Forget DEI. We prefer HIE Homogeneity Inequity Exclusion. Don't hate the player, hate the game (Classics)
We could be inclusive, we just don't want to.
Here at Antagonist we champion freedom of speech, unless your opinions aren't in line with ours, in which case our junior editor will disparage you within an inch of your life.
So let’s talk about neocon funding in classics outside Paideia (obvs). In this thread I have some tangible proof of funding for Antigone, which presents as neutral, from the right. Ralston College, a neotraditional operation is being actively promoted by @AntigoneJournal (1/5)
One of our editors is getting married this weekend, and what a lovely bride. It's hard to believe that it was only 5 years since he was marking her undergrad assignments, and 27 years since he was writing undergrad assignments... congratulations to the happy pair.
BFFs, obviously
If you read The Secret History and think "that's the kind of unproblematic and well-adjusted educational setting for me," enrol at Ralston today!
They want to know why you're following us. A better question might be why are you following them?
Classics as a field used to be peerless, until we started letting activist scholars in.
More wokery. ONLY READ IF YOU CARE ABOUT OTHER HUMAN BEINGS. Which we don't.

Of course we're not eugenicists. We just think they're neat.
I heard the most unholy clamour in my seminar this week and was confused. One of my students was able to explain that his classmate isn't a howler monkey, but that they have a northern accent. Horrid.

@socket8333 Attack their views, not their appearance.
It's hard to top Tamir, but Julia Steinberg has penned article after article lambasting pro-Palestinian activists for the student-run newspaper @StanfordReview. Before Kevin, she was the first to cry in Congress about how she's a victim while Gazans were bombed and starved.
Current IDF student Tamir Ovedya. He physically assaulted (shoved) two Palestinian students at Stanford, one of whom is my friend. Can you believe violent members of terrorist organizations like him are allowed on campus, yet they make a big deal about "pro-Hamas" protestors?
This one doesn't need an explanation. It's the nepo baby himself: Theo Baker. In his Atlantic hit piece against me, he acted as if he left my CS section due to my views, when in fact, that occurred months before I started my activism. linkedin.com/in/theo-baker/
Out of respect for Nourya Cohen, I won't post her picture. She was nice at first, but I'm almost certain that she played a huge part in illegally recording and baiting me with dangerous questions, like "would you want Biden to be killed?"
Next up: Hannah Levin. This undergrad in CS tried to get me fired from my TA-ship in a huge CS class, simply for protesting her pro-genocide tent OUTSIDE of the classroom. Naturally, Stanford ignored her (And in fact, I got an offer to TA that class the following quarter).
Next is his girlfriend, Michelle Karlsberg. She was very triggered by my "Ask Me About Jihad" sign. I also recall her saying she was not a white girl because she's hispanic... Anyway, she was active with the pro-genocide and Islamophobic tent. linkedin.com/in/michelle-ka…
First one is obvious: Kevin Feigelis. Founder of the pro-genocide Blue and White Tent. Very Islamophobic and ignorant individual. Doxxed many pro-Palestinian students, including myself, and pretended he was a victim in front of Congress. linkedin.com/in/kevin-feige…
Today, I received word from Stanford that they will not discipline the students who illegally recorded and doxxed me in clear violation of the University Code of Conduct. My takeaway from this is that I should be allowed to doxx them too. Bismillah, here we go!🧵
Guys…. There’s a man next to me in this bar, who’s speaking English with a really heavy foreign accent. But when his mate left for a few minutes he had a call in what is obviously his actual English accent. WHAT IS HE DOING AND WHY
So let’s talk about neocon funding in classics outside Paideia (obvs). In this thread I have some tangible proof of funding for Antigone, which presents as neutral, from the right. Ralston College, a neotraditional operation is being actively promoted by @AntigoneJournal (1/5)
Ralston doesn’t take federal funding so they can impose “traditional western values” and discriminate. They’re affiliated with Jordan Peterson and David Butterfield, a former Cambridge classicist who is on @AntigoneJournal’s team and just announced he is going to Ralston. (2/5)
The Edelman Family Foundation is funded by Joseph Edelman, who launched a hedge fund money backed anti trans group across the US to target trans people with legislation (4/5): sg.news.yahoo.com/billionaire-he…
This is just ONE of many links between @AntigoneJournal and right wing, anti-gay, conservative, and anti-feminist funding in America. Ask yourself: do you want to write for or read content sponsored by the American right wing? Ralston is the tip of the funding iceberg here. (5/5)
@Robin_C_Douglas @AntigoneJournal Antigone promotes Ralston actively. Have you seen their other editors, whom they don't have a masthead for? Solveig Gold for instance. Antigone claims to be a scholarly pub, but its editorial board seems to have a conservative agenda and it hides it.
@Robin_C_Douglas @AntigoneJournal Are you okay with Antigone promoting an institution that is openly anti-trans and affiliated with beliefs like those of Butterfield and Peterson? Would you like to be published alongside that promotion? They should disclose to their readers and writers if they do have an agenda.
@Robin_C_Douglas @AntigoneJournal I'm looking into it but they are not registed as a 501c3 OR a charity with Companies House (extremely suspicious, actually), so it's hard to find financial disclosures. What I can find is many of their editors directly being funded by the American right.
@Robin_C_Douglas @AntigoneJournal Notably, the Edelman Family Fund, which funds Butterfield at Ralston now, ALSO funds Bari Weiss' little neocon fake university.
@Robin_C_Douglas @CharlesJSturge @BretDevereaux Anyone is welcome to DM me for a different secret list (it’s just a link to the Cheesecake Factory menu)
@Robin_C_Douglas @CharlesJSturge @BretDevereaux Their secret list is just a public list? 😂
