Dr. Jordan Peterson of the University of Toronto estimates that between 300,000 and three million have gone through social justice programs to become professional grievance mongers.

To see what they have been learning, the Sargon of Akkad youtube channel and its video “social justice is a cult” is excellent insight.

This is a good example of why we need to commit to do a thorough overhaul of higher education.

We need to pass laws allowing citizens to toss out leftist, anti-American professors and, in the most egregious cases, put them on trial for sedition. Once the right laws are in place, we should establish local commissions with broad powers to investigate and clean out our colleges and universities.

During the process, many of the secular universities might have to be shut down altogether, because they are rotten to the core.

A replay of late 1800’s across Europe and birth of ‘communism’. Now the new and better ‘ism’ is call ‘Progressive’... Many people tend to ignore what lead up to Nazi Germany... and when the lying accusations get spewed out that Trump the man and or president is Nazi like, they are willingly ignoring what took place for 50 + years prior to Hitler's reign of terror.

My hope is that these students 20 years from now see the government taking their money and wake up and start using their community organizing tactics against the progressive state.

I had a college course once where the professor said he wanted everyone to be a “change agent”. I took his words to heart and have tried to work, or at least vote, for change. It may not be in the direction the professor was thinking. MAGA!

From the report Breitbart cites:

A CRUCIBLE MOMENT (2012)

In 2012 a White-House-commissioned task force led by the Association of American Colleges & Universities (AAC&U) published A Crucible Moment: College Learning and Democracy’s Future.277 It called on “the higher education community—its constituents and stakeholders—to embrace civic learning and democratic engagement as an undisputed educational priority for all of higher education, public and private, two-year and four-year.”278 This report is a notable and influential text whose content and creation illuminate the nature of the New Civics movement today. . .

While Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and President Barack Obama bear ultimate responsibility for the commissioning of A Crucible Moment, the directly responsible individuals were mid-ranking bureaucrats in the Department of Education. Martha Kanter, Under Secretary of Education from 2009 to 2013, commissioned A Crucible Moment. . .

The students, at least the smart ones, will grow up and reject it all anyway. Because it’s all a bunch of horse hockey and always has been.

This fits with my own experience in dealing with (admittedly few, by choice) young people of immediate post college age. They are predominately very left wing and rigid in their worldview whereas younger people in their mid-20’s who have gone into the trades aren’t.

True to our hiring practices, our preference almost always goes to the non-college educated.

It has been going down for decades. This is the diversity maggots attacking whites for their accomplishments and hard work. These courses are also easy pass courses for those students that have no business in higher education and they are populated predominately by Africans. The new affirmative action courses and degree programs.
