NextImg:Bill Maher Brutally Destroys "Woke" Higher Education, People on the Left Will Hate This

Bill Maher, a well known liberal, has been on a tear lately railing against woke culture and the stifling of speech and dissent that seems to dominate the left these day.

A couple of nights ago Maher decided to go after higher education, specifically the Ivy league and other so called “elite” schools and he held nothing back.

Watch and see for yourself, this is brutal:

“When the First Amendment watchdog group Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression began ranking colleges based on their commitment to free speech and inquiry, Harvard came in dead last. There’s only one set of acceptable opinions on campus, and it’s policed hard. The old dorm room bull sessions, it’s less risky shooting the sh*t in scientology.

John Stuart Mill wrote that he who knows only his own side of the case knows little, to which today’s college students respond, ‘’He’ and ‘his’ are cis pronouns that commit violence against queer and BIPOC communities, so who cares what John Stuart Mill says, whoever he is. Oh, and Thomas Jefferson was a slaveholder. He might have done some other stuff, but it wasn’t on the test.’

Elite schools should no longer be called elite. Just say expensive.

To the older folks I say, college today is not the college you remember. And to the younger people I say, don’t. Don’t do it. You don’t need four years and a lifetime of crippling debt to learn to hate America when you can just watch five minutes of ‘Selling Sunset.’

If your parents have 300 grand, they absolutely need to flush down the toilet, put it in crypto, or buy a van, go to a national park and feed yourself to a bear, because any legacy dipsh*t can go to Penn, but a bear, that’s hard to get into.”

While I disagree politically with Bill Maher on many issues on this specific issue he and I are in complete agreement.

Education at all levels in this country is broken.

It broke the day those who run these institutions and school districts decided that indoctrination was more important than actual education.

The only way to fix the educational system in this country is to get back to the basics.

Start teaching reading, writing and arithmetic and keep the political indoctrination out of it.

As one of our founding fathers Noah Webster once wrote “But every child in America should be acquainted with his own country. He should read books that furnish him with ideas that will be useful to him in life and practice. As soon as he opens his lips, he should rehearse the history of his own country; he should lisp the praise of liberty, and of those illustrious heroes and statesmen, who have wrought a revolution in her favor.”
