Just days later, McElroy’s tenure offer unraveled after the university buckled under backlash from Texas Scorecard, a conservative website, and an unspecified group of individuals close to the university who opposed her previous diversity initiatives. A new state law will limit that and the discussion of race and inclusion on college campuses next year.

    Conservatives are opposed to education and should be prohibited from participating in the administration of higher education. If we are allowed to make laws probibiting inclusion of vulnerable groups of people, we need laws probibiting the inclusion of conservatives as well.

    Nearly every act of racism, bigotry, misogyny, homophobia and xenophobia in history has been committed by conservatives. Conservatism should be excluded from polite society and completely shunned by the intelligent among us. Do your part in your daily life by excluding conservatives. It is inappropriate and grotesque to do business with or engage in personal relationships with conservatives.

        That’s a terrible thing to say. Silencing those with opposing viewpoints is not a good path to take.

          I’m good with silencing people who promote violence and hate.

          Also, you replied to a post that was critical of conservatives silencing opposing viewpoints.

          Silencing oppressor groups is almost always a good path to take. Not all viewpoints are valid or worthy of protection.
