I’m always amazed at the magic power that Penis People of Pallor have, by their mere presence, to drive others into fits of terror and incomprehensible speech.
A student at Kalamazoo College has been attacked and labeled “homophobic” and “racist” by student government representatives because he wanted to facilitate a discussion about campus carry.
In an audio recording exclusively obtained by Campus Reform, students at a Student Commission meeting—K-College’s student government—interrupted Alexander Ross, a sophomore political science major, as he requested that the students engage in a conversation about campus carry, a request he had been asking the Commission for five straight weeks.
During the public comment portion of the meeting, Ross addressed the Commission’s refusal to discuss issues outside of its ideology. Despite being interrupted several times, Ross encouraged the Commission to stop automatically saying “no” to students’ requests and be more open to other viewpoints.
“I’ve been here for five weeks and I’ve talked to two of you” Ross told the Commission, which according to its website, has over 23 commissioners.
“Sorry, I’m gonna have to interrupt you because you as a white male talking to me,” protested an unidentified member of the Commission midway through Ross’s remarks.
“Seek out people who think differently than you instead of shutting them down as wrong,” Ross responded. “It’s extremely childish to call me names,” he said, but the name calling had just begun. […]
Another student commissioner at K-College, said Ross was “disrespecting” people on the Commission as he was “talking to [another student] like that as a person of color when you’re coming from a white male privilege stance in life.”
“And what’s interesting right now is that you actually can’t respond to me because your time is up,” a student identified as Vice President of the Commission Rian Brown said at the meeting. “And I know that’s going to be hard for you because you come from a place of such privilege that you felt it was okay to disrespect people of color in this room.”
Members accused Ross of “racism,” “homophobia,” and “sexism,” and some even went so far as to accuse Ross’s pro-Second Amendment position of desiring to kill students in black hoodies.
“I’m going to be honest with you, Alex. I never advocated for you. I never would have,” Brown said. “I would never represent you because, I couldn’t because, you directly conflict with my life. Period.”
“For anyone on this Commission to represent you would be to represent racism, sexism, homophobia,” Brown said. “And clearly you just spent two hours of your time listening that this body would like to be an anti-racist institution. So what you seek should not come from here. At least not this body with these people.”
“There will be no resolution written for your racism,” she continued. “It won’t happen. No one will support you. If you want to do this, whatever you call yourself, disrespecting, burning bridges, having no reason to create open dialogue, you’re going to continue to be the lone ranger, who from my perspective is threatened by black and brown people. So no. I will not advocate for you to get a gun to shoot me because you feel scared in the middle of the night when you see me in my black hoodie. I will not. I would not.”
What precious snowflakes fascists!
Just . . . just . . . I don’t have words.
The comments over at that site talk about the complete lack of debate in this interaction.
Clearly, they didn’t see those geniuses from the national debating championship. “Shut up, I’m a black woman” *is* a debate-winner these days.
Once again, if you are white, male and looking to go to college, consider a good trade school instead.
Have you seen what competent welders, plumbers, mechanics, etc. make? Plus, you also have the advantage of a career that’s hard to offshore.
They have learned the lesson of victimhood well. I wish they would get what they deserve as a result, but alas, they will get considerably more, largely coming out of the pockets of those they disparage.
In Mr. Ross’ case, I might suggest gunsmithing school. I suspect it will become a very much in-demand field the way things are going…
What precious
snowflakesfascists!Not to mention racist.
Silly person, black people can’t be racist; it’s well-documented.
Why are you trying to Linguistically Oppress Women of Color with your white-man’s definitions and logic and consistency?
“Logic and consistency” are all about punching down. Social Justice Activism is all about punching up.
I’ll bet they feel oppressed about the song “I Got a Gal in Kalamazoo.” It starts with an alphabet lesson.
…while I can guess you’re being sarcastic I find it depressing that people think so little of non-whites that they claim logic is something exclusive to white people.
carrying weapons can sometimes help prevent some of your more unpleasant instances of rape
(lol)
oh my goodness
poor little thing
she dumb
and it sounds like they made her poor shortbus ass resign from that commission
dumb dumb dumb but i bet she might can still get a job with the government or a non-profit
someday
maybe
i just don’t see where she brings anything to the table that differentiates her from all the other social justice bimbos
no sweetie purple hair don’t get it
“I find it depressing that people think so little of non-whites that they claim logic is something exclusive to white people”
I’m thinking you’re confusing pigmentation with ideology…
I had no idea I was P cubed.
I’d expect this level of asinine stupidity from Western Michigan University, but to think that parents actually pay private college tuition for thier chilren to be so damn stupid?
The private sector can do anything government can do — more efficiently.
That’s not always a good thing.
I heart Eileen B. Wilson-Oyelaran!
She’s my gal in AZO.
**** A social media controversy involving race, Christianity and the concept of white privilege has been brewing at Moody Bible Institute after a forum hosted last week by an African-American student group.
The Tuesday event, called “White Like Me” and sponsored by a campus student group known as Embrace, was billed as presenting “thoughts on race from the perspective of a privileged person.”
[…]
Subsequently, a Moody professor… sa[id] that, “Using the term ‘white’ to categorize millions of people under one catch-all term, then pegging them as elite oppressors, is offensive on its face and unworthy of Christian discourse.” ****
“It’s still up!”
**** Reached by phone Monday, the professor, Bryan Litfin, who teaches theology and Christianity at Moody, confirmed he made the Facebook post but called white privilege a “complicated issue” and said he regretted his words.
“As I look back on my comment, I just made it too quickly against my brothers and sisters, and I regret it,” said Litfin, who lives in Wheaton. “And I look back on it as not being worthy of what a professor should do. That’s in my own heart and what the Lord has given to me.” ****
“No, it ain’t.”
