Seeing even "humanities" people post so much about saving the INFORMATION of science and really not at all about the humans who are scientists does convince me that our culture is fundamentally utilitarian and transactionally dehumanizing; you are nothing but an object, you are nothing but your intellectual value to others

I have had trouble articulating exactly why I find a certain kind of humanities perspective very dehumanizing in a completely different way than the "STEM thinking" that's often critiqued in more lefty social media; I think part of it is because unlike many people on lefty social media I actually have experienced profoundly rightwing liberal arts and the type of vicious humanities that can drive philosophical takeovers of institutions and thought (e.g., law)
