Authoritarian Leftist "Activists" Demand The End Of Free Speech, Extensive Re-Education
Submitted by Alex Thomas bia Intellihub.com,
Hard left authoritarians at Amherst College have issued a series of demands, under the threat of civil disobedience, that include the complete end of free speech on campus as well as extensive re-education for offenders.
The demands, issued in support of the so-called uprising at the University of Missouri, read like a literal fascist manifesto and are conclusive proof that the mainstream media supported protests at multiple colleges over the last few weeks are not about racial equality but rather are about totally and completely shutting down the speech of anyone who disagrees with the opinions of the protesters.
The fact that the group is attempting to get the President of a major university to sign off on re-education classes and punishment for anyone who speaks about free speech or says all lives matter is a startling reminder of the extreme authoritarianism that runs through the veins of the college hard left.
Here are the demands. Take note of the outright fascism.
We, Students of Amherst College, refuse to accept the negative social climate created towards our peers of color and other marginalized groups. We have begun this movement, Amherst Uprising, in an effort to change the status quo for a more just and inclusive environment within our campus. We demand that Amherst become a leader in the fight to promote a better social climate towards individuals who have been systematically oppressed. Student leaders acknowledge and support the demands previously stated and currently being presented. Furthermore, we demand the College acknowledge its ethical and moral responsibilities as an institution and community of our world. Amherst College should not be complicit in oppressive organizations and systems, no less.
We as a compassionate student body have gathered to address the legacy of oppression on campus. If these goals are not initiated within the next 24 to 48 hours, and completed by November 18th, we will organize and respond in a radical manner, through civil disobedience. If there is a continued failure to meet our demands, it will result in an escalation of our response.
1. President Martin must issue a statement of apology to students, alumni and former students, faculty, administration and staff who have been victims of several injustices including but not limited to our institutional legacy of white supremacy, colonialism, anti-black racism, anti-Latinx racism, anti-Native American racism, anti-Native/ indigenous racism, anti-Asian racism, anti-Middle Eastern racism, heterosexism, cis-sexism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, ableism, mental health stigma, and classism. Also include that marginalized communities and their allies should feel safe at Amherst College.
2. We demand Cullen Murphy ‘74, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, to issue a statement of apology to students, alumni and former students, faculty, administration, and staff who have been victims of several injustices including but not limited to our institutional legacy of white supremacy, colonialism, anti-black racism, anti-Latinx racism, anti-Native American racism, anti-Native/ indigenous racism, anti-Asian racism, anti-Middle Eastern racism, heterosexism, cis-sexism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, ableism, mental health stigma, and classism
3. Amherst College Police Department must issue a statement of protection and defense from any form of violence, threats, or retaliation of any kind resulting from this movement.
4. President Martin must issue a statement of apology to faculty, staff and administrators of color as well as their allies, neither of whom were provided a safe space for them to thrive while at Amherst College.
5. President Martin must issue a statement to the Amherst College community at large that states we do not tolerate the actions of student(s) who posted the “All Lives Matter” posters, and the “Free Speech” posters that stated that “in memoriam of the true victim of the Missouri Protests: Free Speech.” Also let the student body know that it was racially insensitive to the students of color on our college campus and beyond who are victim to racial harassment and death threats; alert them that Student Affairs may require them to go through the Disciplinary Process if a formal complaint is filed, and that they will be required to attend extensive training for racial and cultural competency.
6. President Martin must issue a statement of support for the revision of the Honor Code to reflect a zero-tolerance policy for racial insensitivity and hate speech.
7. President Martin must release a statement by Friday, November 13th, 2015 by 5:00pm that condemns the inherent racist nature of the unofficial mascot, the Lord Jeff, and circulate it to the student body, faculty, alumni, and Board of Trustees. This will be followed up by the encouraged removal of all imagery including but not limited to apparel, memorabilia, facilities, etc. for Amherst College and all of its affiliates via a phasing out process within the next year.
8. Dean Epstein must ask faculty to excuse all students from all 5 College classes, work shifts, and assignments from November 12th, 2015 to November 13th, 2015 given their organization of and attendance at the Sit-In.
9. Do not threaten the jobs of the faculty, staff, or administrators that support our list of demands. Such threats will result in an escalation of our response.
10. The Office of Alumni and Parent Programs must send former students an email of current events on campus including a statement that Amherst College does not condone any racist or culturally insensitive reactions to this information.
11. Dean Epstein must encourage faculty to provide a space for students to discuss this week’s events during class time.
Please acknowledge that all of these statements of apology are not the end all – that they are only a part of short-term healing and by no means achieve all of the goals we will set forth. We are in the process of finalizing long-term goals which we hope to collaborate on regularly with all members of the community.
While most of the demands are ludicrous in their own right, demand number five literally calls for punishing students who want all lives to matter and who displayed this horrific flyer on campus.
There you have it. The demands of the “Amherst Uprising” include literally disciplining and then reeducating students for speaking out in support of free speech.
There is simply no middle ground here. You are either an outright fascist who wants to institute a kind of leftist thought police on college campuses or you are fighting against this.
Leftist news outlets such as Salon have spent the last week publishing article after article about how the student protests are not about censorship, claims that we now know to be transparent lies. Any organization or person that gets behind these demands must be exposed. This is not the time to play nice.

Morons. Unemployed forever.
Another reason the bricks and mortar education system will crash next recession/depression.
Education is a huge infested zit waiting to be popped.
1 this isn't education
2 it is aleady crashing or has crashed
Let's see the civil disobedience. Walk the walk.
Fucking A! I'm waiting for them to show up at UNM and do some disruptive shit. If they do one of their stupid little protests, whatever, but if they start pulling bullshit like stopping that student reporter at mizzou, They're going to find out what somebody not giving a fuck about their feelings is really like.
The solution is pretty simple really... Expell every one of these miscreants from school, ban them from campus and arrest them if they return... Education is a privilege, not right... You don't like the rules, GTFO...
they need to reeducate all of you cynical baastids here and make soldiers outta ya for the "cause"
How about we issue a non-threatening and safe message to everyone Amherst, regardless of all the above:
GO FUCK YOURSELF
Trump/Coulter 2016
Placate them for now. Promise the minorities an offensive free zone at every college campus.
Build a fence around them, kick out the offensive whites and lock the gate.
When the shit hits the fan in a couple months, we'll eat the fat ones first!
How do those socialists plan to reeducate us? In some dungeons?

From your posts, I can only assume you have too much time, and cum, on your hands.
cant wait til these.kids get jobs and start presenting such manifestos to their work sites around the globe . What a wonderful world. "Imagine".
The 'cover' sung by Pol Pot and the Headshots wasn't so good.
Decades of free stuff since LBJ has brainwashed these thugs into beleiving they deserve everything including their own way 100% of the time. THis O'Bama crowd is pretty aggressive. i saw them in action last election and use of force or violence is in their tool box.
THis O'Bama crowd is pretty aggressive
Screw'em
Ronda Rousey was pretty cocky too.......right before she got knocked out.
Glad I did not attend Zoo Mass.
-- SINCE 1978
(something bad in the water out there in Amherst and this is not typical Masshole behavior)
Also in the area if you and your college bound young one are visiting.

I'm quite sure Dean Epstein is more than will to comply to all demands.
wack-job mental retards.
Using their freedom of speech to demand no freedom of speech?
fuck 'em. Give them what they want and cut off all their free speech as well as their access to the internet, cell phones, twitter accounts, etc. until they wake the fuck up.
Read that big employeers are now looking to state college students, Google not that interested in college degrees anymore. They say they learned their lesson.
Strictly enforced moral conformity, the paradigm which brought you the Salem Witch Trials.
Can we get some wailing banshee to deliver this orally? Would love to use that as a must wake up alarm. The Yale screaming Mimi is wearing thin.
On the bright side, this should make HR's job at any respectable company easier.
"Amherst, hmm, where do I remember that name? Oh, right. Snowflakes. Next."
I cannot wait until these people actually have to earn their sustenance. Should be a peachy show.
pods
hopefully this leads to degrees from this school becoming a liability rather than an asset. Companies see you went here, or yale, or mizzou, etc, and say no thanks, not what we're looking for. I sure as hell would. Liberals might not think so, but lets be honest, how many liberals are there running small to medium sized businesses? even if you happened to be a liberal, I suspect it would take long to change your persepctive once you see the kind of bullshit barriers to productivity your brethren have placed between you and success.
This is what I was thinking. If anyone at this plase is smart and has some cis-balls they will calmly question all these demands before Amherst=unemployable.
Someone needs to gently inform these snowflakes that their "rights" do not involve compelled performance by others.
Big Non-profit will love these tantrum throwing crybabies though.

"When the shit hits the fan in a couple months, we'll eat the fat ones first!"
Bad idea - bad for your liver.
''The demands, issued in support of the so-called uprising at the University of Missouri, read like a literal fascist manifesto and are ' conclusive proof that the mainstream media supported protests at multiple colleges over the last few weeks' are not about racial equality but rather are about totally and completely shutting down the speech of anyone who disagrees with the opinions of the protesters."
You are all missing the point, this is "Public Relations" takingthe next step on it's evolution read the quote above again, this is an experiment by the social engineers, engineers who have control of the 'Mainstream' media as one of their tools, what would be the goal of such an exercise? Perhaps, again, paraphrasing the above, 'totally and completely shutting down the speach of anyone who disagrees with the opinions of the, 'Media owners' or the interests they represent?
I'll add something more to the above; You can't believe it, even though it is right in your face, the media would mock and destroy this if they didn't want to flex their muscles and see how much power they really have! They really have a lot of power over the masses!
It's even worse than privilege vs. right.
Higher education is a PRODUCT/SERVICE.
Think about it--if I send my kid to a college, and these SJWs force my kid to spend time and tuition taking one of their useless courses, they have just forced us to buy a product/service we don't want for several thousand dollars. (Even if these courses were made to look like they are free of charge, the cost gets passed on to someone, possibly the taxpayer, but most likely the students. Leftist/progressive professors don't work for free--they are quite greedy as it turns out.)
Even worse, my kid is likely to be getting into debt to pay this wasted tuition--we're gonna sue somebody for the damages if this happens to us.
On top of that, even if my kid doesn't get forced into re-education courses, the fact that the university even has one weakens and devalues the diploma from that university, since employers recognize that instead of spending several hundred hours working on a valuable skill like engineering, the students are spending that time in a useless course like "appreciation of cultural diversity."
Of course, I'm going to do everything in my power to avoid sending any of our family's kids to any university or college with a "diversity" program, where the number or salaries of adminstrators is greater than that of instructors, or where they no longer focus on the basic courses that lead to getting a good job. That includes advising our family young ones to consider going to universities outside the USA, where getting a good job is still the primary goal of a college education.
This series of incidents only goes to prove that unless you work for something, it has no value... I had to work my way through college, taking night classes, working during the day, doing whatever I had to do in order to finish... Nobody gave me the time of day, nor did I ask for any help, no government loan, nothing... If nothing else it teaches you humility, something these poor delicate snowflakes know nothing about...
Signed by those that are getting a 50k per year free ride there Because they are minorities or disadvantaged
Bite the hand that feeds you much?
Of course what few realize is that these kids go from one indoctrination camp (college) to the next (corporate).
All the major corporations have required racial/sensitivity training courses that all workers must attend. And these courses must be taken again every year to remain employed.
If this crap takes off at the university level you can bet your bottom dollar this crap will also be required at all major corporations, or any place that has an oppressed minority or LBGT working for it.
Im no fan of big corps, but they don't believe in this kind of dumb shit any more than we do. They care about the bottom line. Someone near the top has decided that making their employees waste their time doing dumb shit like that is cheaper in the long run than getting sued a few times, so they do it. Thats the only reason. Same with hiring a useless eater in the HR dept to teach all of this. CHeaper to pay some dindu to do nothing productive and babble to everyone about racial sensitivity than pay out settlements. This way they can tell the judge "no sir, we aren't racsist, you can clearly see we hired a black person to tell us all about diversity. we care, your honor. WHy else would we have hired dindu nuffin here?" if they ever get sued anyway.
Actually most of the people running the big corps care about nothing but their own bottom line. Buybacks and bonuses.
Seeing what is coming, can you blame them?
I would be trying to GTFOASAFP too.

Dumb white American males support this crap by cheering on Trayvon Thugs and rapists art U of Mizzou and all the other colleges and ball team sprots in the NBA and NFL like dumb sheep. I bet the stands were filled at U of Mizzou this week.
MUCK FIZZOU............
I have been wondering for decades why white males continue to watch football and basketball. Your eyeballs support the very worst aspects of our social system and guarantee the slavery of your children.
"A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."
I suggest that we create a fund to introduce these snowflakes to reality. I think a road trip, beginning with a weekend in Baltimore, followed by several days of recuperation and ending with a weekend in Chicago, is just what they need.
Your misspelling of Chicongo just micro-aggressed me.

Good luck finding a U that doesn't have 'diversity' as a priority. UNC Chapel Hill said "if you take away one thing from this campus visit, remember that we are all about diversity". I've been to many campus visits in the year with my oldest and the most frequently touted trait was 'diversity'. Not academics, not facilities, not student-teacher ratios, not access to profs, not real life training....diversity. Second most lauded feature was 'study abroad', i.e., vacation paid with tuition. This played out over and over at large and small pubilc and private universities in several states.
if its that bad for your oldest, think about how bad it will be once your youngest is going. my youngest is 5 months old. Diversity and racial sensitivity and the like will probably be all thats taught. engineering and maff will be racist...
My hope is that by the time Im making the rounds at colleges with my kids this shit will have crashed and burned by then. colleges will have gone back to what they are supposed to be. Even 12 years ago when I was a freshman, there was none of this shit.
Q. What's the opposite of diversity?
A. University
#SuicideForSocialJustice
We get a feeling that employers are going to enact an equal force (in teh opposite direction) towards hiring teh class of '16.
Canukistan is a "free for all" and BTC has dropped precipitously.
Please spell "THE" properly. I have a liberal French Canadian neighbor, and he always plays DUMB.
We will never spell teh correctly. Buh Bitcoin!!
Using 'teh' is probably a sign of white privilege, regardless of the author's race/creed/ethnicity/gender identity/whatever.
Or maybe they were just typing too (to? two?) fast and didn't have spellcheck running.
"teh" is a sarcastic and purposeful misspelling:
http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/teh
it isn't for me, my fucking fingers don't work like they used to, now it's typos all the time.
(edited that about fived tiems sofar)
For future reference I want to point out that I'm with OldPhart on this one. I fat-finger 'the' into 'teh' fairly regularly. I had no idea anybody did that on purpose as some sort of regional colloquialism. Had I known I could have used the "I meant to do that" excuse, I probably would have.
Indeud.
" teh" is fucking juvenal.
Canuk-tard
Decimus Iunius Iuvenalis, known in English as Juvenal, was a Roman poet active in the late 1st and early 2nd century CE, author of the Satires.
Just like Canuktards.
first background check will be against a list of signatories of any of this shite, second will be on social media......not a chance of a job,
also 2016?, 2017,18 and 19 will be blacklisted too
Seriously? Jobs will even be available for Americans? I never would have guessed.
If I were a headhunter I would be taking names and numbers and promise my clients that I will never bring this garbage to them.
Best Whineries money can buy. Now you can see why a diploma is called a 'sheepskin'.
lol. That was funny.
You probably know this (or should!), parchment is actually made from calfskin, sheepskin, or goatskin, and diplomas were once written on parchment.
Your comment is still humorous though.
I think the FEMA camps have a "re-education" program too.
Online colleges next big thing.
Nothing but books and tests, no liberal indoctrination, no protestors, no friends, just education.
They will rent hotel suites for tests with photo id, photo, fingerprints.
Starting with the professors.
Seriously. If you're in a position to hire, do not hire a professor or anyone whose major ended in "studies."
That includes "climate studies", I hope.
It's funny how these tolerant liberal arts schools are so infested with racists, bigots, and Neo-Nazis.
My favorite is when they talk about the "rape culture" of colleges. It suggests that rape is accepted, and common place everywhere. Social feelings about women and minorities aside, I do not think there is an individual in the US, capable of walking upright, that would tolerate that. Yet somehow the term "rape culture" exists.
Along with gender neutral pronouns. Makes me want to puke. And also to never have children.
There is no 'rape culture' @ Amherst. Half the year it's too damn cold to even contemplate genital exposure. To survive, you look for a hibernation mate in early September. If she's extra hairy with 2 large fat layers, you're extra happy . . . because she might be able to keep you warm. The thin attractive ones, they die after the first 2 weeks of cold dark hell, right around Halloween.
The fat ones can feed a family of 6.
Twelve..
..with the right farrowing trough.
What happens when they roll over at night ?
the wet spot becomes obvious.
My God, this bald-faced, phony zeitgeist sweeping college campuses is so pathetic that I actually feel bad for the many students involved--the poor misguided rubes who think they're moving race relations forward. How dumb and naive do you have to be to get behind this fascism?
Did they actually say they're fighting a "negative social climate"?
WTF is that? Fucking nonsense. I couldn't read the rest.
Are they promoting climate change?
The 2 subjects that aren't taught at the grade school level.
1). History of the constitution and it's importance in a free society, what the bill of rights is and the logic behind it.
2). Money, what is it, why has it morphed into its current form and what is its likely future.
Had these kids been exposed to these subjects in a meaningful way, we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
If my child were attending this university and I were paying the freight, I'd be on the phone ASAP with the news that if they are part of this idiocy, the money spigot was just shut off.
Furthermore, I'd write a letter to the dean and explain to him/her that if any of this idiocy survives the winter and is visible in the spring, there would be one less student attending his college.
These articles are written by thin skinned old people. Time to start euthanizing anyone over 45.
try it.
If he wants it.....let's lower the bar....and give it to him.
Cancer is doing a great job in that direction, you're way behind the times.
If you start with Barry and Billary and all the rest of the political establishment I might go along, even though it would affect me personally.
The new Red Army........
Pink Panthers.
>Unemployed forever.
>Next generation of government workers.
No, some of these morons will become politicians and warp into the new Maxine Waters, Hillary Clintons and Diane Fiensteins.
Now, is the time to eliminate these parasites before they breed further (most have probably got pregeny by age 12.)
And to you whiney ass-wipes, suck my white ass dick...in five years, most of you will charge $3 for the priviledge...just to have something in your gut.
...and the name of the imperialist criminal who's name the college bears, jeffrey amherst, was well known to have distributed smallpox laden blankets to the indians in his area of influence to diminish THEIR influence. pretty full cirle shit.
Sadly not.
Straight into Government.
Here's the proper response to that garbage: Go Fuck Yourself!!
DAMNHERST!
"Unemployed forever"
Problem is they still collect "paychecks"
We pay these morons to attend this school.
Civil Disobedience? That term is a bit watered down since Ghandi.
Dear Student Body; After considerable thought, and meditation on your Demands, the Faculty and Alumni have come to what WE believe is a mutual understanding of your terms. The following is a direct reply to said Eleven(11) Demands:
1. GO FUCK YOURSELF
2. EAT SHIT
3. GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS
4. YOUR .GOV FREESHIT IS GOING TO END
5. GET A FUCKING JOB
6. #YOUR LIVES DON'T MATTER
7. GO GET DRUNK/LAID
8. THE NEW MASCOT WILL BE "LORD JEFF, THE HAPLORHINI", IN YOUR HONOR
9. #RACE MATTERS
10. ANTE UP, FREE SPEECH AIN'T FREE ASSHOLES
11. THE CAMPUS IS STARTING TO LOOK LIKE KENT FUCKING STATE, IF YOU GET OUR DRIFT MORONS.
How come these nimrods and this University retain access to the Federal Student Loan program and Federal research grants?
Isn't Constitutional subversion "terrorism"?
Sorry to disillusion you, but Constitutional subversion is now mandatory.
Geez, I wonder who financed this nonsense. Koch? Soros? Dimon? Blankfein? Fink? etc. etc. etc.
i wouldn't think this would take much money. students have too much time on their hands generally (i did) so why not a sit in demanding apologies.
i'm a little surprised that it's all about minority groups in the u.s. who, internationally speaking, have it pretty good relative to those being shit on by, say, the u.s., israel and saudi arabia (and the responsibility for which runs to these institutions and students, as opposed to say the injustices of russia and china).
In few years most colledges be lucky to still be around . Reeducation will be a global depression and a global war
The term "simpletons" has just been resurrected.
Humanus Redirectus.
Never thought I would see Full Retards on a University Campus......wonder if they got a Grant or a Loan?
Apparently you forgot about UC Berkley and the Free Speech Movement from the mid-1960s.
These "Naggers" are starting to wear thin on me. Is that the best they can come up with? I mean why stop there? Demand paybacks while your at it.
That's coming next
Forty acres of land and a Troy bilt.
sounds like they don't want to go to class. this is not unfamiliar to me.
it works a little bit in places like college. not so much on the outside.
Who are these people? Their faces and names should be made public. If I was the dean I would tell them all to fuck off. Being as it is, I'm sure the sniveling cowards will meet their demands.
Time to call up that pepper spraying cop. The dean has a job for him.
I wasn't aware that colleges were democratic institutions. Leftist pgressive, yes. But not democratic. Will we ever tire of egotistical self anointed elites representing a tiny slice of the population, pushing everyone else around? Is it because we have a sick need for it? I want to DEMAND that NONE of my tax money goes to support a single one of these snots. Fuck higher learning. Support trade schools, people who actually have skills to do something, especially in a world that has fallen in on itself.
...are you aware that the guy with the tattoos and the guns is with the government?
These people are the spawn of 45 years worth of horrendous public indoctrination coming back to roost on the assholes who have benefitted from their indoctrination.
If riots break out, let them. Let the fools destroy the greater fools aka basket weaving professors/administrators and the like - who have ushered forth this situation. Fucking oxygen thieves, all of them.
Let the race baiters, false victims, and their enablers cut each others throats and let our corrupt justice system mop up the remnant.
No matter what - all of these idiots will go nowhere-except to the pokey, where the real education will start for them.
You see, the reason these entitlist morons will not be able to get jobs as fast food managers is because of the First Amendment, not the blood suckers who are destroying the real economy.
Most insightful comment on this thread!!! Vector the anger away from the real problem.
Children are those people who are not held responsible for their actions. Fucking children, always for the fucking children.
Cry Bullies.
Suddenly, they're everywhere.
that threat of forced extensive training in cultural competency does smack a bit of the red guard.

I can't wait to see all those leftist professors sent to do manual labor. I wonder if these campus radicals will issue their own version of a Little Red Book.
Think things are bad with this coddled, nanny-care generation? Another few years, and we'll have the DAYCARE generation on our hands! Kids are starting daycare at 3-6 months old, just as maternity leave ends. My friend's kid was coming home with fresh bite marks every week at 1 yr old. Millions of kids fending for themselves with dual working parents the norm. 5 years of daycare batshit craziness. Most of the brain is fully developed by the age of 5 - and formed by the experiences up to that point. Then off to kindergarten, to meet up with the newbie, scared-as-shit kids who stayed at home with at least one parent until 5. Doesn't take much imagination to think about who becomes the alpha kids, and the repercussions on society...a decade or so later.
These friends of mine, ridden with guilt that they subjected their kid to getting bitten for 8 hours a day, couldn't bring themselves to discipline this kid for anything at all. He was an absolute terror of a child - always hitting, pinching, slapping, screaming, throwing violent tantrums. The guilt prevented them from any sort of disciplinary approach. Frightening.
For some reason people get "parent" and "friend" mixed up. Being a parent means making (sometimes) really hard decisions that the child probably does not like, nor understand. When poor decisions are made by the parent(s), then both the child and the parent(s) get to suffer the consequences.
Researchers who point to a correlation between aggression among children and too much nonmaternal care have seen their work vilified. Meanwhile, some scholars have disputed the obvious: that the mother-child bond is crucial to early childhood development. The day care lobby keeps pouring more money into elections, and politicians offer more subsidies for commercial day care while parents ask for policy options that would help them stay home with their children. Day Care Deception is a brave and thoughtful book about a contentious debate whose outcome will have profound consequences for our children and our social future.

Whites panicked in the 1960s when "people of color" rioted. Whites blew tens of billions of dollars on a "War on Poverty."
What the current protestors really want is not gentler speech. They want more cash. More free shit.
Northern whites still haven't figured this out. They are still guilt ridden. They want to spend another trillion or two.
This will end when the Chinese stop lending the money. That is to say, it will soon be over.

The incident shown on TJ Sotomayor is downright inhumane.
There's some really nice kids out there. These cry-babies unfortunately represent a large part of their entitled up~bringing.
I can assure that there's wonderful Millenials, that are disgusted with the behavior of their peers.
Note that they claim not to be acting for themselves but for the oppressed. Nthing different than what you hear coming out of Obama's mouth, like many others seeking to dominate us, every fucking day. Just progressive Jayvees. Obama must be so proud.
emperor Obungus maximus is running on borrowed time.
I certainly hope you "East Pond", electorate use MOAR discretion in 2016.
This is what you get when everyone gets a trophy, everyone gets a plus, everyone gets to bat, and there are no losers.
Losers think they are winners if they are never shown that they actually suck at everything they do.
The people who came up with this crap are really messed up. My favorite was the shrink who couldn't get over not being picked when they chose teams and worked to ban this practice as he felt so bad not being picked. By not making the team this clown was motivated to hit the books and made something of himself. The good players who were usually the first picked ended up working at some filthy grunt job and spend their nights getting drunk and talking about the glory days. Not getting picked was the best thing to happen to this guy but he is too messed up to realize it.
adr
Self Esteem Bitches.
Screw self esteem. Jailbirds have the most.
Earn some self respect, little crybabies.
I am a millenial who is disgusted by this bs... My dad gave me a choice when I went to school, either bring home straight A's or quit and get a job. I was smart enough to stay in school. Then worked my fucking ass off to finish school in 4 years while working fulltime (got 3 promotion in the span of those 4 years)... By the time I graduated at 22 I was a asistant VP a major bank and vp at 23... The average age of my colleagues was 40 at that time. A lot of these morons think that just because they are born as a human that they deserve to have everything... The fact of the matter is we are still part of the animal kingdom and the name of the game is survival, those who are a ble to adapt will survive and those who don't won't. Mother Nature is a cruel mistress... And the univer doesn't give a fuck about you or me. With that said I have couple of black friends who are stand up fucking guys and bust their ass to put food on the table. I can't stand stupid or racism
The article is retarded in its use of -isms. This is not fascism, nor is it "far left". It's vanity vanity vanity with a dollop of self-righteous obliviousness.
This is just what rich kids get up to these days. It's an idle hands thing. They're all too brain-damaged and SSRI'd these days to enjoy the normal college life of sex and drugs.
Did you all just glaze over the words "Amherst College"? $60K annual tuition.
The Fed ruined everything. The madness should've ended at Naz meltdown.
Something tells me that these kids aren't inclined to vote for Constitutional Libertarians. You wouldn't see this kind of crap at Hillsdale.
What the hell is a "Constitutional Libertarian", is that sort of like the Dodo bird?
L. Bean:
Actually, it is most like Maoist "self criticism", where dissent is ruthlessly crushed.
I guess it could be explained as a sort of inverted form of Maoism, ie all action "on the self" is actually done for the "self" as opposed to for the "masses", wherein one would also resign all concept of "self". The thing is that there isn't even any top-down guidance on any of this. It's literally just a popularity contest, and what these elite akids nowadays are displyiang, imo, are the cultural vestiges of capitalism. These kids are so wealthy, so privileged, that they no longer seek out material things, only these in-vogue stunts to burnish their "resume"(online profile). Whether they're harping about racism, classism, whatever.
The words mean nothing to them. It's like a giant fashion show, or perhaps more accurately, these behaviors are the new debutante galas and bar mitzvahs of the privileged class. Money really has become gauche again, for the "good people".
Amhoist...one o them viney joints right?
I doubt it will happen but expulsion for plain bad manners is what I'd do. My black relatives seem a little tougher than what these folks are describing. I doubt they'd show up either as they HAVE TO GO TO WORK...at a job yo...
Maybe if you can afford a school like Amhurst having a job is not an issue....apparently attending class is not either.
Oh my, when they can't swipe their EAT24 it is going to be ugly. Prepare accordingly.
Um this is Amherst, not ITT Tech.
ipay with their iphone>>>> connected to their iwatch...
Triggered.
When I was in college All I cared aout was smoking weed, going to class, and getting laid. WTF is wrong with these idiots?
Or that article that stated how the dipshots at Missou were upset becuase the French terror attacks were taking the attention away from them. Newsflash: no one gave a shit about anything at Missou before during ar after last week other than those self important retards that are actually at Missou.
Mizz-ZOO...........home of the hyena, the sloth, and the the legendary O'Chimp......
The university presidents so collectively say "Go fuck yourselves. Go apply somewhere else and check the white box under race and see if you get in."
Go apply for a job and check the white box. See if you get an interview.
Try getting into medical school and check white male and see if you get anywhere.
You want to end discrimination, go create a 100% black town, refuse all welfare, and see if you can make it two days without a murder. See if you can open one business other than a barber shop selling drugs out the backdoor for longer than a month.
Very few black lives matter. You have to produce something to matter. Once they throw away the shackles of social justice and social welfare, they can start to make something of themselves. Maybe then they will matter.
Fact is, the advancement of mankind can be laid at the feet of free white people. Where is the advanced civilization in the heart of Africa?
Remember the team building exercises where you had to get your entire group over the wall with no rope? Let's see if the PC crowd can accomplish a simple task.
My nick-name is Liawatha and I approve this message.
Entitled, useless mouth breathers. That's what these people are.
It warms the heart of a curmudgeon: As I suppose we all have heard by now, black semi-pro football players at the University (sic) of Missouri have forced white officials to resign because of “White Privilege.” This Privilege is a great upsettance to them.
White Privilege is real, of course. It is a combination of high genetic intelligence, studiousness, a tendency toward intellectual exploration, the capacity to organize, sustained hard work, and conscientiousness. There is a reason why whites design Mars landers and black athletes do not.
To make this point clearly (See? It is my tendency toward intellectual exploration), let us consider the following questions:
How many of the black athletes, or black radicals at Missouri, or anywhere, have any business being at a university? How many have IQs below ninety? How many are way below? How many are studying real subjects, such as chemistry, languages, philosophy, literature, or history—as distinct from subjects for the enfeebled, Black Studies, Sociology, Education, and Breathing for Credit?
How many of the jocks can read? In many universities the black athletes are kept in special dorms and get high grades for courses they never attend and can’t spell. Is that happening in Missouri? Can we see their SATs? No one, I promise, will want to check.
Stray thought: If universities accepted only those with intelligence and interest, the noise level would drop appreciably. I am for it.

The ability to deny instant gratification in favor of longer-term success seems to be a trait whites, asians, and indians (dot not a feather) have used to build advanced civilizations and cultures. Africans just cant seem to invest for tomorrow. They liked the sparkle of the beads and the taste of the whiskey.
When Martin Luther King flew to LA during their riots in the 1960's the BLACK leaders ran him out of town. They didn't want their people free. Rudy Guliani, in his New York cleanup campaign, went into Harlem and kicked out Sharpton and his cronies that ran it as their fiefdom. Harlem isn't a joke anymore. Go to any city where there is a major black problem and you'll see strong black leadership that keeps their people down with intimidation, lies, and fear and blames every trifle on the whites. "Whitey's out to get you" is their slogan. They are corrupt as hell and steal everything that isn't nailed down, and get away with it even when caught red handed, and their people keep reelecting them because they are led to believe things would be much worse without them. When blacks in that situation get out from under and makes something of themselves they never go back, if they are smart, because they want to you suck back into hood. Thus the sense of entitlement as they were "victims" of white oppression and racisim. My son worked in a city like that and he fired many a worthless entitiled black person. He was called every name in the book including racist. Yet to fire these people he needed the OK from his boss and the head of HR all of whom were black.
Over 50% of the black people in the US are middle class or above. So let's not paint all of them as useless and entitiled POS.
White privilege is real
You could have added impulse control, particularly angry violent ones.
Just lends credence to the old-fashioned notion that when you give niggers an inch, they take a mile.
Indeed, maybe Try contributing instead of demanding. I mean, beyond blues, basketball, and arson. Remember, we the white privileged invented both cities and matches. And virtually everything else that allows you to complain in comfort.”
I think you have to give inventing of cities to the ancient people of the middle East.
While they were building cities we were still scratching our asses in the forests of Europe.
Yoiu got me. But, in a letter to Cornel West, Professor and SJW extraordinaire:
We have White Supremacy, Professor, because for 2500 years we, whites, have produced the best minds on the planet, the greatest flourishing of the arts and sciences ever seen, the most complex and organized societies. We have White Supremacy, whatever exactly it may be, because we have been the earth’s most successful race. No other has come close. Deal with it.
We put probes on Mars and invented the thousands of technologies needed to do it. We developed the symphony orchestra, the highest form of musical expression. We invented the airplane, the computer, the internet, and tennis shoes. Putting it compactly, we invented the modern world. A degree of privilege, however you may conceive it, goes with the territory.
Blacks may not have the background to grasp the extent of our achievements. Still, permit me a brief and very incomplete list of things white people have done or invented:
Euclidean geometry. Parabolic geometry. Hyperbolic geometry. Projective geometry. Differential geometry. Calculus: Limits, continuity, differentiation, integration. Physical chemistry. Organic chemistry. Biochemistry. Classical mechanics. The indeterminacy principle. The wave equation. The Parthenon. The Anabasis. Air conditioning. Number theory. Romanesque architecture. Gothic architecture. Information theory. Entropy. Enthalpy. Every symphony ever written. Pierre Auguste Renoir. The twelve-tone scale. The mathematics behind it, twelfth root of two and all that. S-p hybrid bonding orbitals. The Bohr-Sommerfeld atom. The purine-pyrimidine structure of the DNA ladder. Single-sideband radio. All other radio. Dentistry. The internal-combustion engine. Turbojets. Turbofans. Doppler beam-sharpening. Penicillin. Airplanes. Surgery. The mammogram. The Pill. The condom. Polio vaccine. The integrated circuit. The computer. Football. Computational fluid dynamics. Tensors. The Constitution. Euripides, Sophocles, Aristophanes, Aeschylus, Homer, Hesiod. Glass. Rubber. Nylon. Roads. Buildings. Elvis. Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. (OK, that’s nerve gas, and maybe we didn’t really need it.) Silicone. The automobile. Really weird stuff, like clathrates, Buckyballs, and rotaxanes. The Bible. Bug spray. Diffie-Hellman, public-key cryptography, and RSA. Et cetera.
As a race, Cornel, we are happy for you, for anyone, to enjoy the benefits of our civilization, but that is exactly what it is—our civilization. It has become a global civilization because others among the competent—again, Chinese, Japanese, Indians, Koreans—have found it to be in technical matters superior. It came from us. They, I note, do not complain of White Supremacy or White Privilege. They are too busy making computers and money.
erratum...
The integrated circuit was invented by Jack Kilby, then at Texas Instruments, but his work was based on the demands of D'shawneekwa Johnson, a 26-year-old mother of 8 then at McDonalds, that circuit privilege be ended once and for all.
begone NPN privilege
