Even so, academics is such a niche and marginal problem compared to, like, anything else capitalism fucks up.

Scientists are still doing good things all the time under capitalism. Environmental sciences criticize problems that capitalists are loath to address all the time, but also apparently capitalism funded their research for a century.

This post is just more populist tanky agitprop to make dumb people angry and distrust institutions and science whenever it tells them something they don't like.
