Here's another. It looks like Arkansas properly took care of one of their snowflake lovers too.

Nice job piggies.

I know it's trendy to give Mizzou shite on this board for safe spaces and entitlement culture, but this soft SJW shite has been going on on campuses nationwide for years. It's a byproduct of being raised in a culture of participation trophies and identity politics.

Kids are told at a young age that if they don't succeed, it's not their fault, it's someone else's fault. They are told that going to college is a right, not a privilege. That they should feel ashamed of the color of their skin or that the color of their skin is an excuse to not succeed.


It's gonna have to start getting painful for these delicate snowflakes very soon or they won't learn, and this country is doomed.

When colleges make it their business to stop teaching and start agreeing with students, they surrender their purpose: their opportunity to enrich a young student's development.

In this bizarre world of academic cowardice, we see college presidents tested by students, and students running our universities. Our children have embraced our entitlement culture, enjoying its calories without the guilt.


In my family this was warned about happening long ago. My Dad used to say that in a nation where anything goes ... everything eventually will. That the liberal progressive socialist pathology, psychopathology even, that was so prevalent in the 60s would eventually lead us to the insanity we see today in this country ... a nation where the incurable ward is in charge of the insane asylum.

I'm not sure what it will take to fix it but, if he was right, we're only delaying the inevitable right now and the country is doomed because of decades of this academic intellectualism brainwashing the young.

Worse yet, we've been shamed, shammed too, into believing we must pay $100s of $1000s to have our kids brainwashed if we want them to have a chance to be successful in this world.

It's all so wackadoodle these days ... I suspect it's beyond repair. This last election only delayed things for a couple two or three more decades, if we are lucky.
