I'm guessing, from the frequency of his cites to it, YouTube U. Which makes it kind of ironic that he's accusing people* who spent years in college learning stuff in detail of being indoctrinated, when he keeps offering slanted YouBoob videos that are like five minutes long which are definitely not lame little snippets of attempted indoctrination.

*Not including me. Graduated high school 1975 (go Commodores), never went to college. So I guess at least I escaped all that long-haired CommieLib brainwashing stuff. Well, maybe not the "long-haired" part- that just kind of went with the mid-70's territory.

Maybe not formally educated in "higher learning", but I find you one of the most intelligent and sensible posters on here. You are certainly far more intelligent than Donald Trump for all his bragging of having attended the undergrad Wharton School at the U of PA.

Zealously, on topics which, if they could be
Objective, would reveal the infantalism of their desires.

This is a forum on politics, not religion.

Thats not it. In your day, were there avowed marxist professors indoctrinating students?

They are indoctrinating kids just out of high school.

Sounds crazy, right?


The trailer for No Safe Spaces is just 3 minutes long.

There is an un-liberal trend on campuses today concerning free speech, safe spaces, trigger warnings, de-platforming, and the like. But the classic liberal philosophy that rigorously defends free speech and the like is also rigorously against just about everything the Trump administration stood for.

So any attempt to divide the political world into only two camps, which must both be either all good or all evil, has only one failing: it doesn't match reality.

Thats it.

Its being called cultural marxism. Its defenders cry 'no such thing'. They say things like "Nonsense, We all studied Marx in economics class"

It is real. It did not happen by itself. Certain professors are now indoctrinating, not teaching. It is growing and each year that graduates enter media, politics, and corporations. They are everywhere college graduates go to work. Let that sink in.

It is a sea cultural change. Consider Gilette's 'woke' item (TV commercial) about "toxic masculinity", for example. It cannot be denied. The fact that this sea change is being denied is another problem, and telling.

The classic liberal philosophy that rigorously defends free speech and the like is under growing attacks on college campuses, and now in the streets. Colleges traditionally were the place free speech was cherished, for the exchange of ideas, and weeding out bad ideas. That is dying on campus today.

The trend you point out is destroying free speech. Concerned professors are documenting the "trend". One prof told Bill Maher it was in the eighties that he first noticed the trend, where students and staff began observing "politically correct" speech limitations. Now they are rioting on campus to suppress speech. The trend you point out is a bit more than a trend. It is multiplying.

Another variant product of this: Footage of diners being attacked by a violent mob for remaining silent rather than saying "Black Lives Matter". Did the MSM show you that?

This bigger trend, as you put it, cannot be denied. "No Safe Spaces" is the first documentary exposing this threat, AFAIK.


How did this begin? Who started it? From where did it come??

You flat out don't know what you're talking about.

Now, I can't blame you for your ignorance. I mean if I never attended University I might believe some whacko's video about the experience too.

No scratch that. I'm not that gullible.

True, maybe is why our political world got mostly divided into two camps....way easier to divide and conquer.

Any classic liberal, just about by definition. The ones I currently like are Jerry Coyne, Steven Pinker, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the 3 remaining New Atheists.

Did you miss my point? Your post supported this black and white thinking that doesn't reflect the reality of those campus issues aligning with the GOP.

The Socialism Indoctrination in Schools starts in preschool.

There is an episode of Family Ties where Andy goes to pre-school. Alex goes to pick him up, and the teacher talks about how everyone loves Andy, and that is so especially kind and helpful to his classmates, and always shares his toys.

Alex grabs Andy and runs out of the room in horror. How dare they indoctrinate kids to SHARE!!! Socialists!!!!

Bubba is copying this from Ron Paul, who has been thrown out of the Libertarian Party and now hangs with Don Black, the owner of Stormfront White Action Power.

Here is a photo of Ron Paul and Don Black (Stormfront Nazi). The other photos are Ron Paul's Cultural Marxism tweet and a detail of that image.

Ron Paul also accepted political donations from David Duke and the KKK.

Bubba is a supporter of extreme white right wing groups.

I was going to chime in on the simple fact that "Cultural Marxism" is usually thinly-veiled code for "Jewish" as well. But instead, I'll note tgat the Gillette ad he's whining about was basically designed in the wake of conservatives smashing their Keurig coffee makers and setting their Nike gear on fire in response to similar ads, and that the only real point is to get everyone to laugh at the people throwing hissy fits online, and thus amplifying the strength of their advertisements (or lack of advertising in Keurig's case).
