HOW LOW CAN YALE SINK?
Powerline ^ | 5 June 2021 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 06/05/2021 8:07:01 PM PDT by Rummyfan

It is no wonder that Yale doesn’t want to risk having any independent members on its Board of Trustees. There are still quite a few sane alumni, and if they got to vote for a candidate of their choice, you never know what might happen.

This observation is prompted by the fact that on April 6, Yale’s School of Medicine sponsored a talk by a psychiatrist–God help us!–named Aruna Khilanani, on the topic “The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind.” Bari Weiss has audio of the event and a transcript of an interview of Dr. Khilanani by a self-described liberal.

Dr. Khilanani is a hater who herself appears to be in need of some kind of treatment...

...

The woman, to be blunt, is an idiot. Worse, a violently hateful idiot. But that isn’t a surprise; she notes that her “masters is in humanities and the focus is largely on critical theory.” “Critical theory” is more or less synonymous with racism.

What is remarkable is not that people like this exist, it is that they are now being sponsored and held up as admirable academics by Yale University. I am so old, I can remember when Yale was a respectable institution. No longer.

I know this got a lot of play today, but I thought this was a good take on it. Elihu Yale is turning - spinning furiously! - in his grave.

Aruna, if you want to kill white people, start with trying to kill me.

Khilanani took an axe, and gave a white man 40 whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave another forty-one.

Ya gotta say some pretty crazy sh*t to get noticed, these days.

Q: “I just wonder how this woman ever got into and got through medical school.”

A: Black Privilege and the structural, anti white racism that pervades academia

Let me play contrarian:

If you consider how the Wokesters® are messing everything up, making the board self-perpetuating might be a wise measure ... at least until wokeness passes.

Yes, that pshrink was off the wall, her clinical vision skewed by her ideology. But the board had nothing to do with that.

Really, I'm just guessing. But imagine if Wokesters® ever got control of Yale's zillion dollar endowment.

Ivy League elitism isn’t what it used to be. It’s become quite bizarre. When people stop hiring their grads, perhaps they will change.

230 grains of lead therapy would set her right.

Although the following sentence makes me think the elections might be rigged:

I think this woman is Indian (as in India), based on her name. She is Hindu, per her bio.

Substitute the word white with black, or hispanic, or asian, and see how long it would take for her professional certificates to be revoked.

CRT logic is so convenient. Asserting that all white people are racist is not racist. But denying that all white people are racist is racist. CRT demands that whites submit to the accusation that they are racist. CRT’s goal is black supremacy. Too bad so many of its authorities are psycho grifters.
