J.D. Vance | The Universities are the Enemy

[robosmith]

Vance not only wants to destroy  universities, but the Republic itself. Doesn't understand that tech is what makes America GREAT.

Meh - sure why not. I mean you're just making crap up anyway so might as well.

Whoa there sunshine, you didn't invite us to your coming out party.

They want a mob-run state like Russia with a big boss at the top that doesn't allow dissent. And the online trolls and witless idi0ts pretend to believe in freedom as they work to implement it

Vance’s words: “We need to aggressively attack the universities in this country.”

His words, not mine.

They will be happy when we are back to the 1950s and all problems are papered over, "woke" viewpoints are disallowed and product boycotts are illegal.

The War on Knowledge.  It's good politics: educated people don't like us so let's reduce our levels of education.

Nothing was happier than Medieval England, with its wizards and peasants...

Not war on knowledge Mike and you know it. Its a war for truth and a war against woke little freaks who hate America. 

Must you always be so full o' sh1t?

Poorly put, but I agree with the sentiment. Universities have been veering away from truth and fact into 'interpreting' truth and facts in the light of 'colonialism' and 'racism'. It's designed to teach students to hate their country, capitalism, and each other as much as their professors do.

Let me translate that for you: 

“The oil companies who have funded the GOP hate the scientific research which overwhelmingly proves that petroleum use is causing climate change, and we need to ATTACK that or else they’ll fund some other politician.”

As opposed to now, when non-woke viewpoints are disallowed and Jews are harassed on campus for their presumed connection to Israel?

Do you know that in the US some medical schools are reducing the requirements for nonwhite students to enter, and then dumbing down the curriculum so more of them can pass? Not just medical schools either. There's a movement to dumb things down across the board because too many black students, admitted with very low SAT scores, are failing and dropping out. I'd call that 'reducing the leels of education'. I'd also call replacing great European writers and philosophers with ones from Africa because who wants to hear from dead white males constitutes a war on knowledge.

Thats completely false.  Specifically; they do not give black students different tests or grade them differently. It just isn’t true.

More like ordinary people can only laugh at 'educated' people who can't describe what a man is and what a woman is, can't say for sure if calling for the death of Jews is wrong, and do their best to denigrate their country and its history at every opportunity while pretending racism is worse today than in the days of slavery.

[impartialobserver]

The conservative dislike of academia is nothing new. Been happening for hundreds of years. Nothing said on this forum or this thread will change that. When I was attending undergraduate.. the same thing was said. Them darn liberals are brainwashing our poor kids.. and then I laugh

No, but when little racists f*ckheads run around and claim that black doctors didn’t have to take tests that were as difficult as the tests given to white doctors, it certainly proves that racism is alive and well in the USA.   
 

And when those same racist f*ckheads run around claiming that truthfully teaching students about the brutality of slavery and racism which occurred in history of our country is somehow bad, it also proves that racism is alive and well in the USA.

Racists are afraid of the ACTUAL TRUTH. I am not. What is true is true.  Black people were enslaved and it was horribly brutal. And the segregation which followed was pure cruelty and nothing but pure cruelty.

You know, this speech decreed the use of skin color in discrimination.  Should we assume you support discriminating based on race?

Vance told people to "wake up" to the dangers of democracy because its "ineffectual" at achieving right wing hegemony.

Typical of you right wing extremists to believe ONLY your answers matter. 🤮

'colonialism' and 'racism' are based on a lot of really bad assumptions that justify the oppression of the weak to serve the dominant ethnic group.

Truth is the enemy. The reality is. Where is the limit? Why?

They just give them a bigger curve and preferential treatment. Then the curriculum is dumbed down because a lot of those kids they are letting in can't do the work and would flunk out if they didn't make it easier. Then even the smart kids are ill prepared due to not getting the training they should of received because, gosh we absolutely have to have more black doctors no matter what.
