Tufts to remove mural with only white people 'to attract a diversity of people'
Campus Reform ^ | July 1, 2019 | Brittany Slaughter

A Massachusetts university has decided to take down a historical mural after students complained that the paintings depicting only white men eroded the school’s commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Tufts University stated in a news release that the Alumnae Lounge mural, which depicts “the great names of men” who informed the school’s history, does not include “a single image of a person of color, for example, despite the fact that black students were enrolled at Tufts as early as the late nineteenth century.”

Same for THIS mural at George Washington High School in San Francisco:

THIS is the part that got them pissed off:

It looks like they're STANDING on a dead Indian, right?

Here's the thing: Liberal San Francisco "educators" WANTED a mural that accurately depicted "the suffering of the natives under the settlers". So they got some pissed-off, professionally offended artist to paint THAT, and he did.

They got it.

THEN they were mad about what they got.

If you bought a bag of chips, then looked in your hands and saw A BAG OF CHIPS, would you be angry..?

And THAT is the dilemma of Groups of Liberation; do they want to thrive OUTSIDE the host culture, or thrive INSIDE it?

In most cases, they want it BOTH ways, and they rapidly switch back and forth.

Once you start accomodating that, there is no turning back.

Students complained and nobody cares kids always whine it’s what they do it’s all they know.
It’s why so many end up homeless to lazy to get of the free lunch wagon.

I forgot to add:

They’re demanding that this mural now be painted over.

What is the COST of painint it over?

$60 —no, I lied.

The cost, they say, will be $6,000.

But I lied again..!

They’re saying just painting over it will cost SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS.

You think that’s a lie, right? Yet, no —an Environmental Impact Report is first necessary.

You’re reasonable, so you THINK that last part is a lie. BUT IT’S NOT.

The point of these games is to force people to lose... it’s a control thing.

Its just a part of the leftard con job to steal America.

Th leftard pitch:

1) first leftards have to make themselves paragons of virtue and goodness, trying to right a wrong
2) then they have to make the gullible naive target feel like a victimizer/oppressor who must feel guilty
3) then make the target atone by giving the unearned, the undeserved, and something for nothing to the leftards

What we are seeing is what we have seen for the past 80 years.

The left have taken over many institutions. They want to change things but they know they can not do so without cover.

For many years the ACLU provided the cover. They threaten to sue over something and those in charge give in. What the public did/does not understand is that both parties in the lawsuit want the same thing. The ACLU (or in this case a complaint by some students) provides the cover to do what they want to do anyway.

It is all a kubuki show and our culture is the loser.

I’m beginning to gather words which indicate a strong coefficient of intellectual inability.

Among them:

Diversity
Inclusiveness
Woke
Phobia
Reparations

Suggestions?

How about we find some non-white, female or trans people from a list like this and add their face to the mural?

The LGBTQ crowd demanded “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell”, and got it from Bill Clinton... and ten years later, the same LGBTQ folks used it as a sledgehammer to attack Republicans, for passing such an evil discriminatory policy.

When will this stop?

The only remaining question is whose skulls will the pile be made of?

“White people” and “Christians” are the new “Jews” in America.

If this growing hated for, open denigration of, and attacks against “white people” isn’t vigorously resisted and quashed quickly, then widespread discrimination, of and violence against “white people” is going to exponentially increase to the point that in five or ten years from now the “Antifa” fascist thug attacks taking place in Portland Oregon are going to be “the new ‘normal’”.

What is taking place today reminds me of the build up to Mao’s “cultural revolution” and Pol Pot’s genocide against their own people who stood in the way of their COMMUNIST plans and utopian wet dream.

Let the denunciations, “show trials”, “reeducation camps” and wholesale slaughter begin!

One more thing: never forget it was Mao, and Pol Pot’s fanatical YOUNG FOLLOWERS who made their wicked, murderous, plans and programs a reality.

And the brain washed youth were directly, and overwhelmingly responsible for the carnage and horrors that took place.

The COMMUNIST left in America havery been and are indoctrinating and grooming generations of young people in the same manner to carry out their “plans”?

All I can encourage people to do is pray and prepare, lest we become victims of their Satanic, nefarious plan to “fundamentallytransform America”.
