First, they came for the “intellectuals”. /s
Of course they are going to get worse. History demands it.
The difference between the 60s and now is back then there was a government in place to oppose them.
Good. Maybe now the smart people will become plumbers, electricians, and such. Universities can just become public housing projects with a good library and meals served by Mexicans.
They can no longer control the monsters they created.
But back then, just as now, the college administrators were scared senseless to take on the student agitators ... probably moreso today since the current administrators have been complicit in teaching the student agitators how to effectively carry out their misdemeanors which are devolving into criminal behavior.
I agree with the author up to the point that the pendulum will swing the other way. It more or less did already in the late 1970’s and under Reagan, but it won’t this time.
The purge and game is now on. The summer of riots has given way to the campus revolution.
We may have our own cultural revolution brewing on campuses across the country. And the first to be destroyed are the old like liberals who created this monster. Too bad, no sympathy here.
It will eventually be replaced by the internet anyway, with an array of exams used to certify and prove proficiency.
The Liberals in academia have brought about their own demise.
Good riddance.
Who is going to hire anyone from one of these schools?
Charlea.... what happens when they finally decide to fight back?
I don’t think the US has ever seen racism of the scale and intensity as with these folks.
When corporate America figures out how worthless a college degree is, what will happen next? Well it’s actually pretty easy to figure out.
I agree.
Hillsdale is already here.
This is a needed thing in my opinion. The lefts implosion in their own Petri dish may set the stage for a wider confrontation that has been simmering for years now, and there’s a lot of the country who has been left out of the conversation - people who will put it down with a vengeance.
It won’t work out well for you, girlfriend.
The Left Wing Students are now at war with the Left Wing College Professors. And all this race stuff, this is out of hand. I couldn’t afford to go to a university and instead attended a community college. I also worked PT, lived in a house with 3 other students, lived on ramen rice and beans, we had one phone for the house, a push lawnmower for the lawns, no video games, and no time for silly protests like this. Sounds like college today has too much free time for students, not enough education (too liberal) and even the professors are joining in on this (They must have too little to do also)
So why does college cost so much more then when I went, as the students and professors have nothing to do and no educational value is coming out of it?
Because university is no longer it.
