The same people that have been sending little Eichmanns into classrooms for decades to try to "get" professors saying something they don't like are the very same asshats that queen out about being "cancelled" and cosplay at being "free speech absolutists", LOL.
What conservatives have actually been cancelled, I'd like to know? As far as I know all of them still have a voice, and are platformed more than ever.
I'm just here to say that "We've never seen this level of surveillance" is a weirdly hilarious thing to say.
Not saying this isn't a horrible situation at all, just giggled at that.
It’s just a joke with America at this point, they’re all looking at this same puzzle that solves out to “fascism” but it’s missing a single piece and everyone is collectively pretending they can’t figure it out.
Posting syllabuses online, what a novel concept
What they think these tip lines will give: "My professor is dangerously woke, he used someone's pronouns today and is clearly some kind of terrorist"
What they'll actually get: about 1000 variations of "This course is too hard; I shouldn't have to attend the classes to pass"
Source: I teach at a university and we get a few if these every year; "ghosts" who think that paying a fee magically entitles them to a passing grade regardless of the quality of work they submit.
The panic of people who have never been to school and what they think happens there is so stupid.
Before university I only ever knew a handful of non white kids.
During university I met and studied with tons of friends from every background. It was not the system indoctrinating me, it was putting a bunch of people in a room with a shared interest turns them into friends and suddenly all the stereotypes fall apart.
The truth is when you get to know people of different cultures/orientations then you realize we're all basically the same. We have the same needs and the same wants. We have different languages, clothes, religions, sexualities. None of that really matters though.
It's well known that reality has a left-wing bias.
Exactly. Its not indoctrination. Its becoming an educated adult. Only morons think otherwise. Educated people tend to be liberal. Why? BECAUSE THEY ARE EDUCATED.
educated people tend to be left leaning, idk about the being liberal part
And several states, including Texas, Ohio and Florida
Home of the smartest people in the bottom quarter of the bell curve.
we support small government
Yes, the... bottom
They'd be upset if they were able to understand what that means
