So-called 'standards' are socially constructed by a euro-centric phallo-centric white-supremacist colonialist patriarchal dialect, and they are constructed specifically to otherize the marginalized, the non-cisgendered, and all the BIPOCs except asians.

When I hear things like this I think of the Sokal Affair, and this gem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpzVc7s-_e8&pp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpzVc7s-_e8&pp

Thats a pretty strong statement. Can you elaborate on that a bit? Im not familiar with the US university standards, and while what you write seems like intuitively it could be true, based on the history of US, I'd be curious about specific examples of standards that cater to a particular race and gender.

    It's quite hard to tell it's sarcasm since they really do talk like that. Only "except asians" gave it away for me.

      Sounds like a skill issue, perhaps you should study the humanities to improve your analysis.
