Wonder who’s paying his bills?

Always interesting to find out who’s money a socialist is spending. It is rarely their own.

He will do well in the revolution. But after the revolution he will cross someone higher up and end up facing a wall in a tiled cellar.

Meets every single point in the definition of “TREASON”.

Why is this guy still breathing US air?

How is this not “giving aid and comfort to the enemy”?

His university biography cites his interests as “decolonization, revolution, metaphysics, [and] consciousness,” with his research topics focusing on “question of the self, soul, and spirit..

A lost soul, in need of repentant salvific faith in the risen Lord Jesus, as does a feminist wordcrafter in wokeducation who he would likely find some kniship with, warring against what God ordained, teaching that:

"...intersections with race, ethnicity, coloniality, class and ability, the sex/gender system of oppression has long served as a taxonomizing apparatus. And yet, the literary, in league with anticolonial, civil rights and LGBTQ social movements,...animates the liberatory potential of imagining embodied relations otherwise... representations of gender and sexuality can leverage critiques against normativity...Taking our transnational cue from subjugated knowledges and intersectional epistemologies, we’ll constellate the diverging genealogies and methodologies...
Against the traffic of binary opposition, we’ll index the possibilities of intimacy and performativity... As a class collective, our aim is to read and reread as well as write and rewrite texts that interrogate and complicate how gender and sexuality, as contested sites of pleasure and pain, are embodied and experienced."
This counts toward the methods requirement for the major. Prerequisite: ENGL 103 or 104. Open only to first-year and sophomore students.

Author is Brianna Thompson, who teaches courses in American women’s literature, queer theory and utopias/Afrofuturism at Kenyon college (founded by Episcopal Bishop in 1824). Course is Reading and Writing Gender and Sexuality ENGL 214, https://www.kenyon.edu/academics/departments-and-majors/english/academic-program-requirements/courses-in-english/

Her college was founded in 1824 by Episcopal Bishop Philander Chase, who now has a potential candidate ("Brianna Thompson") for the office of implementation of WOKE policies under the auspices of a Council of Transexuality:

Back in the early 70s I had a college class dealing with the limits of Gov’t power. The professor came in, maybe 5’2” and shaped like the Pillbury doughboy.

He said he felt that he should tell the class that he was a Socialist and that communism would defeat capitalism. He appeared to be eager for outraged response, ready to do battle.

Nobody said anything. The girls were filing their nails, looking bored. Guys were doodling in their notebooks.

I was embarrassed for the little guy. I felt like I should jump up and shout that he was a communist traitor or some such, at least give him a little recognition as a radical.

The class ended up being excellent. He didn’t let his political views influence the content, he was a good teacher. He also had the good sense to give me an A on the final when I argued unlimited Gov’t power would lead to totalitarianism and unlimited corruption.

Someday the rich boy is going to be some Arab shiek’s biatch. He’ll end up being The Queen of the Desert Caravans. Give the camels a break.

All the service academies have been corrupted by far left DEI, wokism, CRT, etc. It was greatly accelerated by Obama as part of his “fundamental transformation “.

The service academies are just as liberal as Harvard, Berkeley, etc now. It ensures the officer corps stays indoctrinated in far left Marxist thinking.

studying “Modern Arab intellectual history.”

Will be the world’s shortest thesis even penned.

Becky Sue Fancher’s 3rd grade report on the pig farm she visited over summer vacation will prove more substantial.

>A West Point graduate who first made headlines for his “Communism will win” message written in his uniform cap is now a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Texas at Austin (UT) studying “Modern Arab intellectual history.”

Sounds like a short dissertation.

No surprise. They just gave Obama some worthless award. West Point is another destroyed institution.

Those impressed with their own brilliance seldom get the opportunity to actually live in or under a system they believe is superior to what we have here. I wonder why they seldom leave the good old USA to experience first hand the joys of what they promote. Could it be they are cowards, or could it be they know deep down the “righteousness “ they wish to embrace is all just an act.
