A Stanford University professor with a distinguished background in business has told of his dismay at the 'cancel culture' on campuses, telling how he was labelled a racist for standing for the United States' flag. [SNIP] Peterson said that he had been reported to the dean for 'triggering' students.
'It all started when President Trump was elected,' Peterson told Tucker Carlson on Fox News on Tuesday.
'I had several students come to me and say they needed time off. They'd been triggered by the election, and they couldn't take their exams."

This will only end when parents refuse to send their kids to these indoctrination institutions and when the alumni stop supporting this assault on fact based education. Sending a child to these institutions assures they will be enemies of the country, it’s founding principles and the men who gambled everything they had to create this country. Want a strident hate filled communist zealot then let these anti-American liars get a hold of your children. They depend on the support of others to exist,which gels very well with the ideology they worship. No amount of higher education is worth a dime if it attacks the very core of the country you love. Stop funding Ivy League higher education. Seek out other colleges and universities whose goal is education.

Why is it that a Brit newspaper known for t&a is the only one that seems to break these stories?

One thing we know about ivy league students (and college students in general) is that they are good at "education." All students will take this seriously, but the ivy leaguers will take this more seriously than anyone else.

Modern universities are nothing more than indoctrination camps. According to the article, the students know nothing about American history or how so many brave men died so they could spew their Marxist garbage. These students are being "triggered" by patriotism. I wonder what the men who stormed the beaches at Normandy would think of these snowflakes. Of course, the flakes have probably never heard of Normandy, but one student, Gabby Crooks, thinks "white people should be eradicated." That's some education she's getting at the esteemed Stanford University. Pathetic.
In addition, these greedy colleges, who charge massive tuition fees and get federal funds of all sorts, are nothing more than corrupt bastions for devious Marxists. Stanford currently has an endowment of 26 billion dollars! All of these universities have huge endowments. Why do they need these all this money? Where is it coming from?
It's time we start to crack down on Big Education, and take a close look at what is going on behind the scenes at these collegial indoctrination camps, including professors who are getting generous grants from the Communist Chinese.

All over the country... people are rising up and questioning the dictates from Washington... it's a sad day when WE the people have to remind ourselves.... "oh no... here comes the government"...it's bad enough the FBI has lost credibility... and the supremes are not respected...the court system has put blinders on ...and the teachers union is indoctrinating our children...but the worse blow that WE must bear... is... President Trump was cheated out of his second and the courts will do nothing about it...go MAGA!!

The where do the woke students get employment after college? If they can get the Biden White House to pick up their student loan tabs, they can go directly into Activist Groups or politics.

When I read this article, I think God help us if we ever have to fight a war like WW2. This generations is too soft. My uncle would get so upset with young people complaining about little things. He would say to them when I was your age I was marching through Europe as part of Patton's Army and eating K-rations. My father and father-in-law served too and if you didn't serve and were of the right age, then you were seen as scum.

He wrote: 'A Black Lives Matter advocate asked, of all things, whether I would stand for the American flag.
'To provide context for my decision, I shared a story. As a toddler, I'd seen my mother take a call from the Department of Defense announcing that her fighter-pilot brother had been killed.
'Honoring her grief, I'd chosen to stand for the flag under which my only uncle had offered the ultimate sacrifice.
'The student's response was presented as an irrefutable argument; my choice was 'racist.''
He said that Condoleeza Rice, the Secretary of State under George W. Bush, who now teaches at Stanford, recounted how she told her students that capturing 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, while in office, felt like 'having Erwin Rommel under lock and key.'
Peterson wrote: 'The blank looks on the faces of her very bright students revealed that they had never heard of WWII's famous Desert Fox.'

Wow. I am Gen X and I just wonder if my generation was the last to get a real education. I can't imagine being so historically illiterate. Their "teachers" should be ashamed.

Maybe those so-called “elite” colleges are recruiting the wrong students?

The 13% should be aware that they are vastly outnumbered and should stop running their mouths so recklessly.

How about kicking the little snot nosed a hole out of your class. The world is not a friendly place that gives a rat's rear end about your feelings. The sooner this snowflake learns that, the better he/she will be prepared for life.

I’d like to sit down with one of these young, chunky little gravy bowls, who got into college by affirmative action. I’d ask, “How do you propose to carry out this ‘eradication’ given the small percentage of your population? Do you have an army? Do you have a transport system to ship whites to death camps? No matter how scowly your black militia groups may be, we have far more armed whites than you do. You may want to reconsider your idea of mass murder. You’ll likely get yourself eradicated first!”

I wonder what percentage of Ivy League students are brainwashed, lunatic leftists?
I'm guessing it's about the same percentage as blacks who are hateful, resentful racists - - namely a very tiny number. It's just that the lunatic leftists have very big mouths - - which are amplified by the hate=America, leftist media.
These people are a very tiny percentage of the American public - - toothless tigers - - and they should be stood up to - - and CRUSHED!

Stand for the flag, respect those that have gone before to protect the nation, stand to respect the nation. It is the only truly free nation left in the world. But the royalty in the Congress don't think everyone should be free to make their own decisions and therefore one should not stand for the flag because that is the major symbol of freedom.

Ronald Reagan said the most frightening words said were, "We're the government (schools) and we're here to help you."

Hate to break it to the good professor, but you have been nothing but indoctrination factories for at least the past 50 years or so. This Marxist trash could have never gotten a toehold in America but for the 'education' system.
