Full disclosure...

Posted this on another place much earlier but worth the repeat as I think it says it all:

-----------------------------

York University lost it a long time ago.

All that happens by the year is it gets worse and worse.

Can’t understand why anybody would want to send their child there these days.

Then again, I suppose no longer unique to York University as Canada’s Universities have fallen big time.

Academic Freedom and openness is only applied to “the right” narratives and groups.

Conservatives, Free Speech types and those that still value principles of Democracy need not apply.

As for York’s Student Union…

Appropriate words for them should not be used in a civil forum.

Totalitarianism. Shut down all communication with the designated "enemy" so that the people you want to control cannot see that they share common interests with the "enemy". Then, demonize the "enemy".

Send your child to a nuts-and-bolts trade college to do practical stuff, because the future of Canada, and your child, depends on it.

The Arts, while to be commended in the distant past, is done for. It teaches only Brutalism of the spirit, mind and material world.

Especially if all the pseudo-intellectuals are to be replaced by AI

Yes, it's painful to read some of the AI nonsense. Almost as bad as the "logic" going around like a bad cold. Watch out for the AI text that's used to support major globalist businesses. It makes me agree with the notion that language is a virus.

And all the idiots out there watching the CBC are blaming Canada's problems on the "Boomers"!What a joke Canada and most Canadians have become, always blaming another group for their stupid failures. Canada is no longer a sovereign nation because of of the weak minded, brain washed, apathetic and compliant indoctrinated zombies. This lost country would be so much better off if the weak would stop doing as they are told and clean their own room first.

Apparently the students at York control the physical plant and the allowance of invited speakers and presentations at the U. Do they have the power to dismiss tenured professors if the course content isn’t politically left enough for their socialist minds?
