Republican Uber Allies

Seems those fun-loving Republicans at Santa Rosa Junior College decided to tape red stars to the doors of their professors who they deemed too liberal or, as they said, engaged in "teaching communist propaganda."

Leave it to an arrogant twentysomething to spit on the grave of history with such an offensive gesture. But here's a novel free-market, anti-nanny state idea that most Republicans honor, asshole: if you don't like what they teach at Santa Rose Junior College, PATRONIZE ANOTHER FUCKING SCHOOL.

A guy I know who teaches at the University of Wyoming in Laramie told me that, in response to faculty who had small stickers on their office windows (rainbows, I think) which meant that they were supportive of glbt students, other faculty started posting anchor stickers on their office windows, meaning that they were allied with conservative students...so that the conservative students could have a place where they felt safe and accepted.

"...so that the conservative students could have a place where they felt safe and accepted."

Don't they already have the whole country in which to feel safe & accepted?

Exactly, maktaaq. What the anchor stickers were really for was to intimidate the other students. Grrrr.

How horrid. I've never felt so sorry for my American friends as I do now.

You know, I have a cousin in Atlanta, used to be the biggest slut ever and somehow now she's a super anti-abortionist and super mommy. How do people change so much? What is the attraction to these false "family values"? I mean, my cousin is only 25 and she has been in mommy mode since she was 18.

Where did my fun cousin go? I really feel like I'll never get her back. I can't even meet her anymore because she keeps bringing up the abortion thing (she knows I am with the enemy or something).

I'm so glad my family immigrated to Canada instead...

Well, the US has never been overtly liberal. Even in our periods of progressive ideas, we've always lagged behind the Europeans (and Canadians), regardless of what the history books say about us being the frontrunner of freedom and democracy. We're not that far from the communist witch hunts of the 50s, really, or the televanglism of the 80s. The 90s seem almost like a fluke. I remember graduating from college in 94 and thinking that there was no turning back; progressive issues were here to stay.

And a lot of them have stayed: organic foods, yoga, meditation, fuel-economical cars. Yes, they're all here to stay more because of their market value than their ideals, but at least they're here.

Plus any fool knows the election was rigged.
