Get College Credit For Going Socialist ... And Recruiting Others
Truth Revolt ^ | 9/18/14 | Caleb Howe

It is a long-standing and often repeated lament on the right that academia and college campuses are self-declared enemies of conservative thinking broadly, and the Republican party specifically, and in a treacherous but overt and unrepentant manner. So it comes as no surprise to website The College Fix that some colleges are offering course credit for promoting socialist causes and participating in socialist recruitment on campus. Not a surprise, but still an outrage.

Young Democratic Socialists (YDS) are coordinating with administrators to help YDS Leader program participants get college credit for their activities. According to The Fix, activities which mirror those on the other side, like working with the Young Republicans, do not  earn course credit. The information is plainly outlined at the YDS website.

Democratic Socialists of America's National Director told The Fix that this is a standard arrangement, saying "“As you may be aware, many schools have programs where a student finds an internship with a non-profit, for-profit, or advocacy organization and is supervised by an academic adviser." However, a particular case at USC illustrates where the problem is.

I’m not surprised. I’m glad that the Marxists are finally coming out of the closet. Makes target ID easier when the time comes.

Still another justification for a Final Solution to the Treasonous Democrat Problem. It’s not like we would be losing any engineers or other technically or mathematically accomplished thinkers.

They’ve gone beyond blatant bias to smacking people in the face with it.

Colleges are in the businesses of training people to destroy this country. For $40,000 a year.

And then they complain that after they graduate, no one wants to hire them.

The DSA is the most influential Marxist/communist organization in the Obama regime besides a core from the old Communist Party USA (many of whom are now aligned with the DSA as a more effective force).

You can find out about this at the website www.keywiki.org by searching under the DSA name, or in the two books “The Enemies Within” (US Congress), by Trevor Loudon, 2011 and 2013, re www.pacificfreedomfoundation.com.

Photos of DSA and CPUSAers with Obama in these books, esp. under Quentin Young, Obama, Danny Davis, etc.
