    Don’t people know they shouldn’t divulge their identifies on the internet? Or is it a rule only those of us of older generations who still have a concept of privacy and self-preservation apply?

      Especially with higher academia, they still think we live in a world where authority is respected.

      So given the choice between “anonymous account” and “Dr ____, Professor of ____ at ____” it shouldn’t be surprising they’re putting way too much info online.

      But yeah. Absolutely no one should be putting any of that info online.

      Right? I know I can get fired for that shit. We can’t even contact our representatives or post about anything political without asking the university first. You think they’d approve anything but lock-step fascist views? No. It’s not right, it’s horseshit, but you don’t need social media tied to your real life identity if it threatens your livelihood. If you have zero money, you can’t do anything to change that. Go ahead and try voting around here without a fucking permanent address.
