Prof Calls Republicans Racist and Misogynist, Warns They Will Close Colleges

Professor Terry is right about my beliefs in one particular aspect: I believe its time to demand that colleges be defunded of tax payer dollars.

If they want to indoctrinate children, let them do it on their own damned dime.

The second point I'd like to make is that, YES, America *is* an oligarchy - an oligarchy of the Ruling Class of which Prof. Terry is a part.

    This is not the type of thought/speech that tenure was supposed to protect. This is indoctrination, not free thought based on reason. My guess is that any student in his class that expresses any opposing viewpoint receives a poor grade. That is anti-thetical to what he spews forth in this diatribe. Such hypocrisy.

    What a load of mule muffins... We hear the same old rhetoric over and over and never do we see any real evidence of the assertions. Too many of these eggheads spew unsubstantiated generalities. They seem like the greedy ones to me. If they feel their ability to continue to indoctrinate is in jeopardy the same old deck of cards is played... If there is one racist from an opposing ideology they must all be so. But of course there are none of their own ilk...

      Point for Mule Muffins... --giggles--

      Typical of higher education nowadays - one used to go to college for a truly higher education in form and in fact; now, the professor's mantra is becoming "Yes and no, perhaps and perhaps not, pardon me, I agree with everything you're saying, yes and no, perhaps and perhaps not, pardon me, I agree... "*

      This one (like most) is truly a visionary of the discipline of non-absolutism. Perhaps he matriculated and graduated at Berkeley, likely with honors... (or in this case, dishonors...)

      (*- A point if you know where that quote came from, who it was attributed to, and who penned it...)

    I disagree I don't think this professor is part of the Ruling class of our Oligarchy, he is just a shill. The problem is that neither party Republican or Democrat represents the people. The parties represent themselves and their own best interests. As soon as a Washington outsider is elected they are quickly brought into the "fold". Massive amounts of money are used to corrupt almost everyone we send to DC. The culture of Government is the problem.

      In repsonse:

      "Never has there been so little diversity within America's upper crust. Always, in America as elsewhere, some people have been wealthier and more powerful than others. But until our own time America's upper crust was a mixture of people who had gained prominence in a variety of ways, who drew their money and status from different sources and were not predictably of one mind on any given matter. The Boston Brahmins, the New York financiers, the land barons of California, Texas, and Florida, the industrialists of Pittsburgh, the Southern aristocracy, and the hardscrabble politicians who made it big in Chicago or Memphis had little contact with one another. Few had much contact with government, and "bureaucrat" was a dirty word for all. So was "social engineering." Nor had the schools and universities that formed yesterday's upper crust imposed a single orthodoxy about the origins of man, about American history, and about how America should be governed. All that has changed.

      Today's ruling class, from Boston to San Diego, was formed by an educational system that exposed them to the same ideas and gave them remarkably uniform guidance, as well as tastes and habits. These amount to a social canon of judgments about good and evil, complete with secular sacred history, sins (against minorities and the environment), and saints. Using the right words and avoiding the wrong ones when referring to such matters -- speaking the "in" language -- serves as a badge of identity. Regardless of what business or profession they are in, their road up included government channels and government money because, as government has grown, its boundary with the rest of American life has become indistinct." -
