There is only a differing opinion which the "open-minded" little progs hate and actively silence or censor.
That makes THEM the haters.
Columbia swarming with "little progs"--a campus bristling with a thousand ears & eyes.
Idiot children have no idea about the range of thought in the outside world. They really think they support free speech because they don’t know what they are oppressing.
What kind of gum?
Arianna told the truth.
Astrid is a stone faced Commie thugette.
Astrid, a senior, told Fox News. “I don’t think that I’ve personally experienced or witnessed the suppression of free speech at Columbia.”
Naturally, in fact Astrid, there have probably been zero speakers with conservative viewpoints scheduled to speak there. Now why may that be?
That's the problem with the Left in a nutshell. Their mental defect prevents them from seeing what's right in front of them.
It's Dunning-Kruger on display. Worse, it's Dunning-Kruger as part of a school's recruiting program. They don't want someone who sees and thinks because they'll go somewhere else and learn something.
Schools like Columbia are where the mentally defective go to legitimize their deficient thinking.
The student comments show just how clueless they are about free speech.
I visited the campus just before the lockdowns. I thought I was in Beijing.
So open-minded their brains fell out.
If you said “black men commit over 50% of violent crime in America”, despite it being factually correct, these idiots would label it hate speech.
CU students: “If that’s how they feel, we should ban them.”
“People should just be more careful about what they say,” he added.
SMDH…

Sorry. Gym
As an alumnus of Columbia, I can say categorically that you are mistaken about predominance of Jews at Columbia. Yes, like just about any New York area school, there is a significant representation of Jews but no where near predominant. NYU might be closer, but I don’t know.
Barnard College of Columbia U. Is said to be one-third Jewish. Maybe that’s where the rep comes from.
NYU is around 25% Jewish. Only the Jewish private schools (and Barnard) have a higher percentage.
"I think that there is definitely a homogenous point of view at school, but I don't think that opposing points of view are necessarily suppressed either," ...But Astrid added that "hate speech should definitely at least be monitored" on campus.
IOW, she and her "majority" are bigoted jackholes and fascists.
Lol, Arianna, Astrid, and Aarush.
most of them only have an 8th grade education at best
Ok “predominance” is the wrong term. There probably is a better way to say it. So I’ll try this way. And see if you agree. Up until 1900 or so the students at columbia were predominantly WASP. After 1900 even as the number of WASP’s declined and WASP’s were no longer predominant, the culture of columbia remained WASP. However, in the 1960’s-1970’s the culture of columbia shifted to being liberal jewish—even though liberal jews were not the majority students—even though liberal jews were not predominant. I have not been to columbia in a decade or more—but its likely now that the culture at columbia has shifted again. this time they have shifted away from being liberal jewish to something else because the left has become ever more stridently anti semetic.
