A college student who asked “Should White Boys Still Be Allowed to Talk?” in an opinion article for her college newspaper and was characterized online by some as racist wants to set the record straight, telling Yahoo Lifestyle, “I do not hate white people.”
Leda Fisher, a senior at Dickinson Collegein Carlisle, Pa., published the piece Thursday in the student-run newspaper theDickinsonian criticizing white male students for taking up space in underserved areas to validate narrow-minded opinions.
When you ask a question at a lecture, is it secretly just your opinion ending with the phrase ‘do you agree?’ If so, your name is something like Jake, or Chad, or Alex, and you were taught that your voice is the most important in every room,” Fisher wrote in her opinion piece. “Somewhere along your academic journey, you decided your search for intellectual validation was more important than the actual exchange of information. Now how do you expect to actually learn anything?”
“American society tells men, but especially white men, that their opinions have merit and that their voice is valuable, but after four years of listening to white boys in college, I am not so convinced,”

She's probably fun at parties.

Progressivism is a cult. Only a zombie would have such a ridiculous opinion

Gotta love Journalists taking the "no such thing as bad publicity" approach

I hope she is triggered EVERY FREAKING DAY by every white boy she encounters.

Yes. We should definitely give these types of things more attention.
Goddammit, internet.

Nothing says have empathy for the oppressed quite like becoming the oppressor yourself.

Society tells us quite the opposite lately.
This chick is just another college 22 year old who thinks she's smarter than everyone else. The quest for maximum wokeness is led by a bunch of idiots.

Ah yes, I remember all of my elementary school teachers making sure we knew this.

I must have missed it. I, like most young overactive boys, was told just to shut up in class.

shite like this is hilarious. Fisher's opinions aren't unique. She's not interesting. She's regurgitating dumb progressive tropes that are ubiquitous in any college classroom. She has no life experience. Her fabricated stories of being disrespected as a female or POC are identical to the same stories told by every other enlightened 21 year old on a liberal arts campus. People like her add nothing to the collegiate experience. I'll be blunt, people like her are genuinely worthless from an academic perspective.
We're at the point where a redneck speaking in only Trump quotes provides more intellectual diversity than all of these hive-minded loons.

It’s really tough being a white man these days...

This is what the future of our kids is. So if you have white sons...better teach them how to stand up for themselves, and not be a bunch of cucks like the baby boomer generation produced. you know the ones that voted for obama to make themselves feel better instead of what is logically right in their minds.
As I mentioned before I literally heard a head of a "womens work rights" advocate say that it was unfortunate that this country was founded by white men. Many foreigners coming here since the 60s/70s from socialist country's have really started to infiltrate the mindset here.
