Contrary to popular conservative opinion, I don’t want this college chaos to end anytime soon. I want it to increase and metastasize and continue right up until these entitled, ugly, mutated communist jerks totally alienate every normal American. It’s already happening. The frat boys have turned. The normals are turning. At one of these colleges, you had the theater major graduation ceremony invaded by Palesimpians and the parents began chanting, “USA! USA!” Will this and the administrations’ feeble response help flush these institutions’ bloated reputations down the crapper? Yes, please! So, keep it up, communist dipwads. I’m loving this.
This is definitely one of those “Can you both lose?” situations. We have left-wing faculty and administrators at the keffiyeh-clad throats of communist students on blue campuses in mostly blue cities in blue states, and all I can say is I hope they both lose. They are certainly losing the respect of normal people. There was a time when these colleges were prestigious organizations whose diplomas meant something. They mean something now, too – a warning: “Caution – The bearer is a whiny snowflake with delusions of competence.”
I’m biased since I want to destroy so-called elite academia as currently constituted. It has become a narrow gate within our culture that the left’s gatekeepers are using by curating admissions to create the ruling class of the future. DEI is part of the agenda. “Diversity” means “People we think will make good communist cadre.” If you’re a straight white guy who identifies as a guy, you’re not getting into one of these colleges. You’re just not. A straight white dude has about as much chance as a straight Asian dude, which is to say, “Not much.” That’s not who the left wants as the ruling class of the future – too left-averse as a whole. And they have succeeded in managing campus demography. Look at the protesters. It’s a diverse collection of SSRI-ridden neurotic females and goofy femboys.
The colleges have stopped working for the majority of Americans. We’re not invited. And people are realizing that. The people excluded from elite academia are realizing that and they will stop respecting and supporting it. What do we care about Harvard and Yale? Our kids will never get in. The Ivies are going to find that they are running out of friends on the right side of the aisle, and it’s about time.
The students themselves are hardly bringing credit on their alma maters. I love the hilarious antics of these twits, from demanding that they are being genocided if they aren’t sent DoorDash to law students demanding A-grades because they are too traumatized by cops putting some of their chubby comrades into headlocks that they can’t take exams. Please, set your reputation on fire!
The administrations can’t handle it because the leftists running these institutions are themselves leftist jokes. We’ve seen the plagiarism scandals – imagine being so ridiculous you can’t even fake your own woke nonsense and have to cut-and-paste it. We’ve also seen the allegedly elite institutions handling these kids with kid gloves – unlike Texas and the red states where the cops take out the trash. The administrators are themselves cultural trust fund babies – they didn’t build these institutions and are not competent to manage them. They inherited them simply because they had the right credentials and not because they had any actual talent. Now they’re blowing it.
That’s terrific. Their feckless incompetence undermines the very reason the institutions wield power – residual respect from when academia graduated students who could do important jobs in society. If you went to Harvard, you were probably a pretty smart kid who could probably be taught to do whatever job the big law firm or Goldman Sachs or the government needed doing. But that’s not true now. A lot of these diversity admittees can’t cut it and have no skill set other than endlessly complaining about how they are oppressed. The fact a lot of them want to murder all the Jews is likewise troubling. These gibbering halfwits aren’t the leaders of the future. They’re morons. They’re stupid, and they’re boring, but most of them are very, very ugly, so on the plus side, they’re unlikely to reproduce.
Compare and contrast these pretentious Gaza geeks with the healthy, happy, and attractive young people opposing them, mostly at red-state colleges. Who the hell would want to be on the side of the damn communists? I want to be on the side with the guys with kegs. Further, these schools are going to overtake the Ivy League as they swoop up the talent the alleged elite school discriminates against. You’re not getting admitted into the College State because you’re some weird-identifying creep whose essay is full of tales of high school activism. You’re getting in because you’ve got pretty good grades and you can probably do the work, and employers know that you can probably function in the real world. But who the hell wants to hire one of these Harvard idiots? All you will get is internal strife, excuses for shoddy work, endless demands, and probably a lawsuit.
It will take them a while to totally destroy their reputations, but their reputations are going down. After all, at some point, law firms, Wall Street, and giant corporations have to succeed at what they do. They’ve got a bottom line to consider, and somebody who demands every Friday off for mental health just isn’t going to cut it. But that’s what these entitled twits will do. They will try to bring their college nonsense into the real world. So far, the real world has accommodated them somewhat – HR departments are full of these idiots – but at some point, the people who actually want to succeed at their enterprise are going to have to hire people who can make them successful.
Yes, allegedly elite schools, please destroy your value proposition. Also, be sure to further alienate conservatives, who will be sure to use their political power against you in return. There was one time when you could pretend to be above politics, and conservatives would keep funding you, but now a conservative pol is going to have to explain to his own people why he’s giving money to a bunch of people who hate us and want to kill all the Jews. And he’s not going to want to have to explain that. Say “Goodbye” to funding and “Hello” to a lot of onerous new regulations designed to protect Republican voters from leftist discrimination and abuse.
I make no secret that I want to destroy academia as currently constituted. It’s a suppurating abscess on the buttocks of American society. I am kind of sad that I’m not going to get to do it myself. Academia is already doing it to itself.
Well, I guess I’m good as long as it gets done.
