If you still don't believe that the lunatics are running the asylum, get a load of an op-ed that a civil engineering student from the University of California, Los Angeles, just penned for the the College Fix.
POLL: What scares you the most? What does it say?
In it, Sullivan Israel shares that he recently took part in an online debate about "systemic racism" sponsored by the Bruin Republicans — and that some UCLA students complained during the debate that automatic soap dispensers are racist.
Yup.
You know, the contraptions in public restrooms all across the fruited plain that magically emit gobs of liquid soap soon after you place your hands underneath them?
Anyway, Israel said one student said the dispensers "don't see her hands" because of her skin's dark pigment.
Umm, okay.
Oh, but it gets better. He added that another student said the dispensers force "black and brown bodies" to show their palms — which are "the only light areas of the skin" — before the soap will come out.

In his op-ed, Israel dismantled the growing notion that "systemic racism and white supremacy is all around us, and in everyone, and everything, a person encounters" and even more that it's "a secret force that exists everywhere, permeates all things, and wields power over society."
And he called it what it is — a "conspiracy theory."
Nonsense; they’re motion detecting dispensers.
If you think about it, so is TOILET PAPER. We must rid ourselves of these RACIST, WHITE SUPREMATIST artifacts. NOW!!
Let’s all be filthy, stupid, and ignorant - then we won’t be RACIST!
So we can look forward to this person designing buildings and bridges to be used by the public? Excellent.
Premise 1: Dirt is black.
Premise 2: Soap washes the black off.
Therefore, soap is racist.
I rests my case.
How about their teeth?
A bar of Dial doesn’t worry about skin color.
Especially if these are dispensing Ivory soap
One good thing is with all the worrying these idiots will not live long
UCLA is prestigious?
No, Israel is just reporting what someone stated.
......it’s a “RIGHT-WING” conspiracy theory, to be exact.......
I had a few women that worked for me, but you could dust them because they moved so slowly.
Actually toilet paper is not racist. I mean think about if you’re a BLM type. You’re using a white paper to wipe your bottom. That alone is reparations right there.
The dispensers are racist because non-whites have to “show their palms”? I, a white guy, do that too. I have never seen anyone dispense soap except into their palms. The manual dispenser pretty much require it. Of course, that could just be something white people do and have callously forced it on POC.
Why do I suspect that a lot of this stuff comes from people who are just looking for trouble?
These twerps have too much time on their hands! They need loads more reading assignments in college!
My hair is as white as snow. Does that mean I am racist??
