Playing on people’s emotional responses, and, getting that VIOLENT reaction out of them, a self-fulfilling prophecy, from the Front Page Sections, translated…
On the 19th, UC-Berkeley had cancelled the lecture by the conservative, Ann Coulter on the 27th, and on the 20th, the official changed their statements, that she is coming, but the date had been changed to the 25th. For one lecture, the school couldn’t even settle on a date, all because, since Trump was elected, the campus of Berkeley had become, a warzone for the Lefts and the Rights, the two groups had, beaten one another up, threw gas bombs at each other, there’s, this constant play of violence now, and the school became, stuck between the safety of the students and staff members and free speech.
The Washington Post reported, that UCI-Berkeley was the birthplace of the Free Speech Movement on the 1960s, and now, it’d become, a real warzone of idealism and ideology, the plans the school had made, of inviting the lecturers from various realms became, the start of riots now.
“we have a JUST cause, and, because the world SUCKS, we are, protesting!!!” Not my photo…
The school is forced, to defend either free speech, or keep the neighborhoods safe, and the most extremes of the left AND the right, rushed into the college town of Berkeley, ready, for war.
For the extremist right wing, it’s a strategy for success: setting up controversial activities in the schools, waiting, for the freedom groups to get agitated, and the angry words to be thrown, and, as the activities were cancelled, then, they’d accused the schools for being hypocritical, that they’re, suppressing the students’ right to free speech.
And, when there are, extreme right wing members who’d shown up on campus, whether it be White Supremacy, Militia, or Anti-Immigration groups, it would, anger the Lefts, made them compelled, to fight back, to resort of violence, to fight off the “Fascists”.
A lot of the residents, as well as the alumni were scared by these incidents of violence, but others had noticed, that these fights, on the right to free speech, had hit the city in the soul now.
The locals recalled, that back in the sixties, these students, who’d fought for the right to free speech, had been, suspended, expelled, even, sent to prison.
The sixty-one-year-old historian, Cohn, who’d participated in the anti-segregation movement in Berkeley from the past stated, “I feel so upset. I’m not for the schools, cancelling these activities, but, the Republican Party had, invited people who incited hatred to lecture, it’s not a matter of freedom of speech, they were merely, trying, to get the Lefts to take the bait!”
“Tuition hiked up again, and, we’re, ALL very unhappy here!!!”, not my photograph…
And yet, because the left felt they’re being offended, and naturally, they’d, reacted, and, making themselves into a SELF-FULFILLING PROPHECY, and, in this case, it still takes TWO to T-A-N-G-O, and those who’d invited those who have strong opinions to lecture knew that, and, they’re just, playing people using their emotions, and that, is what DEMOCRACY became these days: using feelings to upset, to get a RE-action out of people, while, the REAL matters don’t get mentioned or discussed one bit, and that, is the “wonders” (and yes, I’m still being SARCASTIC here!) of P-O-L-I-T-I-C-S!
