It has been clear for years now that many academic elites are just political activists in disguise, but conservative commentator Steven Crowder just proved how easy it is to gain approval in the ivory tower.
On Monday, Crowder released a video recorded in 2020 that documented his journey to become an admired scholar in the prestigious field of “fat studies.”
While this may sound like a fabricated subject, Crowder said it is a real discipline, and experts hold an annual conference at Massey University in New Zealand.
In order to expose the lunacy of this entire field of study, Crowder disguised himself as an obese “genderqueer” person named Sea Matheson and wrote an essay entitled “Embracing Fatness as Self-Care in the Era of Trump.”
Crowder sent the essay to the organizer of the conference, Dr. Cat Pause, and she accepted his satirical report. She scheduled Sea Matheson to speak at the conference, which was held virtually due to coronavirus restrictions.
Crowder’s speech was about former President Donald Trump’s supposed “fatphobia.”
“Trump regularly engages in attacks on fat bodies, individuals,” Crowder said. “Trump is known to target women with his attacks, referring to women as having faces that are ‘fat’ or ‘ugly.'”
Crowder went on to make the argument that instead of letting these attacks get them down, obese women should embrace their fatness as a “distancing mechanism” from Trump and his supporters.
He made up a story about a man trying to fondle him when he was in college, and he said his fatness provided protection from the aggressor. It was this experience, Crowder said, that taught him to embrace his obesity.
“Fatness, embracing a fat identity, ensuring one is always already perceived to be a fat individual subject — these actions become performative acts of resistance.”

It takes a certain amount of INTELLIGENCE to recognize that these word salads are horrific attempts to be scientific. My accepted pronouns are LORD/MAJESTY.
Crowder made use of the buzz words of the pseudo-academics thereby becoming believable. Intellect has been truncated, nay, lopped off at the knees, by terms and phrases packed with ephemeral acknowledgement of imagined logic. I say ephemeral because definitions and meanings can change in a split second.
They nod their heads in agreement as if anyone understands what the hell is being said. This construct occurs when everyone gets to determine what is and is not reality.
These are the people who misunderstood the joke of inserting, 'If you read this, you're a jerk', in the middle of a ten page theme assigned by the cruel teacher in 7th grade.
To them it wasn't a joke. Now they made a career of it. They are the joke. However, the warning sounded by Crowder in real.
Have been fat all my life. It is a hard struggle. This Crowder vid is genius; those women are so full of feces they all must have brown eyes. All excuses for anything but doing something about it.
