The course’s name strikes you as being the immediate problem here.

But whiteness is NOT an immutable trait people are born with. It is a made-up social construct specifically designed to be exclusionary to protect the property, $, and power of some. How is that not a problem? Whiteness has been a problem from the very moment we thought it up—and I’m sure that is what this class talks…

Bingo. The GOP is apparently very enthusiastically joining in with the agenda of the extreme right racist scum of the “Alt right”, a.k.a. dumb fuck neo-Nazis. I guess Republicans really are just a bunch of bigots after all, no matter how much they try to dress themselves up as just wanting lower taxes and smaller…

I don’t really have a problem with the name, but it’s like the college course equivalent of clickbait. Most people who’ll take it will probably go in like “Oh, this’ll probably be about the institutionalized white power structure and it’s pervasive racial oppression throughout the western world”, but a republican…

The university should make it a required course.

“Whiteness” is a construct designed by a particular group of people in order to exclude particular other groups and deny them their rights. It has been used to mean or to exclude a variety of people of varying skin tones and ethnic backgrounds, depending on what was convenient at the time. “Blackness” is also a social…

Yeah, it’s almost as if you have to think more deeply about what the phrase means instead of taking it at its most literal interpretation. Like a university student.

Not just university courses, but bike lanes! From Steve Nass’ wiki page:

Well this is what we need. Politicians without degrees making determinations about course offerings at universities.

Just another coward demanding the whole world be his safe space.

Are these the same kind of dudes who cry about university ‘safe spaces’ and how we shouldnt filter out difficult conversations?

That part gets me too... The FBI CALLS the IT dept at the DNC just down the street from them to say they are detecting a hack but couldn’t prove to the IT guy they were legit the FBI over the phone (which you can’t) and then doesn’t bother going down there when IT guy eventually doesn’t return VM what seemed like a…

The FBI also had several agents out in the field trying to crack Hillary’s email server for more emails yet were too busy to go over to the DNC and talk to anyone in person after the DNC reported being hacked.

Adding to that is after many months the FBI had not even gotten around to interviewing the minor who is the subject of the Weiner investigation until the same day Comey sent the letter to congress about possible Clinton (staff) emails that he had no legal authority yet to review without said subpoena not filed until…

Is the resistance a real thing that will have an organized mission and structure, or is it just code for angry Tweeting / commenting for the next 4 years?

There was no probable cause for this warrant in the first place: this was a hunch-driven warrant, coming out of a reactionary element in the FBI. So there’s that.

Lest we not forget, Comey read all the classified intel about Russia’s hacking and said there wasn’t enough evidence to go public and that to do so would make it look like partisan.

The media because they would not stop covering it, speculated endlessly how it is damaging to Clinton, and then, what do you know, it was damaging. Yet, the ceaseless firehose of shit coming from the Tromp transition is covered lightly and is just “doing things differently” - who cares about self-dealing and…

Comey. FBI isn’t supposed to push partisan agenda like this. I wasn’t shocked by Chaffetz’ actions, though that still doesn’t make it any less repugnant. Also the media’s handeling of this complete non-story was also absolutely repugnant. Media catching Clinton derangement syndrome and losing all objectivity this…

Comey, because he had to at least pretend to maintain he works outside of politics. I’d expect that from Chaffetz because he’s a little shit weasel and partisan Republican.
