After Colorado University (CU) professor Ward Churchill came under fire for his 2001 essay Some People Push Back: On the Justice of Roosting Chickens (wherein he alleged that America’s long history of injustice and oppression had sown the seeds of foreign rage that eventually manifested itself in the 9/11 attacks), one of the most ardent supporters to rush to his defense was fellow CU faculty member Tom Mayer.

A professor of sociology, Mayer shares Churchill’s belief that the United States is a nation whose history is an uninterrupted narrative of bigotry and imperialistic aggression. And like Churchill, Mayer too loathes capitalism, which he (as a Marxist) deems an exploitative system that causes immense human suffering. During Churchill’s ordeal, Mayer depicted his beleaguered colleague as an eloquent voice of truth capable of rallying resistance against America’s purportedly intransigent evil.

Will the section on White Privilege address the percentage of Combat Deaths suffered by White Men?

Do you have to bring your own funnel to the binge-drinking class or is one provided?

im glad someone finally told me - it wasnt my hard work that got me where i was today. it wasnt because i worked 60 hour weeks to pay for college, worked hard to get through college. it was because i was white! all i had to do was flash my white race card and people gave me everything i wanted! it was because of white priviledge!

“The course debuted last fall as a pilot program with 31 students, but the lower-than-expected enrollment made it difficult for school officials to conduct a solid review of it...

“...attributed the low enrollment to the fact most students had already registered for classes when the 101 course first became available. He said he believes there is interest in the course.”

Yet another example of how Liberal pukes ignore reality.

"This is something I think is sorely needed. So many students at CU lack multicultural education and education about white privilege."

Let me translate this drivel: "So many students have avoided indoctrination and brainwashing by going to private schools or by being home-schooled that our homosexual, hate-America-first and white-guilt agendas are at risk. Like all fascists systems, those who don't toe the line need to be sent to reindoctrination camps."

"Ideally, I think that it would be excellent for all incoming students to take it," said Brown, a senior English major.

Let me fix this:

"Ideally, speaking as head student fascist at CU, all comrades at CU should be forced to undergo this indoctrination," said Brown, a senior English major and future mocha latte server at Starbucks.

Why would anyone want to go to the University of Colorado, in light of War Churchill and this new non-sense about having to study and understand so-called yet non-existent “white privilege?”

This “white privilege” concept was dreamed up by white-hating bigots who could not explain, without tripping on some truths of life, why Western culture dominates the world.

So deep is their resentment that they needed to invent this nonsensical “club” with which they hope to bludgeon white people into accepting their convoluted view of the world.

And that convoluted view is that white people didn’t get Western culture to where it is by hard work, perseverance and sacrifice, but by somehow “robbing” other peoples of their “rightful” possessions.

The fact that Western society has single handedly raised the standard of all life on the planet is particularly galling to these hate mongers, so it becomes even more important to beat those “privileged white MFers” into believing that their contributions were neither that good nor important.

Hey, U of C, wanna see a hate-mongering racist?

Go look in the mirror.

From this link...

In Focus: Cultural Relativism

...In fact it's quite strange the way a line of thought that's intended to side with the oppressed often sides with oppressors in the name of multiculturalism. A great many practices could be put in the box 'their culture'. Dowry murders, female infanticide, female genital mutilation, slavery, child labour, drafting children into armies, the caste system, beating and sexually abusing and witholding wages from domestic servants especially immigrants, Shariah, fatwas, suttee. These are all part of someone's 'culture', as murder is a murderer's culture and rape is a rapist's. But why validate only the perpetrators? Have the women, servants, slaves, child soldiers, Dalits, ten-year-old carpet weavers in these cultures ever even had the opportunity to decide what their culture might be?

Yeah, let's hear it for multiculturalism.

The radical left got into “higher education” and successfully prevented normal people from being hired. They have perfected the art of indoctrination. I now think that this has gone so far that it has the opposite effect to that which the lefties want. I think that it is showing normal people that they are really NOT racists and that the radical lefties are racists.
