Despite the fact that Mohammad “was found to have an image of the ISIS flag, a handwritten manifesto with instructions on how to behead someone, and reminders to pray to Allah,” everyone who participated was sure that his stabbings had something to do with “images of masculinity” and nothing to do with Islam, and that only “Islamophobes” thought otherwise.

UCMercedEventThe “Don’t Turn Our Tragedy Into Hate” teach in, hosted by the critical race and ethnic studies faculty, focused in on subjects such as: “What does mental health have to do with this?”; “Why are men more likely to be perpetrators of violence?”; “How do we define our community – what lives are grievable?”; and “What do race and religion have to do with this?”

One speaker during the panel discussion delved into what she claimed was the quintessential example of manliness: “Middle class, able bodied, heterosexual, red meat, probably Christian,” she said, according to an audio recording of the event obtained by The College Fix.

“Anger, that is really what we think about when we think about emotional men,” she continued. “They are subject to social sanctions if they deviate from masculinity. If you are perceived as failing at it, you are subject to being called a fag, a pussy, a wimp, pretty much what women are, right?”

“So when you have this limited ability to sort of express your emotions and possible feelings of emasculation, of low self esteem, how do you really [deal with] that? A lot of times they … engage in violence. They need to compensate for their loss of masculinity in the most manly way ...

A UC Merced student who attended the teach in said he could not believe the school’s event blamed the stabbing spree on “masculinity” and completely downplayed radical Islam.

Delusional.

They got Faisal’s last name wrong. It is Mohammadman.

Have you notice that the war on the middle class, (that we know the left is all about but points the finger at everyone else) is more overt these days?

Whenever, wherever this is an opportunity, you see some leftist tool equating white/christian/middle-class with evil/aggressive/oppressive.

And suicidal.

What happened to the study group,rejection psychosis theory? Or did that go down the memory hole like the Benghazi film?

Now we know where to send several thousand “refugees.”

Liberalism is a terrible disorder that few ever rid themselves of.

[pacpam]

Anybody find out why he got kicked out of the study group? Starting the narrative at the stabbings misses the motive.

[Liberty Valance]

You sure this isn’t from the Onion?
