Everyone liberals don’t like is a Nazi. Because he has exposed Big Government’s counterproductive wastefulness through DOGE, they don’t like Elon Musk. Consequently, Musk is a Nazi. As evidence, Experts from Rice University proclaim that his Tesla Cybertruck reminds them of the Casspir vehicles formerly used to maintain public order in South Africa.

Squawk professors Vivian Chenxue Lu and Nana Osei-Opare:

“[T]he Cybertruck’s harsh, sharp edges remind us […] of something from the past: the larger armored personnel vehicles that patrolled streets throughout Musk’s youth in apartheid South Africa.”

Casspirs were allegedly “an iconic global symbol of apartheid oppression.” Now Cybertrucks symbolize global oppression, because Musk is a fascist for helping rein in government hypertrophy.

Compounding racist oppression, such vehicles have been used to quell race riots in the USA:

Lu and Osei-Opare note the Casspir was part of the “spectacular use of force” shown in Ferguson, Missouri during Black Lives Matter protests.

The nutty professors denounce Cybertrucks as “masculinist” and “individualist.” No wonder moonbats feel compelled to attack them.

Taxpayers are forced to subsidize corrosive brainwashing by kooks of this caliber. If only DOGE could be applied to academia.

We are past the point where genuine liberalism can be distinguished from even the most outrageously over-the-top parody. Actual title of a peer-reviewed article published in a scholarly journal:

From the abstract:

This article offers a queer lesbian feminist analysis attuned to lesbian-queer-trans-canine relationalities … interconnected queer becomings of people, nature, animals, and machines amidst ecologies of love and violence … state instrumentalization of dogs and robot dogs for racialized and imperial violence … quotidian queer and lesbian-dog relationalities and becomings… queer lesbian feminist critique of white supremacy and militarization … lesbian, non-binary, and trans-dog intimacies … queer worlds for gender, sexual, and kin becomings … complexities of queer and lesbian feminist worldbuilding. Lesbian and queer feminist cyborg politics can help theorize the potentials and challenges of these interspecies entanglements.

Read the whole abstract here.

The author appears to be a real person:

Chloe Diamond-Lenow is an Assistant Professor in Women’s and Gender Studies at SUNY Oneonta. She uses the pronouns “she/they” and teaches courses informed by practices of queer care…

SUNY is a state university system, luxuriating in even more coerced support from taxpayers than private universities.

Her research interests include feminist and queer theory, race and empire, cultural studies, postcolonial animal studies, transnational sexuality studies, and LGBTQ studies.

Academia desperately needs its own DOGE.

The many advantages of racial privilege include exemption from vaccine mandates. From 2020:

“Students who identify as Black, Indigenous, or as a Person of Color (BIPOC) may have personal concerns about fulfilling the Compact requirements based on historical injustices and current events,” explains Cornell Health’s vaccine requirement FAQ.

So they could request a racial exemption.

As always where moonbattery prevails, favored groups get special treatment on the patently absurd grounds that they are oppressed. Drones Ivy League Cornell:

We recognize that, due to longstanding systemic racism and health inequities in this country, individuals from some marginalized communities may have concerns about needing to agree to [COVID-19 testing and flu vaccine] requirements.

Caucasians have had concerns too. But their concerns don’t matter, because they are “oppressors” according to woke dogma.

Considering the questions surrounding the Covid jab and the likelihood of another pandemic being in the works, a policy like Cornell’s — if rigorously implemented — might one day allow liberals to achieve their dream of a world without white people.

Dismantling the pernicious Department of Education is only the beginning. Leftist domination of schools is also a problem at the local level:

Students at Fleetwood Elementary School in Mount Laurel, New Jersey are scheduled to attend a field trip to the Alice Paul Center for Gender Justice.

The center used to be about women’s suffrage. But the 19th Amendment isn’t exactly news these days, so the mission was expanded:

The center announced that they would advocate for “people of all oppressed gender identities.”

Proclaims its website:

“We acknowledge that trans, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming people have the right to self-identify their gender freely and without anxiety.”

Those who identify as sexually deranged have a right not to feel anxiety. It follows that the government should secure this right by suppressing anyone who makes these special people feel uncomfortable by failing to affirm their perverse delusions.

The field trip potentially submersing children in this ideology targets second graders, typically aged 7–8 years.

The notice that was sent home to moms and dads had very clear instructions: “There will be no parent chaperones for this trip.”

Mysteriously, children were also instructed to bring “cash only.”

As important as parent chaperones for excursions is the placement of cameras in all classrooms, so that parents can access online video at their discretion, until such time as education is pried completely loose from government and the free market is permitted to purge it of corruption.

The first qualification of a law professor ought to be support for a stable society under rule of law. Yet some advise defiance of lawful directives from the President:

Law professors from several different universities banded together to write a memo calling Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) “mission critical” and urging schools to not follow President Donald Trump’s anti-DEI directives.

The memo, issued on Feb. 20, was signed by law professors from the University of California, Berkeley, New York University, University of Washington, and Boston University, to name several.

Law professor Peter Arenella of UCLA takes peevishness further, calling for a military coup:

“At this point, my only hope for the US to avoid becoming an ally to Russia is a violent resistance by our military. Tragic to say that because the military are trained to avoid any politically motivated intervention,” the professor said of the democratically elected president.

Hilariously, the insurrectionist then accuses Trump of trying to “destroy our democracy.” But I’m forgetting; when liberals say, “our democracy,” they mean “Democrat rule.”

The term “climate justice” strikes the normal ear as woke duckspeak, if not moonbattery sarcastically pushed to the point of parody. That’s because normal people are uninitiated in the credenda of progressivism. “Climate justice” has a meaning, but it is only comprehensible through advanced indoctrination. For that, we have institutions like the University of Sussex:

The BA in Climate Justice, Sustainability and Development, which will begin in 2026, will equip students with a unique blend of expertise in climate politics, activism, and environmental human rights. This will be combined with the practical green skills – the know-how and abilities needed to work in ways that help protect the environment – needed to drive real-world change.

It’s nice to know educrats have their feet firmly planted on the ground and will offer “practical green skills” so that graduates can impose their will on climate fluctuation.

Kidding aside, the practical application of such a degree is to secure a career as a bureaucrat. Sussex grads can be thankful they don’t have DOGE over there.

Barks Geert De Neve, Head of the School of Global Studies at Sussex:

“This course … will provide a unique opportunity for students to combine their passion for tackling the climate crisis with the skills and knowledge required to lead in the fight for sustainability and justice. It reflects Sussex’s long-standing commitment to educating students who can drive positive global impact.”

They will have no impact on the climate, which will fluctuate regardless of the fashionable left-wing poses they strike. But as future bureaucrats, they can aspire to impact the future by deepening Europe’s economic malaise through ever more punitive regulation of the energy sector.

Even without spending years of time and tens of thousands of pounds, Sussex is willing to provide a hint regarding what “climate justice” means:

Climate justice, the focus of this course, addresses social equity, historical responsibility, and economic shifts in climate change. Emerging from civil society movements in the 2000s, it now shapes debates in the UK Parliament and UN. It is crucial for policymakers, NGOs, activists, and businesses.

Science is not mentioned because this is a BA, not a BS, despite being comprised entirely of BS. Climate justice has nothing to do with science; it is a means of imposing left-wing globalism.

Normally taxpayers don’t get much in return for the money we have showered upon Hamas since the horrific 10/7 atrocities via the Biden Administration and USAID. But at least the demonic terror group has done us a service by alerting us to evil festering within our own society.

The truly wicked cannot help but support Hamas, thereby exposing themselves as malevolent and insane. Examples abound on campus, both here and in the UK:

The London School of Economics has defended its decision to stage the launch of a book at its Middle East Centre which claims Hamas has been wrongly “vilified and demonised” since carrying out the 7 October massacre.

Authors Helen Cobban and Rami G Khouri make the case for Hamas as the good guys in Understanding Hamas and Why That Matters.

The book claims branding Hamas “as ‘terrorist’ or worse,” has meant “demonisation intensified after the events in Southern Israel on October 7, 2023.”

The unenlightened reacted narrow-mindedly to women and children being systematically raped, tortured, and murdered so as to advance Islam at the expense of Western Civilization.

Promoting the event on the LSE website, it is claimed Hamas has been “subjected to intense vilification” in mainstream Western discourse as a result of the classification in many Western states as a proscribed terrorist group.

The heart bleeds.

The 10 March launch also features a line-up of other academic speakers who have condemned Israel and Zionism and criticised attempts to portray Hamas as “irrational terrorists”.

Students pay big bucks to steep in this intellectual environment, even at taxpayer-supported public universities like LSE.

The reason college professors make such good money (largely at the expense of taxpayers and often for relatively little work) is that they have a special skill. Even after the envelope of moonbattery has been pushed over the edge into self-parody, they find creative ways to push it further still.

Presenting an abstract published by professors at University of San Diego and North Carolina State University:

Amplifying the importance of geologic processes in subject formation, the study asserts that geological time is important for understanding memory and memorials. In the Equal Justice Initiative’s Community Remembrance Projects and the National Memorial for Peace and Justice, materials of geologic composition like soil, and those made from earth materials, such as steel and bricks, are employed to trope the bodies of lynching victims and weather racist geologic formations of subjecthood. The holding and eroding of violent memories crafts an intimate and resistant geopoetics of Black humanity.

Whatever you major in, there is only one subject in college these days: moonbattery. Geology is now about how much liberals hate America. In an interview, two of the authors provide a glimpse into their classrooms by giving a history lesson:

In the US, white people killed Black people who wanted to be free, to be treated equal and to build a community for themselves. White people wanted to be more powerful than the Black people and use them to make money, so they would sometimes kill some of them to scare their friends and family. This was wrong and created a lot of pain. It’s important that we remember and honor the lives of the people who were killed. It’s also important to help the communities who experienced this violence heal. Our research is about how people can use rocks to heal from this horrible history.

If BDSM can heal blacks from the wounds of whiteness, why not rocks?

The school board that walked out of a meeting when parents objected to kindergarteners being exposed to indecent LGBT material now prohibits public comments at meetings — because racism.

As reported by The Daily Wire, residents in Penfield, New York, tried to raise concerns at a school board meeting on Tuesday about an explicit LGBT book out on display at the school’s elementary library, called “The Rainbow Parade,” which is about a young girl with two mothers who take her to a Pride Parade.

Illustrations include nudity, drag queens, and the S&M bondage gear so popular in the gay community.

However, the board walked out on parents before public comments began, telling attendees they must submit written complaints only.

Now, the board representing Penfield Central School District has barred public comment at all meetings for the months ahead.

The suppression of dissent at Board of Education meetings is necessary so as to “work together restoring a positive environment in which respectful conversations can take place,” according to School Board President Emily Roberts. She cites racism on the grounds that…

…one of the board meeting attendees showed up [at the meeting] wearing a gorilla suit and a black “Make America Great Again” hat.

If the sort of people who run our schools ever consolidate control over the federal government, any public comment that deviates from the Democratic Party platform will be criminalized on the same basis.

For an idea of how well liberals are taking Trump’s success, let’s have a look in the classroom:

A teacher at an all-boys Catholic high school on Staten Island resigned after going on an anti-President Trump tirade during class that descended into calling one of his students a “punk a–” during an unhinged outburst, according to a recently leaked video clip.

The unnamed teacher at Monsignor Farrell High School was recorded last Wednesday by a student while speaking vehemently against Trump — criticizing the president’s order to release billions of gallons of water in California to fight the Los Angeles wildfires and labeling him a dictator…

Apparently the students did not receive his MSNBC-style rant with appropriate solemnity:

“I’m not kidding when I say, ‘Wipe that smile off your face.’ Detention, I just wrote you a referral mentally. You’re going to detention for bringing up politics in class,” the instructor aggressively yelled at a student at the private school.

Here’s a taste of what students are served:

The woke teacher will have a new job in a public school in no time with this on his résumé.

Formerly prestigious and ever more expensive Ivy League schools are lavishly subsidized by the federal government. No doubt this has accelerated their decay. But learning still takes place at them. For example, at Cornell, students can learn to pole dance at a Black History Month Workshop this February 25.

The event will be held in Willard Straight Hall by Pole Posse, which reveals that the blacks whose history is revered this month have plenty of company in the rapidly expanding cultural Marxist coalition of the oppressed. Their About Us page denounces the political incorrectness of those who view pole dancing as merely a form of exercise:

We believe that the active attempt to verbally cleanse pole dancing by separating it from its origins in sex work enacts violence upon this marginalized group. As a club, we refuse to indulge in this cleansing by exclusively invoking pole dancing as a fitness regimen which developed in a vacuum rather than one that came and comes from a systemically oppressed group and culture. We are committed to honoring this group and expressing the multitudes that exist within the craft of pole dancing while working in active opposition to individuals and systems that seek to harm this group.

Pole Posse is a registered student organization of Cornell University. If graduates can’t find anything else to do with degrees that cost $66,000 per year just for tuition and fees, they can always take up sex work.

New York Democrats enraged over Trump reigning in the federal Leviathan are falling back on their favorite standby — namely, taxation:

Gov. Kathy Hochul and US Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand warned that the possible Department of Education eradication President Trump has alluded to will cause property taxes to spike across the state. …

“This is $5.5 billion that the State receives annually from the Department of Education — $3.2 billion goes directly into our budget, $2.3 billion goes to localities. If that money is jeopardized, what I can tell you will happen, localities lose that money, they will have to raise taxes,” Hochul said.

You mean New Yorkers might have to pay to have their children corrupted and indoctrinated rather than educated instead of the rest of the country being forced to finance it? The horror!

Of course, New Yorkers would no longer have to finance the ruining of children’s minds in other parts of the country. But then, other parts of the country might not go along with the Department of Education’s leftist agenda after the federal Swamp has relinquished control of education. That’s what has Hochul so mad.

Never let a crisis go to waste, say the moonbats. Education Week calls for exploiting the Los Angles wildfires as a pretext to shirk work and then reinforce global warming brainwashing.

We were in no hurry to get teachers back to work after Covid, were we? Fear of “climate-related disasters” may “pose significant challenges for educators” by causing them to be frightened by doomsday rhetoric. This can “hinder their ability to deliver instruction effectively” and sometimes even “exacerbates teacher burnout.” So,

Efforts to return to normalcy for students often overlook or minimize the needs of educators, pushing them back into work mode before they may be ready to fully process and recover.

Speaking of doomsday rhetoric, the wildfires are not the only phenomenon moonbats are blaming on the global warming hoax, resulting in a generation of neurotic children:

Studies have shown that many young people hold fatalistic views about the future of the environment, which can heighten their anxiety, making it essential to engage them in constructive conversations about climate change. …

By fostering a sense of collective agency and providing opportunities to engage in climate solutions, we can help students combat these feelings, contribute meaningfully to the fight against climate change, and shape a more sustainable future.

To sum up, when they feel up to coming back to work, teachers must double down on the delusion that insufficient taxation and regulation cause Santa Ana winds to blow so that students can be recruited as fellow change agents a.k.a. moonbat myrmidons for California’s left-wing establishment.

Maybe it is for the best not to hurry kids back into their classrooms after all.

Something about Christianity rubs bad guys the wrong way — including the bad guys who dominate public schools.

In Connecticut, seventh grade teacher and grandmother of five Marisol Arroyo-Castro long drew solace from a crucifix hanging near her desk at DiLoreto Elementary & Middle School. But then:

After receiving a complaint from another district employee, the district directed her to either remove the crucifix completely or to put it out of sight — in her desk drawer or underneath her desk, by her feet…

“I wanted to give them what they wanted. I wanted them to be happy. So, I said, ‘Okay, I’ll move it,’” Castro told National Review. “When I picked it up in my hand and I was about to move it, I felt really guilty. I felt like I was sinning. I felt like I had to go to confession.”

When her conscience wouldn’t let her hide the crucifix, educrats suspended her. She is under pressure to quit her job.

This is rich:

The district’s superintendent, Tony Gasper, alleges in an email that having the crucifix visible near Castro’s desk “infringes on the religious freedoms of our diverse student population” and “violates both federal and state laws requiring public schools to remain neutral in religious matters.”

Because their ideology is evil, leftists must call what they are doing the opposite of what it is. Christianity is suppressed in the name of “religious freedoms.” Imposing intolerance is how they “remain neutral.”

If instead of the crucifix, Castro had displayed a flag encouraging children to embrace sexual depravity, she might have been promoted.
