So from what I know about international students in Canada, they often have to take courses that they’re not interested in taking because, after all, the University of Waterloo is in the MONEY MAKING business, and International students do not get the same privileges as students born in Canada.
Canadian universities in my opinion, are still superior to many U.S. Universities in many ways; they can also be less expensive for international students. This is why some international students, they’d rather go to a Canadian university rather than an American one.
But let’s call a spade a spade; the current WOKE “Progressive” agenda really sucks, and I am so happy I was born when I was; I’m also disappointed in myself that I really hate POLITICS. By that, I mean the mere thought of being a politician or working in the public sector makes me sick to my stomach.
I feel like it’s beneath me to write about “Gender Studies.” But this is where the POLITICS of Canada has led us. Canada is a developed nation, and a lot of people born in the late 1960s, 1970s and now 1980s are the adults in the room; many of these progressive “teachers” were raised by Pot smoking, low-IQ, Communist hippy parents who had an agenda to remake the educational system.
Now, they’ve DONE it, and these students are stuck with the reality that freedom of speech is GONE and has been replaced with “subjective free speech.” If the “people in charge” say it’s okay for you to say that, then it’s okay; otherwise, you’re a racist bigot who must be CENSORED or isolated.
I’m seeing it more and more; young men are rebelling in a plethora of different ways. When I was growing up, many people were rebelling against the OPPRESSION of the Christian church.
Well, now we’ve reached another era in the Western World in which “ATHIESTIC oppression” has returned. Sure, I could call it Socialism or Communism, but as many people are noticing, the modern “Progressive” politically active folks are using government REGULATIONS to push their agenda.
I’ve stated in plenty a posts on this blog that, Austerity measures are inevitable, that is, unless the Western world is comfortable with economic stagnation. The last great depression was triggered by Herbert Hoover but was expanded by Franklin Delano Roosevelt(FDR), who I like to remind readers kept winning elections in a LANDSLIDE because his loyal supporters imagined that their economic paradise was just over the horizon.
This is where we appear to be now; the western DEVELOPED world has quite a few agendas that “Progressive” types are passionate about, climate change, and, currently, Homosexual, including all other WOKE agendas.
How do you combat that if you’re a young person stuck in a “Gender Studies” class, likely being told to shut up because the people accepting of this woke political agenda are more enlightened than you are?
This stabbing has already been labeled a hate crime, and the Canadian press jumped on it because, recently, in a speech, Justin Trudeau stated that LGBT hate crimes are on the rise, and ofcourse the Progressives have to create more government regulations and spend more money to stop it.
Geovanny Villalba-Aleman is white, and although he’s not a naturalized Canadian, the press and Far Left political Parties can use him to push for “crackdowns” on ever-evolving “Hate Speech.”
Meanwhile, Child Sexual Exploitation in Canada, as well as Pedophilia in Canada, are on the rise, but you’d only know that if you were reading the data because these crimes against children don’t make the news cycle the way Geovanny Villalba-Aleman did because then people would start looking into the perpetrators and discover the interesting avenues these child predators are using to inflict harm on children.
Many of these child predators are using government regulations that are being promoted as “Progressive” to lure children into doing things children otherwise would never do.
You ave to remember these Progressives are getting to these children at a very young age. I imagine some people reading this post feel OFFENDED that I consider modern “gender studies” classes as USELESS because, from a very young age, they were taught a PROGRESSIVE political agenda, that’s to turn them into PERMANENT voters of the Liberal or NDP Party, you know the political Parties that are often supported by the TEACHERS UNIONS.
If “Gender Studies” is eliminated from Universities, some teachers will be out of a job, some book writers will be reliant on the marketplace, and entire industries being propped up by “Gender Studies” will disappear.
Is there really a DEMAND for politically based “Gender Studies”? Gender Studies, the way it’s being taught now, would otherwise be a tough sell for a politician, but if the public schools COMPLICATE Gender Studies, well, then maybe Waterloo University has to do more digging, correct?
Young people talk, and I’m certain a lot of these younger students are asking themselves, “WTF am I doing in here?” Now, most students won’t say a thing, but being forced into many of these useless classes would drive most people INSANE.
Now, I don’t know Geovanny Villalba-Aleman or his motives, but what I do know is that he’s getting a lot national attention right now for a reason.
Interesting times ahead!
