We miss you, Uncle Joe!
I know–this is sort of like reporting that the Pope is Catholic.
A Yale professor declared, “Life was better under the Soviets” and that “everybody” she knows, who came to America from former communist countries, found our “neo-capitalist” system “inhuman,” blah-blah-blah (https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13431).
She was just getting warmed up. She went on to proclaim “Whiteness is terrorism,” white men “have no awareness of others,” and should all be sent to “re-education” camps (because that will stop gun violence, don’t you know). Feel the love.
What do you want to bet none of the social media ever bans or censors this venom-spitting racist jerk?
Defund the universities now! What sense does it make to use public money to raise up a generation that hates our country and wants to turn it into a communist hell-hole?
That jidrool at Yale is doing it on your dime, people.

Far Left Crazy students at Williams College, Massachusetts, are trying to deter the college from allowing free speech (https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13425).
Watch the way they’ve learned to use words. “They want to kill us with hate speech.” Is that a new martial art I never heard of? “Bringing in certain speakers”–that is, conservative speakers–is tantamount to “violence.” If this keeps up, normal people won’t understand a word these students say.
They gave a standing ovation to a speaker who said “Colleges should write rules on stone on who can and cannot speak on campus.” Any of these student’s heads would suffice for a writing surface. They also applauded the speaker’s assertion that no “opinions” should ever be uttered on campus–“only factual speech.” You don’t need me to tell you how illogical that is, do you? I mean, like, “no opinions allowed” is… well, an opinion. And a stupid opinion at that.
College officials and staff are trying to bring free speech to Williams College, but the snowflake students are powerfully riled up against it. That’s what their, uh, education has done for them.
Cut to the chase–defund the colleges. There’s no way America benefits from raising up a whole generation of neo-Stalinists.
We’ve not only clutched a viper to our nation’s bosom. We’re hatching the viper’s eggs.

Complete the sentence and win a tin foil hat: “I believe everybody ought to go to college because __________.”
Meanwhile, at the Looniversity of Portland, if you see any kind of “interaction of intolerance” that makes you feel just a teeny bit uncomfortable, they’re advising you to… call the police!

Kampus Kops battling microaggressions. What a thriller that’d make.
“Ooh-ooh, officer, I just saw somebody tearing up an American flag and it made me feel soooo uncomfortable–!”
No, no. They’ll only act if it was the Rainbow Gay Rights Weird Sex Flag that you saw somebody disrespecting.
Defund the colleges now. All of them.

Would you believe it? Some two-thirds of American employees regret having earned college degrees–mostly because it cost them so much and rewarded them so little (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/two-thirds-of-american-employees-regret-their-college-degrees/).
Persons working in jobs requiring STEM degrees (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math)–also known as real stuff–are much less dissatisfied than those who ponied up for degrees in liberals arts or social sciences.
The debt hanging over their heads for years and years is the leading reason for regretting having gone to college; but in second place is the graduate’s “area of study.” Well, yeah–what are you supposed to do with your master’s degree in Superhero Studies? It was all right while you were at college partying and getting wasted every other night; but now that you’re sweeping the floor at the 7-11 and earning the minimum wage, that degree doesn’t look like such a hot idea.
And guess what! America’s aggregate student loan debt is now around $1.6 trillion! But not to worry–Democrat/Socialist presidential wannabe Bernie Sanders has proposed the government just tax Wall Street trading to pay off the debt.
If you think that’s a good idea, think again. Debt can never be wiped out–only shifted onto someone else. And who winds up standing at the bottom of the hill, when all this s*** rolls down? You, sunshine–the undefended taxpayer! ‘Cause there’s no way Wall Street’s just gonna swallow a $1.6 trillion s*** sandwich. This tab will be passed on to the public, one way or another.
Oh–and Bernie also proposes universal free college: everybody goes to college (everybody’s already going, but never mind), absolutely free!
We’re gonna need another trillion dollars.

He’s on the right side of history!
Why choose between wickedness and folly as the foundation for your whole society, when you can have both?
https://leeduigon.com/2015/09/15/chowderhead-quote-of-the-week/
Comedian Sarah Silverman says we should always follow “the college-aged” because they’re always “on the right side of history.” Have you noticed that the people who really like to use that phrase never know any history at all? Their ignorance, carefully cultivated by the public schools, is truly profound.
Anyway, that’s the folly part. The wickedness is supplied by many sources.

I think at this point we are entitled, if not obliged, to ask, “Just was is college supposed to do for students?” I mean, they call it “higher education,” but who’s getting educated?
And so, because they’re ignorant, foolish, and flighty, they panic when they see a Catholic priest and think it’s a Ku Klux Klan guy.

Can you imagine going into World War II with these? The D-Day invasion would have pulled up lame at Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Again, what are all those colleges supposed to do?
Search me!

Guilty as charged!
Looks like they might have to raise the tuition and fees at Oberlin College, Ohio.
A court has ordered the college to pay a total of $44 million dollars to a family-owned bakery which the college libeled as “racist,” etc.–$11 million for the libel, and another $33 million in punitive damages (https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13332).
We rejoice.
In 2016 a “minority” student was caught shoplifting at Gibson’s Bakery. When Mr. Gibson followed the thief out the door, the thief’s playmates jumped him and beat him up. To college authorities this was a clear indication that Mr. Gibson and his whole family were a nest of racists who needed to be publicly, loudly, and frequently denounced by the gang at Oberlin.
That’ll be $44 million, please!
Our leftist-saturated colleges have been getting away with stuff like this for far too long. I guess it’s to be expected from yoinks who “teach” that there’s no such thing as truth or facts, only “constructs,” “your truth,” “my truth,” blah-blah-blah. Smackdowns like the judge just administered to Oberlin are very sorely needed.
If we can’t reform them, we can at least teach them that the tuition for libel is going up.

Do you ever wonder why it seems that colleges and looniversities are staffed by kooks and wackos–and then realize that’s because they’re staffed by kooks and wackos? How are they able to find so many nuts?
https://leeduigon.com/2016/06/20/where-do-the-nutty-professors-come-from/
I have been told by a most authoritative source: they seek them out. That’s right–they want highly disturbed individuals to do the teaching. Why? With that I can’t help you.
It really has gotten to the point that the colleges and looniversities constitute a threat to the survival of our republic. They must be defunded. Now.
