Another prediction, when the protests get more violent and move out of the urban areas where it is tolerated and into the suburbs and rural areas they will get a doze of reality, protestors will die and in large numbers.
Then the media will begin to ask why the suburbs and rural America is racist and are killers, further alienating the city/country divide.
Why do you think so? Why wouldn't others suffer instead, as the creators intended?
This is what Alinsky and Rathke dreamed of. And Obama and Ayers and Dohrn.
It’s the socio-political equivalent of the “stewarding” that unethical gaited horse trainers do to ensure that their sored animals pass the physical inspection at the show ring. Probe and poke the sored feet until they flinch or react, then beat them savagely about the head until they learn to deny the pain in their hooves. It’s time to speak up and let them know that you’re onto their game.
Draw a demographic pie chart of the USA. Show the minority portion in color.
Then take the big white piece and divide it in two. Now you see the significance of "feminism". And who was the first big feminist? Betty Friedan. Look up her bio online (not Wiki -- it's been scrubbed), and notice that her high school and college years were colored by her involvement with the Communist Party. And contrary her own lie, which I read years ago in a ladies' magazine, that she left college to follow a boy to a distant city, she actually left college to go to work as a propaganda writer for the house newspaper of the biggest Communist union in the country, the Electricians' Union (q.v.).
So guess what her next assignment was, after finishing her internship at the Electricians' Union?
Radicalizing women, so that someday, someone like Barack Obama could "mobilize the masses" against the "Main Enemy": patriotic American men.
Leftist movements always eat their own in the end.
Sure, they'll pay off, no problem.
Unless they pay him off with a guillotine.
And the situation at Mizzou demonstrates that, despite the thinking of Alinsky, Ayers, Rathke and the entire universe of Academy, this crap simply doesn't work and will backfire on the very group that fostered it.
You can see the same thing happening in Europe with muslim immigration. Merkel didn't think she was overloading the system. She thought she was only being a good liberal.
Again, it backfires and she will be kicked out of office shortly.
I'd have to think about that.
Yes, Stalin had a bunch of people executed or exiled (so did Lenin), but we don't hear about any big Fidelistas going to the wall after the revolution; the North Vietnamese didn't do that to their own cadres after the war; and only a very few (Lin Piao & associates) Chinese died in the years after Mao came to power. The Khmer Rouge got cashed out by Vietnamese Communists for reasons of Realpolitik involving Khmer Rouge proximity and clientship to China, not by other Khmer Rouge, so they didn't "eat their own", either.
You're thinking of the purge trials, but that was specific to Stalin's taking control of the CPSU and turning it into a one-man dictatorship.
JMHO.
Depends on the meaning of "work" -- what's it really supposed to do? Doesn't work for the university, but maybe it works for the conspirators. So you need to frame the premise in terms of the agitators' intentions, and beyond that, of the intentions of the people who recruited the agitators, and of the people who recruited the recruiters. Who are they? They mask themselves so we can't readily detect and counteract their motives and purposes.
I'm personally positing the existence of a Communist cabal around Barack Obama, that guides him and his alleged staffers (who may be his managers instead), and that Ferguson and now Mizzou are and have been political projects of this cabal, and that their ultimate objective is the same as Lenin's was.
Of course, that's what doesn't work.
And converting a highly functioning free market republic like the U.S. into a Communist system hasn't been tried yet IIRC.
That said, I have to admit that I am going to love what academia is about to face when their liberal, politically correct student bodies turn against them.
Some people have accused Merkel of playing a deeper game (she's East German and worked for the DDR propaganda organs), and of deliberately Cloward-Pivening Germany to create the disrupted, disorderly socioeconomic environment Left radicals prosper in.
Me, I wouldn't know enough about German politics to judge.
That lost at sea look on her face over the last couple of days says it all.
When the manure really hits the fan in Germany over the next few weeks and months, she will mostly likely have to resign.
That said, I have to admit that I am going to love what academia is about to face when their liberal, politically correct student bodies turn against them.
A review of the Chinese cultural revolution:
http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2012/feb/24/cultural-revolution-portraits-xu-weixin
The Cultural Revolution was at its height, and across China teachers, former landlords and intellectuals were being humiliated, beaten and murdered. They were hounded by neighbours, colleagues and pupils moved by misguided revolutionary fervour, personal grudges or little more than whim.
