— Ace Here is the Harvard Crimson's blurb on the writer:
Sandra Y.L. Korn Â’14, a Crimson editorial writer, is a joint history of science and studies of women, gender and sexuality concentrator in Eliot House. Her column usually appears on alternate Mondays.
Well I didn't see that coming.
She argues -- as the left always does -- for replacing the concept of freedom (which, as Loki can tell you, is actually enslaving) with the concept of "justice," meaning social justice, and politics.
Yet the liberal obsession with “academic freedom” seems a bit misplaced to me. After all, no one ever has “full freedom” in research and publication. Which research proposals receive funding and what papers are accepted for publication are always contingent on political priorities. The words used to articulate a research question can have implications for its outcome. No academic question is ever “free” from political realities. If our university community opposes racism, sexism, and heterosexism, why should we put up with research that counters our goals simply in the name of “academic freedom”?Instead, I would like to propose a more rigorous standard: one of “academic justice.” When an academic community observes research promoting or justifying oppression, it should ensure that this research does not continue.
The power to enforce academic justice comes from students, faculty, and workers organizing together to make our universities look as we want them to do. Two years ago, when former summer school instructor Subramanian Swamy published hateful commentary about Muslims in India, the Harvard community organized to ensure that he would not return to teach on campus. I consider that sort of organizing both appropriate and commendable. Perhaps it should even be applied more broadly....
She turns to the academic boycott of Israel, which of course she wholeheartedly supports. She dismisses quaint liberal notions about the "free flow of ideas" as antithetical to real "justice," by which she means real leftist politics.
In this case, discourse about “academic freedom” obscures what should fundamentally be a political argument.....
People on the right opposed to boycotts can play the “freedom” game, calling for economic freedom to buy any product or academic freedom to associate with any institution. Only those who care about justice can take the moral upper hand.
Freedom is a "game." You have the right to free speech, and the right to academic research into the truth, so long as the Committee of the Whole takes a vote on it and finds your research or speech to be in the interests of "social justice."
It is tempting to decry frustrating restrictions on academic research as violations of academic freedom. Yet I would encourage student and worker organizers to instead use a framework of justice. After all, if we give up our obsessive reliance on the doctrine of academic freedom, we can consider more thoughtfully what is just.
"Thoughtfully." Hm-hm.
Jonah Goldberg calls this what it is -- an attack on diversity of thought. The subhed of his piece -- which he may not have written -- says that "liberal" students threaten such thought, but that's not right: To call this Korn character a "liberal" is to do violence to the term.
She's a leftist. As noted last week, there is a sharp schism between old-timey liberals, who believe in "outdated" ideas like freedom of expression, and the hyperpoliticized new left, in which every freedom is subject to a vote.
He notices this is not confined to Harvard:
[Swathmore student Erin Ching's] school invited a famous left-wing Princeton professor, Cornel West, and a famous right-wing Princeton professor, Robert George, to have a debate. The two men are friends, and by all accounts they had an utterly civil exchange of ideas. But that only made the whole thing even more outrageous.“What really bothered me is, the whole idea is that at a liberal arts college, we need to be hearing a diversity of opinion,” Ching told the Daily Gazette, the school’s newspaper. “I don’t think we should be tolerating [George’s] conservative views because that dominant culture embeds these deep inequalities in our society.”
Why bother with all the fuss of proving your ideas when you can just take a vote and outlaw the expression of any criticism of them?
It's so much easier -- especially for people who, perhaps rather accurately, doubt they'd be able to win an argument on the merits.
CNN, which the New York Times informs us serves a "provincial" audience, has decided that "climate justice" should displace climate freedom. Or at least its senior media critic has decided that.
“Let’s begin with an important journalistic statement,” Brian Stelter declared Sunday on his show, CNN’s “Reliable Sources.” “Some stories don’t have two sides. Some stories are simply true. There’s no necessity to give equal time to the ‘other side.’ One of these is climate change. Depending on which study or which expert you consult, between 95 and 97 percent of scientists agree that climate change is happening now, that it’s damaging the planet and that’s it’s manmade. That seems pretty definitive, right?”

First declare the "validity" of tolerance for the [liberal] ideas that have no moral or rational justification.
Once they have been proclaimed - declare.., well you see above what you need to declare to outlaw rational and moral arguments.
"Mission Accomplished".
This goes for virtually EVERY Libtarded "cause".

Universities were founded hundreds of years ago as places where freedom of thought and education could flouish.
Fortunately, those two subsersive traits have been forcibly removed from their modern versions.

What the government can't do, they'll do through illegal thuggery."
Until they are no longer protected by government aegis. Once the govt. stops paying those guys with the guns and that sleepy look, these university partisans will be fortuante to survive.
I don't see them as being too successful in wading into the foodmart riots once the checks stop flowing. And then all their cries will be for naught.

Leftists are like herpes - you can never get rid of them. If you're lucky, you can keep them at bay for a while but they always return. Unfortunately, as we move further and further from the days of the USSR and the Cold War, we'll be seeing more and more leftists.

Going out on a limb, I'm going to speculate that it's been around since people began having opposing views on things. Really, this is one of those cases where well bless your heart is the only proper response.

I kind of agree - the disarming of people by the police during Hurricane Katrina was a strong argument against those who thought the police/military would resist illegal calls to confiscate arms.
And in my own living room I got to listen to a former Army officer express support for door-to-door confiscations after the Newtown shooting.

When I'm crazy optimistic I say it's 'cause they're scared as hell--they see they are losing huge.
I base that on my swamp theory of politics: What is going on in the swamps is the workings of subconscious of the whole.
If they are this crazy down there in the darkness, it means they are picking up on some stark-fear/staring into the abyss signals coming from the top.
In this view then, this lady is amplifying the signals, urging the body to action before it is too late . . . .

Ms. Korn blew a lot of cash for a degree that will get her a job at Starbucks and nowhere else. Unless she throws herself into grad school which only delays the awakening she is in debt with no marketable skills, unless she gets hired by an educational institution, then the denial can persist until she retires.

>>>What the fluke does that even MEAN?
It is LOL worthy, isn't it? She is a concentrator. What kind of concentrator? Well, there is the history of science part, and then there is the studies of women, gender and sexuality part.
She's going far, isn't she. I especially like the science part. Er, that is, history of science. Because that's what businesses need. Not scientists, but historians with a focus on science.
My best guess is she is either a double major or a major/minor in the 2 "disciplines", but I don't know why they would use the word concentrator instead.

I'm thinking it's either a series of classes that fall short of a minor, or it's a bullshit term she thought up to dress up her elective classes.
I've seen some degree programs say things like "economics with a concentration in finance" or something like that...basically the elective courses in the core degree are pre selected to become a "concentration."
Or maybe I'm giving this skirt too much credit.

A long time ago, during the 2008 campaign, a commenter named George Orwell (I think that was him) wrote a really nice but depressing comment about these kinds of people. In short, he likened these people as currants or raisins baked into a loaf of bread: they are spread all over and embedded deep within, and there is no escape from them.
It was a truly great comment, but very sombre.

Shortly before his death, Andrew Breitbart called out four colleges in the U.S. for being full of what he called "totalitarian freaks". Harvard was among them. The full quote:
And that is who's in the White House. And that's ... who would squelch your free speech just as easily as they do at Harvard, Vassar, Yale, Wesleyan - they're a bunch of totalitarian freaks! And they pal around with our friends in the mainstream media."
Thank you, Ms. Korn, for verifying that statment yet again.

I'm not sure this is as benign and laughable as some of you do. I think it is positively chilling.
You put sentiments like this together with the Obama FCC almost launching an investigation into how newpapers, TV, and radio cover the news and a development of "standards" for "critical information" that news consumers need to receive.
It leads to an eventual banishment of "news" that is critical or questioning of the progressive agenda, banishment of educators and curricula that question the progressive agenda, and criminalization of conservative thought.

I used to have the issue where she appeared in it. She revealed in the small sections of text inbetween all the pictures that Trump asked her to visit his penthouse and she accepted.
She is very well put together.
Here's her imdb page.

There was a George Clooney black and white movie a number of years ago about TV media and how the McCarthy hearings would be covered. I think it might have been called something like "Thank You and Good Night".
The Clooney character said, in a very scary moment, someting along those lines: "There aren't always two sides to a story." This justified the "moral spin" that the media uses to gatekeep and preach the doctrine of social justice. They had to be "brave" enough to "speak truth to power" and not toe the corporate line.
I've often wondered if that was just Clooney musing, or if that really was sort of a watershed moment on how the media would cover the news.

“Some stories don’t have two sides. Some stories are simply true. There’s no necessity to give equal time to the ‘other side.’
And this is why we still know that the Sun revolves around the Earth, the world is flat, and little green men live on the moon.

WASHINGTON -- Three Georgia men were charged in federal court this week with plotting an attack against the government designed to trigger martial law and encourage other militias to join their violent uprising.
Brian Edward Cannon, Cory Robert Williamson and Terry Eugene Peace participated in online chats last month about an operation they were planning against the government in February, according to federal prosecutors. Their discussions were reported to the FBI, which had two cooperating witnesses in the case.
Cannon told an FBI cooperating source on Feb. 8 that the group was planning to "start a fight" with the government by attacking power grids, transfer stations and water treatment facilities, which they hoped would trigger martial law, according to prosecutors. Cannon said he would invite the FBI's source to a private Facebook group, where plans were being made, according to the government.
Later, on Feb. 15, Cannon told another FBI informant the types of weapons that Peace allegedly wanted. The FBI gave the cooperating informant 12 non-working pipe bombs and two high-temperature thermite devices. The three men met with the cooperating informant, who handed over the thermite devices. The three suspects were arrested as the cooperating informant went to obtain another box of supplies.
Peace allegedly encouraged members of his militia to review guerrilla warfare tactics, accumulate supplies and prepare their families. He told them that "guerilla (sic) warfare primary targets included TSA, DHS, non-emergency FEMA, road blocks, etc."

And we scratch our heads at how Obama and foul things like him coast to victory.
They know the right words to say to get hired at a wealthy non-profit or government job. Then, to cover their own inadequacies, as they have since adolescence, they will sabotage anyone near them who is productive, leaving them to be the last ones standing.
Eventually, they end up in charge of the Department of Homeland Security.

Some more tidbits on the delightful and demure Ms. Korn,
Ms. Korn writes regularly for both the Crimson and the Harvard Political Review – but is also an active member of Occupy Harvard, the Progressive Jewish Allliance, the Student Labor Action Movement, and BAGELS, “Harvard’s group for bisexual, gay, lesbian, and transgendered Jews.” In her columns, she’s paid tribute to the Black Panthers, celebrated the Occupy movement, and chided those who cheered Kim Jong-Il’s death. She’s opposed allowing ROTC back onto the Harvard campus, one reason being that “nternational students…from countries not allied with the United States” might object to their presence.

She sides with Hamas and the other ME terrorists:
"In her columns, she’s paid tribute to the Black Panthers, celebrated the Occupy movement, and chided those who cheered Kim Jong-Il’s death....She’s written that “[w]hile violent resistance through Hamas is not right,” it’s “not incomprehensible,” given that “non-violent resistance cannot make the international community pay attention to the plight of the Palestinians in Gaza.” And she’s dismissed as “Islamophobia” any statement of the objective fact that anti-Semitism is a core element of contemporary Palestinian identity.
Speaking of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, summer before last Ms. Korn went on a free ten-day trip to Israel courtesy of Taglit-Birthright Israel, then wrote a column savaging the “right-wing rhetoric” she was fed – by which she meant that, for example, her tour guides displayed an unapologetic pride in Israel and were honest about the systematic inculcation of anti-Semitism in Palestinian schools."

Well DUH, if it's a LIBERAL arts college then it should have the very best liberal views and ONLY the very best!
eleventy!
The one good ("just"?) thing is that when the burning times come, these clueless freaks will become food for a variety of newly-feral beings.

That talent is not universally distributed. I am by heritage and physical appearance the type described as "Black Irish". In other words, I "look Jewish". While taking classes on one of the SUNY campuses, it was a pretty common occurrence for a young lady who shares your heritage to express interest and start chatting. It was entertaining to see the look of horror cross their faces when I told them my name.

Why do I have this suspicion that Ching has no idea that "liberal arts" is a reference to a curriculum of study and not (at least in the past) to the political prefernces of the students and faculty?

He is just being honest. There has NEVER been academic freedom. The professor tell you a bunch of nonsense and you parrot it back in order to get a passing grade. You can think your professor is a moron; most of mine were, but you need a degree to get hired, so you go along. You need a degree to get in the front door! Once you get an interview the two of you can decide if the job is for you.
