You know, I really dislike how the left makes everything about race and racism, and I really don’t want to fall in their trap by constantly apologizing for the stupider members of my particular ethnicity, but man, I really feel like I have to over this next story.
An editor of a college paper actually apologized for TRAUMATIZING minorities because he ran a FRICKIN PHOTO of a conservative social scientist!!!!!
Read this amazing BS:
I wish to explain the photograph on page A1 to the readers. I recognize that it may be especially jarring, particularly for students of color who feel that Charles Murray’s rhetoric poses a threat to their very humanity. I also recognize that Murray’s visit to campus last March is an open wound for a campus trying desperately to move forward from it.
During a heated debate in the newsroom on Tuesday night, most of the section editors, and the managing editor, said that running this photograph would be inappropriate. Though I deeply respect the input of my editors, I decided to run the photograph anyway. I take full responsibility for this decision. It was mine alone, and any criticism should be directed at me alone.
This photograph is not meant to troll, or to cause pain, but to ask how that protest still lives with us today, one year later. For many, this image is burned in our collective memory. As much as we try to distance ourselves from that moment, we are made from it.
I recognize that running this photograph is a political act. Yet I see no way to comprehend this institution without seeing ourselves as part of American society, which is itself political.
I also believe moving forward requires looking inside, however unpleasant that may be. We cannot escape our history. We can only confront it.
Ethan Brady is the editor in chief.
Now, in the defense of minorities, let me say that often these statements are made on our behalf by snowflakey white liberals, so don’t put ALL the blame on us. But, we do bear some of the blame.
I mean, that’s pathetic.
Not only is Charles Murray a brilliant man whose reputation has been smeared by wretched foul liberals, but even if he were as bad as they imagine, they STILL should be able to withstand seeing a damn photo of the dude!!!
Seriously, I am afraid for America because of this generation.
Not because they are the majority, but because they will have their pathetic loser hands on the levers of power.
Hopefully I’ll be dead, buried and off to my heavenly reward by then.
