A decade or more ago, at a faculty party in New York City, I listened in as a diverse group of faculty spoke casually and disparagingly of "hillbillies," "rednecks" and "white trash." I reminded them that they were speaking of my own people (my ancestry is completely Appalachian), though they shouldn't really be demeaning any group, no matter who might be around. I was met by fish-eyed responses, including the comment, "Well, you left there."
My experience is not unusual. Author Anne Shelby, in an essay "The 'R' Word" for Confronting Appalachian Stereotypes (Dwight Billings, et al, eds.), writes:
If you happen to be from eastern Kentucky, as I am, then other peoples stereotypes of the place you are from are as much a part of your landscape as the hills themselves. They can loom as large and seem as permanent. You have to find your way over or around them. But unlike the mountains, which can be seen from some distance, stereotypes jump out at you in ambushat parties and meetings, at dinner with friends, from movies, from magazines and newspapers, from your favorite TV show. Even in college classes.

Radical egalitarianism (Marxism) is only about total dehumanization (total mind control) of the masses so agency and identity (individualism) is annihilated.
There is only true “equality” possible with only a true Christian worldview were humility is a virtue and we actually love others as ourselves. Jokes, etc. can only come with people who love one another. People who hate are incapable of “jokes”—they are sadistic and evil and mean. The War has always been on true Christian worldview which is the ONLY worldview which gave the masses freedom (free will and individual Natural Rights from God only).
Identity politics (Marxism) is to create groups (diversity) especially in young children to embed hate of others and self which will prevent becoming a true Christian. We are social animals and immature people prefer “The Same” and reject the Other—unless we mature and are knowledgeable. Maturity comes with truth—about ourselves as much as about others and we are getting only lies from the culture/schools, etc.
That “maturity” is impossible with lies and the trauma and indoctrination system (publik skools) which are creating useful idiots all over the world today, which is destroying the Natural family and removing small children from their biological parents and putting them into the indoctrination group-think factories so they will be emotionally crippled and easily programmed into total irrationality (Chrsitian worldview/Natural Law (Constitution) will be unintelligible to the brain-dead masses.)
We are being dehumanized (incapable of debate/interaction with humans, on purpose)-—grouped-—separated—glued to programming screens which will totally control our beliefs—on purpose, by the system, so that we will NEVER mature, NEVER like “The Other” (be true Christians, mature males and mature females).
It is Mind Control by the Freemasons/Jesuit system (Dialectic) set up before the French Revolution by Weishaupt which created the Jacobins and all the Wars and to destroy true Christianity-—wipe the possibility of that worldview in children-—right OUT of their heads.
The curricula/Hollywood/MSM has been wiping out the Christian worldview intentionally and creating little satanists (hedonists, Lucifer worshippers, etc., ) for vice creates slaves and the psychopathic elite (Freemasons) want slaves of the masses for total world control.
I do not know what “white privilege” is. I do know about cultural values.
It seems to be a paradox, but you will never meet anyone as narrow-minded, ideological and bureaucratic as an “academic.”
What we really should be discussing and evaluating is ...
When did ‘higher’ education mean cultural indoctrination?
Go to college, get a good degree, get a good job.
Seriously that mantra doesn’t exist anymore, it is all about cultural indoctrination. This kind of education doesn’t forward the American value system, dream, agenda, or national security.
College campuses are a national security threat. The cultural indoctrination which is feuling racism to graduates who can’t function on the job without being treated like melting snowflakes!
We’re churning out people who can’t function as a civic responsibility to the whole of the community. This worries me greatly as President Trump attempts to MAGA. We have a whole generation that isn’t emotionally prepared to deal with what it takes to get the job done without being coddled. This emotional instability and immaturity is what will cause Trump to fail and it won’t be his fault.
These students think they are being left behind and what has happened is they have never been in the race! And they literally don’t know how to fix their brainwashed little lives.
I haven’t met politicians as narrow-minded, ideological and bureaucratic as an academic.
Because there already a word for that .......
Academics logic is that we might not always be right but by God we are never wrong.
