A bunch of Washington University students were shut down on the 20-year anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. It’s a conservative group – go figure – that built a gulag complete with prisoners, guards and barb wire.
Yeah. The school shut it down.
Here’s the video explaining how they were shut down because “the staff said it was offensive and that things weren’t really that bad in the Soviet Union.”
Gee. I wonder if those staff members were liberal. Perplexing….
Nice double-standard, libs. I’m sure this would’ve been shut down as quickly had it been a rally against the war or that “hatemongering” Bush you all love so much.
“I am offended therefore I am!”
Which is nothing more than thinly disguised fascism to silent free speech. As to it being not that bad…How would they know? Were they there?
So much for freedom.
This is a very weird time in America. We’re actually living in a time when Conservatives are the counter-culture troublemakers and Liberals are establishment apologists.
How bizarre is this? The idea that making some big protest on a college campus that insults communists is somehow offensive is just baffling.
So, what next? Groups of conservative college kids banding together to protest in favor of the free market and individualism? And what happens, they get run off campus by cops and the National Guard? Wild bands of kids somehow stealing tax dollars and giving them back to those who earned the money?
What strange times.
The LEFT…REJECTING PROTESTS…
WTF!!?
MD: The left is just mad that the right has co-opted their tactics and improved them.
