A man-on-street video. The University of Michigan took some pretty big steps toward stifling free speech on its campus this month with its “Inclusive Language” program. They’ve even gone as far as to create a list of “unacceptable words”. Just how important is the 1st amendment to students today. I’m pretty sure that after watching the video, you’ll feel more compelled to protect the 1st amendment than ever before!
Illegal alien....agree (that that’s offensive). Jeez!
I’m not ONE bit surprised....our CommieCore and dumbing down of our youth, over the last 2 -3 decades is paying off in spades (oops, is that offensive?) for the libs and our higher level indoctrination stations.
(Brrrrr....I had to put a sweater on after watching this vid....how many inches of snow did UofM get, during filming?)
Youth is wasted on the young.
Haha at one point it was way too cold to snow! Notice all the layers?
I was also wearing under-amour tights and long-johns!
Hippies were largely Libertarian.
The jerks deserve the future they are helping to create. Screw ‘em.
You do realize that your attitude helps no one right?
It’s why were losing. Conservatives say “screw’em!”
Liberals say “We’ll take them!”
... and we’ll never win again.
And the left is worried about Scott Walker not having a degree. This is Howard dean and lefts idea of a college education, Skull of mush.
Bunch of niggardly idiots on that campus..
Good Job Comrade
What a shame that they aren’t taught what true freedom really is, the right to say anything that you want but the self-control not to.
Yes, we will.
Screw ‘em. Defeat ‘em. Pound them into irrelevancy.
Few of them are capable of being saved from their stupidity, let alone worth the effort. Let the left have them.
Worse, those who do become successful become Soros, Clinton, Obama, and their ilk. But that level of evil is beyond our efforts to change. Maybe God will (he can, of course), and we should pray for such, but they aren’t worth any other efforts.
Focus on more fertile minds. And again, screw the evil ignorant scum.
They’re using free speech to condemn free speech? How quaint.
Btw, they can’t say “crazy” or “insane”:? Who will that offend? Some of the profs?
They claim that it’ll offend people with clinically diagnosed mental disorders.
A reach, I know. But students have bought it!
Defeat’em? So you think that an aging demo (median demo for Conservative media is 72 today) can “defeat” an entire, larger generation by saying “screw’em”? Re-education, and reaching out doesn’t factor into your plan at all?
Like, for realzies?
I think these students would benefit from reading “The Language of the Third Reich” by Victor Klemperer.
In the book, Klemperer details how the nazis manipulated the German language as a means of manipulating the German people into becoming more accepting of nazi goals and ideals.
Well that is a fairly large group. They’re usually called liberals. ;-)
