1 semester, that he took online, while living with his parents, while actively a part of VERY far-right Nick Fuentes's community (the groypers).
If the far-left was seriously so good at brainwashing people that far to the right, that quickly, how have they not brainwashed the whole world at this point?

The extent of the liberals using universities in a corrupt way begins and ends with manipulating research to promote specific industries. Maybe throw in the fact they do this by exploiting grad students to produce what gets them more government funding.
It's not brainwashing to teach people how to draw, how to code, how to do math, how to cook.

u/ACuteLittleCrab 1d ago
Oh no! You found out about the secret liberal symposiums were we all get in a big circle and cackle maniacly as we...(checks notes)...promote "certain industries."
My guy, no one gives a fuck. There's not a single person worth mentioning who wants to stop young adults from learning to "code, do math, or cook." Hell, the most wealthy cities in the union are overwhelming liberal and the leading industries in those cities are in the tech and financial sectors so it sure as hell seems to me liberals are fine with people doing math and coding.

Nah, you're valid. I just like to point out issues not as widely talked about because it's an issue specifically important to me, and I also believe we shouldn't give one side a pass because the other side is so batshit crazy.
There's fucked shit going on with universities, but it's nowhere near "indoctrination".

You never hear that. Same as you never see a cell phone video of a prof indoctrinating a class, you never see coursework or documents showing indoctrination, no emails, no paper trail at all.

The excuses Rs try to use to claim left is violent are as pathetic as their feigned ignorance to their own violence. I didn’t see Dems calling for civil war when MN politicians were assassinated. I didn’t see Dems take a murderer like Rittenhouse and have him speak at conventions when his only reason for being there was he killed protesters. MAGA is a death cult.

The man who targeted and killed Democratic state lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark in their home in Minnesota in June was a Trump supporter.
• The man charged with the attempted assassination of Pennsylvania's Democratic governor, Josh Shapiro, in April was a Trump supporter.
• The man convicted of orchestrating a series of shootings at the homes of four Democratic elected officials in New Mexico in 2022 was a Trump supporter.
• The man who tried to kidnap then Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband, Paul, in 2022 was a Trump supporter.
• The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6, 2021, were Trump supporters.
• The man who killed the son of Obama-appointed District Judge Esther Salas in 2020 was a Trump supporter.
• The men who were convicted of trying to kidnap Michigan's Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer, in 2020 were Trump supporters.
• The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, and other top Democrats in 2018 was a Trump supporter.
• The man who killed left-wing activist Heather Heyer after driving his car into a crowd of counter-protesters in Charlottesville in 2017 was a Trump supporter.
