Thank you for your bravery in speaking up for freedom of thought and expression. I am someone who went to college to study Literature but was met instead with a dreary beast named Theory, whose practitioners believe that the purpose of books isn't to read for joy and enlightenment, but to be interrogated so the ideological crimes of the author are revealed and denounced. These so-called "Theorists" were able to conquer the Humanities through promiscuous use of bigotry accusations, while at the same time identifying themselves as the official protectors and spokespeople for the Oppressed, thus allowing them to paint any of their opponents as retrograde, possibly evil, bigots. And it worked perfectly! Within 2 generations they managed to capture just about our entire culture. (It was only many years later that I learned how much of these Theorists had borrowed, both in content and tactics, from Lenin and Mao). As for American Arts & Letters, I have little hope and believe the best work of the next generation will be done samizdat style (outside of official channels), but hopefully you can inspire people in STEM to fight back and maintain the integrity of their specialties. Otherwise we will all be in for a long, dark and grim Soviet winter.
