Why must history perpetually repeat itself?
It is not news that virtually all American universities are decidedly leftist institutions. Few Americans, however, are aware of how inhospitable they have become to free inquiry and free discourse, and how hostile they are to anyone who stands up for Western values and against the global jihad as some recent developments illustrate.
What is happening in American universities today has a clear historical parallel.
...
In his seminal history The Coming of the Third Reich, Richard J. Evans explains how, in the early days of National Socialist Germany, the universities became centers of Nazi indoctrination in which students collaborated with stormtroopers (brownshirts) to terrorize dissenters:

The 60s liberals claimed to support free speech and freedom of opposition. When they eventually came to poser, they sought to silence the opposition and approved of only the speech that parroted their opinions.
Iirc, Reagan once said that if Fascism ever came to America it would beunser the banner of Liberalism.
Folks had better wise up.
Anyway, it’ not that big a jump from accepting the concept of “hate crime” to accepting the concept of “hate speech”.
The question is, “Have things gone as far as they will go, or will it get worse, i.e., will we have a forcible, violent crackdown on conservatism sometime in the next few years?” As crazy as the leftists have become, it is still a bit difficult to imagine. Yet, during the Obama years, there has been a noticeable and accelerating move to the left in our culture; everything has been speeding up.
They are also firmly attached in every HR department of corporate America.

Government and Academia are the holes wherein leftists hide and breed. Our present fiat money and debt-issuing financial system are the life-blood of these parasites. Kill the Federal Reserve, and you kill socialism in America.
Students, yes, but also professors.
I was very much hoping to take a degree from a professor at a large public university. He is a world-class expert in his field. He is extremely well-read and much of his writing (when he stays on his subject) is genius. But, alas, he is a patent Nazi (of self-hating “Jew” type, is that perhaps the worst kind?)...and proponent of several extremist- leftist political/social “causes” that....would make me very unconfortable. I don’t want to be anywhere near such a source of hate and dissention, more or less have to work closely for several years’ of a collaborative research effort with such a sick individual.
Lesson: we can’t always tell from the outside how rotten the fruit may be inside.
It is too late to stop the movement. Like the Nazi beginning we are in deep now and the colleges are pumping hard left liberals.
I know this was a typo, but I thought it was quite apropos.
The Brownshirts never left. In recent years they have taken up the cause of Sharia, but they have been there since at least the 30s and 40s. It is just worse and worse now.
They came to flee Germany and Europe during WWII and stayed. Opened the Frankfort school in Columbia University. They are communists who opposed Germany because of their love of left-wing Ashkenazi Jews and because they wanted the power not Hitler and the Nazis.
So they were afraid of getting killed and moved here with the goal of implementing Antonion Gramsci’s and The Marxists ideals under Political Correctness. That is party how they arrived and took over.
But they also morphed in with the progressives who had infiltrated the Democratic party. The Prorgessives had been chomping at the bit to get power since the reconstruction and they eventually had five big advocates who won the presidency in Theodore Roosevelt, William Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, and Lyndon Baines Johnson. After Johnson the Dems kept following his lead more than JFK.
This has been going on for years. If people aren’t awake by now, they never will be. It will only get worse. It is in elementary schools now.
Hardly a revelation.
Conservatives, decades ago, decided to tolerate it, what with mothers and their careers and all, dads and their hobbies and all, politicians and church leaders ignoring the glaring and the obvious.
The translation is that broadly speaking, no one gave a damn.
We had two cars, TV, boy toys for the dad’s and spending money for the moms, and of course, who had time for church that was serious. Intolerable. Sunday golf, anyone? Or, let’s move to a warmer and fuzzier church that “gets it”.
Entertainment came to rule the churches.
The astute and caring homeschooled. A remnant saw the collapse of classical education curriculum and the erection of socialism and Marx. This story is just not new.

Spot on! Many liberals don’t even realize that communism and fascism were competing ideologies that were very similar like Coke and Pepsi.
Political correctness is the cornerstone of liberal power. If we can figure out how to shut down PC, we can take back our schools and our culture! PC allows them to force dissenting opinions to be censored but more commonly we all self censor our opinions due to PC! This self censorship is by far the most powerful tool the leftists have over us.
For example, 95% of all currently enrolled college students have zero understanding of what a conservative is. Their world view of conservative or ‘tea party’ thinking is that we are a bunch of violent Nazi, right wing nutbags and bible pounders who want to install a theocracy. All conservative thought and opinion has been censored and removed from pretty much every school and media outlet in the US.
In the real world, all socialism is national socialism.
In No Place to Hide, Larry Grathwohl explains .. Bill Ayers and his academic pals wanted to kill - at least - 25 million Americans.
George Soros has repeatedly called 1944 the best year of his life.
