The thing is that this has been true for a long time. Thinking that liberal arts degrees are impractical is received wisdom that collapses under the slightest scrutiny. This claim is only "counterintuitive" if you have bad intuition about higher ed, and, accidentally and on purpose, most people do.

Trick question! GENERATION X was cancelled with issue 75
Well this is some horseshit
How happy do you think this guy was when he first thought of this flawless title? FLAWLESS
Yeah, I’ve never quite got over the profound moral injury aspect of watching so many Americans absolutely refuse to even mildly sacrifice to help others during Covid - watching MAGAs somehow become even more evil was radicalizing.
And now the bastards are trying to destroy MRNA research.

Naming my security company after the giant evil eye that, crucially, was too distracted to see the actual threat sneaking in
As a point of contrast THE SHINING is not about a nice guy who gets possessed by evil forces at a hotel. It's scary because the hotel isn't suggesting to him anything he has not already considered (and in a fun detail, as much as he hates Wendy, he is resistant to killing Danny who he likes!)
HEREDITARY, for all its style, does not understand the difference between DOOM (in which a people are destroyed by an outside force and is a weak sauce source of horror because it's nonsense) and TRAGEDY (where people are destroyed because of their character and is the right source of horror)

Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog A weird thing is that whenever I post criticism of Al, the majority of the people agreeing with me seem to be leftists. It's pretty much the only position I hold that seems to be more popular with the left than the right. It should be the opposite. My whole point about Al (especially Al in creative fields) is that it isn't human, it doesn't have a soul, and we cannot surrender our society to an unhuman soulless algorithm even if it makes our lives easier in some ways. It's very strange that an argument predicated on the existence of the soul resonates with the left while conservatives tend to scoff at it. 3:02 PM • Mar 12, 2026 • 748.5K Views

Ted Cruz quote tweet says: "Tucker Carlson has turned into a deranged, Leftist psycho. Who loves sharia." original Tucker Carlson Network tweet: "The people in charge don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus. Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth go defeat the Antichrist. that's why Donald Trump's painting..."

As a community college professor for 20 years -- this is 100% correct
Hahahaha
what i would add is that while it presently Does feel good for us to hate, this should not be taken as a natural truth. This is something that Develops, and we'd do well to analyse why we think that is
This makes a lot of sense -- I always assumed the last thing I saw before I died was Nicole Kidman ushering me to the afterlife
