Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

... I get the feeling most of us live very far away from places where Muslims are a majority, and religious ghettoes aren't really a problem in the U.S. as they used to be.

Ironically a better challenge would be to walk through a Christian city while wearing a shirt that says you're a homosexual and see what happens. Muslims and Christians, despite what you may think, are not so different.

Then again, that wouldn't work either because homosexuality isn't so easily detectable that you can immediately get stabbed for it walking down the street minding your own business. You'd have to wear a show-offy shirt, and frankly, I'm not one to wear shirts advertising just how much I love titties or vaginas. It rather screams "douchebag" to do that and you're liable to get derided or even physically harassed for it anyway.

So, dumb post all around.

You say cultural marxism is bullshit. I wish it was. But unfortunately, reality shows that it's not. The same can't be said about most liberal theories.

Sounds like a church or a religion.

I'm an atheist and believe in neither.

Ah, but seriously, what's so bad about "cultural marxism" if the culture you're getting rid of are things like racism, sexism, a disrespect for education and the glorification of ignorance, and discrimination against foreigners and other people deemed as "dangerous" for no good reason?

If there's anybody who's the real "cultural marxists" it's traditionalists, who actually have destroyed past cultures in order to institute their own and are protective of them simply because they've existed for so long and because it's theirs as opposed to someone else's traditions.

... Again, no different from traditional right-wing institutions.

Churches don't often allow people they consider heretics or apostates to preach freely.

The difference between a church and a university, however, is EVIDENCE.

If you have proof for something, you can argue it in a university, and if enough people think it's good, you can make a lot of money out of it, even if there's people that disagree with you. You can't disagree with things that are firmly established with flawless methodology.

Sure, it may work that way in a church, but it's extremely rare, people converting because someone managed to prove something about their religion was true as opposed to the usual battle of rhetoric and theology and differences in opinion.

Scientists and scholars don't work on opinion... Except for philosophers, who sometimes specialize in theology. Like Christopher Hitchens!

Well I really wasn't talking about the Natural Sciences, being pretty non-religious myself I don't particularly have reason to doubt the contemporary scientific consensus; nor do I take very much offence to the disrespect given to 'crank' theories like Gene Ray's time cube. No I'm talking about the institution of ideas and the silencing of opinions, not often by university staff themselves but by student activists in their rather Jacobin haste to reform the evils in our society. I'm talking about matters such as the recent Yale protests in Massachusetts where students told a university master that his job was to make students feel comfortable, rather than to provide an academic environment. I'm talking about a recent time when a visiting conservative professor to one university or another was drowned out by the Internationale so the lecture could not be conducted. Or when Buckley scholars where spat upon. Now the Right has it's fair share of violence, much publicized but the left needs to be held accountable for it's own actions, if they want to build an egalitarian in outcome (which I disagree with) and non-violent (which I support) society. They need to start living into their commitment to non-violence.

Sure, that sounds harsh.

I've never run across such an instance occurring, though, and I've never heard of that. Then again, I live in the bumfuck end of Florida where nothing much interesting happens except crime and car accidents.

And the masters, whether they like it or not, really do have to cater to students... It's always been that way, really. It's just that students used to not be told, nor did they realize it until recently. And really, good students respect intelligence and wisdom, don't matter where it's coming from and what it is. My guess is, the master is as much at fault as the students. Same with the professor. Same with the scholars.

Students don't appreciate bias, don't matter whether it's from the left or right, and especially if the person lecturing them doesn't admit where their errors lie and if they didn't appreciate the students' criticisms.

Though, to be fair, sometimes students get stupid with their demands.

I remember one time some uppity lady didn't seem to like our professor's lecture (to be fair, it was about his experiences as a sensual masseuse, but it was related to the class... It was about sexuality, for fuck's sake). She and the professor got in a shouting match when she wasn't satisfied with the professor's obvious explanation (it's a class where we studied fucking human sexuality). I can see where she was coming from, but she was in the wrong, ultimately. Most likely, she just didn't like hearing about the very informative sexual experiences of a kindly, massively intelligent, if sometimes curmudgeonly, old man.

Scholarship in general revolves around doubt. Nothing is ever concrete unless it proves itself to be concrete. The students that drowned out the lecturer with The Internationale, for example... If there were so many students there that it would have been pointless to remove them because then there wouldn't be anybody at the assembly... Yeah, that's his fault. He was obviously somewhere where his opinions were obviously not agreed with, and/or his opinions aren't popular in general. You expect that in universities. The only respect is for the truth, and if people feel you're lying to them, they will be negative about it. It's quite possible they started singing The Internationale sarcastically. Was the guy an anti-Communist or an anti-leftist?

You got links for these incidents?

... Not that I don't trust you. I don't trust anyone, really. I like to hear both sides of the story before coming to conclusions.

Also... The right-wing is nowhere near as renowned as the left for doubting anything or being curious about anything. So, sorta makes sense the universities got "taken over" by them.

Kinda like how Christians don't wear mixed garments, don't murder and give most of their wealth to charity because the Bible tells them so?

Are you seriously claiming that anti-semitism isn't vastly more prevalent in the Islamic countries than in Western Europe?

Well I really wasn't talking about the Natural Sciences, being pretty non-religious myself I don't particularly have reason to doubt the contemporary scientific consensus; nor do I take very much offence to the disrespect given to 'crank' theories like Gene Ray's time cube. No I'm talking about the institution of ideas and the silencing of opinions, not often by university staff themselves but by student activists in their rather Jacobin haste to reform the evils in our society. I'm talking about matters such as the recent Yale protests in Massachusetts where students told a university master that his job was to make students feel comfortable, rather than to provide an academic environment. I'm talking about a recent time when a visiting conservative professor to one university or another was drowned out by the Internationale so the lecture could not be conducted. Or when Buckley scholars where spat upon. Now the Right has it's fair share of violence, much publicized but the left needs to be held accountable for it's own actions, if they want to build an egalitarian in outcome (which I disagree with) and non-violent (which I support) society. They need to start living into their commitment to non-violence.


Sure, that sounds harsh.

I've never run across such an instance occurring, though, and I've never heard of that. Then again, I live in the bumfuck end of Florida where nothing much interesting happens except crime and car accidents.

And the masters, whether they like it or not, really do have to cater to students... It's always been that way, really. It's just that students used to not be told, nor did they realize it until recently. And really, good students respect intelligence and wisdom, don't matter where it's coming from and what it is. My guess is, the master is as much at fault as the students. Same with the professor. Same with the scholars.

Students don't appreciate bias, don't matter whether it's from the left or right, and especially if the person lecturing them doesn't admit where their errors lie and if they didn't appreciate the students' criticisms.

Though, to be fair, sometimes students get stupid with their demands.

I remember one time some uppity lady didn't seem to like our professor's lecture (to be fair, it was about his experiences as a sensual masseuse, but it was related to the class... It was about sexuality, for fuck's sake). She and the professor got in a shouting match when she wasn't satisfied with the professor's obvious explanation (it's a class where we studied fucking human sexuality). I can see where she was coming from, but she was in the wrong, ultimately. Most likely, she just didn't like hearing about the very informative sexual experiences of a kindly, massively intelligent, if sometimes curmudgeonly, old man.

Scholarship in general revolves around doubt. Nothing is ever concrete unless it proves itself to be concrete. The students that drowned out the lecturer with The Internationale, for example... If there were so many students there that it would have been pointless to remove them because then there wouldn't be anybody at the assembly... Yeah, that's his fault. He was obviously somewhere where his opinions were obviously not agreed with, and/or his opinions aren't popular in general. You expect that in universities. The only respect is for the truth, and if people feel you're lying to them, they will be negative about it. It's quite possible they started singing The Internationale sarcastically. Was the guy an anti-Communist or an anti-leftist?

You got links for these incidents?

... Not that I don't trust you. I don't trust anyone, really. I like to hear both sides of the story before coming to conclusions.

Also... The right-wing is nowhere near as renowned as the left for doubting anything or being curious about anything. So, sorta makes sense the universities got "taken over" by them.

I'll try and find a link for the third incident. People don't have to like what is said but there is a difference between turning up and dismissing a lecture for it's topic out of hand before listening to it's content because it doesn't fit your personal conception of Orthodoxy,in this case post-modern activist sociology. The YouTube video there is the longest available one for the issue, it's part of a series on FIRE's website. I'd like to see what you think, also I believe the student's involved drew up a list of demands, I'll see if I can find it.The internationale was sung against a women who criticized third-wave feminism, if I recall correctly.

Demands and debate. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/gra ... president/ Some were reasonable.
