How To Know If You're A Fascist - Lessons From Yale & Mizzou
Submitted by Bill Barlow via The Harvard Law Record,
Usually, we at Harvard are more than happy to see Yale students make fools of themselves on camera. The video that emerged this week of Yale students screaming down one of their professors might make for a good laugh, if its implications were not quite so serious. It’s a scene we’ve seen played out far too often at college campuses in recent years, and it deserves to be called by what it is: a nascent form of fascism.
In case you haven’t heard, Yale has recently endured a firestorm of protest after a lecturer that presides over one of the undergraduate colleges questioned whether concerns about the offensiveness of Halloween costumes had gone too far in impinging on free speech.
In response, hundreds of protesters gathered on the quad, calling for Nicholas and Erika Christakis to be removed from their roles. Nicholas voluntarily came to discuss the matter with them, and soon, a crowd of students enveloped him.
The video is chilling.
One student is heard saying, “Walk away. He doesn’t deserve to be listened to.” When Nicholas started to explain himself, a student yells, “Be quiet!” and then proceeds to lecture him. When Nicholas calmly and politely says “I disagree,” the protestor explodes, screaming, “Why the fuck did you accept the position?! Who the fuck hired you?! You should step down!” Then, finally, “You’re disgusting!”
The problem here isn’t that people disagree with what Nicholas said. The problem is that they are calling for reprisals against Nicholas and Erika simply for saying it. This recent movement of university students to use administrative procedures to punish speech with which they disagree should be called by its rightful name: proto-fascism.
Several days later, students disrupted an event held by the William F. Buckley, Jr. program that was designed to highlight the importance of free speech. According to reports by the Yale Daily News, several attendees were spat on as they left.
Once again, the problem isn’t that you disagree with what the event said (though, if you disagree with an event about the importance of free speech, that might be a cause for concern itself), but that you are using a tactic—spitting—that constitutes battery, and should never be used against someone for expressing beliefs that you disagree with.
I understand that it can sometimes be difficult for college students today to tell the difference between fascist methods and non-fascist methods of advancing their beliefs and agendas. Luckily, I spent my senior thesis studying the rise of fascism in Europe, and am happy to give a few, easy tips about whether the activity you are engaged in adopts fascist tactics or not. To make it even easier, I’ve put it in table form:
Of course, this isn’t an exhaustive list, but it’s a good starting point. Ask yourself the question: Am I calling for people to be officially sanctioned because of what they believe, or am I committing a crime against someone because of what they believe? If the answer is yes, you are probably engaging in fascist tactics.
Given the public outcry, it seems that the majority of people, including the majority of progressive liberals, believe that Yale students calling for the resignation of those professors have gone too far in punishing free speech. The problem is that no one is willing to stand up to them. If we are going to begin anywhere, we are going to begin by calling them by their rightful name.
They are fascists.
They are fascists.

They are not warriors.
There is NO fascism in the actions of these out of control chimps.
Fascism is corporate/ business based.
Wasn't it a football players' strike that doomed the fellow at MU? Football is big business. That's why they got results.
Abso-fucking-lutely.
Starve the NCAA, and the NFL and NBA for that matter....and yank your honkey runts out of these cesspools and get them in a trade schools or tech schools. Tear up your Alumni Membership.
Do this and colleges and universities are done.
We've got way more important shit to deal with than watching jungle bunnies play games on tv. I don't know what it takes to get your average redneck to suss that.
These are merely the wretched spawn created by these exaulted worthless institutions of higher learning! Looks good on them! I love watching the parasites consume each other! Call on that oppressed and disrespected Ferguson mob to loot and burn down the faculty buildings just like they did to all those minority businesses!
If someone spits on you and you don't immediately blast them in the face - or worse - you deserve to be spit on.
Spat on.
But perhaps you were "educated" with "negros" and "wetbacks", which should make you spitting pi$$ed that they received the same "quality" of "education" that you received.
It's called the Rockefeller-Rothschild "Great Leveling", and it has succeeded beyond what the principals of that syndicate could have dreamed possible.
But they're not yet finished leveling.
Congratulations.

Spit upon.
We stick them in day care at a tender age and put nonsense into their heads till they are in their early twenties so what does anyone expect?
After all these high priced 'expert' educators were paid for by the 'people' and school boards and what not were 'voted' in by the people and some clown who couldn't make it on main street determined their curriculum.
It is not the students fault.
Look in the mirror and you will be seeing the guilty party.
Just think - in a decade, the DUMBEST generation will be running things. Oh joy! In the meantime, I'm going to corner the market in Gatorade since after all, the world will need something to water its crops with.
It's got electrolytes...

I picked fruit summers in orchards from ages 11 to 14- bag boy in grocery store school nights two years 14-16. 2 years cook in restaurant 3-4 school nights a week and some weekends. Slaughter house kill floor one summer. One summer in a plastics coating plant average temperature 102 on the plant floor. One summer drywall hanger/helper and a summer painting houses.
If Americans are refusing to do any work it is one simple reason. We have made it too easy for people to not work and still eat. Hunger is a great motivator. Work is a four letter word ; get the fuck over it .
Want to change the country? Do away with fractional reserve banking . Reduce all food stamp payment amounts by 65%. Do it tomorrow. Reduce all federal employee wages by 45%. Do it tomorrow. Eliminate all government employee pensions at all levels. Do it tomorrow. Eliminate Medicaid except for the mentally handicapped or legitimate physical handicaps. Eliminate all public employee unions at all levels.
Aw F it . It's bed time. I have to work tomorrow.
Soros shills in training. Add one keg and all is well. Fickle little lost souls.
Burn down all the faculty buildings and give Amerika a freakin' break ok kids?
Do they go into their dorms after these protest and shoot porn?
There is a lot of amateur porn out there.
Maybe they're angry about all the loads that have been shot into their faces.
Really interesting that members of faculty or administration are denigrated for not coddling these narcissistic overwrought children who seem to have no interest in becoming adults. They demand emotional "safe places". At the same time, there appears almost no recognition in the MSM that the chancellor of UC Merced and the sheriff both may have had prior notification that the stabbing asssailant, Faisal Mohammad, was on a jihadi watch list. If so, these two persons in responsible positions failed to provide a "safe place" from a known threat of physical harm. The sheriff claimed that islam had nothing to do with Faisal Mohammad's actions. The chancellor claimed that there is no reason to believe that the event was related to terrorism.
http://www.mcntvnews.com/was-law-enforcement-and-uc-chancellor-aware-of-...
Since their responses have been politically correct, they both may be able to get away with this with no blowback.
The case is being turned over to the FBI.
The last time the West had the relative extent of "feminization" and "Zionization" (not that there's anything wrong with that, so said Seinfeld) was prior to the French and Russian Revolutions that resulted in Napoleon and Stalin coming to power, and following WW I during the Weimar Republic, the collapse of which resulted in Herr Hitler and his Brown-shirt Nazis coming to power, thanks to The City and Wall St. funding an intellectual-warrior and his thugs to oppose Stalinism in order to sustain Wall St., The City, and Anglo-American empire.
It's all good if your a rentier-socialist imperialists in the top 0.001-1%, but not so much if you're in the bottom 80-90%, and eventually in the bottom 99%.
You're not your. But I won't speculate as to where or with whom you were educated.
He uses it correctly later in the sentence, but I won't speculate as to whether or not you read that far.
The author of this article is confusing fascism with neurosis.
I believe that Mussolini's definition of fascism is quite a bit more accurate.
The students in the video are displaying signs of narcissistic personality disorder. The Mayo Clinic offers the following definition of the disorder: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-d...
On that Web page is the following definition:
Leftism and Fascism might as well be synonymous. Wanting more government control, and more control in general is the very definition of Fascism. This is why many communist governments were dictatorships. Democracy, Socialism, Fascism, Communism, these words are simply measurements of government authority and when government authority grows too powerful it is the common man that suffers. When the common man signs his vote to increase government power he signs the bill to his own misery and history will show that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
In reply to shadow:
Yeah, what can you expect from a fascist society that lauds the fascist concept of being “exceptional and indispensable”?
The USA is no longer a Democratic nation with a Free Enterprise System of Capitalism economy; we are a Washington Empire fascist society that is brainwashing American children to be fascist. The American children were not raised in a Democracy but in a fascist society.
A Harvard law professor just committed the "everything I don't like is fascism" fallacy. In reality, though what he's describing is not atypical of historical fascists, it is unequivocally definitive of communists, and simply not unique or particular to any species of statism ... it's just plain old (self-)righteous intolerance, which is no more especially fascist than secret police, domestic spying, or political parades.
Ever get sick of the word Fascist?
Just call 'em fags. It's what they are.
University is not an intellectual space...
What?
With people like that in it, that might be becoming more true!
This is hands down the best site on the internet. Next time I deal with one of them they will know what they are and what facsism is.
Some of these young radicals are so far down the Marxist rabbit hole they are beyond hope. Pray they don't find a charismatic leader who can truly organize them because they are total mayhem waiting to happen.
just a "little red book" away from jaws of hell
Fascist: (n.) Someone who, when a communist or a banker tries to dictate to him, shoots back.
But what if its someone dealing with a Zionist deep state and absurdly powerful Israel Lobby trying to dictate to him?
'Antisemite' - right?
How odd how that works.
Fascism is the right wing populist reaction to this. Meaning, most of you assholes who comment on here.
We are mostly libertarians FYI.
Speak for yourself!
American students don't study history which is why they're so stupid.
Stinking Red Guards from China's Cultural Revolution.
when the upper middle classess see their worlds slip out from under them, then you know it's game over.
don't just blame current college students. i have seen the same attitude in professional people under thirty. if you ever want a lively discussion, assert that feelings are a personal problem and not your problem and you will have people spitting at you in seconds.
You lost me after "we at Harvard".
Ha! You made me laugh out loud..., at you.
I think that I have finally found my motorcycle patch and it is this... http://www.thecheapplace.com/biker-patches/no-club-no-rules-just-ride-pl4547
What do you folks think? Even the Mrs. likes it. The patch has everything I want. Gold silver and no statist flags. That is my style and it is anything but fascist/statist. I like the DILLIGAF top rocker but it might be too small. DILLIGAF means "Does It Look Like I Give A Fuck". I still want a ZeroHedge top rocker though but maybe that doesn't work. One thing at a time I guess. That website has a nice a FTW patch that could go on my shoulder. I am going to make my leather my own because I am NOT a fascist/statist. One thing is for sure though, no one in the world will have a jacket like mine and that is because I am an individual with my own ideas be they right or be they wrong.
I will wear it to some school board meetings where you usually can't say anything because there is no public input allowed. Many city council meetings are this way as well unless you request speaking time ahead of time. My leather will speak for itself and I won't have to say a word. Just stare at the board members with no expression on your face and don't say a word. I have already gotten attention without saying a word other than a "hello".
Infantile. You asked.
This stuff does not take place in a vacuum. I’m having trouble believing these actions are taking place on college campuses for the reasons reported. I.E. Micro Aggressions, un-intentional racism, insensitive costumes, a safe place against ucky stuff, etc.
I would be looking for agent’s provocateur and some sort of organized disruption agenda. Getting all riled up about what amounts to flea infestations while millions of Americans are being turned out of their homes and the safety nets are being ripped out from under them surely doesn't play well and certainly serves to distract.. Of course the savings on the safety nets pay for the imperial designs of the too rich elite. Meanwhile, the over priced health care system is crumbling and the neocons are poking nuclear armed bears with sharp sticks while attention is being mis directed toward micro aggressions and Halloween costumes.
These much ado about nothing protests certainly keeps these kids out of the kind of trouble that brought on the dumbing down agenda in American Universities after American students raised by their parents with good moral values became “over educated” during the sixties in our formerly great education system. Too much education, especially in the Liberal Arts taught these kids to think and what the U.S. was really doing around the world. Then with the good values they had been taught the kids set about doing crazy things like stopping wars and ruining Daddy Warbucks big money parade. The Elite were not pleased.
The response was a 1975 report, “A Crisis of Democracy" - On the Governability of Democracies" to The Trilateral Commission. The report was written by Samuel P. Huntington, Michel Crozier and Joji Watanuki and directed by none other than Zbigniew Brzezinski.
The report’s authors decided that all the hell that was raised in the 60s and early 70s was the result of too much education of too many people and that they were thinking too much. Worst of all, they were acting on their well informed thoughts. This made them hard (for the elite) to govern. Thus began the great dumb down and most state colleges became more like fancy trade schools whereas the elite schools maintained the liberal arts tradition with obvious limits.
This much ado about nothing student activism would seem to act to insure that the students are too busy to start raising hell about anything of real consequence. Since the Liberal Arts has been downplayed for almost 50 years now the students with out guidance from “Liberal" professors are much easier targets for this kind of manipulation and often end up giving protest a bad name.
Thus we have a win, win, win, situation for our elite Fascist rulers.
Fuck harvard. A harvard 'A' is an Amherst B-.
http://youtu.be/NiRJaa1wbzg
Part of the problem is the harvard/yale arrogance and entitlement and its conveyer belt into the us .gov. ( Leaving aside science majors - and I dont myself include economics in that).
You have these networks of people who think they are the country's intellectual cream, not wholly unreasonable, but then they dont ever doubt themselves and they perpetually box out smarter people.
Just like those schools box out asians so that jews can be overrepresented x8/10.
Which breeds its own dynastic fuckery.
Asians are not the only ones under-represented. In fact the biggest under-representation cohort at Harvard is that of the straight White males. http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2012/12/ron-unz-on-the-illusory-ame...
Non jewish whites are def under representted.
Basically - "diversity" for underqualified blacks and latinos is paid for by asians and whites but not jews who are very overrepresented
Meaning that while jews have been leaders in advocating 'diversity' so an admitted group roughly 'reflects the population, jews themselves have exempted themselves.
If 2.5% is 20% - it is axiomatic that the principles of 'diversity' are used primarily to benefit said group.
Period.
It also correlates with wealth, of course.
But it would be 'antisemitism ' to suggest jews, too, be something closer to their demographic %. powerful magic word, that.
Of course if we banned considering race las a factor - heres the important point - blacks and latinos would lose out, but jews would lose most of all. Theyd be over representted because they are "smart" but nowhere near current levels.
asians would eat their breakfast in the maths and sciences.
Sorry.
But they would, and one day - will.
Sorry.
this isnt faccism...this is blacks grabbing power.this is all about money. if they can finally outlaw desent they will have the purse strings.....right before the whole shit collapses anyway.
Everyone see end to be fine with these tactics when they were being used to shout down Anti-Israel speakers on campus.
But now the Zionist tactic is being used against you.
Starting to understand how Palestinians feel? Being in siege in your own land?
"...how can you even now refuse to see what you have done?" V. V. Putin
look you paki goat fucker...if you want to insult people (americans or at least english speaking) at least learn english.....i refuse to be insulted with gibberish by a paki pedo...LOL
Serious question:
Is it fascist to call for a publicly-funded gov't employee to resign or be fired IF AND ONLY IF they did something fascist to someone else in line with their political opinion/beliefs?
For instance, it could be said that Lois Lerner was expressing her political beliefs in targeting conservative Tea Party groups while working as a public official for the IRS. Is it fascism to call for her ouster?
Kim Davis claims she was expressing her religious beliefs (in a political setting) when she refused to perform gay marriages while working as a public official for her local county gov't. Is it fascism to call for her ouster?
The same thing can be said of MANY of these proto-fascist professors on publicly-funded campuses--where exactly is the moral and ethical line drawn?
In other words, as a taxpayer, do I have to continue to fund someone else's fascist behavior in order to not be fascist myself? I'm talking only about taxes--money taken by force from me. For instance, it is entirely voluntary if I want to spend money or not at Chick-fil-a after their supposedly anti-gay stance. That is not what I am talking about.
This article doesn't cover this grey area. I am genuinely curious what the author's thoughts are on this...
For those who do not recall Lois Lerner here you go. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lois_Lerner
DchangO is correct to question here. My answer would be that these people are crooks bent on stealing our wealth.
Another good question is why U.S. and British investigators took over from Russian intelligence on the plane crash in the Sinai? How did that happen? I am not hearing a word out of Russia on that. That is strange to me. The Russians are not saying anything. My father-in-law is FSB. Not a word. Something strange is afoot.
Is sinai still in egypt, and is sisi still in charge, and is he a puppet of russia or if the anglozionists?
"Lois Lerner was expressing her political beliefs"
Well if you call what she did 'expressing' her beliefs then you could say the same about assassinating your political opponents. 'Expressing' in the context of this article, and I imagine as understood by most people, refers to stating, writing or otherwise disseminating your opinions or beliefs.
This is the result of Marxist ideology. The commie crap these profs have been pushing all these years has come back to bite them in the ass.
There is a gray area, IMO, think Union of Socialist Soviet Republics, National Socialist Germany.
Just call both systems Zionism and be done with it, haha.
Lerner broke the law and as a government executive was targeting citizens using government funds and personnel, may not be fascism but certainly is de-facto communism.
Fuck her.
Lois Lerner should be hung from a pike by her pussy, but what she did IS NOT COMMUNIST. Using the power of government to harass people with different views IS NOT COMMUNISM. Yes, Communists do it, but so do democracies. For example, how did the US treat real, actual communists back in the late 40's? If you don't think the Rosenbergs and friends were harassed by the US gov't, you obviously have never heard of Joe McCarthy.
HARASSMENT by gov't for opposing political views in the United States is a crime, as it's effective denial of First Amendment rights. But it's not Communism.
The thing is, so many freakin' Americans start shrieking "Communist!!" at any thing they dislike, most rational people turn their ears off. Learn to use the right terms, and we might start to listen.
It has never been a right v left thing. It has always been liberty v tyranny. The modern Left has FAR more in common with fascism than anything remotely resembling marxism, but even to realize that misses the point. Both are incorrect, as they infringe on rights and liberties of the individual.
Agreed. G Edward Griffin takes this view:
"How Socialism, Communism, Fascism are All the Same"
There isn't a lot of difference between them.
The point is that when it comes down to it, both groups are totalitarian by nature and both groups ultimately use jackboots to enforce their will.
+10!
In about one year, we are going to recognize and some will celebrate the 500th anniversary of a most important event in human history, and that person attributed to that event ..
Everyone here know of who we speak of? Anybody here wish to prove him wrong?
http://youtu.be/NDqL6AJP9v8
Bigger question is what this shrieking hood rat is doing in Yale. Just another example of AA destroying the country's fundamental institutions. You can be certain that she got in at the expense of some working class White male.
Experienced very much the same thingy during the recent Irish guy marriage referendum, it was extremely shocking to engage with people who could not debate.
Whatever else you could say about Ireland in the past at least we had the ability to talk and engage in political argument, not now
A
Yeah- that's what I figured. You are obviously monitoring this message board for some reason...... Care to comment?
Thank You! A Fascist State is one where the Government and Private Industry are joined - the author fails to mention that. BTW, if you didn't already know it, Yale teaches students how to make a very good living being a good little Fascist in this very country.
Ex. While we were focused on the Iran agreement in July, a hacking trial by a grand jury was finding guilty 4 Lead operatives (3 Israeli nationals) and one Jewish guy from NY. Why didn't the MSM tell us that there was an organized crime ring of hackers boring into our banking and brokerage accounts?
Who is the mis-informed person that just put a negative (v) on my post- let us hear from you, I think your opinion deserves to be heard.
I just put a second down vote for no good reason.
Because where it isnt a jewish guy directly calling the shots it is someone afraid of jewish groups screaming at his bosses about how antisemitic it is to cover such stories IFF the perps were jews.
Which should be obvious by now.
By the way re 'canards' - go ahead and find as many msm news sources as you can where there are not a number of jewish people in the very top positions of management or ownership. Since the 'canard' is re 2.5% of the gen pop - this should be an easy task.
Well?
"A Fascist State is one where the Government and Private Industry are joined [...]"
This is true according to Mussolini. Whereas in the case of (say) Marxism, it believes that the means of production should be owned by the State, not by private corporations. But since in both cases The State exercises control over the corporations (either thru ownership, by law, regulation, State reps on the boards or corrupt relations), it doesn't make a lot of difference who owns it. The big German industries in the 1930s were a classic example of how deeply integrated they were into Hitler's Nazi party to the point where he had henchmen on their Boards directing investment in R&D and production etc.
This is one reason why a number of learned people have long argued that Nazis were actually Marxists.
If there is a Left-Right spectrum, fascism clearly sits on the authoritarian extreme Left, but the moderate/progressive Left have always argued otherwise to distance itself from the horrors it commits (eg Hitler).
In the UK, HRH Tony Blair was a classic example of a socialist who drifted into fascism once he got control of the levers of power. A fascist psychopath from his collar studs to boot laces.
In this case it is the government supporting these leftist universities for years, politically and financially - fascism
First they came for the Halloweeners...
And I spoke up annonymously by posting in blog. Then they came for me. And annonymous people felt sorry and bantered about me in a blog.
Yale should pass out dildos as student pacifiers to shut up idiots like that...
well if the ZH forum practised what this guy preaches... We would have less hate rants here and more reasoned dialogues.
Who can be against free speech?
Having said that the term Proto-fascism is a top down process; aka TPTB talking down to the unwashed.
So students do not in general have the POWER to impose on FACULTy members their "fascist Fatwas" of "STFU" type rants.
In reality it IS the OTHER way round; proto-fascism is when the Oligarchs say : move on nothing here to see! Unfortunately, in a world of regulatory capture by the Oligarchs we see that all the time.
ZH is now becoming more and more a site where we preach One thing and point to the INNOCENT as the designated Bogeymen! Students are those designated.
In a world where the Generational gap is making the young millenials the victims of this financial scam worldwide ORGANISED by the Old and corrupt who BOW to their own fiancialized proto-fascism day and night.
Hey Bill Barlow the PROTO FASCISM is on the OTHER FOOT !
So, I take it you're all good with the doddering old Marxist professors, administrators and "academics" in general reaping the whirlwind they have created in the minds of these young impressionable youths?
Well, oddly enough, so am I ;-)
I'm sorry but they are the mob, and the mob has power. Sure there are other issues at play, but this mob is being used by others to teach people like the former U of Missouri President a lesson. They are the useful idiots who work as the footsoldiers and think they are fighting the system. They are not bright followers who are used. And they need to be blamed and ridiculed too. And yes they are being scammed. But they are adults making bad decisions. And need to be called on it.
Fascism which is the Doctrine of an ideological cum militarist elite "loves to pour oil on the fire of populist rage". Think Hitler and Mussolini in the 1920s... So populism and mob violence is their tool for stirring up the masses. This creates a reaction, in those times it was the Commie mobs who considered fascism as the enemy.
Today the dialectical debate in society is between the people and the financial oligarchy linked to crony politicians; TPTB cabal; who will use the same tactics and use racial and economic divides to whip up populist ire, on both sides of the populist divide IN ORDER TO GET THEIR OWN ELECTED. That is always STEP 1 in the Republican process of a "managed democracy"; even if it be functioning in inverted totalitarian mode.
The question here is : in a working democracy we should know how to avoid that the extremes of "Hoi Oligoi" and "hoi polloi", to use Pericles's phraseology, get the upper hand in the nation state's political debate at the expense of the middle class, which is the foundation of democracy. Once the split hardens into "rich" and poor" on social lines; "old" and "young" on intergeneration lines; employed and unemployed; hard left and hard right; the cement of society and democratic republic decays very fast.
Ask yourself : Is the GOp and Donald Trump for the middle ground?
Those you call "mob" in the IVY LEAGUE faculties are the best and brightest of our young!
Now I don't know how those faculties, who produce the stalwarts that work for all the think tanks and hi-flying corporates; Mckinsey, GS, Hfs, Boston Consulting, Silicon Valley Hi-tech, can be qualified as the breeding ground of Marxist thinking. Most of these guys end up working for the State or Pentagon or for the scions of Oligarchy capitalism.
Haha, unless you think that Ben B and J Yell are COMMIES, like Buffet, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg.
These students have no power other then what their careers will generate later on.
Their only power today is to scream their hormonal impulses and their desire to succeed up the Beanstalk of real Oligarchy Power! (And their fears of being sidelined in that inevitable rat race by the current doldrums of economic stagflation.)
WWIII should weed out these nitwits... or teach tem how to grow up.
Go back and look at the Frankfurt School and Cultural Marxism.
This I guess is a form of fascism, since both are totalitarian systems, but the current campus stuff is based on Political Correctness/Cultural Marxist philosophy.
Hitler's rise to power scattered the academic Marxists in Frankfurt to the UK and USA; here they went to work at Harvard, Columbia, etc.
***
The history of the School is quite interesting. By the late 1920s, the Itellectual Communists figured out the Proletariat was not going to rise up, since too many working people had some form of diversions, made a bit of money, could find an education, etc etc.
They decided to continue the "revolution" they must attack the foundation of western society: its morals, free speech, traditions, and codes of honor, thus what we see today.
Universities? More like Stalin’s re-education camps.

About 30% of Obama voters want to the government to prosecute people who disagree public all about climate change. The younger folks are way more willing as well.
only 20% of Americans think they have true freedom of speech today. Seventy-three percent (73%) think instead that Americans have to be careful not to say something politically incorrect to avoid getting in trouble
http://m.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/env...
Spoilt little rich kids that are used to having their own way.
Whiney little bastards who believe they have been wronged because everything in the world is not free.
They believe that anyone with white skin should be killed and are the biggest group of racist, fascists on the planet.
Fuck this whiney cunt and all who agree with their 'free speech' mantra which is; 'I get to say, do and take whatever I want and you get to shut the fuck up.'
Cunts all.
Mizzou??? Honestly, who cares and the Ivy League is merely seeing an early Spring. Nothing to see here.
Face the facts. We are living in a National Socialist State. For those of you who don't understand (most of the college students today), that is NAZI for short.
The only difference is this form of Nazism is using hatred of Whites as its race card. The hilarious part of this is many of the ignorant Whites are joining the cause and hating themselves. This same process is occurring in Europe as well with massive Muslim influxes.
This will eventually lead to a knock down drag out race war the likes of which few have ever seen.
Remember these types of regimes when they take hold result in millions of deaths - just look at Spain, Italy, Japan, and Germany in the last century.
And for those of you who look to Communism, the results are the same. In fact, the death toll in Communism comes a lot faster than in Facism. I mean Hitler was a mere picker with a couple of deaths compared to Stalins tens of millions by 1935. Same with Mao.
Give it another financial disaster and more race violence and in a few more years the major violence will be unstoppable.
This is what comes from progressive society and socialism.
+10 more. Good post :-)
Left eating their own again! Like we should give a fuck. The left created these conditions on college campuses and then are surprised when it bites them back?
No sympathy for these College Presidents, Deans, professors etc....
FUCK THEM!
"No sympathy for these College Presidents, Deans, professors etc...."
There won't be when they come for you, either, as there won't be anyone left to care.
UMass Boston students will be getting a lesson on how "free" speech works when you have a contrarian thought.

Another way to know that you're a fascist: If you're in favor of an 87 year old granny and a 60-something hippy being convicted and jailed for "thought crime", you're a fascist.

All I got from that video is that the black chick should have been restrained and maybe tazered, but, because she's black, and definitely NOT of privilege, she has a right to shout and threaten and protest and swear and throw down like a common street thug.
Believe it or not, there were people like her when I went to college in the early 70s, so, really, nothing on college campuses has really changed, except, I guess, that getting chicks drunk and high and fucking their brains out is now considered rape. (Seriously, I - and most of my friends - would have been locked up and they'd have thrown away the key.)
In general, most of the shit that happens on college campuses should be ignored, as it's just silluy shit done by kids. Now, if they start taking over admin buildings, burning stuff, and the police and national guard gets called in, and they're actually are making a point, well then maybe we can pay them some heed.
Until then, I'll just laugh it off and wait for the next banker scam. Really, bankers are better villians, any day.
Yale always was spooky.
I bought in to all that crap many years ago... Then I got a job.
Barlow is spot on.
Put some uniforms on these college kids, have a march or two and bammo! You have '30s European fascism redux.
Intolerance. You just gotta love it.....or else.
Looks like the 'crowd' around the professor is mostly black, Muzzie, or Asian. Most of those students probably getting 'free rides' in the name of 'diversity'. How's that push for 'diversity' working out for those college administrators now?
One UP for YOU but you left off the most damning part. That PUSH you elude to comes from the highest places, ie, the US Troika (US Govt + US TBTF WS Banksters + US MIC). You can expect to see it at all US Public Schools of lower and higher learning - just as you are seeing it at our borders (immigration issues) and our MultiNational Public Companies' hiring practices (H1B Visas).
Down you go 'murica. WHen you have leaders that lie and steal, your country is soon relagated to dust bin of history.
All colleges and universities should be shut down immediately! They are gathering places for racists. Students should be sent home to live with their parents and stay in their rooms. .gov should provide education via the internet so that students never need to leave the safe place that is their own bedroom at home.

"Students should be sent home to live with their parents and stay in their rooms."
Actually, a very high percentage of them will, since, after graduation, even if they do find a job, Starbucks and Hooters don't pay enough to cover their student loans and a place to live.
Today’s world fascists firmly believe that there will be no backlash for their repugnant actions. This is because the world MSM has muted all paths of defiance and placed non-conformists in their cross-hairs for elimination. So when the dam holding repressed hatred of our dreaded fascist social policing finally breaks – and it will – reprisals will be swift and deadly...
I've been calling them 'neo-fascists' for years. Glad someone else is on to the scam.
Empowerig a generation dis-empowered.
Sorry about the late post. This article is another example why Zerohedge generally occupies the high moral ground. You will not see an article like this on any MSM. I expect their will be leftist calls for this writer and the editor to step down from the Harvard Law Record.
I give the author high marks for his table of analysis.
But, as others have written, college life is insular. The outside world will only step in if buildings start getting burned.
Halloween costumes - I remember when college boys got stoned on campus for wearing ROTC Uniforms.
So, what did the Trustees do - they banned ROTC. Problem solved.
However, the students were still dissatisfied - so they started to burn buildings - of course - not to destroy property - but just as mere act of protest.
There's also a big problem in society regarding lack of timely and appropriate repurcussions for destructive and socially undesirable behavior. No one endures any consequences for being rude, brash, vulgar - you know, stuff our mom or dad used to immediately smack us in the mouth for as kids. We learned that the behavior was unacceptable first (you know, like 3 or 4), and then learned why it was unacceptable after we were capable of processing higher order thought.
Now, we simply are expected to take it becuase, well, nothing can be done about it. This has the effect of implicitly condoning and further incubating the behavior.
Will any of these children be expelled, or punished at all for that matter, for screaming f-bombs at and spitting on a professor? Behaviors that would get you immediately fired?
No. They will be lionized.
This is how nations fall.
"They are fascists.
They are fascists.
They are fascists."
And who is organizing them to be fascist, Maoist?
Also Ithica college came up. I would guess there will be an epidemic of this anti American behavior.
What Does It Matter? Fascist, Socialist, Capitalist, just as long as WE'RE President H.C.

Remember Hillary's free speach zone that she had roped off to remove those who disagreed with her?
Why don't they call them Communists?
