Black LGBT administrator fired from ULTRA liberal college for racist remark

Sorry for being late on this one, I had to pick myself off the floor as a result of being shocked, as the Claremont Colleges would be on anyone in the know's top 10 bat shite crazy progressive liberal colleges.

Jonathan Higgins was hired just last month to head the Claremont Colleges’ resource center for queer students.
But after conservative media publicly called him out for his tweets remarking on police, white gay people and “well-meaning white women,” Higgins is out of a job at the consortium of institutions that tout themselves as highly progressive.
Last week, The College Fix, a student-written national news website with a conservative bent, published a piece about anonymous students who were uncomfortable with some of Higgins’s Twitter postings.
The website focused first on an April tweet in which Higgins replied to the question “who are you automatically wary of/keep at a distance because of your past experiences?”
“White gays and well-meaning white women,” Higgins answered.
In another tweet the website pulled, Higgins talked about law enforcement: “I finally have nothing to say other than police are meant to service and protect white supremacy.”
In June, Higgins slammed “#heterosexualprideday,” a hashtag playing off Pride Month for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community.
“So y’all been real quiet about #heterosexualprideday, I mean I thought I’d see parades celebrating rape culture, homophobia and transphobia,” he wrote.
And he added in a separate tweet: “Oh wait: y’all do that every day …”

The logical conclusion of contemporary cultural Marxist thought leads to a high amount of internal contradictions that don't allow for any sort of unity. They should have stuck to class warfare, because this shite divides literally every grouping against one another.

Higgins, who is black and queer, wrote in a message to Inside Higher Ed that he felt he was targeted because he focuses on queer students of color in his work ...
Claremont college facts:
Total undergrads: 1,344
white: 565
black: 67
Tuition & Fees $49,045
Room & Board $15,280
Total Cost $64,325
So this guy had a job probably serving around 5-10 people.

Some colleges in that consortium are as far left as its possible to get. Some others are fairly middle of the road

Scripps is a feminist mecca
Ponoma is TreeHugger U.
Claremont McKenna is Bernie Sanders Land
Pitzer is the original SJWU
Harvey Mudd is the engineering school, I guess you could call it middle of the road.
Their womens teams are called the Athenas, after the Greek goddess. Men are known as the Stags, but are jokingly referred to by a rhyming word because of the colleges' reputation.

They fired him because he's the bastard half brother of Clay Higgins, and they just found out.
Nothing to do with his views personally

That's the problem with reinforcing the idea that everyone is a victim. Eventually the different victim groups are going to fight against each other for who is the biggest victim.

Good for them. He sounds racist and anything but inclusive

I wonder if he hates his heterosexual parents for procreating and producing him.

And he sounds paranoid as frick for a guy who got a do-nothing job.
Dude, you were handed a gravy train with biscuit wheels and you couldn't just pretend to not be a total racist?
What an idiot - even crazy has limitations - and like the French and Russian Revolutions - the progressives have begun feasting on their own.
