man who identifies himself as an instructor at the University of California-Berkeley publicly proclaimed Wednesday that Americans who live in rural areas are “bad people” who deserve “uncomfortable” lives.

Jackson Kernion, who describes himself as a Graduate Student Instructor at Berkeley, having taught at least 11 philosophy courses at the university since 2013, took to Twitter Wednesday to explain the academic reasoning behind his distaste for people from rural America, calling those who live in rural areas “bad people who have made bad life decisions.” ...

We are rural by choice. It is our dream home. We love it here because it is beautiful and because being so far in the boonies pretty much keeps idiots like this from ever crossing my path in real life.

Does this fool not understand that many rural areas are needed to produce the food his dumb arse eats?

He looks like the kind of boy who is scared of spending the night “outside of the city” without his 135 lb partner and their matching rubber bananas.

(A.B., cum laude, Philosophy, Harvard, 2012) Jackson is primarily interested in philosophy of mind, epistemology, and philosophy of science. He’s currently writing a dissertation on the concept of conscious experience, arguing for a certain kind of a priori functional constraint on experience. When not philosophizing, he likes to go hiking and keep up a coding hobby.
