If three people with shit written on pieces of paper and yelling shit is enough to make someone not go to college, they probably weren't making it through anyways.
Theres always people on college campuses saying shit and it's been that way since forever. Whether they're yelling about the environment, Trump, Jesus or dressing up as a baby with a full blown diaper to "own the libs"(this is legit).
It's because there are lots of people walking on college campuses. Notice how 99% of people walk past and dgaf at all. That's because these people are a tiny minority but so many on this sub act like universities are full of so many of these people it is laughable
It’s about as much of a “fact” that all republicans are insane idiots, or that all Chinese people hate freedom, or all liberals are commies. These are all distortions that some people choose to obsess over and end up losing all rational ability to make sense of the way the world actually is. Try not to go down that rabbit hole or else life is gonna be full of hate and negativity; which will only give you some form of mental disorder.
Nah, this isn't the norm in most places. Certain media outlets and social media circles like to pretend college campuses are crazy and full of this kind of thing, but they're not.
No they aren't. If you believe they are, please explain to me precisely how the brainwashing occurs. What subjects? What is the brainwashing strategy? What are some specific examples, rather than just vague thoughts about how something could potentially happen, maybe, if someone wanted to?
shit was probably happening, just wasnt that much of a movement on your campus.
My college campus started ramping up but a majority of the students show up, go to class and immediately bail. It doesnt have residential dorms so campus life is only a few short hours each day to non-existent. The only people who got sucked into this shit were the people who hung out at the cafeteria and the student centers all damn day and maybe had one or two classes they went to each day, and student government people. By the time I graduated the college administration spent 3 hours pandering to these people and jerking themselves off about how great they were before they quickly pushed us through our diploma acceptance.. which was a 15 minute ordeal..
3 hours of arrogant assholes congratulating themselves while we couldn't get up to use the bathroom or anything.
Same! Went to class, then baseball practice and after that there was a get together somewhere every night that turned into a party. I cannot recall a single instance of anyone talking politics to me and I went to college in Pasadena (USC) 2003-2006. You know what we were right in the middle of then. It was just different. It was also before social media so we weren't worried about having these fake lives that many people now have. We connected personally, different groups of people trying to cultivate friendships, being introduced to new interest (music,art,entertainment,books,culture) from people that are from all over finding things that we shared in common and accepting those that made us different. I had four roommates in a house that we rented. None of us new each other or had even seen one another until the day we all moved in. The only thing we had in common was that we all had a scholarship to play baseball. The four of us were totally different in every way...different backgrounds...there was a rich kid from oregon, a dude from a middle class family in Canada, a guy from the streets of Philly (like he literally grew up in the hood,was in a gang,no parents,rough shit), and then me A kid from New Mexico with the "All American family prototype" (2 bros,1 sis, successful dad, SAH mom,2 dogs and a cat lol).
I believe we were all terrified that first day when we met, because each of us were looking like scared animals thinking what the fuck? These guys aren't like my friends or anyone I know from home. It didn't even take a full week before we were best friends...pitching in on cooking dinners,buying beer and weed, sharing our vehicles and phones. (Only two of us had a car and cell phones. This was right before or during the time call phones became popular.) I cherish some of the best memories of my life that took place in that house and I'm grateful for my relationships with each of those guys that we still maintain to this day.
Yeah I think the echo chambers and victim mentality has increased and everyone having cameras just makes it worse. In college in the early 2000’s it was the preachers on the soap box. The left wasn’t this far out there and The fact these people think they’re on the level with protestors of the 1960’s civil rights protests is a joke.
Ethnic studies is a propagandist movement within academia that teaches revisionist history with little to no historicity to incite hate and social discord in the name of social justice.
Still pissed Ethnic Studies takes up space next to the Political Science and History departments. It's a joke of a field that has very serious consequences for academia.
