MF went off his meds, seriously --- I told you it wouldn't be long before he had a relapse.
At BuzzFeed, "Controversial “Feminist” Hugo Schwyzer Has a Very Public Meltdown."
It's all still up in his feed.
I'll be fine, and I'll dump in some tranquilizers in a sec. But let the truth come out. The critics were right.

I know I did a little bit of good. I know I helped a few people. But I did so much more harm by being fraudulent, by lying.

My former friends and employers, I'm sorry. I meant well but I didn't have the credentials I pretended I did.

By the way do you know you only need a MA in history to teach any history course you like? That's the law.

At least in my college.

So I got diagnosed bipolar with psychotic features but damn the Seroquel knocks me flat and I wanted to FEEL alive again

So I will be okay. I'll go offline again. Just a manic episode that I'll regret. But I've been such a liar. A terrible liar.

I hurt so many people with lies.

I was never qualified to teach any gender studies courses. I talked my way into all these gigs.

And at Cosmopolitan, "Hugo Schwyzer, 'Feminist' Professor, Is Having a Twitter Breakdown."
Folks were calling him out, alleging his account had been hacked. He was DM'ing people to prove it was real.
Louise Mensch was online at the time.
I hope somebody is near, and can help, Hugo Schwyzer. Twitter has been an outlet used in mental breakdowns before.

It doesn't read like a hack, it reads like a man having a dangerous mental health episode. If you know @hugoschwyzer offline please help him

This also says something about the profession, and community colleges in particularly, where an unhinged academic hack can turn poseur and wreak havoc across all the feminist "space."
