I effing love Yale and Yalies. They contribute to culture, civilization and the economy, making New Haven an interesting, diverse city in a state that values education for everyone with choices for every type of education. I know it’s an elitist school but the contributions of Yale benefit the world in a meaningful way and I am proud of that every time I hear something positive in the news.

Yale has given us some of the most evil people ever to exist. I sure wish colleges were liberal indoctrination camps, because Yale and Harvard sure do seem to produce a fuck ton of fascists.

The formula for fascism begins with the singular desire to micromanage the world by any means possible. Stereotyping and labeling, fueled by contempt. What impels us to do this is fear. Fear of otherness. Losing ground. Paranoia. Language. You don’t need money, culture, religion or a certain education to be a fascist, just xenophobia.
It’s important to fight terrorism, censorship and violence, we must condemn hatred whenever see it, thus I speak to you. However, I urge you to resist wholesale contempt because then it won’t matter what you call yourself or what your goals are, you will become like them and the outcome will be the same. The methods make the results and the results are what matter most.

I think it's more a feature of being raised rich and privileged than the universities fault. Hell, my college was known for having spoiled brats as students but pushed diversity requirements for GE and every major separately. Still has racist fascists as graduates. Then again, most of the money the school gets is from donations to the petroleum engineering and business school and I don't know what their requirements are
