Derrida and the people he inspired, paraphrased:
Historically, white supremacy has venerated the idea of objectivity, and wielded a dichotomy of 'subjectivity vs. objectivity' as a means of silencing oppressed peoples. The idea that there is a single truth - 'the Truth' - is a construct of the Euro-West that is deeply rooted in the Enlightenment, which was a movement that also described Black and Brown people as both subhuman and impervious to pain.
This construction is a myth and white supremacy, imperialism, colonization, capitalism, and the United States of America are all of its progeny. The idea that the truth is an entity for which we must search, in matters that endanger our abilities to exist in open spaces, is an attempt to silence oppressed peoples. For the past several decades, people like Derrida have called reason into question, especially the sort of rationalist worldview that emerged in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. There is a direct path from the so-called Enlightenment to Auschwitz, and Donald Trump too.
It has nothing to do with class at all. It has to do with how smart you are. If you're not smart, you won't benefit from higher education, certainly post-graduate education. You have to be smart to even get in the door. Try to explain Tsiolkovsky's rocket equation and Kepler's laws of orbital mechanics to your average Trump voter. They will end up looking at you slack-jawed, then start screeching about emotions and feelings. The rocket equation doesn't care how you feel, either you produce enough delta-V and in the correct magnitude and direction, and you get to orbit, or you do not and instead fall back to earth. it's numbers and math and physics. Racists are well-known for their lack of intelligence. America is full of stupid, scared, fucked up sheep who tune into the Kardashians or reality TV for their enlightenment. Higher education won't benefit them.
Because he was an influential post-modernist thinker whose ideas were like corrosive acid to the fabric of the West.
Why do people have to be 100% pure? Can't they have some good ideas and some bad ideas, and you cherry-pick the good ones?
The overwhelming majority of society isn't intelligent enough for higher education. It would either be wasted on them, they would flunk out, or standards would have to be lowered so low as to make their jobs irrelevant or even harmful.
The women marry a loser, get the visa, come over and disappear. The existence of sanctuary cities isn't a secret, the whole world knows.
The State Department is super suspicious of international marriages due to all the loser white men with mail-order brides. High rates of fraud, likely to be denied.
Good luck getting a visa to enter. You can't just decide to move there, you have to have a reason: a job offer (requires 4 year degree, yes they call your university and check, the days of phony diplomas are long over), become a student (nobody over 30) or be married to one of their citizens.
Islamophobic hate crime?
It seems like that would be front and center in the coverage, though.
