It's not about judging her life. It's about the fact that her life story, as presented by the article, does not support the article's premise.

- jrochkind1 8y agoI don't think anyone that is, has been, or knows someone who got a PhD in the past decade+ and tried for an academic career -- finds her story at all unusual, or thinks from what we've been told that it would likely have been different if _she_ had done something different. Almost anyone familiar with how it works will find her story familiar and familiarly awful. Almost nobody familiar with how it works will think "if I had been in her place it would have ended up differently." This is how it is.
