As American colleges and universities are under fire for censorship and an assault on the First Amendment, an Ivy League graduate who is also a North Korea defector is speaking out against the schools as more “nuts” than the hermit nation. Yeonmi Park is one of several hundred North Korean defectors now living in the United States after transferring to Columbia University.
Park said that once she began attending classes at the elite school she was immediately alarmed by what she was learning.
According to Fox News:
“I expected that I was paying this fortune, all this time and energy, to learn how to think. But they are forcing you to think the way they want you to think,” Park said in an interview with Fox News. “I realized, wow, this is insane. I thought America was different but I saw so many similarities to what I saw in North Korea that I started worrying.”
Those similarities include anti-Western sentiment, collective guilt and suffocating political correctness.
Park recalled a moment during orientation when she was scolded by a university staff member for enjoying the work of famous writers like Jane Austen.
“I said ‘I love those books.’ I thought it was a good thing,” recalled Park.
“Then she said, ‘Did you know those writers had a colonial mindset? They were racists and bigots and are subconsciously brainwashing you.’”
“Even North Korea is not this nuts,” she said. “North Korea was pretty crazy, but not this crazy.”
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience. God help America.
Not surprised at all…….I hope Ivy League schools die on the vine……Their time has passed…..
This exactly what the Red Scare was over in the 1950’s. The Democrat Party is anti-america and pro-communist. They constantly divide the people to cause the nation to collapse. They assault the second because it’s harder to seize power by force if the people are armed.
So refuse to disarm. Simply solution
Democrat is CATHOLIC …… R and D mean nothing. It is a thing done by CATHOLIC TRAITORS. Look south for proof…. Invade, dominate, conquer, then eliminate. (Be CATHOLIC “C” or be dead). The ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC “C” INVADERS are ALL here illegally! Pelosi, ( CATHOLIC “C” traitor) recently said that there are more than 60 million ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC “C” INVADERS in the USA. Head ’em up. Send ’em ‘home’. Vote for ANY CATHOLIC “C” and the wall will never happen. Vote for ANY CATHOLIC “C” and the ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC “C” INVADERS will never go ‘home’.
What are you actually saying? Catholics are not the enemy! Pelosi and Biden are fake Catholics— actually they are trying to subvert and change the Catholic faith to suit their own agenda.
Gee, what an embarrassment, the U.S. has a more stringent indoctrination system than N. Korea. Please, everyone, wake-up and vote these communist fools out of office any chance you get at every level of government!
We can’t until we have a fair election process.
I thought Elvis had left the building. Are you back… if so, how long this time?
Agree 100%. We need to get rid of Democra t s.
Democrat is CATHOLIC …Bideni is CATHOLIC… Pelosi is CATHOLIC.. Kerry is CATHOLIC The SCOTUS is CATHOLIC. It is almost too late.
Actually, practicing Catholics are more likely to be Republicans, or at least conservatives. It is the phony Catholics like Biden, Pelosi and Kerry that all seem to be Democrats.
Then YOU and everyone else reading this needs to run for office starting with the local school boards. Unless/until we take back our local schools, the universities will continue their brain washing and leftist indoctrination. Our children have to be educated at a young level how to think and question and that includes taking them to church and Sunday School so they can learn how dangerous these anti-God leftists/Democrats/socialists/George Soros anarchists really are!
