Boston University Keeps sending me “Bostonia,” which touts itself as being THE Alumni magazine of BU. Forty years later, I still have no idea how they found me up here in NH (never gave them my address); they keep sending me this rag.
I used to read it, but as it drifted Leftward in its positioning and presentation (as opposed to its down-the-middle description of “alumni of note”), I graduated to merely reviewing the Obits – and then, for years, just tossed it away.
They continue to disappoint me, and I’m sure I’ve disappointed them. I’ve never given them a dime over the decades. Glad, too, given that its current “luminaries,” US CongressTwit AOC and Critical Race Theory grifter Professor Ibram X. Kendi, are the face of BU when it comes to Politics. But now this.
The latest issue.
I dryly note that guns don’t divide a country, people do, but that would ruin their Narrative, wouldn’t it?
I didn’t toss it right away, thinking I’d read it a bit later. Months later, I just read it Saturday morning. Much to my unsurprise, the slant and bias of both the writer and who she interviewed was quite present. So I decided to leave some comments. I was respectful but I guess calling AOC a “CongressTwit” and Ibram X Kendi, the BU Professor, who is now under investigation of “missing” millions of dollars given to his “Anti-Racism Center”, a “grifter”. Other than that, and stating that Bostonia had slide Leftward over the years, I was actually very respectful. Truely, I was!
That included the one in which I stated that with the deliberate destruction by the Left of traditional American norms and mores, the problem isn’t with an inanimate object but with the minds, hearts, and souls of those that would have the mindset to make such a horrible decision to follow though with actions that would take peoples’ lives. Until the Left finally recognized that, this is merely ignoring the actual root cause.
And I was duly rewarded before I could save of the page to bring them here , the moderator deleted them. I HATE wasting time and they were pretty good, too (IMHO)! Even my last comment in following up the other deletions, in which I said
“for a politically self-categorized article, it’s clear that my political world isn’t acceptable at BU anymore) got deleted.
So, back to the trash can they go. After all:
Groucho Marx: I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.
