In the wake of the pro-Trump "chalkings" appearing on college campuses across the nation, (that's causing anxiety and fear among the students), there's another unsettling story in the New York Post about pro-Trump students also fearing the repercussions from their Presidential choices:
NYU’s pro-Trump students fear for their safety — and grades
"They may be flooding caucus rooms across the country, but Donald Trump supporters at NYU keep their heads down, mouths shut and their correspondence secret.
Lying in class about their political beliefs and keeping online conversations strictly private are typical precautions taken by The Donald’s badly outnumbered followers on campus.
“Supporters generally try to keep it hidden from the rest of the student body,” said junior Dylan Perera, 22. “They’re afraid of losing friends, being ridiculed in class, getting worse grades and are even afraid of being assaulted and physically hurt.”
Make no mistake, the "diversity" professed on our college campuses is a false expression. There's no diversity, or allowances for an expressed opinion, unless it's 100% liberal expression. Any other voice or opinion is met with intimidation, ridicule, or worse---your "space" is not allowed, and "mussle will be called" to extract your 1st Amendment right.
I believe it's way past time for students with a conservative opinion to begin a peaceful revolt against any student body, (or faculty), that in any way restricts the basic right to voice an opinion without the fear from these intimidating cowards of our society.
Perhaps the real fear is that liberalism is dying a slow death across the fruited plains. The pendulum is swinging---more so on college campuses---from the radical far left, back towards the middle, where conservative thought is beginning to prevail as an alternative to liberalism and the big government socialist ideals that shackles the individual to perpetual bondage. Liberals have found solace in this form of dependency---the entitlement-minded, who've been indoctrinated through our public educational system where individual responsibility no longer exist, or is expected. Liberals prefer to be coddled/guided, from cradle to grave, by an "official agency"/a central government, or any entity that absolves them of individual responsibility.
Maybe it’s time for the parents of these students to remind them what the definition of diversity is. If your “child” has a problem with allowing an alternative thought, (other than liberalism), and employs cowardly tactics that suppresses the rights of others to express themselves---then perhaps YOU are part of the problem.
