Fascism sure is becoming popular these days. We keep seeing more and more of these little Nazis pop up around the country.

Social Justice. Right out of Karl Marx.
It is amazing how many people and institutions fall into the trap of this. Just goes to show how little is known about what is real is what is a dream.

It wasn’t so long ago that people like her were the dissenting opinion. At that time, they said that they were all for academic freedom.

“Social Justice. Right out of Karl Marx. “
It is Frankfurt School Marxism I believe.

Democrats have not approved of freedom since they realized that it got in the way of power for them.

Tell me again how much more edumacated ivy league school grads are than the rest of us. This chick will graduate unfit to do anything but teach hate to the next generation of mind-numbed zombies, or to work for a rat politician. Either way the productive citizens of this country will be subsidizing her sorry butt for the rest of her hopefully short life.

The sad thing about this is, no way this drooling idiot Sandra chick will ever be confronted by anyone at Harvard for her morally diseased and grotesquely unethical proposal.

Liberals have long been offended by Liberty.
And “free speech” — to the left —has always meant shouting down opposing viewpoints.

I was just in Harvard Square a few hours ago.When I go there I play a little game in my mind trying to spot the one student in 500 that would stand up at the Rat Party convention shouting...ENOUGH!

[Art.]
In her column she argues that dissenting views are intolerable in academia, and therefore merit no consideration by students or staff. Simon Winchester popularized, in his books, some academic theories and sacred cows that were incorrect and inadequate, and held intellectual progress at bay for as long as they were in vogue in academe.
Examples: Neptunism, in geology, which was finally overthrown after a vogue of some 50 years, and Lysenkoism, which didn't last as long but claimed the lives of dozens of dedicated Soviet academicians and geneticists who dissented from its spurious teaching and were severely punished by Stalin.
