What's scary is people like this are seeking positions of power/authority, and they are getting hired/nominated/elected.
This person is student body president of their college. This person will most likely seek a position of power/authority after college, and will probably succeed because he/she is part of a protected class, and to oppose is to be racist/bigoted.
And just what do you think a person like this will do once in power???? Imagine the policies a person like this would propose.
For those talking about how awful this person is (which I agree with), can’t we just focus on her behavior and words, and not her appearance. I think she was born a bio male and now identifies as female, right? So most trans people aren’t going to be prime physical specimens of the sex they identify with, with a few exceptions. Just as not all bio females are beautiful. I see nothing horrible in this persons appearance. I actually think she could pass as a female most people would think was average looking. However, I see plenty horrible in her soul and heart and brain...
And this institution gets public funding for this hate content?
But of course..
Quote:
VCU received $169 million in total extramural federal funding, a 6% gain from FY 2019. This includes nearly $92 million in funding from the National Institutes of Health. The funds from the National Science Foundation and the Departments of Education, Justice and Defense registered increases. The overall federal portfolio consisted of 54% NIH funds and 46% non-NIH funds.
She should not be permitted to be student body president, especially of such a diverse school. She’s clearly violent, racist and likely a whole bunch of other descriptors. She should seek help.
So essentially you have both a superiority and a God complex. Okay. If that floats your boat.
Can you explain how you came to that conclusion?

I'm not sure what you mean by this. I never claimed to be more trustworthy than anyone else. My post was only to show what the world is, not how it ought to be. Is there anything in particular that I wrote that you disagreed with?

And you think liberals are NOT loyal? again, Haidt is on crack. They are certainly loyal to their cause. That is how they have nearly destroyed the nation. They are like pitbulls.
Haidt discussed professed values, or conscious ideals. I have little interest in what people claim to believe. I have much more interest in trying to figure out who you really are, what you really want, why you believe what you believe, or at least why you claim to.
I agree with your basic sentiment here, a lot of people who call themselves liberals aren't driven by the more noble sentiments discussed by Haidt. Rather they tend to be more driven by envy and resentment. They attach themselves to ideals like "equality", not so much because they want to be equal to everyone else, but because they envy and resent those with more than them. Their desire is not so much to lift those below them up, but to pull those above them down.
Or as George Orwell said, "Socialists don't care about the poor, they just hate the rich."
With that said, what you claim to believe still gives us some insight into who you are. Beliefs are a choice. You choose to believe what you believe for a reason. You seem to be more libertarian. Which is why I said you don't seem to have much interest in any of the values Haidt discusses. Why is that? Why does someone choose to be a libertarian?
I have little interest in debating people. My job here is only to pull back the curtain and show people what the world really is.
Why is this person still allowed to keep that position in school.
It checks all the right boxes in academia.
