Every so often, Richard Dawkins hits the target. Here’s his take on the junior jackboots of Asshat U

Patchy Ausstechformen Washington Times:

“There seems to be a tendency among some students – perhaps the less intelligent – to suppress free speech,” Mr. Dawkins said in an interview with the Australian on Monday. “I hope it doesn’t last long.” More.

There are two reasonable opinions about whether the SJWs are dim. Some would say they know how to get on very well after the collapse of the traditional humanities, and aim at careers in enforcement of Correctness of some kind. Of course, one hardly need be a genius for that. In fact, a lack of genuine curiosity is a great asset.

But what’s this about “doesn’t last long”? It’s the wave of the future.

Few universities have taken a stand against the destruction.

The SJW "revolution" if you can call it that, is what's bringing atheists and reasonable theists together, actually. Here's a guy on Youtube that I actually agree with when it comes to his assessment of SJW nonsense at universities: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXIT5w_k4mA But his humanist perspective is completely in left field, if you know what I mean. There's at least some cognitive dissonance. Dawkins, for example would silence Christians, and take away their children, if he had his way.CannuckianYankee

Its a prediction come true, jUst like in the French revolution. they started head chopping EVERYONE. Dawkins has been on the chopping block. They turn against thier own. I'm sure, not really sure, that Dawkins being british would support all sorts of speech control . However the empire goes too fat and loses credibility. I do think the PC crowd will ruin their empire. Thats why the good guys should support crazy controls on speech in order to stop all of them. Not just clean it up. No one ever fought or cared about free speech. Its about important truths that must have free speech to allows important truths to be pointed out and fought for. Free speech is only a tool. We must demand the complete right to the truth. Then demand the vtools for it. yet crying about free speech will be ignored especially if the bad guys see thier truth threatened by free speech. Free speech is not a natural right but a contract. God said in the TEN Commandments NO to free speech on certain matters. Demand the goal of free speech and then the contract for it. Maybe Dawkins, being famous, can help.Robert Byers
