Why does Fox News hate OU?

QuoteIf there's anything right wing world hates, it's diversity awareness which, they believe, is just an excuse to shame white folks into thinking that it's not OK to treat minorities with the kind of contempt that you see on Fox News. Check out Outnumbered's attempts to say that a college "celebration of diversity" is really all about dividing people. Got irony?

The latest thing to throw right wing world into a tizzy is the Univ. of Oklahoma's School of Engineering's celebration of diversity which, according to Glen Beck's "The Blaze," is really an attempt to OMG "shame its white male students into admitting and accepting their 'privilege'." (cuz there's really no such thing as white privilege, right?)  This sinister interpretation of the diversity awareness event isn't shared by the school which describes it as a way to "recognize the individual cultural richness that GCoE students, faculty and staff bring to all aspects of our college." But for Fox, this is yet another harbinger of the end times so Outnumbered is, as a public service, giving national attention to this latest affront to white people.

One partisan news outlet reporting on another partisan news outlet is newsworthy?  SRSLY?

When a revolution comes, its always the intellectuals who are the first to be eliminated or marginalized. Universities are a target rich environment!

It is the same thin you see with "tolerance."  Hate groups love to point out that you are intolerant of their hate. Therefore, their hate is really the tolerant side.

Same with diversity. "Diversity" is pointing out and embracing differences, so it is really more bigoted than ignoring anyone that is different than you.

Also, cutting taxes on the wealthiest is really a way to help the poor. Whereas programs to help the poor are really trapping them in poverty.

Hatred is tolerance.
Bigotry is diversity.
And poverty is wealth.

Got it?
