That one black guy started to put his hands on him, while he was saying don't push me more than once, and the other black guy had to come tell him not to do that anymore. I just heard on Petro that the 1950 mob released a tweet reversing and distancing themselves from the actions of the people on that video. To welcome media and keep focused on whats important. The problem is the damage has been done and you've undermined your cause before it could actually gain traction.

They aren't willfully ignorant- they're overtly dismissive.

They know full well what both lunatic fringes are trying to say (on the right and left), they just find it utterly absurd. And yes, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are two extremely bright, talented satirists. Just because their chosen medium is comedy rather than pithy single-pane comics in New Yorker doesn't mean substance is worth dismissing.

Your position requires such an ivory tower approach. You act as though anyone that disagrees with you is just not educated or intelligent enough to see why you're right. I went to a friggen liberal arts school for undergrad - I was immersed in the stuff. I read at least a few of the same books you've read that have led you to the conclusion that calling a black person 'articulate' is racist. I've actively rejected that bit of loaded nonsense because it's entirely too simplistic. It's base-level, dog-whistle horseshit that lazy people use because they don't feel like actually speaking to substance.

But again, that's progressive dogma. A person does a bad thing with guns - the 99% of those that would not do said bad thing shouldn't have guns. A person does a racist thing on a college campus - said college campus should institute a racial sensitivity course to make sure that nobody ever says a racist thing again (both comically overly broad and nowhere near narrowly tailored enough to be effective, but I digress).

It absolutely is Orwellian and it's not my fault that your chosen platform so neatly adheres to a label that makes you cringe. Now you've not made it all the way to "Some people are just more equal than others" by man oh man are you getting there and frankly, 1950 very clearly made it there already.

There's not much in this post that I actually disagree with, but your last sentence strikes me as far battier than anything Concerned Student 1950 has said or asked for.

Tyler Hunt is white.

Has Gary Pinkel made his experience on campus less enjoyable by not giving him the ball as often as other similarly qualified peers of a different race?

TO SENSITIVITY TRAINING! And while he's there, he will check his privilege.

So, yeah... this thread is completely ruined, eh?

Kinda the theme of the season, isn't it?

Evidently the hunger strike activist's family is worth 20 million.

Not saying that obviates his message but it does make his bitching about privilege a little ironic.

Although to be fair, I believe his stance was more towards the flat out racist remarks he himself had dealt with on campus than a "white privilege" issue. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what I remember from his story. Perhaps if I wasn't such an uncaring racist honky I would remember the finer details?

I didn't know it was a white kid...

He was more focused on the lack of reaction to Ferguson and a couple of racist incidents that didn't target him. He then referred to nebulous racism he had encountered.

So this guy was probably my favorite professor on campus - just a brilliant, brilliant guy:

http://truthonthemarket.com/2015/11/...zzou-students/

As he's almost certainly a better lawyer in his sleep than I am on my best days, it's not terribly surprising that a throwaway blog post of his does a better job succinctly stating some of the points I've been trying to make here.

And hey, Reaper - he's a gay guy so you can even read what he says without dismissing him! Isn't that exciting?
