Diversity bureaucrats go full Grinch at the University of Minnesota
American Thinker ^ | December 16, 2017 | Thomas Lifson

The leftist takeover of higher education has been accomplished not merely by recruiting progressive faculty, but also by installing a vast and expensive bureaucracy intended to enforce thought control on the campus. All in the name of “diversity.”

A vivid example comes from the University of Minnesota this week.

We know to only keep holy Dec 8, Dec 25, Jan 1, Jan 6, and all the Sunday’s in between (and the Channuka days for our Jewish brothers). The rest is what it is, in moderation.

But... Now... When celebrating the rest with excessive lights and materialism is triggering the Left and Islamists - priceless!

It only starts in school. Homo SJW types have infiltrated business in the form of HR reps and Diversity managers. You will give the appearance of thinking right or there will be consequences. I am so thankful to be out of that rat race and can tell them where to stick their diversity and inclusion.

Not just higher education, but lower education, corporations, government agencies, foundations, the military, entertainment, the media, and soon... the churches.

They own everything! Gramsci is smiling in his grave.

The University of Minnesota administration should be declared a domestic terrorist group and arrested on charges of sedition and violation the First and Fourteenth Amendment rights of U.S. citizens.

...Red and Green or Blue and White/Silver decoration themes...

I can understand Minnesota (Vikings) wanting to ban Blue and White/Silver (Cowboys, Lions), but why on Earth do they want to ban the Red Green Show?

Even the Abu Dhabi mall has a Christmas tree.

That the University of Minnesota bureaucrats thinks they would be offended is in itself offensive.

Why would anyone adhere to this? I would wear anything I damned well pleased and dare them to chastise me. A COLOR can be offensive????

It's almost like these boobs are trying to satirize themselves.

A simple fact is that the wealthy and the powerful do not send their children to public schools. The cover story is that this is for security and safety.

No, it’s for maintaining an Advantage. Take steps to insure the lumpenproletariat are subject to indoctrination that kills their competitiveness and effectiveness. Fill the peasant’s children’s mind with drivel and weakness.

This is one way the elite stay Large and In Charge.

To be sure, some private schools are outposts of left-wing idiocy, but many are far more conservative and capitalist in their behind-the-ivy-walls atmospheres. These latter will educate the rulers of the next generation, who will run circles around the ideologies of the left.

Diversity and University can’t be used in the same line.

Yes, and a whole month of black history and a day off for a black preacher that had dozens of affairs and plagiarized his dissertation. No concerns at all for seperation of black church leaders and state, none.
