LITERALLY every fucking book for students out there is written in the most incomprehensible, stupid way. What the fuck is wrong with this fucking country? I swear to God, I just fucking cheat on every exam, not even Einstein can comprehend these garbage college textbooks. Anyone going through something similar?

Also, in the real world smart people use tricky language to abuse idiots, so it’s in your best interest to learn to navigate jew speak

Leftist control of academia creates overly wordy essays, books, and research.
That is really all there is to it. If we were in control, the writing would be succinct and easy to understand.

formalization and abstraction is an appeal to authority that gives them more gravitas. also increases the length of the book = more money.

There are very few people with independent thought. Those without have few ways to express their own intelligence to others. Using unnecessarily complex language and verbiage is one of the more common ways, and probably the most common in academia.

American writers are paid per words, while in the rest of the world, they are paid for the quality of the book.

it really depends on program/instructor/school... some instructors recycle old exams.. and there are student groups that keep them in their "records" for other generations of students... ive seen all levels from very little cheating to rampant cheating (usually from international students).. it just boils down to if the instructor cares enough to change exams and monitoring

the patriarchy does not exist. this guy is going to go down a hole that either ends up with him being in 4 places.

1. Hyper extreme leftist
2. Hyper extreme right wing after mental breakdown with mood swinging as extreme as his political switching to the extreme ends.
3. Centrist with balanced opinions going left or right when needed.
4. Transgender and mentally unstable for years.

US universities have "take home exams", "open book exams", and "cheat sheets". Most classes are also extremely easy (at least in EE).
It's a fucking joke, only a retard would cheat here.

Had this one black professor that asked this question. I answer the question right, but he wanted the specific mumbo jumbo term to communicate basically the same concept that I outlined in simpler words. He basically argued for the backwards version of "if you can say it in simpler words that means you actually know what you're talking about". He actually thought that if you use big words to describe the same thing that could easily be described in simpler terms it makes you smarter.

like your post, retard? Just say people like to use big words to show off. There's no need to talk about "unnecessarily complex language and verbiage". Jesus Christ. Are you mentally deficient? Is your intelligence inadequate? Are you a fucking retard?

Academic books are written in academic language.

Consider the following: maybe you need to try harder.

as students they met word limits with word salads and then they became professors. also most can't code which teaches you to distill the meaning of what you want to achieve to its most efficient form
