Hungary Discontinues Gender Studies Programs: ‘Ideology, Not Science’
Breitbart ^ | 10 Aug 2018 | Thomas D. Williams Ph.d

The Hungarian government is discontinuing programs in gender studies at state-run universities after determining the programs serve no identifiable purpose and are based on “ideology rather than science.”

Bence Rétvári, Secretary of State of the Ministry of Human Resources (EMMI), said that university degrees must be rooted in a scientific basis, whereas gender studies, “like Marxist-Leninism,” are more aptly termed ideology than science, and are inappropriate matter for university-level education.

A spokesman for the Hungarian government told Breitbart News that there is no demand for gender studies graduates in the Hungarian job market.

I think the Hungarians also managed in recent years to throw up some sort of decent fence on their borders to stop the hordes of muslim invaders invited into Europe by Frau Merkel. Sensible people.

My Hungarian grandparents would have told you that this was just typical Hungarian common sense.

As Sarah Palin would say, you betcha. Take a look at this graph. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is not fooling around. He's even out-Trumping Donald Trump.

If only we could do this here too.

Sure, people getting these worse than worthless degrees may just end up sitting around playing computer games in their free time from their unskilled labor job but they’d be doing it without all the debt ... so net plus for them.

I read a book called “How the Irish Saved Civilization”.

Maybe 50 or 100 years down the road another one will be written, “How Eastern Europe Saved Civilization”?
