shae - amazing2's video: why are academics so out of touch

@why are academics so out of touch?
three things make academics out of touch: 1. Lack of Democratic Knowledge: Academics often fail to engage with the popular topics and conversations that are common among the general public. This lack of engagement makes them seem disconnected from what most people find interesting or relevant, leading them to speak in ways that can exclude or alienate others. 2. Specialization and Opportunity Cost: By focusing intensely on their fields, academics develop specialized knowledge that comes at the cost of losing touch with broader societal conversations. Their training and work lead them to think in specific ways that are not always aligned with everyday discussions, making it harder for them to relate to non-specialists. 3. Translation and Communication Skills: Academics must learn how to translate their specialized knowledge into terms that resonate with the general public. This requires a skill set that they may not develop if they are deeply immersed in their academic work. The time spent specializing can prevent them from cultivating these communication skills, furthering the perception of being out of touch.
