WTF? College Admin. Wants An ‘Intercultural Competency’ Test For Student Government CANDIDATES
Let’s use a ‘litmus test’ to check for progressive values BEFORE candidates are permitted to run for student government. What could possibly go wrong?
The answer: EVERYTHING.
We’re at a dangerous point, America.
Anything to the Right of Karl Marx is being branded as ‘hate speech’. Despite that being protected speech, there are the Free Speech Deniers — many on college campuses — that are advocating censorship.
Look at what happened to Ann Coulter’s Berkeley speech.
And so many others like Charles Murray.
Ben Shapiro gets the ‘No Platforming’ treatment regularly and discusses it here.
Now colleges are getting really bold:
Time to impose ‘litmus tests’ to ensure that people are sufficiently ‘Progressive’ before they are permitted to run for student government.
Watch what happened at Clemson University in South Carolina:
The “intercultural competency” test requirement for Student Government candidates who wish to run for office was just one of the ideas Altheia Richardson, Clemson’s Director of the Gantt Multicultural Center, proposed in a recent presentation to Clemson Undergraduate Student Government (CUSG) Senate. As an alternative, Richardson also suggested group training for CUSG members once elected.
“So when it comes to this whole idea of intercultural competence, what would it look like to have a standard for if you’re going to be elected as an officer, or hold a seat within CUSG, that you have to demonstrate that you have a certain level of intercultural competence, before you’re allowed to take that office, or that seat,” Richardson stated, according to CUSG Senate’s public livestream.
When asked by one CUSG senator to elaborate on “the standard for intercultural competency,” Richardson responded that “it could be training, workshops, things like that. It could look very different, but it was just a suggestion that I made to some of the folks that came to me.”
In a follow-up question, the senator asked whether Richardson was “implying that if there’s a threshold that people who have been elected democratically to this body, are then not allowed to serve those peers, because of a certain level they don’t reach in certain areas.”
“Well, it could happen before the democratic election process,” she answered. “If that is set by your Elections Board as a standard, then if you’re vetting the candidates who are running, then it can happen even before the democratic process takes place.”

Could you even imagine the outrage if this was said by someone on the Right?
Especially a white man paid a reported $100,000 a year by a college.
This ‘modest proposal’ would mean that conservative candidates — ones that oppose amnesty, ‘sanctuary campus’ status, the racist teaching of ‘white privilege’, or the aggressive pushing of the ever-expanding LGBT agenda — could be filtered out before the electoral process.
That’s the opposite of democratic.
It would leave conservative leaning students with no voice.
And that’s the goal.
This book needs to be shared with college students, high school students and the wussified faculty of those institutions.
It’s not ok to shout down half of the country because you don’t like what they have to say.
Engage them.
Question them.
And show them where they’re going wrong.
That’s what we do.
You’re welcome.
ClashDaily.com’s, Editor-In-Chief, Doug Giles addresses our nation’s abysmal wussification in his NEW book …
The Effeminization Of The American Male
by Doug Giles
Doug Giles, best-selling author of Raising Righteous And Rowdy Girls and Editor-In-Chief of the mega-blog, ClashDaily.com, has just penned a book he guarantees will kick hipster males into the rarefied air of masculinity.
That is, if the man-child will put down his frappuccino; shut the hell up and listen and obey everything he instructs them to do in his timely and tornadic tome.
In The Effeminization Of The American Male, Giles takes ‘Crispin’ from the unaccomplished, prissy and dank corridors of ‘Wussville’ up the steep, treacherous and unforgiving trail that leads to ‘Mantown.’
“Secretly, everybody’s getting tired of political correctness, kissing up. That’s the kiss-ass generation we’re in right now. We’re really in a p*ssy generation.” – Clint Eastwood
This is definitely one of the most politically incorrect books to ever hit the market.
It will most certainly offend the entitled whiners, but it will also be a breath of fresh air to young males who wish to be men versus hipster dandies.
