There is something deeply wrong with the European and American generations after the baby boomers.

In one thread, in one day, we have gone from a goofy look at a liberal college to the fact that the students are now seeking hostages.

Quote:

Students at Evergreen State College - a school notable for its far-left politics and its preference for measuring students' performance with "narrative evaluations" instead of grades - have seized control of their campus and are reportedly seeking hostages following a confrontation with a biology professor who objected to a planned demonstration that asked white students and faculty to voluntarily leave campus for a day, the Washington Times reports.

The protest began Tuesday morning when an angry mob of SJW's confronted Professor Bret Weinstein after he had sent an email to faculty and staff explaining his reasoning for opposing the demonstration.

Now, Weinstein's reportedly been told to avoid campus because his safety is at risk.

“Police told me protesters stopped cars yesterday, demanding information about occupants,” Mr. Weinstein told The Washington Times. “They believe I was being sought. It appears that the campus has been under the effective control of protesters since 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. Police are on lockdown, hamstrung by the college administration. Students, staff and faculty are not safe.

A spokesman for the Evergreen Department of Police Services confirmed the agency had been in contact with Mr. Weinstein. He said officers would be in touch with The Times, but three subsequent phone calls were not returned.”

He has to hold classes in a park now:

QED, Suits.

You accuse me of violence for suggesting that these groups are dangerous, and we ought to address the toxic ideology being propagated by them; and that the individuals addressing it have the right to self defense.

Later that day, we discover that these groups engage in ACTUAL violence, and force peaceful individuals to flee the campus which they're paying to use.

I promise to accept your apology graciously.

Those hippies look like they have the clap.

The people that go to this school make your average SJW look right wing by comparison. They are actually more hostile towards liberals and believe that mainstream leftists are more of a problem than the right

I love that this forum now has a thread for lunatic Evergreen College. My alma mater is also well known for its far-left shenanigans, but universities have clearly entered a new level of madness in the last decade. The sixties were a time of campus turmoil, including the Kent State shootings, but at least they had something legitimate to protest against (draft, Vietnam war).

My best guess is that within a few decades, if not sooner, universities will in fact be defunded and increasingly abandoned as the general public sees them more clearly for that they have become. They will be forced to undergo a change in focus, mission and size. My greatest fear is that university-brainwashed SJWs will move into leadership roles and destroy society. Unfortunately, that project is well underway, but I'm hopeful that the damage is reversible. Generations can be cyclical in their views.

This smells like the beggining of a new "Red Guards". You only need a charismatic leader and these goons will be killing people in no time.

These limp wristed, skinny, vegetarians that have never been in a one on one fight in their life ain't doing shit. They only get aggressive in groups and are incapable of maintaining composure under real duress. I do not fear them, they cannot bench press 225 once, they need to back the fuck up.

Notice how Tucker doesn't understand the far left at all:

Quote:

TUCKER: I assume if you're no kind of right winger. If you teach at Evergreen, I'm sure you're, you know, a Hillary voter.
PROFESSOR: No, no, not a Hillary voter. I'm a deeply progressive person.

Well perhaps you're being sarcastic in a way that can't be detected in an online post.

This forum is probably the strictest online community I've yet to witness, where any misdemeanors or straying-off-the-line tends to result in permanent banning, even for long term, reputable, or highly valuable members. So I'm not sure whether these two (relative) liberal members' snarky responses are due to them being liberals, or due to them trying to register protest as indirectly as possible to avoid banning. But their responses aren't unreasonable.

That would be a fair point, were it not for the explanatory post which followed up my first supposedly violent statement.

The statement in question was a quote from one of the greatest films of all time - Apocalypse Now - which I (incorrectly) assumed was as widely recognized today as it was ten years ago.

The context of the quote was that Atlanta Man was alleging that racial animus was present in the recent trend of the board to lean towards law and order; that we only seem to get upset over Black crime, while ignoring similar degeneracy amongst Whites.

I feel him; there's a huge segment of the Alt Right which is precisely as he would describe, and they sicken me. The want White countries for White people so that we can engage in White depravity.

That said, I think he's overstating the case of this message board being racist. So to make a rhetorical point, I said "Hey man - I despise these degenerate Whites as much as I despise degenerate Blacks," and then I quoted a famous movie quote, which I assumed would be taken ironically.

I then got accused of promoting violence by Suits. I suppose I'd better not write "Space Marines Assemble!" in his presence, else I'll be accused of promoting insecticide.

I followed up with a post elaborating on what should have been obvious, but they both chose to ignore it, and to again accuse me of saying something I didn't say on this thread.

Disagreeing with me is one thing; willfully quoting me out of context to prove some sort of pathetic point is another. I love engaging with people who disagree with me; but I cannot abide smug ignoramuses who are more interested in winning the debate, then getting to the point.

TL;DR: once could be a justifiable error; twice demands an apology and an admission of wrongdoing.

Still waiting for your apology, Suits. You knowing quoted me out of context; be a man and address what I actually said, not what your feels think I said.

A statement from Evergreen President George Bridges

May 27, 2017

At The Evergreen State College over the past week, we have had deep and sometimes intense exchanges among a group of students, faculty, and college administrators over equity and treatment of students. Some students on campus experience racism that interferes with their education. Others, including faculty, believe their freedom of expression is being restricted.

These are important issues. Discrimination of any form is not acceptable or tolerated on our campus. Free speech must be fostered and encouraged. We are an institution dedicated to learning. We must treat each other with respect and care. Every faculty member, student, and staff member must have the freedom to speak openly about their views.

Unless we continually seek to listen and to understand, rather than listening to react, we will not fulfill Evergreen’s mission to learn across differences.

We may disagree with each other. However, disagreement is one thing; dehumanization is another. Over the week, a few members of the Evergreen community have used traditional and social media to malign, mock, or misrepresent those with whom they disagree.

While the majority of students, faculty, and staff are fully engaged in the teaching and learning work of the college, a few are on a destructive course of action that hurts themselves and gives a distorted and false impression of our community.

This behavior is wrong and must stop. It does not represent us, and we will not allow it to define us.

Our students are as always Evergreen’s top priority. We must continue to support our faculty and staff, who are educators by intent, action, and example. Evergreen Police Services will remain an essential part of ensuring safety for all. Campus remains open and classes are in session.

Conversations about equity and free speech will continue. These are incredibly complex issues to navigate. We at Evergreen have the courage to try. With tolerance and respect, my belief is that we can succeed, and continue to learn from each other.

President should expel the snowflakes.

[Captainstabbin]

^^^Instead of expulsion, they'll get at least Bs (unearned), an award for special service to the school and have their student loans wiped.

They have told the students that everything is racist, all whites are racist no matter what they do - then they reap now the reward of that wonderful ideology.

Would that be related to the fact your avatar is an Iron Cross ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Cross...oss_emblem ), and your username is a gun?

Also Suits, I think there's a cream for that

As deranged as the 'protesters' are, it is so amusing to see the look of sad befuddlement on the teachers' faces: they thought they were the good guys, they really did.

Honestly, what the hell's the matter with you? I did not say that thing you're saying I said. Do you regularly hallucinate, and imagine people are saying things that they aren't? Or is it only with specific people, when they trigger you for some obscure reason that only you know, and you'll never explain, and following that point you spin the most uncharitable yarns imaginable about them, in an attempt to get them fired from their job, or banned from a board?

Seriously dude, do you want me to send you a Hurt Feelings Report so that you can submit it to Roosh?

Christ, you Gammas disgust me. You're worse than gossipy women; they're cunts, but they don't go picking fights and then running away.

[Brother Abdul Majeed]

This is just like Orwell's Animal Farm.

The radical hippies of the 60's and 70's took over our education systems and now run the farm. They have run it to the ground and now can't control the animals that are coming up after them.

What a shame. Western civilization will rue the day when we cast aside teachers and professors with gravitas like C.S. Lewis and exchanged them for people like Bell Hooks and Maya Angelou.

bell hooks is to be written in lowercase. According to Wikipedia, 'her unconventional lowercasing of her name signifies what is most important is her works: the substance of books, not who I am'. Please make a note of it.

I think you mean Dr. Maya Angelou. Dr. Angelou went by the honorific 'doctor' although she earned no academic or medical degrees.
