Yes and no. There's that kind of person, but there's also the jaded geek that spent half his life on the relevant boards, answered every single question that comes again and again until he burned out and it just pissed that people can't be bothered to use the search function.
How do you know someone is black, a woman or in any other "marginalized group" on the internet UNLESS of course the person says so?
Which doesn't even tell you whether the person actually is in one such group, only that they claim to be. Because... hell, how would you determine that?
Didn't you get the memo? What you want isn't important, you MUST establish equality, if necessary against better judgement or the collective will of the affected.
Most SJWs I met are absolutely capable of being both. Why do you insinuate that SJWs cannot be as great an asshole as any toxic masculine MGTOW? Are you assuming their abilities?
You are aware that the supply of teachers is not unlimited and as far as I can tell not even on par of what's required to teach properly, yes? In other words, let's do a conservative estimate and assume that 30% of the teachers are bad. You fire them. Ok. Who teaches 30% of the kids now?
In other words, you want the ones that now work as teachers instead of an industry where they could make a LOT more money to leave because the job perks they stayed for are gone, leaving only the bottom of the barrel to teach your kids?
How is this trolling? If anything, it's spot on target. Pol Pot already knew that people are easier to rule if they are dumb as a doorknob. Since it's not politically correct to just kill everyone who is smart enough to actually know you're bullshitting them, the next best thing is to at least ensure the next generation won't be smart enough to debunk your lies.
The very idea of sports playing any role at a university (that's not focused on sports related studies, that is) is bizarre to be honest. The closest thing my university has to sports is the robots and AI departments' joint effort to get a robots soccer team going.
Equal outcome is communism. Equal opportunity is basically what the US was originally founded for.
And it doesn't come closer to equal opportunity than teaching everyone on equal footing, then let them go out into the world and become what they can become based on the education they got.
Not just Scandinavia, that's pretty much the norm in Europe. To be honest, I never thought something like you describe was possible in the first place.
The difference maybe being that it's not a groundbreaking research endeavor to plant a tree. You know that it will grow and you know, barring disease or disaster, that you will eventually be able to monetize it. Research is a VERY different beast.

They really want to examine every shit from you.
Last I checked both sides lie to further their agenda.
I should type faster. Now you'll get the insightful and I'll get the redundant.
But I'll claim that I'm a foreigner and can't type fast in English, that should do. Try to prove me wrong!

We barely understand how emotions work and now we want to monitor emotions in people who have every reason to hide them?
Good luck...

I wonder what Kurt Vonnegut would say about it...

If you have a few key engineers who know where to put those doorknobs, it works pretty well as we see today.
I've never seen that old catchphrase used in a more cynical way.
Sorry, English is only my third language.
Damn right. How much education does that pleb need to say "yes sir" and bring me my slippers?

Now that's just silly. How the fuck are book publishers going to make money that way?

Well, it could work as the "what to avoid" role model...
So far the theory, now the practice. In other words, prove the prof failed you because you refused to buy his book.
Maybe stop voting for idiots who can't handle your money properly?
What an odd thing to say. Why would it matter what you call your imaginary buddy?
But instead of telling people how to do this, you preferred to belittle me. Did that serve any purpose?
