Antifa Shuts Down College Event as Administrators Blame Republican Students
The Epoch Times ^ | January 24, 2022 | Alice Giodarno

Republican students at a New Hampshire Ivy League college say the school’s administration deserted them and made false and embarrassing allegations against them in order to avoid bad publicity by canceling an event under heavy protest by the far-left extremist group Antifa.

The live event scheduled at Dartmouth College was called “Extremism in America” and was to feature conservative personality Andy Ngo, who has been violently attacked by Antifa in the past.

Antifa and its sympathizers made several threats against the event including offering money to anyone who assaulted Ngo. A local group called Dartmouth Anarchists also posted violent insinuation about the event on social media, with one member tweeting: “So long as we stand, Dartmouth will never be a safe space for [right-wingers] to spew their misinformation. Wear black to show your solidarity and hide your identity!”

The event was hosted by Dartmouth College Republicans. The club’s president, Griffin Mackey, told The Epoch Times that local and state police were well prepared for the advent of any violence from the group and had a SWAT team in place before the event began.

"Antifa and its sympathizers made several threats against the event including offering money to anyone who assaulted Ngo."

I'm sure the FBI is right on that and Pelosi is demanding an investigative commission.

So, university administrators join politicians and thd gaslight media in gaslighting the public about the reasons for their actions.

I wonder if anyone is likely to reconsider whether a degree from one of these institutions is really worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in light of this revelation.

Dartmouth College needs to have their academic accreditation revoked.

“Antifa member Jonathan Dylan Chase offered money to anyone who managed to assault Ngo”

So Jonathan Chase can offer money for a hit on Ngo. FBI, police, where are you? Can we offer money for a hit on Christopher Wray or Garland? Equal protection, what a joke.

The REST of the story: Hide your identity to commit criminal acts.

I think all the white administrators in these Universities should have to appoint black educators in their place effective immediately.
This way they can prove they are racist and that they walk.
You would see a sudden change in these white elites attitudes if they were force to give up their positions to blacks who are not qualified , that most of us have had to put up with for the past 50 years in the real world.

The little people running the college approving mob rule.

Just think they are teaching the next generation. So much to look forward to, right?

Not cancelled, just moved online:
Virtual anti-Antifa event hosted by College Republicans moved online due to safety, logistical issues

The club hosted conservative journalist Andy Ngo and libertarian Gabriel Nadales for a discussion titled “Extremism in America.”
On Jan. 20, the Dartmouth College Republicans invited conservative journalist Andy Ngo and former Antifa member-turned libertarian activist Gabriel Nadales to speak at the College. The event was first slated to be held in person in Filene Auditorium in Moore Hall before it was moved to Zoom due to “safety issues,” according to College spokesperson Diana Lawrence.

So Dartmouth canceled an event on Extremist Violence by the Left because violent leftists threatened to use violence to stop it.

1930’s all over again.

The “Ivies,” have never been what they seemed to be but recently they have been working hard to show that they are communist cesspools.

I would never take a degree from an Ivy League university at face value. Research on courses, grades, clubs, friends and haunts should always be done.

The students should be able to file suit against Antifa.

Logically if democrat propaganda is to be believed an etho-state is the only path forward. Otherwise every other ‘minority’ will always be some how “oppressed” by their political enemies mere existances and theoretical power.

As with everything else Democrats accuse Republicans of they really do believe in etho nationalsim themselves. As it’s the only possible long term solutions to their supposed problems if any solution ever could exist.

Which is not at all clear given they also seem to believe they can never overcome their own history either no matter how long Democrats run things or how much money is redistributed.

I don’t know why anyone bothers voting for Democrats since everything they do is so hopeless in solving the issues they never stop campaign on.

Then again until trump showed up I was starting to think the same was true of all Republicans too.
