Yeah, I took this for face value right off the bat. As in, if they are willing to do all this there must be a problem. Etc.
After letting this digest for a while, I started to see what it really was.
I put all the pieces together. From the fact that CS1950 was started after a loss of health benefits, the rift between faculty and leadership before this, the faculty dealing with the media after Wolfe resigned, the lies about KKK on campus, etc.
The final straw for me was learning that hunger strike was worth $20 MIL and trying to tell us that the struggle is real. Then setting up a black only safe space so they can "decompress and be real". They essentially harbored the very environment they claimed they were trying to rid the world of.
Even someone who was trying to be as open minded as possible about all of this can't deny that its been nothing but an academic coup d'état disguised under the guise of social activism.
Not only have I changed my view on this particular event, but my entire purview is starting to change.
I imagined how I would feel if this same thing was allowed to happen on a larger stage, and I found that I didn't like that idea at all.
This feels like a dress rehearsal for something else. They have my attention.

What if I told you this wasn't the beginning, but step 10,170 in a complete process?
We're not saying we're smarter than you for getting here before you, just glad you're on board now.
What's right and politics are two different things that intertwine. The political will fight over the right and pit each other against the other, but right is always right. This was never right.
You don't have to change your mind about everything else, just dig deeper than the average a-hole will to see the truth.
This seems nerdier than it is. Welcome to not being blinded by bullshite.
