Five college students speak out: We’re fed up with campus ‘wokeness’

In recent years, college campuses have become increasingly radical, illiberal, and intolerant of dissenting opinions. Students, too scared to voice their true thoughts and feelings, often conform. They fear they will face ridicule or, worse, total exclusion via “cancel culture.” But a few brave students are fighting against the tide, including these five, who all come from different backgrounds but are united in their desire for a true liberal arts education, where all ideas are shared and respected. They told The Post why they refuse to be silenced.

“I’m a member of the recreational ballet club, and the elected officers sent an email, stating that “our perceptions of ballet have been shaped by white supremacist standards.”

Whaaat?

It is amazing to me how many accept anti-white BS. It is harmful and ultimately will lead to total fascism.

It’s amazing that so many white people accept anti-white racism. What do they think they are gaining? That they will be attacked last?

80% of people are stupid sheep and just follow the prevailing orthodoxy just so they can keep their heads down and live their lives.

I no longer wonder how or why that history is replete with societies that murder millions. We are living in a society that has murdered millions of babies since 1973.

Yep, everything coming out of the left today is total hypocrisy. They constantly scream about equality yet they bash white people. They scream about gender equality yet mock straight men as having ‘toxic masculinity’. Or the best, they lecture us about global warming yet their leaders and leftist celebrities spew more CO2 than anybody. They are insane people.

Any art form having an aesthetic that the wokesters don’t like is de facto white supremacist and racist.

These people are so tedious and such a blight on everything they infect and impose themselves on.

What is hypocritical about what they are doing?

They are fighting a revolution, and they are winning.

Winning is important, a lesson which appears lost on our guys.

Those college kids aren’t alone. I’m fed up with wholeness too. If you too are sick and tired of wokeness, I understand.

The greatest revolutionary act you can commit right now is the refusal to hate your fellow Americans.”

Geez, that’s tagline worthy.

I believe (and hope) woke culture is destined to implode and it’s respective deciples will ultimately turn on each other. In essence, to be woke demands disbelief in common sense, or as Abigail Anthony characterized it, “Self evident truths..” This is certainly apparent today as we learn more about the University of Pennsylvania’s women’s swim team.

At least some of the women athletes are starting to push back publicly against what is being stolen from them by these fake women.

Yes, these blatant injustices will become the proverbial elephant in the room.

Critical theory means every single thing, every art form, all literature, all politics, ALL is driven by power struggles, the ones on top seeking to oppress the ones on bottom. So Neo marxism critical theory replaces the upper classes/nobility with whites, and changes out the oppressed peasants with blacks/minorities/lgbqrst etc. And they see EVERYTHING as a class struggle. It’s insane and evil. Nothing can be left alone. It’s a neat little evil trick to completely undermine the foundations of a society and shred their history and culture.

As I saw on another thread, the new Snow White movie will have a black actress playing Snow White.

The key is to begin to identify and dox the woke cancel bullies. Find out who they are, where they live, and where they work.
