That’s…that’s just word salad. I’ll try and break it down into components, and hopefully this will convince you that simply stringing together big words is not a good way to be understood.

but because they are predating upon the right of the public to be educated - Okay, so they’re occurring before the right of the public to be educated. Odd, but I guess you’re just being clear about timelines.

predate2 | prəˈdāt |

verb [with object]
(of an animal) act as a predator of; catch and eat (prey).

and upon the systemically-maintained economic precarity of academic researchers - The usage of ‘precarity’ appears to be a specific labor usage of the term to mean ‘economic precariousness or instability’. This isn’t really all that damning except for the lack of any context (which wasn’t there in my original reply).

“Damning” is specific to one’s ethical standpoint. You might want to savvy to the political locus of the frequenters of this forum. Academic labor has, if you have (a) been looking, and (b) had a pulse over the past four decades indeed become more precarious. That would include, among other things, the humongous shift towards soft-money and adjunct appointments.

in an increasingly defunded public education system. - Ah, these are words! I get these.

See! You can totally do this!

@falcon2001

So in short you used a lot of big words (at least one incorrectly)

Look, I get that you are threatened by lexical sophistication, but if you are not up to the heat, stay the fuck out of the kitchen.

@falcon2001

but in doing so failed to make any sort of actual solvent point until your edits provided context.

Try again… with practice comes literacy.

@falcon2001

Being snippy when I point out that you basically slammed a thesaurus into the word editor and then linked the wrong youtube video doesn’t really do you any credit.

Being illiterate and driving trollies me does you no credit either. Kindly cease interacting with me in this forum.
