Now the question is, will insurance pay for it. In many cases it won’t which is stupid. I’ll get it regardless. Should the medical practice(s) consider providing these shots for free? It seems like a good value-add for the patients they serve.

It’s fine with me if you wish to compare the impact of someone speaking on campus perhaps once in a student’s lifetime to the daily influence of faculty. It’s obviously a very dumb thing to do but you are now off your soapbox and back into partisan mode. Have at it.

teef Posted September 16 Posted September 16 17 minutes ago, JDHillFan said: I agree with you regarding the “anti-American” part. It’s hyperbole in my estimation. Your belief that 18yo’s who don’t know sh*t about life show up on campus and are somehow immune to the messaging they get from faculty that is OVERWHELMINGLY liberal, is nonsense. i mean this i completely agree with. campuses are notoriously liberal. i'm not disputing that at all. it's been that way for decades, so this is nothing new at all. the idea that a group of radial liberals who want to tear the world is the new group of graduates is the flavor right now. i don't agree with that aspect. we just don't see droves of liberals graduating and taking over. it's just not happening. we all know kids who are recently graduated that do show a liberal side. how many of those same students over a few years lean right back in the other direction. once economics and family is involved, ideas that are important shift, and people leans towards a side. my wife is that perfect example. she went from rallying for obama while in college, to screaming, "thanks biden" any time the cost of eggs went up a nickel. we don't engineer kids. we can direct them to be safe, smart, considerate, etc but we don't get to pick who they become. nor do colleges. 22 minutes ago, AlBUNDY4TDS said: If it's so easy, please elaborate. on what? can you contribute to this or what? 1
Joe Ferguson forever Posted September 16 Posted September 16 Good to know Churchill never said this but the first part of this quote is true. 2. Is “If you’re not a liberal when you’re 25, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative by the time you’re 35, you have no brain” a Churchill quote? “There is no record of anyone hearing Churchill say this,” says The Churchill Centre. Furthermore, British author and historian Paul Addison of Edinburgh University says: “Surely Churchill can’t have used the words attributed to him. He’d been a Conservative at 15 and a Liberal at 35! And would he have talked so disrespectfully of Clemmie, who is generally thought to have been a lifelong Liberal?”
teef Posted September 16 Posted September 16 17 minutes ago, Lost said: Just one of many examples to reinforce this point. It's not just the faculty but the people writing the curriculum. the faculty a lot of the time writes the curriculum. i can't tell you home many texts i bought just to read one chapter of a book that the professor wrote. i can't hear the audio from where i am, but what class was this?

You want to draw an equivalence between a one-time campus speaker and full-time faculty messaging over a course of years. Go for it. You got an “awesome” reaction from Redhawk. That should scare you. I notice you didn’t react to the latest venom from bullbuchanan. Your brand of straight-shooting sucks. It’s only straight when viewed through a political lens.

As seen by observances around the world, Kirk most certainly had an audience. I suspect most of his audience gave him more than 5 minutes to make a determination on his thoughts, unlike you. Nobody argues the fact that American universities are overwhelmingly liberal in their political leanings. Some apparently want to dispute that this means anything. Those people would be liberals. Laughable.

Roundybout Posted September 16 Posted September 16 1 hour ago, Lost said: Instead of teaching students to look for the good in others, colleges are amplifying victim culture. Faculty encourage students to engage in some sort of activism which in itself is finding issue you are passionate about and faulting anyone who disagrees with your position. Abortion, Palestine, etc. These are highly subjective social issues that will be debated til the end of time and often have no "right" or "wrong" position but you wouldn't know that if you walked onto many college campuses today. I see nothing wrong with encouraging people to get interested in civic participation. Hell, that’s just good citizenship. I guess the “failure,” if any, is figuring out a way to do it constructively. But my goodness, you’d think these colleges were hanging USSR flags and making students read Peter Kropotkin as a prerequisite. I went to a pretty “liberal” school and the most we did was a little bit of Hegel and Marx for my philosophy minor.

I have not accused anyone of “manipulating” young people. That’s a matter of your inability to read with discernment. I have stated that 18yo’s show up on campus not knowing how to cross the street safely and find themselves in an atmosphere OVERWHELMINGLY liberal in nature. That is not debatable. You want to imagine that has no bearing on the personal development of young people. Weird position to hold.

nedboy7 Posted September 16 Posted September 16 I think the idea of education itself is leftist ideology to you guys. I wonder if that comment is hate speech now though and I should be careful.
