Black Lives Matter is a lie

SAYS FORMER CHAPTER LEADER

The founder of the Black Lives Matter chapter in St. Paul, Minnesota has resigned, saying that the group isn’t concerned with helping black communities or helping improve the public schools. I am glad people like him are standing up and speaking out. I wish more would do the same.

Turning citizens into angry activists

THE POST-JOURNALISM ERA

In 2016, staff at The New York Times embarked on “a wrenching pivot from a journalism of fact to a ‘post-journalism’ of opinion.”

“The experiment proved controversial. It sparked a melodrama over standards, featuring a conflict between radical young reporters and befuddled middle-aged editors. The requirements of a newspaper as an institution collided with the call for an explicit struggle against injustice.”

“The goal of post-journalism, according to media scholar Andrey Mir, is to ‘produce angry citizens.’”

“He killed a fascist. I see nothing wrong with it.”

THERE IS NOTHING
WRONG WITH MURDER?

Smearing political opponents as fascist is a dehumanizing tactic, just what the Nazis did with their political and perceived opposition, including the Jews, during World War II.

“He killed a fascist. I see nothing wrong with it.” That is a quote from Erik Loomis, a professor at the University of Rhode Island. He supports stalking and murdering people he considers fascists, such as Aaron Danielson, who was shot dead by leftist radical Michael Reinoehl in downtown Portland, Oregon.

Earlier I wrote about artwork at the University of Rhode Island that is slated for removal because it has been deemed offensive and controversial, which is blatantly ridiculous.

Up is down at the University of Rhode Island. Reasoning and decency are dead.
