We need to fundamentally transform our way back out of this.

Colleges are not going to restructure.

You have a nice day. :)

“Democrats continue to believe in political segregation and oppression on campus”

Oh No, they believe in racial segregation.

The UC system admits gleefully that they bypass California Prop 209 limits all the time by using proxy criteria. ANYTHING to make sure no White male is ever allowed on campus.

They will if the money risk is moved from the govt and to them. How many colleges will support a Master’s of Puppetry course (Google it) and have to underwrite $200,000 in loans.

Universities act like the worst segregationists

DemocRATS love to divide, divide, divide. They just love finding more and more ways to divide us up, and then pit one group against another. They are, after all, the party of segregation and the KKK.

Stanford University, while touting and celebrating ‘diversity’ has developed segregated housing: Ujamaa House is for African-American; Okada House is for Asians; Casa Zapata is for Chicanx and Latinx (99% of Spanish speakers do not like the new Latinx phraseology, and they do not speak Latin either).

The Stanford University website explains: “”Our ethnic theme communities have a rich and long history of engaging students at the highest levels of intellectual discovery and advancing diversity””

‘Advancing diversity’ by segregation. Sounds right out of 1984.

Charlie was, first and foremost, an evangelist for Jesus. Secondly, he was a husband and a father. Thirdly, he was a proud American.

The ‘war’ happening between the ‘right’ and the ‘left’, is NOT a political war. It is a SPIRITUAL war that has been occurring from the Beginning. It is now however, coming to a head.

Charlie Kirk was killed for his faith in Jesus. No surprise there. He spoke the gospel in ‘synagogue of satan’ (aka universities and colleges), so this attack is no surprise. One need only read Matthew 10:22, John 15:20.

Mr. Greenfield cannot understand, as he does not hold the same religious beliefs.

The leftists in university administrations are really committing sedition. Maybe when they are all in prison things will get better.

It’s a war.
Like most wars it is complex and with many fronts and many allies.
Focusing efforts on just one element is not a strategy for victory.
A more comprehensive and flexible approach is required.
So far, I’ve not seen anyone in positions of influence offer a battle plan.

I submit that is fundamentally incorrect and that two of those combatants are marching forward arm in arm...

Please ask yourself which political force tends to accept a God and supports and attempts to live life in a spiritual manner?

OTOH, which political force denies a God and spurns all things of a spiritual nature?

Matthew 24:43
“But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.” 📖

SOCRATES: Now imagine this. If such a person goes back down into the cave and ends up back in the same boat as the other prisoners, would his eyes not be filled with darkness after he suddenly comes out of the sun?
GLAUCON: To be sure.
SOCRATES: And what would happen if such a person were once again to compete against the permanent cave dwellers in judging those shadows? Remember that his sight would still be weak before his eyes once again got used to the darkness, and the recovery time could be considerable. Would he not, then, become the butt of jokes, and would they not say about him that up he went and down he came with his eyes totally destroyed, and that it is not advisable even to think of climbing up? And if someone attempted to free another prisoner and then lead him upwards, would they not kill that leader if they could only lay their hands on him?
GLAUCON: No doubt

If the 200,000 people who attended Charlie Kirk’s memorial, and the millions who watched it at home or after the fact, would stop sending their kids to the colleges that want to indoctrinate them for the “progressive” left, we might have a chance.

1 in 3 students support using violence to silence opposing speakers. 7 out of 10 want to shout down controversial speakers like those who oppose the transgender and BLM movements.

Nine+ years ago:

There is no logical reason for brick and mortar colleges today: online instruction is more cost effective.
