Remember when colleges were institutions of higher learning, rather than social programming? There's a significant problem today with students too burnt out from protesting and advocacy that they're failing their classes.

Today's college campus is The Matrix, an artificial world that has isolated itself from the harsh realities of real life. Once you leave The Matrix, you're going to encounter a world that doesn't treat you like the toddler your campus has. It won't bow to your demands. There are no safe zones. Nobody cares if you claim to be triggered.

Its going to be interesting to see how these students deal with life after they take the red pill.

Well, that's what they're originally designed for, to actually teach you something you couldn't just learn in the work force so you could be a productive member of society.

When you take away the nuclear family, you take away the core that builds a strong society. If you look at the people that are incarcerated, who are a part of the largest prison population in the world, you'll find there's a common variable. It's not race, socioeconomic status, gun ownership, or region. It is a lack of a father or a very weak father.

Our destruction of families is the leading cause of crime in America.

Universities have the power to end any entrenched tradition in just a few years at this point and it seems like they are just doing this shit on a whim. If they keep pushing this polyamory shit in a few years itll turn into the next gay media crusade until the supreme court legalizes polygamy.

I'm starting to think that there's merit in the belief that hedonism will be the downfall of western superiority.

Poly relationships have existed throughout history, and are noted with approval throughout the Bible.

Conservatives are for individual liberty, free from governmental interference. If a group of consenting adults want to establish a poly relationship or marriage, why should we object?

Personally, I don't really care what number of any gendered people are sticking their genitals in whatever holes. I morally disagree with it, but I don't want to ban it.

My problem is that this invariably becomes MUH CIVIL RIGHTS and people are forced to support this sort of lifestyle under threat of having their businesses taken away by the government.

Actually, I don't think you've read the Bible. Most of the OT is given without commentary, just "this happened, then this happened" and you see the consequences of actions. Pretty much 100% of the time you see polygamy cause horrible horrible things. Abraham, Jacob, David (especially David, this caused the destruction of the whole country), Solomon. Polygamy happened. Zero times does it get affirmed by God as ever being good.

Sure but if that's already the reality in most colleges why does the university need to push people to accept it? Why is a private institution playing a role in students' sex lives at all? It's creepy

It's incredible how quickly the values the West has held more or less since Greece 2600 years ago are being replaced with an "anything goes" attitude. People should have the freedom to date as many people as they want at once but having schools actually condone and encourage it is very disturbing.

I'm pretty sure the ancient Greeks aren't the best example if you're talking about sexual values...given their widespread pederasty.

I'm pretty sure Greek culture is about as far from Western Culture AD 1850 as ours is from AD 1850's. P sure we don't have harems of little boys like Greeks did

The pendulum will swing back. Children are naturally very conservative. It takes great wickedness to corrupt their natural love of what is right and good.

[–]JakeC1597 [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

The government is pretty wicked. If we keep allowing children to be indoctrinated by this bullshit we're only gonna be in this mess longer.

Not all parents are willing to sacrifice their children to the idol of political correctness.

Plato was a smart man but his Republic is a dystopia of the first order. The less the state is involved in raising our children, the better. A moral people will pass that morality to the next generation. Teach your children right from wrong.

Republic is a dystopia of the first order.

Isn't that the point of Republic? Plato's Laws deals with the founding of a much more practical regime. Plato was certainly aware of the impossibility of founding the regime found in Republic. The interlocutors are, after all, founding a regime in speech, not in deed. This regime may not take fully into account the basic text of human nature.

I don't give a fuck if individuals want to do whatever on their own, but that's totally different from having our institutions of higher learning hijacked to push these values on people.

Universities should be teaching the subjects their students came there to learn, and aside from that, avoiding any kind of official promotion of a particular social agenda.

EDIT: fixed obvious spelling mistake.

All funded by your tax dollars through grants and student loans. Want to make America great again? Start by pulling the federal government entirely out of the education game. Let's face it, Donald Trump has many accomplishments to recommend him for the Presidency, but Trump University is not one of them.

Over the past fifty years universities have shifted away from being places of learning to indoctrination centers, and with that indoctrination comes a lot of highly paid positions, like Dean of Diversity, Dean of Multiculturalism, Dean of Lesbian and Otherkin Affairs, etc. etc..

Want to improve the country and save money? Let these precious snowflakes work. If Trump follows through with his promises to follow policies that look out for American workers over foreign labour and the companies that exploit them, the job picture for the American worker should greatly improve.

Let them look at their paycheck being eaten away by payroll taxes. If they start making serious money, let them see their raises eaten away by federal, state, or even municipal income taxes. Then let them holler that they want to keep their own money.

You don't need to spend $100,000 to read Simone de Beauvoir and come to the conclusion that being a housewife can be drudgery.

College was once meant for those who excelled in high school to continue that excellence to society's benefit. Now it has become a very expensive baby-sitting service.

And what's wrong with that? If consenting adults want a poly relationship then let them.

[–]castlecrasher2 [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

There's a reason even /r/relationships says "don't do it" to people who ask if a poly relationship is a good idea. People are free to do as they please but for a university to back this sort of thing as normal and without consequences is absurd.

I agree. Individual choice is individual choice. Don't push anything on me.

For some reason conservatives have conceded colleges and universities to liberals and progressives. It's no surprise at all that our morals and ideals aren't present there - we have no presence there.

Polyamory is good because it brings everything out in the open. No more cheating etc. Also really helps people learn to communicate, learn to use condoms and safe sex a whole lot better than anywhere else, helps with jealousy issues, lots of positives even for straight people like myself. :D

But,

Universities as the delivery mechanism or the pusher of Polyamory seem really out of place? From the article it looks more like groups around the universities are using the university resources to hold conferences and such which makes the title misleading.

God damn I'm so glad I decided to drop out of school this year and pursue a career in HVAC. I'm already making more money than any of my college friends could possibly make, and I paid to be sent to a max of two day long classes to get certified for different systems. I'm only 19, and I'm already enjoying the benefits of working and contributing to society much more than paying thousands of dollars to get liberal ideals shoved down my throat everyday while at college.

Title statement not supported by the article. "Universities [are] actively pushing"? No. Some student groups, maybe.

So now instead of "You're just mad you don't have a girlfriend" they'll say "You're just mad you only have one".
