天在微博上对“田园女权”开炮的男性公知大V了🤣 source
@chenchenzh @junemangobel 对,世妇会前夕吧,跟风写女权主义。其实他那篇放在当时已经算是(在男公知里头)比较难得了,至少他自认为是自由女权主义者。问题是他对各种女权主义理论(大概是李银河在读,他跟着翻了两眼)明明并不了解也缺乏了解的兴趣,就那么信口开河乱打稻草人,非常mansplaining🤣 source
Yes. Many law professors apparently DGAF about asking their students to pay commercial publishers $250 for a book that consists largely of PD material. Indeed, many of them don't know or care how much the books they assign cost. The time for open-access is NOW. link source

It appears my son’s textbooks for his first semester of law school will be over $900. Is there some secret trick around this?
