        spongebob-wait “No, it’s ok! We’ll, uh, only give them red, white, and blue!”

        grill-broke “Blue? Like the democrats? AND RED?! LIKE THE COMMIES?!”

        innocence “Just white then?”

        grillman “Finally, colleges are back to doing what they were designed for”

          “Just white then?”

          I had a terrible mental image of a “Are ya triggered!” comedian named White Crayon. His shtick is complaining about “colors” and that not enough stuff is white. He says he “loves all colors” and “he’s just being an edgy character” who isn’t actually him. But his posts on social media make it clear is entire act is really about white power. Unfortunately - he becomes super popular and it seems it’s only a matter of time because his material is mainstream enough that he gets into movies and tv.

          I kind of made myself feel sick.

    Ah yes, the woke gender ideology of Plato that includes things like uh… men are better than women at everything and that men are reincarnated as women as a punishment.

      I think they much prefer Aristotle for his advocacy of categorical male supremacy and proto-race-science views on ethnicity.

    i mean i know we all know this but these bros always intentionally pretend to forget that gender ideology is a part of western civilization too (i think Plato’s gender ideology was “women are a different species”).

      Plato definitely thought men were generally superior, unfortunately, but he did not say that as far as I know.

    This is basically what routinely happened in East Germany. Also in the third Reich. It was called Gleichschaltung

    (If anyone’s wondering)

    Every day I am exceedingly happy I couldn’t afford to go to TAMU on an exchange program.
