@CharlotteCGill I mean this is actually useful history and thats funding over 5 years. That's the equivalent of paying 1.5 junior analysts at a bank to do actual historical research of a 500 year period and build a wealth of history of our country. Not everything you dislike is woke.
@CharlotteCGill The “anti woke” argument is that we should preserve our culture and heritage and not attack institutions/history is something we should be proud of. How do you do that if you dont study your history, culture and heritage?
@CharlotteCGill The free market wont fund this. So it has to be funding bodies. This is all basic social and economic policy that regardless of whether you lean left or right is obvious. But in the name of culture war, we will dismantle academic institutions just to “own the libs”.
@sidfix @CharlotteCGill Because “anti-woke” people are just giant hacks
