ROGER KIMBALL: Admirable Evasions and the ‘Psychopathic Problem’ at Yale.

“I had fantasies of unloading a revolver into the head of any white person that got in my way, burying their body, and wiping my bloody hands as I walked away relatively guiltless with a bounce in my step.”

Will that be on the exam?

Yale, like most of the best and most prestigious educational institutions today, is a bastion of woke identity politics.

Increasingly, it substitutes the new “planetary influences” of race, the “spherical predominance” of exotic sexuality for the more pedestrian talismans of learning, intellectual rigor, and civic responsibility.

In this sense, Dr. Khilanani is more a symptom than a cause of the disease.

She embodies, to be sure, an ugly and repellent expression of the sickness that is ravaging our elite institutions.

But the cause is in the spirit that would not only allow but actually celebrate such disgusting performances as “The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind.”

Remember, this was not at some wacko fringe grotto but at Yale University, operating in this instance as an agent for the State of Connecticut.

People like Dr. Khilanani should be watched closely but, after being ostracized from any contact with the vulnerable, ignored.

It’s institutions like Yale and the regulatory apparatus of the state that need to be exposed and then dismantled.

Granted, it is a tall order.

Prudent people will give Dr. Khilanani a wide berth. But she has done us all a service by showing us the alternative.

Why are Democrat Party monopoly institutions such cesspits of racism?
