Excerpt from Dr. Weinstein's testimony:
Oppression Disguised as Equity
Testimony of Bret S. Weinstein
United States House of Representatives
May 22, 2018
Tomorrow is the one year anniversary of the day that 50 Evergreen students--students that I had never met--disrupted my class, accusing me of racism and demanding my resignation. I tried to reason with them. I felt no fear because I knew that, whatever my failings might be, bigotry was not among them.
At that moment. I felt sure I could reach these students. I also felt a moral obligation to try. Racism, which squanders human potential, and erodes human dignity, offends me. I am also well versed in the evolutionary logic that makes racism durable. I should have had no trouble establishing common ground.
Their response surprised me, and it would take months for me to fully understand what had happened. The protestors had no apparent interest in the very dialog they seemed to invite. I was even more surprised by the protestor's fervor in shouting down my actual students--some of whom had known me for years. The cruelty and derision reserved for students of color who spoke in my defense was particularly chilling.
If not discussion, what did they want? I was one of Evergreen's most popular professors. I had Evergreen's version of tenure. Did they really think they could force my resignation based on a meritless accusation?
They did think that. And they were right. What I had not counted on was their alliance with Evergreen's new president.
Though the protestors openly humiliated him, the president of the college partnered with the mob in private, handing them concession after concession. We know this because the rioters filmed everything and proudly uploaded it. In one particularly telling video, President Bridges calmly discusses with the leaders of the protest a demand to target STEM faculty based on the empty assertion that scientists are particularly prone to bias. In that same video the president speaks of his plan for those who resist the new order: "Bring 'em in. Train 'em. And if they don't get it, sanction 'em." He invites his partners to hold him to it.
On the second day of unrest, the police chief called me. Rioters were stopping traffic and searching for someone, car to car. The chief believed it was me. She was worried for my safety and helpless to protect me as the president had ordered her force to "stand down." What would have transpired if the rioters had found me? I still don't know, and I strongly suspect they don't either.
The protest at my class did not emerge out of the blue in May, 2017. One year earlier I stood up and spoke in opposition to a dangerous proposal, one that threatened to establish a racial hierarchy amongst faculty.
To those who have not faced something similar, this likely sounds hyperbolic. But one can now advance such policies, and almost certainly succeed in passing them, if they are properly draped in weaponized terminology. "Equity", for example, has taken on special properties. If a person opposes an "equity" proposal, those advancing the proposal are secure in asserting that their opponent is motivated by opposition to racial equity itself: In other words, that they are racist.
My opposition to that first "equity" proposal was voiced to my colleagues, with no students present. Demands for my resignation one year later, were not the result of organic student confusion. They were payback for violating a de facto code of faculty conduct in which one's right to speak is now dictated by adherence to an ascendant orthodoxy in which one's race, gender and sexual orientation are paramount. The students were on a mission. They were unwitting tools of a witting movement.
This committee should take my tale as cautionary. Is there a free speech crisis on college campuses? One can certainly make that argument, but that portrayal is at least as misleading as it is informative. What is occurring on college campuses is about power and control--speech is impeded as a last resort, used when people fail to self-censor in response to a threat of crippling stigma and the destruction of their capacity to earn.

In normal countries these students would be expelled.Period.
marko mojsilovic they won't risk it in normal countries...
It's only exclusive to America, and evergreen incident may be induced by gang oriented groups.
Think about it... WHO benefits in chaos and disorder? The gangs, mafia, triads, and crime syndicates.
The only other parties that benefit is foreign opposition that would like to see this country fail.
In China they would have had citizen privileges revoked. No bus pass, no flying on planes.
Heck, in an argentinian highschool a girl went without a bra and she got sanctioned. The hell broke loose from that point on. Just from sanctioning a student that broke the dressing code in such way.
Terrible,in today's time there is too much collages for people who are not qualified for it.-and that trend is going around the world,no matter the race or ethnicity ...But I still find hard to fathom that "students" can behave like that!
Its not the country, evergreen college is just treated "specially" all the time
Wanted him to resign.
Made him famous instead

Unfortunately, he was right. This unrest is not random. It has started in the universities, now it has spread.
I'm wondering if this extreme form of ... whateverthefuckthisis ... is yet another thing started by a very complex Russian troll campaign. Like : lets fuck up their universities? It is possible some seeds did come from there, but also possible people are quite capable of coming up with BS all by themselves.

It's sad because Dr. Jordan Peterson warned us of the same exact thing. If only he and his wife hadn't gotten sick, maybe we would have more of his wisdom during a time like this. God knows we need it more than ever.
@@monniger93 is that what you think? Thats funny, because an actual russian\kgb defector told us this EXACT thing was going to happen and that we needed to start countering it then in order to be back to normal around now.... no one listened.

@Hot Knib Knabs when you say Marxism was shove down your throat, you mean in a classroom setting with professors with an agenda ?
Evergreen is almost bankrupt, seems parents are not sending there children there.
I can't imagine why...
ha ha ha

Good! You reap what you sow! Now they’ve got nothing!
I've heard employers rip up resumes that have evergreen graduate attached to it. I wouldn't send my child to a college that would make them less employable than a high school dropout. What a waste of hard earned money that would be.
Ideologically attacking this man was the biggest mistake they could have made.
Thank you for your courage Dr. Weinstein.
Whats ironic this man is a liberal and the alt-left want to destroy him.
Ditto for Peterson.
The Next Chapter: "he...still wants safe spaces" - Then you weren't listening to what Weinstein said, and just honed in when you heard the proper buzzwords. He explained that "safe spaces" are incompatible with scientific inquiry, and that his own definition of *safety* (the freedom to take chances) is the exact opposite of the social justice cult's. At least, he was attempting to say so before the chairman woke up from his nap and interrupted with some prefab red/blue partisan hackery.
sh241 "have have" means you missed some thinking somewhere. This is an example of what's wrong when you think it through and see it for what it is. School can't teach lies so there's space for the truth to be crushed--is that what you want?

That college lost an amazing professor. Their loss.
i found out about him thinking he was harveys brother. I started with a negative biais on him and he is a few weeks later one of the public speakers i have the most respect for.

he's way too genius for all of this
I love his articulation. That's the power of using the best word. Nailed it. :)
@@rachelshelley4779 nothing nailed if he can't reach the masses.
How to reach all people of All Nations? They don't because their fancy words contain them to certain groups of the educated in English people.
First time I've heard Bret Weinstein's address to the House. His articulation of what happened, and of what is at stake, is unsurprisingly eloquent for anyone who has heard him before and is an admirer of thoughtful and compelling speech. But his concision here is almost breathtaking. A powerful and courageous stand that I needed to see. Thank you, Bret.
“Teach our children how to think not what to think” absolutely right.
My sister
(Ah - I gagged)
Is in college
I have started messaging her videos like this
It's patronizing to say "teach them how to think" because if there in a college they should know "how to think"
@@chronicsnail6675 you're right, by the time college age arrives a person "should" know at least a little on "how" to think, meaning the ability to gathering varying, differing, and contrary point of views and being able to discern a productive and moral perspective. ... However judging from what transpired on this campus, the evidence would suggest that is not the case.
@@a.b1266 agreed
Currently that is the rule in thumb for the horrid teachings of english schools and maori schools in nz....I encountered them Again in my life when I decided to learn a new language and the teacher didnt care how I pronounced the words, it did not matter to the school of b/s with the form of speaking and spoken word... this form of teaching is loaded with nothing but empty words....these teacher tellers that tell tales and tell nothing , they are just collecting your data of , work done, work completed.
I heard the story of what happened in Evergreen, here in France, and I'm shocked, these "students" are totally insane. Bret Weinstein is a brave man.
Not only the students, check evergreen on google with an american vpn (yeah google absolutely DOES censor results in the US): google will push results that say that bret is a racist and the students were victims of white supremacy. It cannot be a coincidence, when the vast majority of the search results presented are false, it means there is a human being willingly manipulating search results to both push racist anti whlte propaganda and hide the truth. It's chilling or as you say in French "ça donne des frissons".
Edit: corrected to fix confusion. I initially wrote "you'll learn that Bret is indeed a racist" which conveyed the opposite meaning of what I was trying to say and brought a lot of confusion.
Lionel X I’m confused what do you mean
@@monticks9292 Google changes the results drastically when you're in the US. The search results in the US are completely manipulated by google. For instance if you search "rotavirus vaccine forbidden in europe because it kills children" the only results you'll find will say this is a conspiracy theory and its not: the rotavirus vaccine TRULY was forbidden after it was proven to kill toddlers.
Similarly, when searching for Bret Weinstein and evergreen on google in the US, all the search results will say Bret is a white supremacist.
It ended up being so bad, I now use duckduckgo search engine because it's too obvious google tries to shape reality in the US.
@J O K E R WTF? No
Lol. When I saw what was going on I thought it was like the French revolution mob mentality.
Who else is here after watching the Joe Rogan podcast?
I was following it at the time.
He went on right after this happened and then he went on again two days ago. The first podcast was better IMO
That's how I ended up at this video.
Yep
It's 15 minutes, if you want the short version.
Just think about what Jordan Pederson went through... He warned all of us.
@WalterRamjet HeroOfOurNation huh? You think this is a poor whites problem? because.... that doesnt make a lot of sense.
@@ez_company9325 See he never said anything about skin color you are apart of the problem
@@ez_company9325 oh nice racism rigth there sir ;)
@@ez_company9325 way to be an ideologue
Yes. Jordan Peterson did warn us.
A note to Dr Weinstein:
To argue with a group of persons who have renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.
He admitted it took him a couple of months to wrap his head around that fact.
Noo, those kids are clueless donkeys and were way out of line. FBI should be investing this.
I like it !!
I swear I saw an episode of House where he did this! Lol
I love that! Well said, chap..
"The job of an educator is to teach you how to think, not what to think." What a powerful statement
AND YOU CANT TEACH STUPID
It would be if it hadn't been said a thousand times for 100's of years.
i am going to college and this is what am i going into? looks like college is F up
@@14KroshTV Piece of advice for you...do what with it what you will. Unless you are going into something you are truly passionate about, or something you KNOW is going to give you a career and make you money, then I would strongly suggest an alternative route.....trade school. If you don't know what you want to do you could end up amassing tens of thousands of dollars of debt needlessly with no return for your efforts. There are many degrees that are completely useless and most of them are in the humanities/liberal arts realm. Job satisfaction is nice, but being able to feed yourself, put a roof over your head and clothes on your back is pretty cool too....
You're GOING to run into professors who want you to write papers with views they agree with....even if you don't. They will mark/grade them accordingly. You'll have to deal with people who believe their's is the only possible opinion or way of thinking and will be "offended" if you don't share their views. Books are outrageously expensive and frankly you'll be required to take courses that have NOTHING what so ever to do with what you want to study. But you'll hear your academic "adviser" say things like "college is a marathon, not a sprint" etc..... They say that because the longer you are enrolled, the more money that school gets. You'll hear about "enrichment" courses....yeah, they aren't free either and the only ones getting "enriched" $$$ is the school. But again, if you're passionate about literature or poetry then go for it....just realize unless you get published you're probably going to end up teaching or working in some other field. If you have the skills, go for engineering, computer science, accounting, business or something like that. People who major in "gender studies" or "lesbian dance theory" end up working at Starbucks....but hey, they have decent health insurance and they don't care if you have tattoos so you'll have that going for you. LOL
Its sad that it has gotten to a point, where that even needs to be stated.
End of June 2020 checking in, I can't believe how fast this spun out of control.
It's been coming to a head for some time. The post-modern nihilistic concepts of social power peddled by the likes of Derrida and Foucault have been around since the 1960's. They're nasty people. Foucault was one of the signatories in the 1970's to the French Parliament to lower the age of consent so that children could 'choose' to have sex.
Mid July 2020 checking in, it's still spiraling, and looks like it won't stop until the entire country is disbanded.
M Novalic same here, man. I too supported the cringy old Communist known as Bernie. I thought I was so “educated” until I took the red pill. I was awaken by the insanity of the left and had to rewire my brain from all the poisonings I had indulged in by re-educating myself by getting to the truth. I don’t think Trump is the best candidate for the job but should lay the foundation for rebuilding our institutions
M Novalic..hi!! You're not the only one who feels this way..check out the #walkaway movement. It's a sane, rational response to the dangerous thought police on the far left (& others on the left who are bullied into silence if they DARE to question the leftist agenda). I walked away after being a Democrat my entire life. I feel sad about that. I was taught to question authority & be a critical thinker & that's come in handy given the turn-about we're experiencing now. I have found much more wiggle room on the right than I ever imagined possible!! I bought into the idea that the right was just a bunch of old, white, racist men that you weren't allowed to disagree with. Patently FALSE!! Check out the #walkaway movement....you will find a diverse group of reasonable, rational TRUE patriots who are fed up with the "woke" left. Good Luck!! Peace & Love!!!!
Watch what Yuri Bezmenov (ex-KGM agent that defected to the West) was saying with chilling accuracy decades ago. Search for cultural subversion and his name here on YT. It’s going to be an eye-opener!
one of the most eloquent and valid speeches I've heard in a long long time. Great Guy! As is his brother!
His brother is a joke.
I'm not sure about his brother Eric-I tried to get some kind of grasp on his Geometric Unity theory but am still being knocked all over the shop by his 14 Dimensions of time and space, he a baaad man!
Calling that place a “college” is a joke in its self!
People like Weinstein and Heying and their ilk are not a joke, and some of the freer educational concepts there were no joke. Neither were/are many of the more serious students of ES or the central importance of their education and their lives. This debacle screwed up a good thing.
*To say the idea ESC is a joke is to say Brett was fighting for nothing, but as you can imagine he's not the fool. He fought for* the only possibility this school had and which he believed could be saved - alas, too few people who knew better failed to stand with him.
College as it is has become a sick joke.
"The job of an educator is to teach you how to think, not what to think"
🙌🙌🙌
Amen...we would all be seeking truth, not following pre- packaged ideologies .
Ah the quote of the video, I knew someone would post it.
Mind you, if you stop to think about it, teaching people HOW to think is almost more dangerous than teaching them what to think. Teaching someone how to think is also referred to as mind control. When kids are taught WHAT to think you at least leave the door open for them to change their minds, seeing in this case you need to teach them about both sides of the argument to begin with, even if is it in a biased manner. We should just be teaching people to think.
@@minimoulah The act of thinking comes with risks. Most, if not all, revolutions came with scrutiny, whether it was Einstein or Steven Hawking. They took the risk of others believing they were crazy. This is why the freedom to think on your own is so important. Teaching people what to think robs them of their ability to think freely and can obstruct potential revolutionary ideas. Also, I would say that having a change in opinion is more likely to happen if you think for yourself rather than what another person tells you to believe.
@@skeletor4487 No it doesnt. I think therefor I am. We dont need to teach children how to behave, it was encoded in us. Humans are not inherently evil, a child needs to learn how to lie because instinctively it tells the truth. Most of what you think you know to be true is probably a lie or misleading.
I relisten to this every now and then.
He hits so many nails on so many heads it's insane. Insane that this is necessary.

@@bekdicht8193 When one think about, this is exactly like the Nietszche quote "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster." It's the human psyche.
Black supremacists particularly hate white jews.
Close down the college, tell the students they won and send 'em all home to seek out different colleges. They'll learn, they're not the boss, and there's no instant gratification here, or anywhere else. Whining, intimidation, threat of violence and disruption should never be acceptable, anywhere, especially on a college campus
David Southwell let the free market work itself out. It’s a private college and their admissions are way way way down as a result of this Charlie Foxtrot
Andrew Brinkman, nope. Evergreen is a state college, not private, per this video and the New York Times.
It's in Olympia, Washington, if you want to check further.
Andrew Brinkman, ....and I hope you don't really believe in the "let the free market work itself out" concept. In a world of greedy people, sociopaths, bigots, sexists, etc., just how would that work?
Besides, even if it did in the long run, it would cost innocent people their jobs or careers until it worked itself out.
You didn't listen to Mr. Weinstein - he said only one collage , Chicago was open to ideas .
So with your logic , the Chicago collage would be the only one open , now that I think about it , I entertain the idea for a moment ;)
The bullies became stars. Look at vice CNN ect coverage: Bret is racist and the students are heroes. Makes me sick to my stomach. If only all people voting democrat could see this, america would instantly stop being divided.
What an awesome, brave man. I watch his podcast regularly.
If he was teaching at my technical university in Delft (in the Netherlands) he would get cheered at every time he enters class!
The babies are running the daycare. Truly terrifying.
The username checks out.

@@makemoneychannel924 Basically, every year the school has a voluntary day where colored people don't go to the campus in an effort to show their importance in society. The year in question, it was decided that white people would not attend campus instead, however, the white free day was forced by the dean of the school. Bret being intelligent (and to a lesser extent Jewish) saw where this was going and sent an e-mail saying that having a white free day was offensive and unproductive. When people read that e-mail, they began calling him a racist. He was called racist for disagreeing with them. What is worse is that a faculty member called him racist and when he tried to stick up for himself, the faculty told him he could not and he should just get used to being called a racist.

@@ezrc9294 Me too, but more recently
@@ezrc9294 The dems are no longer liberal or leftist. They are corporate centrists that trick people into following them by pretending to support progressive social issues. You're confusing the political party with the political ideology.
My only criticism is that Dr. Weinstein used words and sentences too complex for our poor politicians to understand.
SeleckPlays it’s the curse of intelligence, not a prerequisite for politicians 🌞
Most of the ones he's speaking to behind that camera are not listening.
Perhaps. Definitely too complex for students to understand...
You're the first person I've heard bring this point to light. I feel that he was grossly misunderstood, and it caused a mob behavior based on the cascade effect. If you listen to his supporters they were well spoken, level headed students. If you listened to the opposers they weren't saying anything substantial in presenting their argument. Sad that education is the root of the problem. A professor trying to become an activist needs to become a better orator, and opposers of the professor needed to not jump the gun and assume he was a racist.
Robin WC that is why you don’t argue with stupid....
The elephant in the room: Society is collapsing.
No society is not collapsing it’s independent thought that is collapsing because of indoctrination by left wing self hating teachers. Like he said give the students the tools to make informed decisions and teach them how to think. and not tell them what to think. It’s up to the governor’s to fire teachers that try and indoctrinate their students.
It's okay, we're on the way to make the planet uninhabitable.
@@kevindismore1349 Governors can fire teachers at privately funded educational facilities now. That's effin' scary, cuz it's one of the first things to happen when societies collapse.

Where I study in Europe, if some spoiled students pulled this kind of shit they would be terminated in a week and sent home. America is one of the few places where this type of blatant disregard for authority, rules, respect and common sense is possible.
Where do you study? Europe is a continent made up of many different countries and cultures.
@@Claire-tn4xp I currently study in Hungary, have multiple friends that study in Germany, Poland, Spain, France, Austria and Italy and they all say the same. My generalization of Europe was made for the sake of simplifying my point, I am aware that the same wouldn't stand in every university, but in general I would say my statement is accurate.
@@PellosMaxhthc I'm glad to hear it wouldn't be tolerated
@@Claire-tn4xp There was a case here in Hungary a year ago where a bunch of foreign students were refusing to comply with quarantine rules inside and outside of University premises, their student status was terminated and they were deported in a matter of 2-3 weeks, but take this with a grain of salt as Hungary is a very conservative country which makes the above result much more likely to occur here than in other more liberal countries like Germany. Also, Universities in general are dominated by liberals as compared to conservatives (just like the USA), with the clear difference being the amount of shit that they are willing to take from students here, they are pretty strict when it comes to regulations.
@@Claire-tn4xp As a last point, I would also add that universities in Europe don't seem to be so concerned with political matters as much as universities in the USA do. As a matter of fact I would go even as far as to say that they prefer to avoid them, I've seen it happen multiple times here.
Feelings have become more important than reality.
Thats why they want communism, bring everyone down
We were always told to keep a level head, while understanding feelings.
It is truly important to prioritize balance of both mind and heart, otherwise you get *THIS* kind of chaos.
They are acting like your pfp.
It's a tool being used by those who understand that "feelings" have absolutely no baring on what they plan to do once they are in control. As long as they have useful idiots who are willing to close their minds and walk blindly, feelings is all they really need because they say that "logic" is a tool of evil. No joke.
Reality is subjective. They are gainst facts! They are trying to top facts with feelings! That is disturbing!
Could u imagine if whites said
“We want a no blacks day, just for
Nostalgia.”
My thoughts exactly. It's like they keep saying bkacks can have all black proms, and graduations etc..., but if whites said any if this it would be considered racist, and separatism. I don't see how any of this is ok

This man is what you would typically ascribe to being on the left in terms of a political spectrum, normally. On this issue, he is neither left or right, he is rational, logical, and right in the terms of accuracy rather than ideology. Only people with a truly horrid belief system, would demand that opposition be silenced. I believe myself to be right of center, yet I hold no ill will to those who would oppose me; I only expect that they would contest me based on the merit of mine and their argument(s). That the disagreement I may have with others is centered around a core value or principle that myself and my debater have a varying opinion on. Rousseau wrote in "On the Social Contract", that political parties/ideologies could and inevitably would be hijacked by unscrupulous and self-centered individuals if principle was left untended to. Based on the world I see around me, principle has not just been left untended to; it has been all but abandoned. How can one expect to uphold values without principle as a foundation?
He is on the left, ITS THE LEFT EATING THEIR OWN. its simple.

+rAdhominem It has nothing to do with left or right politics this is dogmatism at it's worst. These people are in the same category as holocaust deniers, flat earthers, and Sandy Hook was an inside job like people. These kids are being brainwashed by dogmatic idealist who likely do not even know how horribly racist they themselves are being. It's that phrase of "Reverse Racism" at it's core. It's toxic. Just like how an anti semite sees Jewish conspiracy around ever corner, dogmatic reverse racist see racism in every action that opposes their own.

+mother nature last time I checked, College Professors are not technically allowed to push their own personal political views onto their students. At least when I went to college. Who Says "Weinstein" isn't one of the honest Professors that uphold this standard? Any professor that uses their position to push petty political agendas should be fired, and it has nothing to do with left or right wing politics either.
As an employer who gets hundreds of applications for an opening, why would I hire an Evergreen graduate over say, Texas Tech, San Diego State or University of Massachusetts and risk getting a problem employee with a disruptive political agenda? Could I get such a person from any other school? Sure! But, I “know” about the chaos at this school. By eliminating applicants from Evergreen, I reduce the probability of a bad choice. It would be a very practical decision.
Evergreen alumni should be worried about the national reputation your alma mater now has that can harm your chances for employment. Are your applications going to be filtered out by HR departments and recruiters? This is a very real possibility.
No mate! It's a dead set certainty! If that University was listed in someone's CV or any other like it, there is zero chance that person would get an interview let alone a job. Besides who's kidding who here.. these kids aren't interested in working.. that's for mugs... they want Communist rule so they can sit back on their fat asses and get paid.. the ones who loved Communist Russia were the ones who did the least..
Alan, I'd also suggest that any student attending Evergreen who didn't ascribe to this nonsense, should immediately transfer to a more sane college, pretty much for exactly the same reasons you describe. As a graduate and job seeker, would you want to be saddled with Evergreen on your resume or would you rather have almost any other far less controversial state college on your resume? I'd think that the answer is pretty self-evident. Run away from Evergreen … as fast as humanly possible.
reduces thier value 200%
Even if the person who went to the school is qualified on paper, do you really want them working with your team? Does your team really want to work with them?
Personally I would never ever hire any student of this school for the last decade and probably into another decade.
If they were to move to another area in the country they may see difficulty finding employment. Unfortunately, Most companies on the west coast are starting to agree with these students. At least for now.

2015 - 2016 Evergreen College Acceptance Rate: 97.9%
That's the definition of "the paper is worth more than the degree"
Lmao. The acceptance % basically means they'll accept anyone, and that's the #1 indicator of a failing college.
There's a reason why Harvard accepts only 5.6% of applicants, and Evergreen accepts 97.9%.
Actually, employers don't differentiate between colleges when screening applicants. If they have a bachelors it's the same across the board. Of course a degree from an Ivy League school would make a difference. I think. I had a better chance at growing horns and a tail vs getting accepted at an IL school.
+Valhalla - you didn't watch the video of the incidents, did you ? Most of them were caucasians !
Most employers *generally* don't differentiate. Generic accredited school 1 vs. 2 might not make a difference, but certain names raise flags.

Boseman 67 - let’s hope. Because Evergreen is not only dead as a college but the graduates who put that school on their resume’ are severely limiting their opportunities. Let’s hope other colleges view these results with wide eyes.
@@KenLeonard I agree.

Why didn't they send SWAT into the college that day? The rioters literally took people HOSTAGE. Held people against their will. They were NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE.

Kill Everyone I think that someone should do something illegal as a citizen since the government will not do anything. If an act if domestic terrorism goes unchecked and unpunished then how disrespectful is that truly to the men and woman who have died over seas fighting terrorism
Exactly. Why didn't they send help to those in Benghazi? Soros, etc.
The police were ordered to stand down and let the rioters do whatever they wanted. Orders that came from the president of the college who later showed that he was on the side of these protesters.
The police should have the duty to enter college campuses where riots like this happen without permission from the corrupt administration of said colleges and to make arrests in cases of blatant civil unrest, like what happened in Berkeley and Evergreen.

I was thinking more 1984's "Two Minutes of Hate", tbh, when watching this. What's worse is that, on an unrelated note, I saw another report along a similar vein that showed a flag whose symbol was two hands shaking, one white, one black, with a red flower above and behind them. Replace that flower with a red capital letter "V" and you've got the flag of INGSOC from George Orwell's book, "1984".
Some years ago, heard concerns from a few university administrators, that a lot of the " social warriors struggle to read at a genuine college level. However those who have good reading skills, have them read Lord of the flies, Animal farm and 1984. Students who struggle to read, read one or maybe two of the three books mentioned.

Professor, you've shown a light on why I no longer identify as a 'liberal' or a 'progressive.' These movements, despite the high rhetoric, have led to their opposites. They are repressive and regressive.
10 years ago the "left" were a lot more rational than the "right", and we'd laugh at fox news and characters like Ann Coulter then... Now it seems the Right is more rational. i totally understand why people are upset about the wage gap, and believe gays should be able to get married, but the left abandoned real issues for made up ones... I hope someday things will find a balance and go back to normal again.
Honestly i dont like Trump, I think he is just an OK president, but you bet your ass ill vote for him in the next election.
Few people actually 'like' Trump. What they 'like' is that he's pure irritation to virtually every entrenched elite, and wannabe elitists, they detest. As long as he continues to fly in the face of all the status quos, as long as the economy continues to improve, and as long as the world wonders what he'll do next, rather than the US constantly wondering what the world is going to throw in our faces next, he'll be 'liked.' Personally, I wouldn't want to spend more than a half-hour with him, which is about 30 minutes longer than what I'd want to spend in the same room with Hillary or Obama.
I'd be careful with the word 'normal.' I think Fox and characters like Coulter performed a necessary function of providing a counter-force trying to pull the political discourse and public policy back to a more rational and pragmatic center. Our public discourse is now little more than adolescent middle-school bullying fueled by magical thinking and omnipotence fueled largely by the left. I believe much of the conservative energy is simply an attempt to bring things back to the center. Calling conservatives racists, Nazis, etc, is the left's attempt to keep the pendulum to the left, far left, but more and more folks are seeing the left's lack of fresh ideas and an increasing reliance on worn out progressive ideas from over five decades ago.
I know, it's very different now. It's like the left at first was one a good path and then before the cliff ends and they accomplished their goals, they just sped up and ran off the edge of the cliff because "YOLO!".
I mean... I'm sure that's not what happened, but it sure looks like it sometimes.

Again, WHY NO ARRESTS?
Mrs. Garcia they were black. Plain and simple. It was a fight they didn’t think was worth fighting at the risk of students and professors by the hands of violent protesters
Because it’s okay to hate white people openly and without any issues coming up as it being wrong to hate people because there skin is white
Neither of those are the answer. The answer is simply that it happened on private property and was condoned by the person charged with operating said property. No injuries, no complainant, no charges.
Private property and no actual laws were broken. Kind of a common sense thing honestly. If you want people arrested then you must not understand law and speech.

There is a loud, ascendant orthodoxy on the left, broad but not deep and there is a concentrated mirror image of that on the far right. Both of these are to be feared. If you speak out from a perspective on the left that does not fit this vocal orthodoxy you are immediately categorised as being 'not one of us' and therefore on the right."
