In a far more innocent time, the silly, offbeat shtick of college students – such as goldfish swallowing, packing themselves into phone booths, etc. – was called “college whimsey”. And “dhimmitude is a Muslim concept, in which people with non-Islamic beliefs could retain those beliefs and not be forced to convert, but had to pay a tax for the privilege of doing so – a little like the hard-left looney-tunes in colleges around the country whose tuition enables them to be just as looney as they want.
From this we get (actually, I just made up) the term “College Dhimsey”, to describe the looney-tune behavior of some college students.
Want an example? No problem at all.
Excerpted from Eric Owens’ article at dailycaller.com:
A group of students at American University protested on campus this week to demand the sacking of a member of the school’s board of trustees because the trustee, Gary Cohn, met with President-elect Donald Trump to discuss serving as Trump’s energy secretary.
Cohn, the president of Goldman Sachs and a former commodities trader, met with Trump on Monday.
By Tuesday, reports Campus Reform, an American University student group called the Community Action and Social Justice Coalition had started a Facebook page entitled — in yuge font — “DUMP TRUMP, FIRE COHN.”
“American University Trustee Gary Cohn met with President-elect Donald Trump. Cohn, as a member of the board has voting power to influence our tuition, our status as a sanctuary campus, and whether our [sic] not we divest from fossil fuels and other oppressive industries,” the Facebook page reads, in part.
“There’s no place for Trump’s hate at American University, or on its Board of Trustees. Gary Cohn has already proven himself a special interest beholden to Wall Street and Big Oil — not the AU community.”
A year of tuition, fees and room and board at American University currently runs each student about $62,500.
By way of comparison, the median income of an entire household in the United States is $56,516, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
The day after Trump’s surprising presidential election victory, a somewhat rowdy group of American University students took out their frustration by burning American flags.
“Fuck Trump,” protesters chanted, according to Washington, D.C. Fox affiliate WTTG.
This is dhimmitude at its finest.
$62,500 a year – sometimes paid by the student him/herself but more often than not paid by mommy and daddy – buys an insulated environment where they can indulge their most infantile indoctrinated/ideological wet dreams without fear of anyone explaining to them just how infantile, indoctrinated and ideological they are.
But if someone tried, they could, of course, go running to a “safe place”….or maybe just hold their ears and yell LALALALALALALALALALALA so they wouldn’t have to hear a thing.
College Dhimsey. How perfectly it will serve them….until they have to rejoin the real world.
$62,500 a year – sometimes paid by the student him/herself but more often than not paid by mommy and daddy.
I would add to the above also funded by taxpayer student loans, that often go unpaid.
