1 " ... professors are ... intellectual terrorists. May they reap what they sow. "
― Ben Shapiro , Brainwashed: How Universities Indoctrinate America's Youth
2 " Without God, there is no right and wrong ... Anything goes. Life loses value, and with that loss of value comes a loss of societal strength. "
3 " The Democrats running the universities don't separate politics and teaching. "
4 " Most economists oppose minimum wage laws, but that never prevents the laws from being written. The living wage movement lives on, not because of any merit, but because it's a popular political move to back anything that "helps the poor. "
5 " The liberal media hates Republicans, the military, and Israel. "
6 " As a religious person, I do agree with much of Ayn Rand's profoundly negative view of religion. Still, to minimize her contribution to philosophy is ridiculous. Her espousal of capitalism is incredibly important, today more than ever before. With taxes rising and government intervening in all sectors of life, her libertarian philosophy is required at least to balance the debate. "
7 " Professors hope to build an intellectual tower that reaches into the heavens, to challenge God. They drag organized religion through the mud and then shoot arrows at its diritied carcass. "
8 " Truth itself is a casualty as the result of a disturbing trend in academia to fully embrace postmodern moral relativism. "
9 " Moral Relativism is a widespread disease. "
10 " Conservatives and portrayed as members of a conspiratorial power structure. "
11 " For Democrats, the goal of society should be ensure "social justice"-a nice-sounding abstraction that boils down to ham-fisted government intervention. "
12 " Only at [a] university is a riot an "uprising," a police officer a thug, and a criminal a hero. "
13 " ... why isn't cutting government spending a viable alternative to maintaining high taxes? "
14 " At my own beloved UCLA the numbers are just as frightening. There are thirty-one English professors with registered party affiliation. Twenty-nine of them are affiliated with the Democratic party, the Green party, or another leftist political party. Out of thirteen journalism professors with registered affiliation, twelve are affiliated with leftist parties. Fifty-three out of fifty-six history professors are affiliated with leftist parties. Sixteen out of seventeen political science professors are affiliated with leftist parties. Thirty-one of thirty-three women’s studies professors are affiliated with leftist parties. "
15 " Professors are allowed to teach homosexuality, Marxism (a secular religion), and anti-Americanism, but mention God and you’re out of a job. "
16 " There are few colleges or universities where parents may send their sons and daughters without their being contaminated with some phase of the vilest of Communistic and allied teaching,” cautioned Roscoe Dorsey of the National Republic magazine. "
17 " From its very inception, the goal of higher education has been to challenge the authority structure under the banner of open-minded inquiry. "
18 " The Leon Trotsky wing of the university hates capitalism with a vengeance. According to this faction, capitalism does nothing good; it only broadens the gap between rich and poor and results in the exploitation of people for the sake of money. "
19 " Inequality by itself does not imply creation of poverty. "
20 " The university view of the media says that the New York Times is entirely objective, not wildly biased. Ditto for the Los Angeles Times. So too for CNN. In fact, the only non-objective news sources are Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, and the Drudge Report. There is no liberal bias in the media. "
