Washington Post Op-Ed Demands Name Change at George Washington University
Breitbart ^ | 11 May 2022 | John Nolte

Posted on 05/12/2022 4:21:29 PM PDT by Rummyfan

The Washington Post — a newspaper named Washington — published an editorial calling for a name change at George Washington University.

You can’t make this sh*t up.

The op-ed, written by a senior currently attending George Washington University, is 800 or so words of the usual-usual, shockingly ignorant moral preening we’ve come to expect from the Woke McCarthyites. So let me sum it up: This university is racist, and George Washington was racist, and while I didn’t find this offensive enough to pass up attending school here, harrumph, harrumph, harrumph, half-truth, half-truth, half-truth, I’m so virtuous, I’m so virtuous, I’m so virtuous…

This crybaby loon also wants Winston Churchill blacklisted from the campus:

The controversial Winston Churchill Library must go. The university’s contentious colonial moniker must go. Even the university’s name, mascot and motto — “Hail Thee George Washington”— must be replaced. The hypocrisy of GW in not addressing these issues is an example of how Black voices and Black grievances go ignored and highlights the importance of strong Black leadership.

He’s even upset over pure nonsense like this:

No African languages are taught at the university, and calls for reforms are often ignored.

Why would a university teach African languages? College is about preparing you for the future. I cannot think of a single African language that is a common language.

My primary takeaway from this op-ed is that if the author represents the kind of imbecilic, non-thinkers produced at George Washington University, there should definitely be a name change over there. But it’s the word “university” that should change because that university isn’t teaching anyone anything.

It's also one of the most expensive universities in the country. What an effing joke....

Well there is Arabic in the north, and Swahili in the east.

We need to stop honoring George Washington Carver. Black though he may have been, his name brings back memories of the chains and slavery all blacks suffered through to the very day. His name must be eviscerated from our collective memories!

Nazis and commies. Still trying flush everything American. Only a real commie maggot would subscribe to that Washington Post fish wrap. The best place to learn to speak like an African is in Africa. American colleges don’t need to be wasting money on that Jungle Jive.

Most of the tribes did not even have written languages. All was passed down orally.

This is hilarious. Those people at the WaPo are using way too many drugs and scooping way too much KY jelly.

If you want to operate in Africa the best languages to learn are English, French, Arabic, and Portuguese.

Most countries have one or the other of these as their legal and official language, and most people in the cities speak one of these languages, depending on which country.
