Isn't that any correction? changing the status quo is about as purely political as it gets
- ninth_ant 2y agoAll changes to the status quo can have political repercussions. But there is a difference between a change that is a byproduct of someone trying to do what is right in a given situation vs a change that someone is making directly relating to external ideological processes. For this example, was the decision made by academics who analyzed the situation and felt that some aspects of study were underfunded? Or was it outsiders who entered the process with a specific objective and didn’t bother with the details so long as their ideological objectives were achieved? Both are “politics” but they aren’t the same.
