When Republicans advocate for “academic freedom,” and then
get just that, they get angry
it’s not exactly what they were thinking.
Add to that the threats of government censorship, and you’ve
got a Republican Party out of control. JS:
Two leading state Republican lawmakers are threatening the University of Wisconsin System that if it doesn't remove a course called "The Problem of Whiteness" from UW-Madison's spring semester offerings, the UW's requests for more state funding and a bump in tuition may be denied during budget deliberations next year.
Republicans total lack of self awareness, especially after voting overwhelmingly for the divisive, racist, and bigoted Donald
Trump, has never been more obvious. They actually think the UW course teaches young people to
distrust each other. Folks, you can’t make this stuff up…
Rep. Dave Murphy of Greenville, said he and his staff looked at "The Problem of Whiteness" course description and the background of the professor who plans to teach it, and concluded: "We are teaching our young people to distrust each other, and that's sad," Murphy said. "We are adding to the polarization of the races in our state. This does not bring people together. This divides people."
And after decades of criticizing the UW for political
correctness, they’re now freaking out over the lack of political correctness…having it both ways? This from the Trump party of alt-right white
nationalists:
Murphy said he didn't understand "how a University that preaches political correctness can stand by a professor who openly condones violence against law enforcement and compares white voters to the KKK. If UW-Madison stands with this professor, I don’t know how the University can expect the taxpayers to stand with UW-Madison.”
The threat of government censorship...
This is the second time in less than six months that a legislator has threatened UW System funding over course offerings at the state's flagship university.Here's what that completely voluntary class teaches students, so offending our politically correct Republicans:
The university said the course title "refers to the challenge of understanding white identity and non-white identity across the globe" and that the course, "which is one of thousands offered at our university, will benefit students who are interested in developing a deeper understanding of race issues. The course is a challenge and response to racism of all kinds."
Donald Trump has brought more people together than Hillary or the libtard left.
ReplyDeleteYou can't come up with one racist quote he has said but the libtard left is always playing the racist/sexist card. Look at Van Jones calling it a "White lash." After all, it was the republicans that freed the slaves and the Democrat/Dixiecrat party that started the KKK.
And the only "bigots" are on from the intolerant crybaby libtard left.
Keep playing identity politics and make everything about race, sex, xenophobia. It's working really well for you.
The party's flipped in the 60's, and you're in denial. You're not fooling anyone but yourself. Yea, sure, the black president is a racist. You voted for Trump and I will never forgive or forget what you will end up doing to this country.
ReplyDeleteThere goes the libtard making assumptions all the time again.
ReplyDeleteActually I stayed home and voted with my money, time, energy, voice, and actions.
You still think this is a country?
The "parties" didn't flip. The liberals of the 60's moved so far left they became communists (progressives). The real liberals are the libertarians who want freedom from government tyranny. Look up "classical liberalism."
There you go again playing the race card. I never mentioned one thing about a "black president" but you immediately have to do so. I said the left always plays the racist/sexist card. Because when they throw logic and reason out the window, that's all they have left.
Please keep playing identity politics.
