Remember Gibson’s Bakery? An Oberlin College Dean led a Social Justice war on a local small business. They created a crime fabricated a narrative to substantiate it then tried to ruin the Bakery.
Remember Gibson’s Bakery? The SJW establishment tried to cancel them back in 2016 after some black yutes were caught trying to steal wine. The College embarked on a war with students, teachers, and administrators, labeling the Bakery as racist.
Following the original judgment for 11.2 Million in damages, the Jury in Gibson’s Bakery v Oberlin College has awarded additional punitive damages of 22 million. All because, in their opinion, Oberlin’s involvement showed malice toward the local business owner.
Long story short some black students were arrested for shoplifting at Gibson’s Bakery. SJW staff and students from neighboring Oberlin College (including a Dean), claimed Gibson’s was racist. Gibson’s claimed their accusations were false and harmed their business. A jury just awarded the Bakery $11.2 million in damages.
Oberlin College is at the forefront of social justice outrage hoaxes but until recently had not reported any real-world consequences. See what I did there? Real world? Mizzou went full-stupid with their fake outrage which cost them, and cost them and cost them, and then cost them some more. Evergreen took it to another level, and now they … Read more
The New York Post Headline put it this way. “Students at Lena Dunham’s college offended by lack of fried chicken.” Students at an ultra-liberal Ohio college are in an uproar over the fried chicken, sushi and Vietnamese sandwiches served in the school cafeterias, complaining the dishes are “insensitive” and “culturally inappropriate.” Gastronomically correct students at … Read more
We have long argued that there is a great deal of hate being manufactured by the left. It is their stock in trade, if not as kindling for the fires that drive them personally, then as accelerant to divide the nation into bits they can then pander too in pursuit of power. Well here is … Read more
Mohammad Jafer Mahallati is on indefinite administrative leave. The former UN Ambassador from Iran (1987-1989) has been implicated in his crimes against humanity, but Oberlin College hired him anyway. Now, they are paying him to do nothing.
The state of Virginia used to threaten residents with revocation of their driver’s license if they failed or refused to pay court fines or fees. Any fee or fine, regardless of the offense. The law has been changed, but not before a lawsuit was filed, and the plaintiffs were left holding the bag full of … Read more
This is the main repository for Progressives saying the quiet parts out loud – they don’t like America, really don’t like Americans that won’t jackboot to their outlook, and really do hate the US Constitution (and most State ones as well). Their own words tell us that! Daniel Henninger of the Wall Street Journal sums … Read more
Sheesh. Week ago Monday was the Gilford School Board meeting where they were going to revisit Masking on a District basis given the rise of infection in our local area. Both sides were well represented – certainly, I was on the side that it is the PARENTS’ decision even if the kids are “in the … Read more
When I think of Yelp!, it reminds me of Friendster, StumbleUpon, Google+, and MySpace. I had little to no use for any of those (experimented on Google+ a bit). So, this latest announcement only affirms my indifference to their existence. Yelp! has decided it will be flagging businesses as racist.
An Oberlin College Dean lead a Social Justice war on a local small business. They created a crime fabricated a narrative to substantiate it then tried to ruin Gibson’s Bakery. Gibson’s sued and won tens of millions. So, how will #woke Oberlin cut costs? Fire hourly employees.
New Hampshire is always looking for jackpot justice and milking large corporations for one-time payouts. It is disgusting — another hidden tax on consumers. MBTE contamination was one such case, and opioids are the next big payoff, but should they pay?
As Democrats embark on their determined quest to unseat President Trump, it’s no coincidence that our national discourse has turned to issues like school busing, racial injustice, and the evils of slavery. While Democrats seem eager to exploit those issues for political advantage, most Americans believe they belong in the history books. Slavery was never … Read more
In the age of President Trump, the media has a job to do. Advertise ideas that support narratives about Trump and Republicans dishing hate. But an expert has uncovered an inconvenient truth. That 7 in 10 hate crimes are hoaxes.
This recurring theme is both fascist and totalitarian, but then, that’s where Democrats are as a party. It is where you will find their leadership and higher profile water carriers. Your ideas are evil, so we can be mean to you until you sit down, shut up, and let us win.
Democrats demonstrate their lack in trust of you as a fellow citizen with every breath. Their legislative priorities deny you resources. Regulatory endeavors shift decision making from individuals or job creators to bureaucrats. You can’t even lay claim to how you vote; they insist third parties and foreign interlopers manipulated you.
Victor Davis Hanson observes that “…colleges are becoming the incubators of progressive hatred of Jews…” This is concerning but does it ring true? Is higher education working to make anti-Semitism respectable again? Are we seeing a rise of racism? Certainly there is an appearance of a growing culture of intolerance on campuses across America. Requirements … Read more
Speech codes, hate speech, compelled speech (preferred pronouns), free speech zones, are all tools the left uses to control the language. College Campuses are ground zero for this nonsense, but Texas isn’t having it.
