Texas is for losers!

[Dagoth-Ur]

So you agree that both sides of the political spectrum aren't exactly harbingers of academic freedom.

Im Not going to allow the funding of an army against me. They have all the freedom they want, I’m just noting to pay for it.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

And colleges who refuse to knuckle under to the Orange Faced Tyrant get their funding cut. So much educational freedom.

That's only ok when the left does it, eh comrade?

 

[Failzero]

As a Texan, I agree. Unfortunately.

It started in the late 80's when ******* yankee communist corporations were being allowed to move from NY down here and set up shop.
Thats when the shit started hitting the fan, and when Texas started its decades slide into the cesspool of political degredation.

Back then, there were enough real Texans to fight off the stench and corruption of the yankee infestations. But over the decades, the newer generations of REAL Texans has become less, as the previous ones are too old to fight any longer. All this while these diseased yankee and West Coast pieces of shit slither into Texas and set up shop, with their corruption and disease, destroying everything they touch.

And our schools are no different. A&M did their best to fight off most of the WOKE brainwashing that went on, but it seems they are now failing at keeping the yankee disease at bay anymore.

No matter how liberal or conservative Texas is, it will still be a scorching hot-assed place I have no desire to live in.

Other than the Gulf surf fishing there is nothing of redeeming value there.

It's an odd combination of far right book banners and liberal shit-birds.

Always has been and always will be. Stupid open carry laws and education system dedicated to dumbing down their chilren.

At least most of their children know, there are only 2 genders.

Houston and Austin have been cancers on the face of Texas for decades now.
They need to be eradicated.

Opinion | Texas A&M told me not to teach these Plato excerpts. Here's what he wrote.

Martin Peterson: The Greek philosopher explicitly urged his students to seek the truth — even when it was uncomfortable or controversial. Universities should do the same.

In previous posts I have pointed out how extremely ignorant are the leaders of Texas. However, it did not dawn on me that one of its institutions of higher learning would not want to engage in higher learning but would rather further far, far right wing ideology as is practiced by today's so called "conservative" Republicans.

Texas is not a state engaged in academic freedom and freedom of thought. Those rights exist in Texas only if they meet the current requirements of far, far right ideology! And it's a disservice to their young people!

Bigly!!!

You make the place sound better and better with every sentence.

Based on the thread title, I’m assuming the OP just moved to Texas.

Well shit, there goes the neighborhood…











I KID!! I KID!!!!

All the big cities and universities are run by radical leftwing lunatics in Texas.

This is a very good point. People see Texas as a red state, but truthfully, all of the major cities are solidly blue. The only reason it’s red is because of the rural residents.

Weeeeeeeeeelllllll now, we DUZ love our drag queens.
ROFL

BUT there is a limit to that friendliness. It turns to resentment and anger if the gays get too preachy.
So, most of the time, when it comes to politics or gay sex stuff, they just shut the **** up.
Thats the only GOOD thing about gay culture in Texas. They got enough brains to know when to shut up or change the subject.

It's the same in several states. Take away the major cities in Minnesota and Illinois and they would be blue. Large metropolitan areas tend to attract those that want to "live off the system."

LOL. Thanks for the laugh. Everyone is leaving California and going to Texas. That just eats at your soul, doesn't it?

Yes Plato was a pedo and engaged in “boy love” a lot of those ancient Greeks did

We shoudnt be teaching students that was ok.

It was a philosophy class. Plato was one of the great philosophers.

 

[struth]

And I don’t believe he was told he couldn’t teach any Plato

 

[Zincwarrior]

He was told he could not for that portion of the course. BUT you are correct in that he could have just omitted that portion.

Texas has major issues with Closet Social Liberals LARPING as Republicans in their State House .
