  • I mean, people paid to attend trump ‘university’. There are always plenty of fools who will buy stupid shit. I kind of feel sorry for the students though. Most people are pretty young at university age and many are still forming their perspectives. Getting away from home and meeting new people is an important part of this. Plenty of people from conservative families go away to uni and start to see that they’ve been brought up on bullshit. This is an attempt to stop that from happening - the ‘anti-woke’ shit will attract more conservative students which will reduce the chance that any of them will encounter different views and cultures so they stay in their ignorance bubble. Don’t want little Johnny or Jane coming home from school an anarchist! It’s sad for the students though who will come away in massive debt with a useless degree and have less opportunity for healthy change.







  • Personally, I think it’s fairly likely that Jesus was a real person, or possibly the amalgamation of the myths of several people who were well known at the time. I just don’t think he was the son of God etc, all the angels and shit. It seems likely he was a grass roots activist amongst an oppressed population experiencing military occupation. Probably got put to death for it too, and then somehow his posthumous reputation got mixed up with religion and hits exaggerated biography was tacked onto the Jewish bible and became the new testament.

    No need to believe in all the miracles and shit, it just seems more likely that he was an activist who got famous than that someone sat down and wrote a piece of fiction and managed to found a religion based on it. Although TBF I guess Hubbard did that so who really knows?
