Nice catch! He must have realized the real motivations behind Critical Theory (a torch that was passed from Psychoanalysis to the Frankfurt School) and once you know this stuff you can't un-know it, and all of the will you once had for teaching goes away with the realization one has been utterly duped.
EDIT: Now that I've read the piece, the author seems unaware he was duped. He says "Activism informed my teaching" which would be a very damning quote had he known the motivations of those behind Critical Theory. He must have really just drunk the kool-aid without questioning, as they're taught to do (otherwise they're "authoritarian"!).
