WE LET IT HAPPEN!
We Let It Happen!
This nation’s number one problem is not lack of diversity, racism, covid-19, or a mounting national debt. Our number one problem is the fact we’ve ignored high school and university hiring practices. For every conservative instructor hired, fifty liberals are hired. Montana teachers have just elected a card-carrying communist as president of the state teacher’s union. That, obviously, seems acceptable to a majority of teachers in a red state. Things have totally spiraled out of control: personified by the fact free-speech, equal sharing of opinion, and a respect for a Constitutional Amendment deemed so important by our founders it was number one in additions to our founding document are all totally ignored on our campuses.
From the web:
University of California, Santa Cruz professor emeritus John Ellis told "Life, Liberty & Levin" Sunday that protests of events featuring moderate or conservative speakers on college campuses are just a "superficial symptom" of the indoctrination taking place in America's classrooms.
"The public sees the shout-downs and the near-riots with regard to visiting speakers, but it doesn't think about how that could happen," Ellis, author of the recent book "The Breakdown of Higher Education," told host Mark Levin.
"The reason it happens, of course, is you've got students largely doing it in those cases. But they're taught by radical professors," Ellis went on. "So, the real source of the problem is ... in the classrooms where those kids learn their contempt for ideas that don't fit within what their professors are teaching them."
According to Ellis, studies have shown that conservatives were prevalent on the faculties of colleges and universities by about a three-to-two margin in the late 1960s. By contrast, liberals outnumber conservatives by as much as thirteen-to-one in modern times
.
In recent years, sometimes violent protests have greeted events for speakers like conservative pundit Ben Shapiro, commentator and author Milo Yiannopoulos, political scientist and sociologist Charles Murray and Dutch politician Geert Wilders.
