“School spokesman Greg Vehr says the university is ‘committed to excellence and diversity.’”
Except, of course, diversity of thought. Universities and colleges today are not centers of higher learning; they’re radioactive wastelands of Leftist indoctrination, and are unashamedly totalitarian: dissenters such as Clifford Adams are swiftly and ruthlessly punished, with no second chance and no recourse.
This isn’t just happening in universities, either. It is rapidly becoming the norm in the wider society as well. Anyone who questions the dogmas that Islam is a religion of peace and that Muslims are persecuted and harassed in Donald Trump’s America is pilloried and destroyed. The freedom of speech is a despised and misunderstood concept, as it has become widely accepted that “hate speech” is not protected by the First Amendment, and the slightest negative word about Islam constitutes “hate speech.”
Note the totalitarian pattern. Adams, subject to Hillary Clinton’s recommended peer pressure and shaming, issues an abject apology. But it isn’t good enough. He must be made an example for anyone else who might dare to dissent.
The University of Cincinnati ought to be picketed and inundated with protests until Clifford Adams is reinstated. But it is unlikely that there are enough lovers of freedom there who understand the implications of this case and are willing to stick their necks out.
Meanwhile, in which Muslim country would Greg Vehr or anyone else at the University of Cincinnati venture to say that Muslim women are safer than they are in the U.S.?
“Music professor who said Muslim woman safer in US forced out,” Associated Press, March 10, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
CINCINNATI – An Ohio music professor who said Muslim women and girls are safer in the U.S. than in any Middle Eastern country has been forced to retire.
The Cincinnati Enquirer reports University of Cincinnati assistant professor Clifford Adams has been placed on administrative for the remainder of the semester and will retire May 1.
He made the comment online to a Muslim student who had criticized Donald Trump’s presidency and spoke about freedom and diversity. Adams wrote “how dare” she complain.
…He earlier wrote a letter to The Enquirer saying he was “deeply sorry” and was trying to have a “lively, provocative, scholarly argument.”
