MORNING RANT: The Shocking Discovery that Universities Promoting Racial Hatred Are Full of Racial Hatred

The extreme anti-Semitism that has become the cultural norm at elite American universities has somehow caught many on the left by surprise. It shouldn’t have.

Following the murder and kidnapping spree by Hamas terrorists in southern Israel, normal people felt revulsion and anger. But on elite college campuses, there was euphoria about Hamas’ brutality and open support for anti-Jewish terror. Jews on campus even became targets for harassment, with a general acquiescence from campus administrators who consider a mob calling for the murder of Jews to be just a youthful form of self-expression.

If universities had pretended to be colorblind places that were intolerant of ethnic hatred and racial discrimination, the Jew-hatred would be shocking. But elite universities actively promote racial discrimination and ethnic hatred, and have for quite a while. So once it was established that hatred and discrimination that targets certain ethnic groups is morally appropriate, there cannot be shock that any ethnicity might become the target.

It’s not my intent to pick on Megan McArdle, but she is representative of the establishment political/media culture that has a close relationship with prestige universities. When talking to a leftie friend who was shocked to find out how radical universities had become with their celebration of Hamas’ terror, Ms. McArdle responded, “I’ve spent the better part of my career complaining about academia’s leftward drift, and I was also shocked!”

When the Supreme Court ruled this past summer that race-conscious admissions were unconstitutional, and that schools could no longer refuse admittance to qualified Asian and white applicants simply because of their race, Columbia University’s President spoke for much of academia when he said, “It feels tragic.”

Those who feel it is “tragic” that they cannot proudly and openly discriminate against Asians cannot be expected to offer much intellectual opposition to Jew-hatred on their campuses.

But are colleges really promoting hatred of whites? Yes they are. Enthusiastically. From coast to coast. There are numerous examples, but here is just one, “The Problem of Whiteness,” which has been taught at many elite universities for years, including the University of Chicago and Wisconsin-Madison. (“University stands by ‘Problem of Whiteness’ course” [CNN – 12/23/2016])

The course is as nasty and hateful as it sounds.

“The Problem of Whiteness is as natural as breathing air, some say” [Digital Journal – 7/03/2023]

By 2004, according to The Washington Post, at least 30 institutions in the United States, including Princeton University and the University of California at Los Angeles, among others, offered courses in whiteness studies.

You probably won’t be shocked to learn that “White studies” don’t exactly celebrate the subject in the way that “Black studies” or “Women’s studies” do.

So what is so different about White studies, you may ask? Social critic David Horowitz told The Washington Post in 2013, “Black studies celebrates blackness, Chicano studies celebrates Chicanos, women’s studies celebrates women and white studies attacks white people as evil.”

And of course, the simple act of being white makes one a white supremacist. That is being taught on our campuses.

Lee Bebout of Arizona State University, says, “White supremacy makes it so that white people can’t see the world they have created. It’s a culture so pervasive that living in it, subscribing to it, and upholding it feel as natural to most Americans as breathing air.”

Racial hatred has been legitimized on campus for quite some time, but once legitimized, it’s hard to keep it isolated and contained against the intended target.

How upside down is academia’s view of racism. According to a professor at the University of Loyola Marymount, colorblindness itself is “structurally racist.” Those of us who live out Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream that we should judge a person by the content of his character and not by the color of his skin are now “structural racists.”

Color-Blindness Perpetuates Structural Racism [Forbes – 9/28/2022]

Researchers of the study pointed to the fact that color-blind approaches are also harmful. Furthermore, the willful avoidance of appreciating diversity and not looking at racial disparities only reinforces white comfort, power, and privilege…

I’ll close with some thoughts from Bobby Burack at Outkick, who points out that as abhorrent as the hatred is on American college campuses, it is good that it is out in the open for all to see.

“Ivy League Is Paving The Road to Hell” [Bobby Burack – Outkick – 10/19/2023]

Economist Thomas Sowell once said, “The road to hell is paved with Ivy League degrees.” I believe him. I’ve always believed that. Now, the rest of the country might believe him too.
A sense of evil has disseminated across elite campuses since October 7, the day Hamas organized a coordinated offensive on southern Israel by massacring 260 civilians at a music festival.
Hamas presented us with the worst of humanity — the slaughtering of the innocent, the abduction of women, and the beheading of babies. Yet various student bodies responded to the acts of terrorism by supporting them.
Though abhorrent to see elite students back Hamas, there’s a profound silver lining in their pro-terrorist activism: they’ve unwittingly unmasked themselves.

Indeed, the institutional racial hatred at elite universities has been fully unmasked, but it is an evil that has been there for a long time.

Yes, but most people don't pay much attention. If they have kids in school, or are in the business of academia, or are news junkies, they might have some knowledge. Beyond that, universities are invisible. Nobody pays any attention.

But recently, the hate-filled universities have become newsworthy because of their vocal pro-terrorist positions and the refusal of some on the right to help them bury the coverage (the "dox truck" at Harvard is more valuable as a tool to force coverage than it is as a tool to harm the people its doxing). Most people have no clue and have just been working assumptions about how colleges work.

Or whites. Or Latinos. Or Blacks. Or whatever group. Right now, the conditions aren't good for them to turn this process on blacks or Latinos, for example, but that doesn't mean they *couldn't.*

When racial hatred is your basis, the particular target is the secondary consideration (unless you're in the target group, of course). It could be anyone and, over time, will be everyone.

My alma mater had a search for a new president a few years ago. They made it very clear at the beginning of the search that they were ashamed that every prior president had been a white, straight (assumedly), male, and they were going to fix that. (They hired a white lesbian.)

I got banned from the college discussion board for observing that I assumed that any white male applying for the job would have the decency to at least pretend to be homosexual.

70 "Today’s Republicans, as well as Christian nationalism, are a greater threat to the United States than the Hamas terrorist organization"

It is not just "academia", it is all the federal agencies, and many of the state agencies. Add in most of media (all major networks and most social media giants) and we see the oligarchs (that we bailed out repeatedly) have been at war with individual liberty (and sovereignty) for decades. They use NGOs and foundations to magically escape government intervention (and taxes).

The color revolutions run by CIA/FBI are now targeting the "Great Satan" (Christian America) openly and with little restraint.

Emerson today released a poll showing Cameron (R) leading Beshear (D-inc) for KY Gov. Emerson's last poll had Beshear +12, IIRC.

This prolly 2 good 2 b twue, but it would certainly send shockwaves through the political world if Beshear loses.

The Emerson poll today is the only poll I've seen that even shows Cameron CLOSE, let alone winning.

Take a mediocre kid, likely from a middle class background at best, put him or her in a hypercompetitive academic environment, often with kids who have ample resources and a background involving multigenerational success, the mediocre kid is never going to fit in socially and isn't remotely academically prepared. Which is why education has been working tirelessly for many years to make academics a joke and hand out grades like candy. You can't have "equitable" outcomes in a world that has standards.

156 It comes from "resentment against achievement." The Left has successfully sold (to the stupid) the idea that success is a zero-sum game, meaning that if person A is successful, it means person B cannot be. Person A, in effect, stole person B's success.

The Jews have been pretty successful in our society, because they value education and hard work. They're leading figures in business, finance, entertainment, etc. So it's pretty natural that those who are not successful believe the Jews stole their success, and the unsuccessful only have one recourse: hatred that cannot be quenched or mollified.

In one of his many insane dystopian stories, Philip K Dick described a world where the universities were not closed, but rather isolated. It wasn't the point of the story - it just a world-building side note.

The universities were walled off. Anyone who wanted to go to a university could do so, but the gates were one-way. They were lobster traps. You could go into the university and be as radical as you want, but if you try to leave then soldiers gun you down. Providing any aid to the universities was illegal but some people, of course, lobbed food and medicine and whatnot over the walls or through tunnels anyway.

All universities became roach motels.

You're missing the change in cultures in these institutions. When they admitted a combination of people with decent academic credentials (based on real secondary education, not what we have now) and rich kids, you can do that kind of coasting. You shouldn't but you can. And everything will more or less work out in the wash. You change up who's admitted and you're just passing along people who can't cut it. And that'll be just as true in the corporate world afterward. There isn't some great untapped reservoir of brown kids who could work at white show law firms, investment banks etc. and succeed there if only they'd just take advantage of scholarships.

This isn't about settlements or some other somewhat controversial policy, this is about a potential genocide. And yea, that's slightly different. And obviously it is not confined to just Israel.

We've never had a government that is so openly hostile to Jews and those who are on the side of our modern society. It's well beyond Jews, they are just at the tip of the spear.

He was, very smart. He kept a lot for himself, but he also distributed most of the lands (and their attendant wealth) to his most loyal supporters, who became the backbone of his, and his daughter Elizabeth's power.

an anecdote from the time I learned when I had the good fortune to tour the Tower of London once; this was where the Royal Mint was located, and Henry had all the silver he'd confiscated from them sent there, to be turned into coinage. The Royal Mint spent the next 12 years (!!!), day and night, melting down the hoard of silver and turning it into new coinage. That was Henry's wealth, and it helped bring about the Golden Age under Elizabeth 1.

They do not want civilians to leave; they want to use them as human shields and kill anyone who attempts to leave.

After leaving Sidley & Austin in 1993, Mrs. Obama worked for the city of Chicago’s Department of Planning and later the national service organization Public Allies.

Mrs. Obama accepted the position of Associate Dean of Students at the University of Chicago in 1996, where she also served as director of the University Community Student Center. In 2002, she became the University of Chicago Hospital’s Director of Community Affairs, and was promoted to Vice President of External Affairs and Community Relations in 2005.

Barristers are the ones who appear in court arguing the case; and solicitors advise the client outside the court. When a UK cop show has a lawyer with a suspect being questioned, that's the solicitor.

In Canada we have single lawyers for a client, like yours, so they're called "Barrister & Solicitor" on their business cards etc. [No wigs but wear the black robe with the ancient collar at criminal cases; I don't think so for civil trials although I might be mistaken about that.]
