Another “quick takes” on items where there is too little to say to make a complete article, but is still important enough to comment on.
The focus this time: Eat the rich… literally.
First, a little soothing, dulcet mood music:
Carrying on…
Dissent can not be allowed, it is well known to Leftists, but even intermingling with the “other” is to be eschewed…
“American University has created a space for students of different identities to come together and foster a sense of community, but some students recently complained it’s too inclusive.
“The room, known as the Hub for Organizing Multiculturalism and Equity, or HOME, opened in November 2017 in the wake of alleged hate crimes against black students.
“More recently, a feature in The Eagle campus newspaper on the 1-year-old room detailed how some students are frustrated that officials allow students of any ethnicity to use it, rather than only students of color, and also that ‘several students said they viewed HOME as a response to their request for a black house.”
Of course something ought to be done…
After all, those icky thought criminals are “not even a person“…
“Many left-leaning students at the University of Washington-Seattle harbor feelings that Republicans and conservatives are ‘evil,’ ‘inhuman,’ or ‘not even a person,’ according to a new study led by a team of UW psychology professors.
“The study, “Improving Relations among Conservatives and Liberals on a College Campus,” set out to do just that: bring students from opposing sides of the political divide together in an honest attempt to cultivate empathy and understanding.
“The results, published November 10 in the Journal of Contextual Behavioural Science, should raise worry for any parent with a conservative kid in college.”
Why not only are they not human… they’re not even animals… thinks the bloodthirsty vegan…
The Red Guard of Communist China was when students were encouraged to not only denounce, but to humiliate and torture their teachers and professors, going so far as to require literal cannibalism.
“The Red Guards’ purity of mind—their youthful capacity for learning and openness to new ideas—also proved useful to Mao. Their plasticity was well-suited to the project of eradicating what was called ‘the Four Olds’: old customs, old culture, old habits, and old ideas. The Red Guards would impose a new symbolic order on an old world without the clutter or caution of life experience. Sometimes the results were comical. Since red symbolized the revolution, and the revolution must not stop, Red Guards demanded that vehicles drive rather than stop at red traffic lights. More often, the results were horrific. Because pet cats, dogs, fish, and even crickets became symbols of ‘bourgeois decadence,’ 1 they were slaughtered in their thousands. Eating human flesh became a macabre proof of loyalty. The Party’s own investigations tell of students in Guangxi province cooking and eating their teachers and principals. In some government cafeterias, the bodies of executed traitors were displayed on meat hooks, while their flesh was served and consumed. The blank slate, it seems, can also be a dark abyss. Indeed, the nature and scale of the harms caused by the Cultural Revolution, which I have only touched on here, almost defy comprehension.”
Pass the salt…
TTFN.
