The City College of New York’s Young Democratic Socialists of America chapter wants the school’s Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) kicked off campus, according to a Monday report.
The college’s YDSA chapter announced its desire to ban the group from campus in a flyer presumably found on campus and posted to Twitter Friday, reported Campus Reform.
“ROTC off our campus,” said the socialist students. “The rich will never die for you…don’t die for the rich.”

I agree to all of your denials of federal aid. In my opinion one of the reasons there are so many communists and extremely left (or minorly left) liberals in universities is because it is a bird’s nest on the ground, easily utilized for any political purpose.
Woody Gutherie’s guitar didn’t “kill fascists” until after Pearl Harbor. It was quite content with defending Fascism for years.
These snots think they will be the nomenklatura. But look at history. Their equals back in the Russian Revolution were among the first to be shot. If not by Lenin, then by Stalin.
The rich of the 1960s WERE the radical Communists in full support of the North Vietnamese military. Jane Fonda, Jerry Rubin, the Milbrook acid heads,...
That’s great...so true!
Heard on OAN that one college shutdown its organization of "outside activities" such as hiking, canoeing etc.
They said that the outdoors was too dangerous for activity.
Can you effin believe that.
Bunch of pu$$ys that are being raised today and they already run our colleges to indoctrinate the next class.
AGREED.
Remember the QUAD with the Free Speech area or patio?
Let the loons get their soap box and expound their views out in the open without any amplification or shelter.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songs_for_John_Doe
The album was released in May 1941, at a time when World War II was raging but the United States remained neutral. The Soviet Union and Nazi Germany were still at peace, as provided by the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. American Communists and “fellow travelers”, including the Almanacs, followed the anti-interventionist stance dictated by the Soviet Union through the Comintern, which accounts for the appearance of anti-war songs on the album.
However, on June 22, Germany invaded the Soviet Union. The Almanacs changed direction and began agitating for U.S. intervention in Europe. Songs for John Doe was quickly pulled from distribution, and those who had already purchased copies were asked to return them. After the Japanese attacks on Pearl Harbor, in February 1942 the Almanacs went into the studio to record a set of songs supporting the American war effort. The new political line was evident on the group’s 1942 album, Dear Mr. President.
It contained lines such as, “It wouldn’t be much thrill to die for Du Pont in Brazil,” that were sharply critical of Roosevelt’s unprecedented peacetime draft (enacted in September 1940).
...A June 16, 1941, review in Time magazine, which under its owner, Henry Luce, had become very interventionist, denounced the Almanacs’ John Doe, accusing it of scrupulously echoing what it called “the mendacious Moscow tune” that “Franklin Roosevelt is leading an unwilling people into a J. P. Morgan war.”
... In a review in the June 1941 Atlantic Monthly, entitled “The Poison in Our System,” he pronounced Songs for John Doe “...strictly subversive and illegal,” “...whether Communist or Nazi financed,” and “a matter for the attorney general,” observing further that “mere” legal “suppression” would not be sufficient to counteract this type of populist poison,[34] the poison being folk music and the ease with which it could be spread.
The halt federal funding for the school. In fact if this is someone’s stated position cut their govt bennies.
That is such a sad state of affairs we have going on.
As proven by the Venona Project, 1943-80, which showed Moscow literally ordering the activities of the CPUSA.
They refer to themselves as Social Justice Warriors.
But these 'warriors' cower at the sight of a toy gun or an ROTC recruiting poster.
More accurately they should be referred to as Social Justice Whores.
So they don’t like the backbone of America. What a shock!
Freedom. Let them have what they want.
Remove the ROTC program from their college, along with any and all Federal money they receive, and any accreditation they might have. No more Federally backed student loans for students attending this cesspool, either.
I believe that is already required....I know the discussion has come up multiple times over the years.
The new breed of liberal wants to be rich and socialist so these college kids are disingenuous but they do want to import illegal illiterate poor and keep blacks on the plantation. Just look at all of the mentally deranged liberal Billionaires. President Trump is one of the few exceptions.
Should the U.S. revive the military “draft” those snowflakes would be the first to disappear up to Canada.
Your comment is a slur against hard working prostitutes. Why compare them to useless SJW oxygen thieves?
I’ll bet they smell really bad too.
Should the U.S. revive the military “draft” those snowflakes would be the first to disappear up to Canada. ........................ Naaaah, today all they have to do is bring a doctors note stating that guns offend them. If they won’t serve here they won’t serve anywhere. Their kind would just pack a suit case and wait for the black vans to arrive at 2 a.m. to take them away. As far as ROTC, want a commission, graduate college and report for OCS.
