America’s Institutions of Higher Learning: The Idiot Factory

Did you know our public universities are producing idiots?

PajamasTV’s Steven Crowder goes undercover exposing UC Berkeley’s liberal bias and the indoctrination underway in its classrooms. You won’t believe the hilarious and alarming interactions Steven has with the Berkeley students.

You’ll notice that the most popular president on the campus of UC Berkley is Abraham Lincoln (probably the most hard-to-miss president in U.S. history).  Most aren’t sure what political party he belonged to.

(Remember, these are college-educated people at a top-rated university–explains a lot, doesn’t it?)

When it comes to the Great Depression (wow!), you know, “the first one,” there isn’t a wealth of knowledge about its causes at this high-rated institute of higher learning.

There is also a dearth of knowledge about firearms and the Second Amendment.

Here’s one of my favorites: “The Second Amendment was written in a very different time, socially. It was a time when people lived mostly rural lives, and it was also a time after a huge rebellion against an ‘unjust’ government.”  When Crowder asks him about his gesture of quotations around “unjust,” the kid replies, “There were some pressures put on the American people that maybe were unjustified but I also think that those revolutionary people in American history were maybe blowing those issues up a little more.”

There you have it from the young voice of the Left: the United States shouldn’t even be here, because the founders made a mountain out of a molehill. (I wonder if he’s read the Declaration of Independence for himself).

This would actually explain a lot about liberals.  If they look at the abuses of the people by a king thousands of miles away and say “Chill, bruh,” then perhaps it’s no wonder they look at the abuses of our own government and its attacks on freedom and say, “What’s the big deal, dude?”

(Don’t forget to look at some of the ultra-Leftist tshirts on some of these recipients of too much of someone else’s hard-earned money):

I taught these folks every day at a more liberal campus than Berkley (but a job is a job) It was kind of amusing to me, and probably you, to note that I was the the "neo-facist, rightwing extremist racist prof". This despite the fact I was dating a black English lit  prof at the time very publically, but that didn't count apparently. Hell, everyone here knows how right wing I am and the students figured it out. I repeatedly asked for a a few thousand dollars for shock collars for my Intro to American Gov't 101 in budget meetings (No BS I actually did make the request in my budget forms for Tri-tronics collars  at $300 a pop, just to get my department head's attention. I got it and she was not amused, though I and a couple of my fellow junior profs sure as hell were. ), but I was denied. Finally, I settled for asking for $5 to buy a 2x4 from Lowes (plus $1 for cutting to size). This was also denied. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink, and you can't beat the "poop" out of it till it sees sense (for being too stupid to live), because the lawyers get all pissy. Its hard to be a prof sometimes, because with some students you can't teach until you "get their attention" first (plus 10 to anyone who remembers that joke).

*I saw a bumper sticker the other day that read:

PROFESSORS
Almost as worthless as politicians.

 When I hear some brilliant comment like "Custer deserved to die for invading India" I know I'm dealing with a College Grad.
AS to "the joke" FQ I've used it here before.
