Every week now Trump goose steps closer and closer to naked christofascism…
Harvard won’t accept the Trump administration’s demands for a sweeping ideological crackdown on both students and faculty — putting billions in federal funding at risk.
-
- “No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,” Harvard President Alan Garber wrote in an open letter today.
📚 Federal officials had demanded that Harvard “audit the student body, faculty, staff, and leadership for viewpoint diversity,” and overhaul its admissions and hiring process to remove any diversity considerations.
-
- They also said Harvard must reject international students “hostile to American values and institutions … including students supportive of terrorism or anti-Semitism,” ban some student clubs and sideline faculty who are “more committed to activism than scholarship.”
The demands came in conjunction with an investigation into roughly $9 billion in federal funding.
…the famous quote from Bertrand Russell about when Fascism starts is so apt here.
The threats to Universities about free speech and thought crimes fly in the face of democratic values.
Trump is a fascist and he will only get more fascist.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
Speaking of intelligent, has the left worked out what a woman is yet?
@ Keep calm carry on.
What Left?
I’m sure you find that fascinating KCCO…
hahahahaha
Chinese friends have told me what is happening now, the ideological fervor and craziness is reminiscent of he Cultural Revolution.
” Trump is a fascist and he will only get more fascist ”
If you watch and listen to Hitlers speeches and his crackdown against the ” enemies ” of the German nation in the 1930s it seems that in a 21st century context ,Trump and his supporters are laying the groundwork for a very real shift in that direction.
The American people have voted and unleashed a frightening dictatorship that will have serious repercussions for their safety and their families and friends. The threat is real. Up until now this was something that happened in far off strange foreign countries , never in the land of the free. Until now.
How long before they silence Bernie Sanders and his supporters ? And anyone else who Trump perceives as a threat.
September 11th has ensured that all the legislation is already in place to detain any threat to national security or what the elected government determines is a threat to America. The draconian homeland security laws will be used against anyone Trump thinks are a threat to his presidency.
Foolishly fascinating irrelevance.
And can I just write:
Three or four cheers to The Daily Blog and Martyn Bradbury in particular because who else? No one else that’s who, not.
Stick by Bert’s ideas. Or, reality and idealism.
“Trump is a fascist and he will only get more fascist.”
Absolutely correct.
