"Universities now have more adjuncts than tenured and tenure-track professors combined. Many adjuncts make around $4,000 a course, and a quarter of adjuncts make less than $25,000 a year. In no city in the United States is this enough money to live off comfortably."

There was very little outcry when voicing support for trans people became a fireable offense for adjuncts. Now we're pretty much abandoning the principle that academic thought shouldn't be dictated by conservative governments.

Yes, let’s cut the bloated salaries of adjuncts who get paid $2000/class with no benefits. That’s why tuition is so high.

There are jobs for college instructors. They do require degrees. But the pay and the benefits are abysmal. Another take on the state of the academy:

it's comforting and easy to financialize markets to talk about these topics in a detached and seemingly rational manner but the world's ability to feed billions of people is predicated on a stable supply of Nitrogen adjuncts. It's genocidal via 2nd and 3rd order impacts

@grundrza.bsky.social also reflects on the fact that exploiting existing inequalities between tenure track and adjunct faculty makes it easier to implement censorship. Without workplace protections, adjuncts can't refuse to teach censored books.
