Keying off a post on X.com that sparked a big controversy about ideological indoctrination in colleges and universities, I teach you how to handle controversies in class as a college student. I also expose the trickery in this particular post and how the controversy got sparked. I even give you some tips about how to be effective in the controversy about sexualization and leftist indoctrination in college.Charlie Kirk was effective because he was truthful and knowlegable.

NOTICE AND AVOID DISTRACTION THAT DETRACTS FROM YOUR LIFE

Some people want to make hay by … spin. Other want to pick our pockets or worse while distracting us by getting us to fight with each other. Find out how to avoid this.

So, the incident a couple of weeks ago claimed that a student was kicked out of class for refusing to go along with sexual indoctrination. Actually what the video showed was the professor agreeing to let the student leave, after the student makes some outrageously ignorant comments. She was not kicked out. We don’t have enough of the video to actually know the professor was up to. What we do hear is not adept, but without context we can not judge that she was indoctrinating the student. Maybe she was, but everyone in the story handled themselves badly.

HERE IS HOW TO PROCEED IN A MORE EFFECTIVE MANNER

Here is how to do better.

Controversy is a must as a subject in college. It is a must because one will face societal controversies when one graduates and becomes a professional. Perhaps that is what the university president meant to say. We don’t know. What we know are a very few words, again, taken out of context. Not a good look.

Just like the student didn’t seem to know the rules of the game of college classroom, so the politician didn’t seem to know the rules of the game about college administration. The college president has no control, or shouldn’t, over the teaching in the classroom. We already had ongoing controversies about academic freedom and tenure. The politician who started this might indeed know the game of political “gotcha” with regard to media. That is not how we want to controvert issues, not how we want to be lead, and certainly not the kind of character we want to govern.

Let’s get into it.

White House Statements on Education Initiative

(Remember when reporters continued to mis-quote Trump, as if he said that Mexicans were all rapists? Remember when they told you we had a pandemic, when acutally we had a death rate in toto for all viral problems of less than 1/1000th?) Okay, so get news from the source when possible. Get context. Get the whole pictures. Then, make a judgment. Rather than start with someone else’s judgment and get weaponized based on a false story. You know that that is exactly their plan, yes?

Change in School Discipline Policy

Fair discipline across all categories seems to be the new policy. If we have government run schools, well, there should be fairness. That is my position. At the college level, for sure, I have seen lack of fairness such that minority students know they don’t have to do normal things and others are definitely really unsafe.

Improving Accreditation at Higher Education

Accreditation ought to tell parents something about the quality of education. When other goals detract from academics, that should not be forced upon everyone based on accreditation. Of course, I think that schools without accreditation must be permitted too.

So, these things seem like an improvement compared to the reverse discrimination that has happened.

Now, here is a third item:

Not so sure about this. I agree with Elon Musk that there must be some law restraints on AI for the safety of humanity.
