I knew he had said problematic shit, but this is disturbing.

Among many other domestic terror groups who should be scaring the shit out of us as a nation.

We really need to avoid this thinking–again, one of Hayak’s concern about this particular prize–that any of it comes down to “one person” or one set of research.

Ah, gotcha. We’re talking at cross-purposes a bit I think.

Thank you for being civil through this; I genuinely appreciate that and it’s nice to meet someone else who cares about these issues.

If you’ll recall I did mention that postcolonial economists have been discussing this issue.

As a quick semi-aside: 20 years isn’t that long in academic research, and it’s especially not that long when we’re talking about colonialism/post-colonialism. It’s a tremendous amount of time in the hard sciences I’m told but it’s a mistake to apply that lens here.
