Mizzou Campus Activists and Black Lives Matter Complain About Paris Stealing the Spotlight

Hat tip Francis Marion

Via Breithbart

Campus activists in America showed their true faces during an international tragedy last night: they are the selfish, spoiled children we always knew they were.

Black Lives Matter and Mizzou protesters responded to the murder of scores of people in Paris at the hands of Islamic extremists by complaining about losing the spotlight and saying their “struggles” were being “erased.” Their struggles, remember, consist of a poop swastika of unknown provenance and unsubstantiated claims of racially-charged remarks somewhere near Missouri’s campus.

So debased has the language on American campuses become that these incidents, which many observers believe to be hoaxes, just like previous campus scandals celebrated by progressive media, are being referred to as “terrorism” and a “tragedy” by moronic 20-year-olds who have never been told, “No.”

Such a reaction is understandable, if grimly hilarious. These kids been raised by indulgent parents, instructed by professors racked with middle-class white guilt who secretly hate themselves and western culture, and promoted by a sympathetic media which bends over backwards to put them in the best light and paper over their tantrums.

This is the same media hesitant to call Paris an act of Islamic terrorism for hours, despite shouts of “Allahu akbar.” The product of their pandering to the politics of grievance and offence-taking is a generation of students who, faced with the horror of a terrorist attack killing hundreds, respond with: “But what about me?”

Campus activists and Black Lives Matter protesters shame themselves any time they are forced to go off-script. Normally, their messaging is carefully controlled. They parrot a narrative created by progressive media and reinforced via well-funded spokespeople and professional agitators. Left to their own devices, however, they fall to pieces.

Ergo, the head-scratching spectacle of hundreds of college crybullies cast adrift from the pronouncements of Salon columnists and left to complain aloud that their grievances were playing second fiddle to innocent French citizens being mowed down by jihadist maniacs.

Even Black Lives Matter’s notional leaders, often more judicious in their timing and wording, got in on the act.

Black Lives Matter and Mizzou tweets fell broadly into two categories of stupid last night:

  • Paris and Mizzou are equivalent: both represent “terrorism.” (This is the message from Black Lives Matter.)
  • White people are “erasing black lives” by focusing on Paris. (This is the language of the racial grievance-fuelled campus social justice movement.)

There was, of course, a huge backlash not just from conservatives but from most decent observers. It fell on deaf ears, with many of the most preposterous tweets being hastily deleted.

The disgusting liberals will say anything – lies are irrelevant and even highly prized – to promote their agenda. This goes far, far beyond Mizzou and Stupid Lives Matter.

As the great one says: Liberalism is a mental disorder.

email from interim chancellor:

Dear Members of the Mizzou Community,

This has been a significant week in our University’s history. Although some people may perceive that Mizzou is in turmoil and what is happening here is negative, I want to tell you that it is not! We are proud of our students. They are passionate and committed. They care deeply about this place.

What is currently happening at Mizzou is not turmoil; nor is it negative. In fact the student activism this fall at Mizzou is positive. What it shows is that we are diverse, tolerant and open. But, the activism also shows that for everyone to feel a part of Mizzou and its richness, we have more to do in order to become more inclusive as a learning community.

I want to assure you that we have a diverse team of leaders who will move Mizzou forward in the coming days, weeks and months. As a result of progress, our campus will be a better place for all students, staff and faculty members. We are teaching, conducting research, outreach and economic development.

And, we are doing more. As an institution, we are taking immediate, concrete steps toward a better future.

So instead of being dismayed, let’s be proud of our school. Mizzou, to its credit, is a place where dissent and activism are not just tolerated, but embraced. Mizzou can and will absorb this. By doing so, we will progress, we will become even better, and we will become known as a desirable school offering rich educational experiences. I truly believe this — our nation is at a critical juncture in its history and, once again, Mizzou and Missouri are at the nexus of change.

Again, you may be hearing differently, the truth here at Mizzou is very different. I am very encouraged by this fall’s events. I am proud and I hope you are too!

So, I hope you come away from this message knowing that our school, your Mizzou, is getting stronger, healthier and better every day!

Look for more communications from me and from our leadership team in the ensuing days and weeks.

Henry C. “Hank” Foley
Interim Chancellor

These are the people we are tuning control of our colleges and our cities over to.

I’m not seeing this as a good thing.

But maybe I’m just getting old.

Mizzou is a horrible raciss campus. All monetary donations should be withheld until a vote of all black students there declares MU free of racism. All federal dollars withheld until the same.

Read Gramsci: there was a guy who knew which way to make the wind blow to blow the West to make it ripe for conquest! Don’t look now, but the pomegranate is about ready to drop from the tree. And the Muslims didn’t think this one up; the thought behind this came from elsewhere.

we could start by not sending our kids to public universities. Asinine gibberish like “microaggression” can only be effectively fostered and spread in the cloistered, cutoff, sheltered environment of ‘higher education.’ Maybe if we starve the beast, it will stop infecting our kids with this kind of madness.

But that would be a merely partial solution. The full answer escapes me, but I know it requires everyone to come to terms with these five Absolute Truths:

1) If it wasn’t intended to offend you, then you shouldn’t be offended.

2) You do not get to decide someone else’s intentions. They do.

3) Being offended is a choice you make. Nobody is responsible for that choice but you.

4) Even if the slight was intended and deliberate, functioning adults understand that they must move on and not dwell over every sideways glance or rude comment.

5) You have to stop doing the trendy internet thing where you write something on a piece of paper and take a picture of yourself holding it up while frowning. It’s just annoying at this point.

I’ve been a non-posting reader here for quite a while, but this absolutely pisses me off. One of my long-time friends sustained gunshot wounds at the Bataclan, and another was killed.

Maybe I’ll give a shit when 130 or so of you Mizzou social justice snowflakes are gunned down just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and not because of the color of your skin.

Then again, I kind of doubt it.

How many white lives and property was destroyed during the the Civil war because of your race?

What amount of white tax payers dollars and donations have your race received during all these decades?

After all of this, your kind continues to be ungrateful and demand a pound of white flesh. If you blacks feel that your kind is still treated unfairly by whites, then move back to Africa and find sympathy there. It will be cheaper for us white folks in the end.

PS: will someone from Mizzou comment on the white genocide in south Africa and black on black crime?

ATTENTION: MORONS AND SJWs (but I repeat myself)

The essay below is nearly 3 years old. I agreed with it at the time, and I agree with it even more today. Yet it doesn’t go far enough in expressing just how few fucks I give about your increasingly infantile and absurd causes and your ludicrous claims. Read it, understand it, and fuck off.

These ? people? are absurd . They are following someone else’s script and will probably pay dearly for it when soros and his ilk are done with them. I’m sick of being discriminated against by all the Macro aggressions of minorities. Where is my Caucasian set asides? Where is my white congressional congress? or 100 white men ? or any of the plethora of set asides for minorities that cannot make it on their own? MLK said judged on the content of character not the color of skin and yet these people cant make it on their own that way . Now its skin color . Fuck their whining ass bullshit!
They are too stupid to see the game of divide and conquer that is going on .
