This is what cultural suicide looks like.

Black feminist lesbian mother-effin’ poet

Clearly a better choice than Shakespeare.

For some reason, whenever I hear the word “inclusive”, I want to jam the end of a baseball bat into the mouth of the person saying it.

Stupid gas. It must be created by some marine creature that breeds in coastal waters. If you don’t spill a bit of oil in there, it overpopulates and creates toxic clouds of stupid gas. It’s hoped that global warming will destroy this species.

OK, let’s get real racist here.

Historically speaking, what races have the greatest percentage of scientists, inventors, adventurers, explorers, military geniuses, artists, & medical researchers? I’d say those falling into the Caucasian and Asian races.

While the above named types were doing their deeds, what races were still operating at the tribal level with near stone age technology?

How about in today’s modern era. Which races do the most to pull the cart, and which ones are more apt to be riding in the cart or just wanting it to stop?

I’m sick of the racist crap. We cannot help what race we are, but we can better ourselves simply by trying to be better.

What’s the origin of “Snowflakes?” Is it that they’re northerners? They melt easily?

That Shakespeare dude is like, soooo prehistoric... We need to honor and teach our children the significant works of more contemporary classic poets...

It is time to stop funding public colleges and universities. Exceptions for medicine and engineering. These places are no different than a junk yard guarded by gang bangers an pit bull dogs. And in saying that I may be insulting a few nice dogs.

English departments in general and Penn in particular have been left wing kook city for a long time.

At a local university, the English department announced a plan to replace teaching Shakespeare with more diverse offerings (25 years ago). My friend then announced he would then be teaching Shakespeare from his position in the Computer Science department. The English department backed down immediately, they had to defend their turf doncha know, dolts.

Banning it just means the kids are going to read it at home, in secret.

In 1951, the SF author, Cyril M. Kornbluth (C M Kornbluth) wrote a novella of the future titled “The Marching Morons”. The premise was a future where the low intelligence population vastly outnumbers a working and functional intelligent elite who are forced to labor mightily to keep society functioning.

Now, I fear that we are seeing this in action. Whilst we may be deluded about the intelligence of these ‘precious snowflakes’, their worth and endurance is yet to be tested and the preliminary tests, like this one, are not promising! To invoke a meme, this has all of the aspects of the inmates taking over the asylum, only in this case, the adults of the institution are not resisting but instead aiding and abetting!

The idiocy of this individual action demonstrates the error of the disconnect between short term satisfaction of the internal morons in (symbolically) replacing Shakespeare and the longer term of detriment for the graduates when they demonstrate palpable ignorance at common usage of quotes by the same. Thus, unless they volunteer for remedial education, they will be subject to that ‘ill wind’ that will sweep them out to be replaced with the knowledgable!

My alma mater. I wonder if Wharton has removed Donald Trump’s portrait from its Wall of Fame, like it did with Michael Milken’s?

Then everyone should get free credit for British Literature or cancel it off their required classes. Oh, no, wait, can’t do that because the college wants the tuition that comes from the course and it’ll tick off students when they try to transfer without the basics.

And it becomes clearer each and every day that the movie IDIOCRACY was actually a documentary.
