"I heard of a girl in a different course who was marked down for using the words 'man-made' and 'sportsmanship'."--Aussie College Student -- |
Evergreen State Kindergarten Update
John Sexton's (June 5, 2018) coverage of the report finding Evergreen discriminated against one of its professors because he was white convinced me to return to SnowFlake Land...only to come across another Sexton piece (June 13) - and a hilarious video (below) - discussing students' reaction to the Supreme Court's Masterpiece Bakery decision...the mindset displayed by these snowflakes is disturbing - I don't know whther to laugh or cry. Sigh.
Sexton's Evergreen piece includes an hour-long video which says it all (I haven't included it here because of its length). Washington voters need to ask their State legislators why they are supporting this indoctrination center with taxpayers' money.
This is a very interesting story about a little-discussed issue that took place at Evergreen College last year. Two professors, one a white male and the other a Hispanic woman, were investigated after filing complaints against one another. The school hired a Seattle law firm to investigate and the firm concluded that while there was no evidence the white man discriminated against the Hispanic woman, there was evidence that the Hispanic woman had violated the school’s non-discrimination policy with regard to the white professor.
Oopsie.
Meanwhile Down Under...

Thomas Lifson reports that Australian universities are also plagued by the fascism of Political Correctness. Not only are the leftist academics pushing gender-neutral language, they're also penalizing students for not employing it: |
University of Queensland students have complained about academics docking marks for using the word "mankind'' in essays.
A politics student was penalized for using the grammatically correct pronoun of "she'' to describe a car.
North Americans had damned well better wake up to the leftists actively involved in the destruction of our liberties while they still can.
When I was a tadpole (yes, there were Dinosaurs) we knew who the enemy was. Communists were killing in Cuba, Eastern Europe and Asia...Korea, Cambodia, Viet Nam, China, and if the current pattern of political indoctrination of our children continues, they will start killing people here, too. It is inevitable.
There were air-raid sirens on every block back then, but that's another story...
Once a society surrenders its moral values, it is lost.
Just how pervasive has the leftist indoctrination of our people become? Kaminsky and Moore report that some feminists now insist that female body parts should actually be renamed, not because they are not appropriate, but because they were named by men.
Let that sink in. By the same logic, of course, it is clear that before these examples of Marxism's useful idiots are done, they will be demanding the renaming of our countries, our counties, our cities and our streets...because, er, men.

From fallopian tubes to the G-spot, women’s body parts have been named by – and after – men. But the masculine language of medicine doesn’t end there. Does it matter?
"I lost marks because I used 'mankind'' in my assignment, and I referred to a car I owned as 'she is my pride and joy'.''
Kaminsky points out that female body parts such as “the Pouch of Douglas, Bartholin’s glands, fallopian tubes, and that elusive Grafenberg spot” are all named after men: James Douglas, Gabriel Fallopian (sic — his name was actually Fallopius), Caspar Bartholin, and Ernst Grafenberg. Not only that, even male gods got involved in the whole name-that-female-body-part game because Hymen is the Greek god of marriage ceremonies and the hymen is the membrane covering the vagina (which is often punctured for the first time during sex which, long ago in the past, first happened on a woman’s wedding night).
So, as mentioned above, after this incident, a Seattle law firm was hired to investigate the competing claims. And what the firm found, in a report which has been buried by the school, is that Baumunk’s approach to Huerta in March was reasonable and based on her position (as the head of the union) not her protected status as a Hispanic woman. That’s a win for Baumunk.
It’s when the follow up questions are asked that things get interesting. Should a black baker be forced to bake a cake for a KKK rally? Suddenly, the students aren’t so sure. One young woman who was okay with forcing the Christian baker to bake the cake stammers, “Um, well, yeah, no. I mean, like, they shouldn’t but, like, I guess that kind of just, like, contradicts what I just said. Uh, but yeah.”
