Professor Rants on 'Piggish' Cops & Conservative 'Schmucks' While Extolling 'Useful' Marxist Concepts for America (radical, Obama)

[doctrain]

"There has been no shortage of partisan teaching in the news lately, but Professor Philippe Bourgois of The University of Pennsylvania may have just brought proselytizing from the lectern to a new low."

"Bourgois, a Professor of Anthropology at Penn, gave a public lecture recently slandering police officers, conservatives, doctors and America itself, all while encouraging and complimenting the teachings of Karl Marx. The rant took place in front of students on the campus of Bryn Mawr College, located west of Philadelphia. The talk was a panel discussion entitled ‘The Transformation of Poverty Governance."

This guy needs a mirror handy when he's talking about 'Schmucks.' Unfortunately, we are seeing our public schools overtaken with this kind of radical thinking.

Sounds interesting. I hope the full presentation becomes available. I haven't heard the term lumpenproletaria since grad school.

From his presentation: "The McCarthy years have been behind us for long us that we need to dust out the very useful Marxist, very hard core ugly Marxist concept about the lumpenproletariat and the lumpen and look at it carefully because I think we are at a different moment in our history where it is useful to look at that term you know precisely to look at that term. Most of the time he was very sloppy with that term. The lumpenproletariat are those sectors--it's actually the lumpen sectors --are those sectors of the society that get thrown out of any possibility of interfacing productively with the economy of that moment in history."

This is just a sample of the majority of the kind of people that are teaching our college age people. Look at their success rate at 'occupy' mobs.

Powerless private citizens who rant about Marxism: the most evil thing in the world in conservative minds

Actual corporate bigwigs who embezzle money, buy politicians, treat people like cattle, kill people with pollution, outsource jobs, crash our economy with sketchy insider/derivative trading: heroic job creators

Kind of a funny last name for a Marxist to have.

Just because he's a Marxist doesn't mean he's wrong about everything. On police brutality and the prison-industrial complex he's right.
And none of the cons here notice he's attacking a public employees' union - have the types of people reading the Blaze now changed their tune when it comes to public employee's unions?

70 - 80% are Liberal. I imagine of that percentage, a large chunk are radicals. Its how the country has fallen into such nasty shape. Been going on too long.

*LOL* You obviously haven't spent much time on college campuses.

This Marxist professor in no doubt seeking a future appointment in the Obama administration.

There is a way to counter the Marxism preached on college campuses by Constitutional Conservatives educating the masses similarly. Here is but one example: Liberty Classroom | The history and economics they didn't teach you.

Using the theory and language of Marxism to explain social phenomena does not make one a Marxist.

Oh, so you aren't against indoctrination in the classroom as long as the indoctrination forwards YOUR beliefs. How one lives with this kind of hypocrisy is beyond me.
