There’s seemingly a very weird division between what’s studied within and without the Anglosphere. Students on “the continent” study Freud, Lacan, Marx, and Hegel, but you will only hear these characters mentioned with contempt (if at all) in Amurka. We’re stuck instead with Plato, Foucault, and George Orwell lol.

One of these things is not like the other
I soured on Foucault when I found out about his relationship with children.
I don’t like giving bad news but this Plato dude…
