''Jennifer Freyd, a psychologist at the University of Oregon has an amazing theory called Institutional Betrayal. The idea being that when an institution is charged with caring for us, and it betrays us, we experienced a type of trauma that we do not see elsewhere. Betrayal by those charged with caring for those who cannot care for themselves directly, like a surgeon in an operating room, causes something terrible to happen. And I've only slightly improved it, which is the concept of '''Universal Institutional Betrayal'''. No one has a concept of that. And that's the whole idea behind the [[Embedded Growth Obligation|Embedded Growth Obligations]]. I don't want to have to explain why T.J.Maxx and Yale are having the same problems. In general, what's going on is that we have this concept of an Embedded Growth Obligation, everything has to grow, or it goes crazy because it becomes a Ponzi scheme. And so we were used to this, we didn't have a Plan B. And now we've got ''Universal'' Institutional Betrayal, because every institution has to be headed by somebody who's comfortable with the idea that they're going to be running a Ponzi scheme, if they can't make growth happen. There very few institutions that are continuing to grow endogenously and organically at a real at a real level.''

|content=@RadioFreeTom @SamHarrisOrg Oh cool. [[Universal Institutional Betrayal|“Institutional Betrayal”]] is an academic theory for trauma differentiation of @jjforegon. You in particular should find it interesting I think. People betrayed by institutions with mandates to care for them behave differently re trauma.
 
Helps to explain a lot in 2008-17.

|content=@RadioFreeTom @SamHarrisOrg Nah. It’s about [[Universal Institutional Betrayal|institutional betrayal]]. Nobody resents Elon Musk or Tony Stark for wealth. The poor want experts.
 
And I’m just looking to you &amp; Sam as my fellow experts to help me try to stop those betrayed from sending a wrecking-ball through the infrastructure of our world.

|content=We need to open a channel for our smarter students without trust funds to skip the insanely expensive and politicized administrator’s degree: the BA or BS.
 
Educators. Ha. These are activists.

|content=I commend @tedmccoy for having the temporary courage to say plainly what other activist professors hide.
 
I have been encouraging my 14YO to skip college. This is pointless [[Universal Institutional Betrayal|institutional betrayal]] of our students. Graduate school in the hardest science still functions. For now.

|content=If you can believe it many of us who hold these degrees are looking at our institutions and saying “Wait. You are unilaterally diluting, devaluing &amp; adulterating the insane and impossible standards to which you held me *after* you tortured me to get the credential?”
 
But they do.

|content=You aren’t getting it. I actually have TWO sets of business cards: the one’s I run out are the ones *without* PhD printed on them.
 
That’s not how it should be. But overproduction of low agency PhD drones for jobs that don’t exist has degraded my credential as a signaling device.

|content=I have spoken to Jennifer who I last saw in the 1980s. I insisted we boost her theory and she agreed to let me introduce you to her. This is one of the most complicated and important stories that no one is tracking at an appropriate level.
 
This article is backstory. Pls Read it.

|content=At the beginning of The Portal I introduced you to @timurkuran &amp; his theory of preference falsification.
 
This year I want to introduce you to Prof. @jjfreydcourage and her theory of [[Universal Institutional Betrayal|Institutional Betrayal]]. It will change your understanding of everything.
