How Globalists Betrayed America
The ‘Defund the Police’ movement demonstrates how stupid people look for simple solutions to simple problems and still manage to mess things up. Considering that many of these individuals are college-degree-bearing intelligentsia, it emphasizes a point that’s been obvious for a while. Given the American education system’s ‘everyone is special, and nobody’s feelings should be hurt’ mantra, a college degree is, at this point, basically a certification that the recipient does NOT have donkey brains.
To make matters worse, these institutions aren’t even training the next generation of Americans – they are educating the next generation of traitors. Look at the recent BLM protests. It wasn’t black people burning their own neighborhoods; it was NYU-educated lawyers. When our institutions are actively attempting to undermine our society, I think it’s fair to ask why we should continue to support them. This goes doubly considering that, given elite educational institutions’ unwillingness to upset anyone (except whites/conservatives/Americans/etc.), they aren’t even providing the value of education anymore.
College Kids are Dumb
But you can’t tell them they’re dumb because then they’ll throw a tantrum and the professor will lose their job. So, instead, they get coddled and passed through the system, “earning” a degree because their helicopter parents, school counselors, and college deans held their hands all the way through. For everyone else, it’s easier to just look the other way and go with it than it is to fight. These people then graduate and go on to run Hollywood and the New York Times.
What’s the harm? Like a herd, colleges and universities can only go as fast as the slowest student. When EVERYONE has to go to college, and EVERYONE NEEDS an education, the end result is that nobody gets educated because the smart ones get Harrison Bergeron’ed by the dumb ones, who, in turn, have had so much smoke blown up their ass they think they’re the next coming of Karl Marx.
Theoretically, the tiered university system should ameliorate this. Of course, elite institutions pack their classes with those who can afford to ‘play the game’. The remainder is filled with token diversity students to make the rich kids feel ‘woke’. And, of course, to serve the universities’ true purpose.
Academia Seeks to Maintain Its Power
This may sound obvious. However, universities SHOULD exist to benefit their students. At the very least, they should offer a service in exchange for tuition, which theoretically they do. The problem is that the service they offer could be obtained for the cost of the internet, and they charge enough to put people in debt for the rest of their lives.
They do it by creating education as a value in and of itself. From day one in school, we’re taught to value knowledge for its own sake. Now, there’s nothing wrong with that; in fact, it’s a position I wholly endorse. However, the purpose of seeking knowledge (apart from it being awesome) is to become a better, more thoughtful person. If done properly, ‘education for its own sake’ would provide some basic knowledge, the tools for one to think on their own, and encourage them to reach their own conclusions.
Instead of teaching students HOW to think, however, universities are more interested in telling students WHAT to think.
Cultlike Indoctrination of Diversity
Far from teaching students to think for themselves, most universities actively discourage it, at least on many issues. Look at the commitment to diversity and antiracism. Try to question the latest diversity initiative or any assertion of the antiracist crowd and see just how much these intellectuals enjoy an arduous debate.
If these academics’ cause is so pure, shouldn’t they be able to defend it? The problem is that these institutions, and many of the professors, have dedicated their lives to things like gender studies and fighting racism. Now that legal equality has been achieved and overt racism is taboo, what good are they to anyone? Who needs a social justice warrior when social justice has been achieved?
To avoid people seeing how worthless these people are, they need to keep upping the ante. Hence…
Intersectionality- A self-perpetuating scam
Racism isn’t dead – we just can’t see it because we aren’t smart enough. Worse, we’re racist. Sure, we love everyone and treat all races equally, but our ‘white privilege’ makes us blind to ‘microaggressions’. By pushing more and more obscure concepts (which, conveniently, they keep making up), they ensure that racism can never be defeated – thus, they will always have a role to play.
They then force this critical race theory onto our young people, indoctrinating them with the idea that America is an irredeemable, racist nation. In undermining our nation, they preserve their own social prestige. In exchange, college kids (who aren’t white/male/cis/etc.) are handed a convenient excuse for all life’s shortcomings; even the ones who don’t qualify get to be ‘allies’*.
Of course, like the parasites they are, these academics enrich themselves at the cost of the nation. They peddle snake-oil theories to keep themselves relevant and keep their students too dumb/scared to challenge them.
Conclusion
It’s not at all surprising that voices like AOC and Bernie Sanders are demanding free education for all. After all, what ideological crusader wouldn’t want the government to foot the bill for a four-year indoctrination camp?
However, for those of us who actually care about this country, this isn’t such a good deal. We’d pay for the next generation of BLM rioters convinced they’re helping the oppressed by burning down their neighborhoods. The idea that our government should pay for young Americans to be indoctrinated with anti-American ideas is absurd.
If anything, we should be tearing these ivory towers down, not helping to build them up.
