Today, a white progressive university president and Chancellor resigned because a group of spoiled special snowflakes had their feelings hurt by his insufficient supplication to the idol of racism.
Seriously, this is all because a student claimed some people in the back of a pick-up called him a racial slur, and the University president, apparently, did not respond adequately. The issued a list of demands.
The students also demanded increasing black faculty and staff; mandatory racial awareness and
inclusionindoctrination curriculum for all staff, faculty and students; and additional funding and resources for mental health professionals, particularly those of color, to boost campus programming and outreach to students.
So, basically, they demanded that he do what his university and every other liberal-run university in the country is already doing.
But, whatever. The Left is learning they have built a monster; one that will be impossible to appease or placate. The more they surrender, the more emboldened the monster becomes. The Democrat Party *cannot* say no to these radicals. They have constructed this trap that all #BlackLivesMattergrievances and demands must be given absolute legitimacy no matter how radical. No matter how they look to the sane part of America, they have to cater to the radical #BLM left.
Update: David French: Missouri’s Lesson: the Campus Wars Are about Power, Not Justice: “This is a movement built from the ground up around power and coercion. They hate free speech because free speech represents nothing but a threat — a chance for dissenters to expose the bankruptcy of their ideas. They hate due process because due process stands in the way of class-based justice, of identity-based jurisprudence.”
I wonder if business demands for more immigration is partly driven by this nonsense.
I honestly can’t imagine what it would be like to operate a business staffed by these hair-trigger time bombs. You’d have to have an enormous HR department to deal with the never-ending stream of grievances over every little slight, real and imagined. I doubt the average nursery school puts up with temper-tantrums and whining on this scale.
Of course foreigners learn the ropes at ethnic grievance mongering soon enough so that supply is drying up, too.
The automation business is looking good.
V, we’ve discussed this before, and I know it’s hard to accept, but you’re still embracing empty name-calling over substance: “”Democrat Party” is a political epithet used in the United States for the Democratic Party. The term has been used in negative or hostile fashion by conservative commentators and members of the Republican Party in party platforms, partisan speeches and press releases since at least 1940.

“They have constructed this trap that all #BlackLivesMattergrievances and demands must be given absolute legitimacy no matter how radical”
BLM: “Police: Stop shooting and beating minorities for no cause”
Conservatives: “Enough with your radical demands!”
@hmm_contrib, you need to update your knowledge of #BlackLivesMatter .
They boo and scream when you say All Lives Matter.
They chant for the death of cops.
They continue to propagate the “Hands Up; Don’t Shoot” lie.
They don’t care when a black cop is shot by a white assailant.
I could go on.
These people will never get a decent job IF they graduate from college. Their whininess and childishness are not good traits as an adult.

And, of course, Democratics never call Republicans “a political epithet “, right?
Notice I used the preferred term “Democratics”.
Someone should have sent that CUCK a copy of SJWs Always Lie, or at least the free surviving SJW attack from Vox Day’s site. He should have shut down the football program for 2 years, fired the coach, forfeited 2 years of game and that would have ended the football careers of all involved. That CUCK will never get another comparable job.

So basically what happened:
Some random unknown person called a student a name.
University chancellor fails to burn entire town in revenge for this slight.
Students run chancellor out of town on a rail.
Yeah, real logical.
Was a time that screaming girl in the video would have been suspended or expelled for such behavior on campus.
I’m hearing rumors that this was a faculty-led coup against the university president and chancellor, and the “protesters” were just useful idiots and pawns in the faculty’s scheme.
There is an Spanish saying that goes “Cria Cuervos y Te Sacaran Los Ojos” (Raise crows and they’ll peck your eyes out. )
I predict a lot of old SJWs going blind in the future.
@9. It sounds like Loftin had some real problems in multiple areas for more than a year.

I live in Missouri. It’s stereotyped, like Kansas, as the quintessential redneck conservative Bible Belt state, but it’s infested with liberals… I fervently hope we don’t ‘make headlines’ as much next year as we have this year….
Did you hear about this one?

“So basically what happened:

Nope
Many slurs and slights and the university president ignored the student groups.
He continued to ignored student groups complaints.
Then the athletes – many of them happen to be African American – said screw this, we are not playing for a University who marginalizes African Americans
That made the university tremble in fear because Athletics = Money.
The lesson to be learned here is Athletes Rule, everyone else doesn’t matter. This has nothing to do with Students, faculty or anything else. Just Money and the power of the Athletic Department in Universities.

little-letter mike has a point: football wags the university.
What should have happened here is that the football coach who egged on his players should have been fired. The players that refused to play would have their “scholar”ships revoked since football is the only reason most of them are “students”.
I’m not sure what the students think the college administration is supposed to do when they are offended (which is all the time). There was a time when people brushed off minor slights. Hell, grade-schoolers were told to ignore minor slights.
Ah yes, marginalized.
So the football team by itself is 75% black.
These black athletes receive free tuition, free housing, free food, free medical care, free travel with luxury accomodations, free clothing and shoes, free publicity, easy courses, easy treatment in courses, and more — all for playing a game that they allegedly enjoy for four years.
And they whine and cry and whimper about how “marginalized” they are.
They are lazy spoiled-brat racists, and they need to be called out as such.
Also, watching Mikey scream is hilarious. Mikey is a bigot who calls for Christians to be mocked and marginalized and supports calls by his fellow bigots for gay and lesbian conservatives to be deemed Nazis and to kill themselves, and yet insists that this is all “deserved”.
What the pathetic racist Mikey is acknowledging is that black people are mentally crippled and incapable of dealing with things, and that’s why they need white liberals like Mikey to think for them and keep them safe on welfare plantations.
if Mikey really cared about black people, he would be encouraging them to be self-sufficient. Instead Mikey makes it clear that black people are helpless and stupid and need white liberals to think for them and tell them what to do. Even more hilariously, Mikey demonizes successful black people like Ben Carson and Condi Rice and calls them stupid and race traitors for not being on welfare like he says black people should be.
As far as Mizzou’s football team, one could say that the *inmates* really are running the
