You got all bent out of shape when someone started a thread about white students being attacked by black flash mobs, and chastised everyone posting in it. You accused people of constantly posting things to put black people in a bad light. Not one little drop of outrage for the act itself.
But now the shoe is on the other foot and it's all different. SHOCKING!
No, I discuss those things. I don't get bent out of shape on them. I do what I did with the poster who got upset about my Frances Cress Wesling reference - I rattle cages and see what happens.
I accuse people of believing the media over reality. Same thing I am doing in this thread. I'm pretty consistent about that.
People get all in an outrage about flash mobs - OH the blacks are going to kill us . People get on a high horse saying that all black people are fatherless - OH the blacks are all bad cause they have no fathers - yet statistics don't back them up lol. People get all bent out of shape because a class is called "The Problem of Whiteness" and - OH the whites will have their feelings hurt and be belittled in class .
LOL it is pretty hilarious to me. But I mostly like to remind people that they should rely more on reality versus media depictions and it is sad that politically, both sides are basically "snowflakes" and can't take any sort of criticisms.
You forgot when I chastise the liberals too who told me on more than one occassion on this forum - OH the blacks are so down and lowly and don't have a culture or anything and that's why they're all bad
I don't mean to attack you personally. I sincerely just want to learn something from you.
You honestly don't see there is a potential problem to name the class "The problem of whiteness" class?
Maybe I am just hypersensitive, I would have a big problem if somebody name the class "The problem of mixed race people" "The problem of interracial marriage."
I cannot imagine the reaction if there is a class called "The problem of the Jews."
It looks like "you should read the course description, not just the title" is not really a strong argument here.
I would take any and all of those classes. I am not threatened by ideas even if they are controversial and I believe we can learn from everyone, especially those we disagree with.
Oh, forgot my favorite one I see around here - OH the "media" with their stories make white people be racist
LOL GTFOH!
It is like people cannot have an individual thought and are extremely weak minded today. And FWIW, I see this one a LOT and not just on this board!! White people saying that media stories "make" them racist!
Call the university and complain if you have a problem with it. It is your worldview, and no one quite honestly should tell you how to feel or think. Make your concerns known to the Board, Provost, President, Chancellor, etc.

But yes, you should read the course description.
To be quite honest, I am ready to take a few of the classes if they offer them online. The subject matter is one of my greatest interests. Lifelong Learner I am.

I take BS and I flip it around, simple as that.
Like when Michelle said of Trump that people have lost hope remarks ?
Hey I like stirring the cauldron too !
