I know it's just crazy!

Our current ruling class are the kids who got caught cheating in high-school because they wrote the name of the person they were cheating from in the space they were supposed to put their name.

And what you're seeing now is what it looks like when the classroom has nobody left they can cheat from.

Ay-yi-yi! What a mess! I think what we are seeing at the university level has filtered out to the rest of society. It is one thing for academia to peddle their nonsense to each other - most of us going about our daily lives couldn't care less what these overpaid, self-important, so-called intellectuals think or talk about in their faculty lounges. However, they influence the thinking of the people who become politicians, lawyers, doctors, etc., who in turn create policies/laws/regulations that effect just about every aspect of our lives. The appeal to authority, when that authority has no legitimate basis to stand on, becomes just another form of tyranny.
