Colleges were once a place where young minds went after high school to grtow intellectually by debating controversial ideas. In the era of political collectness, they have morphed into a honeycomb like structure of safe zones where students coalesce into tiny little groups, striking a defensive pose, their fingers pressed firmly in their ear canals and their tongues and lungs clacking out NANANANANAs like a bunch of mewling infants. Ah milennials. This week, a conservative speaker critical of modern feminism was the latest victim of the new campus culture:
A student group at Williams College that hosts speakers who challenge the campus’s biases has rescinded a speaking invitation to Suzanne Venker, a conservative author and vocal critic of feminism, in response to furious condemnation from other students.
The decision to disinvite Venker is steeped in irony, given that the group’s lecture series is called “Uncomfortable Learning,” and the sole reason for ditching Venker seems to be that she was a good fit.
In an embarrassing turn of events, the left wing radicals who demanded more ideological diversity on campus have all but shut it down now that they’re running the show. Their complete domination of the academy has lead to what was once controversial becoming the conventional wisdom. It’s amazing that now that these former radicals are the empowered unversity establishment, they’ve conveniently abandoned their commitment to ideological diversity in favor of die hard left wing indoctrination. What good is truth when you have ideology?
