Students want to defund newspaper because of op-ed critical of BLM

All apologies to Alcon, but undergrads are literally the worst.

Again, SJWs are the enemy of mankind. They are communists.

These ones are just dumb college students. 19 year old right wingers say things that are just as dumb. This is why we don't let 19 year olds run the government. They'll grow out of it.

But nowadays, it's LIBERALS who are the pro-censorship crowd.  They want to censor "hate speech" (unless it's hatred directed against religious conservatives).  I grew up in an era where the right was that way with anti-war speeches, but the right has at least grown up.  The left liberals who started the Free Speech movement in the early 1960s would be aghast at this

From reading the article, it sounds like the context of this controversy is that there is a lack of diversity on the newspaper's staff and that many students of color feel that they have been marginalized on an ongoing basis at the school.

Of course, that shouldn't be an excuse to arbitrarily restrict political speech, but I don't think that this is happening in a vacuum.

Isn't it fun how, due to social media, the curious world of student politics can be everyone's business?
