What The World Of Academia Really Is Today

By Semperpapa

I have been writing at length about the hypocrisy of the left and also of the indoctrination that today’s academia is perpetrating against American youth. The brainwashing is utterly astonishing and highly disturbing.

In the mix of those few who actually recognize the true danger that the indoctrination of the new generation represents for the future of our Republic, are some young people who have founded a web site where they demonstrate the hypocrisy, contorted and ignorant results of years of control that the progressive movement in America has held over the university system.

The web site is www.exposingleftists.com and it is very interesting, yet discouraging.

Their latest video is an eye opener, or at least it should be, for those who still maintain that the alarmist words spoken by many, including this writer, about the danger that lurks in the hallways of American universities and about the erosion of American traditional values that is forced by progressive docents upon the impressionable masses of students.

Here is the video:

It is evident that the principles upon which the First Amendment is based on are not very clear in the minds of the left (not to even mention the guy who is for freedom of speech but does not know what the First Amendment is. Really telling revelation of the “quality” of education imparted upon students today).

What the video shows is practically that the liberals in academia, from the docents to the students, are all for freedom of speech, but only when the speech is in agreement with their political leanings.

Contrarily, when the content of speech is dissenting from their beliefs, it immediately becomes hate speech that should be banned from public domain.

The very same types of students are all in favor of re-distribution of wealth, but fervently against the re-distribution of their grades. They are ready to take away from individuals their right to benefit financially from their hard work, but absolutely opposed to be denied the fruit of their hard work in school to benefit those who are not as willing to put their time in.

The main problem is that academia has been taken over by radicalism for decades, resulting in a generation of Americans more interested in the transformation of our society into a utopian Marxist system that is “fair” to all. In reality, it all comes down to control: control of the mind, control of the system, control of the wealth and control of the dissemination of information. If enough time would be dedicated to explaining what really Marxist systems are by showing the truth about the Soviet Union, North Korea, China, Cuba, Venezuela, and what those regimes represent for the freedom of the individual, maybe the results would be different, albeit contrary to the agenda.

What higher education is based on is no longer the teaching of facts and knowledge, but instead it is based in the teaching of hypocrisy as a way of life. Everything can be justified, including violence and rejection of the Constitution, if one can find the right cause to get behind.

Why do we not hear students call out the hate speech of someone like George Schultz or Bill Press?

Why do we not hear the protestation of students against the racial speech of despicable individuals like Al Sharpton and Jessy Jackson?

The answer is in the fact that those professors who are part of the educated elite in the indoctrination camps that our universities have become, agree with the contorted premises of the above mentioned characters, so they espouse their messages and therefore they propagate them, while dissent becomes immediately hate speech.

To aggravate the issue is the presence of many Middle Eastern professors, very well planted moles in the university system for the propagation of anti-American and anti-Israel propaganda. It is a clear case of political correctness gone wild, with the elevation of radical anti-American individuals to positions where they have free reign over the manipulation of what students are exposed to. It all works very well toward the ultimate goal of creating an even more radicalized generation of young people, one even more extreme in their hate for the country than their parents, the Woodstock generation.

The whole thing is a danger that common Americans cannot or are not willing to see. They get behind the idea of more young people having access to higher education, even going to the extreme of agreeing with the false notion that a college education is a right.

Reality is that college education is not a right, but a choice. Choice, a concept that liberals only associate with abortion, but reject in regard to everything else, opting instead for the Marxist concept of the government being in control of every aspect of their lives.

So, when we hear Obama and his cronies stating that a higher education is a right of everyone, we should look beyond the feel good façade of the statement and understand that the driving force behind those words is the goal of a despotic regime to gain control over the youth of America.

I am not convinced that the trend can be reversed anymore without drastic and unpopular action, but I still hope that it can be slowed and possibly halted. American conservatives sure have their work cut out for them.

Just my thoughts!
