Berkeley is so left-wing……that when 7th- and 8th-graders at an expensive prestigious private school are asked to design their own tiles for a permanently displayed mosaic, they draw a big hammer-and-sickle and declare as their message to the world, “Capitalism will fail.”
The communist message is part of a school mosiac for the Class of 2007 at Black Pine Circle School, which has a reputation as one of the best private K-8 schools in the city. (Most of the other tiles in the mosaic are what you typically might expect from 13- and 14-year-olds: declarations of friendship and personal messages that are generally inscrutable to adults.)

Child abuse.
These idiots want control of the means of production but have no respect for it or those who built it.
The result of subversion that WE are allowing to happen.
This never gets old and its worth re-posting.....

Idiots!
So much for being “the best private school”.
I just read “Raven” by Tim Reiterman. It amazed me that so many people were duped by Jim Jones’ communist/socialist rhetoric as to give up everything to fuel his “socialist paradise”. I believe that the followers fell into two basic camps:those that were truly deluded into thinking he was their socialist god, or those whose pride would not let them admit that they were wrong. We are on the same path in this country today.
The kid who did the “capitalism will fail” tile is probably just a teacher’s pet giving the adults want they want.
Doesn’t mean that he actually buys it- just that he is well aware of his surroundings and what views he needs to have to survive and thrive.
His real attitude probably leans more toward apathy in the political process- afterall he is 14.
My nephew goes to University of Berkeley ...he’s a capitalist and very bright BUT his politics are LEFT. It’s crazy. He had a perfect S.A.T. and was asked to visit somem very good schools ... BUT chose Berkely.
Where did these butt wipes think the money came from to send them to pivate schools...
And,
1. He'd fail the class if he wrote "Rush is Right!"
2. He wouldn't get on the news if he wrote "America - Love it or Leave it!"
How many private K-8 schools are there in Berkley?
It makes me wonder what careers these students will choose when they get a little bit older. I imagine that quite a few of them will become community organizers, union bosses, Democrat politicians, and ambulance chasing lawyers. How many of them will actually produce something constructive? My guess would be none.
Parents are really getting value for their bucks.
Schools can’t instill values...Difficult to teach children the truth when they are surrounded by COMMIE parents and other koooks in Berkley......Might have to wall it off like San Francisco. It would be a great movie.....ESCAPE FROM BERKLEY!! Wonder if Kurt Russel could still play a action hero? LOL
This was posted on Pajamas Media: Moderates would say, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down half this wall.”
I’ve thought since the first time I saw Obama speak that he was Jim Jones in different skin.
The similarities in philosophy, speaking style and mannerisms are so similar I’d bet Obama has watched video of Jones and emulated him.
Eh. Young teenage boys winding people up. They don’t realize that if they really wanted to be transgressive in a place like Berkeley, they’d do better to write “Question Diversity.”
