Thomas Jefferson High School

Insulting to its namesake. Our greatest political mind is rolling in his grave.

The wokesters are trying to cancel Jefferson from University of Virginia which he founded. And they’ll succeed.

This was done to spare the feelings of other students who were not high achievers. Over 1200 students were denied the opportunity for college scholarships as a result.



This can't be real, can it?

Academia in this country needs a purge. And frankly most women shouldn’t be allowed in the field. It should be close to 60-70% male.

I would like one of our resident left-leaning posters to explain the reasoning from these two school administrators.

I’m not for that. But let’s be honest. TJ had issues. Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t he boffing his 14 year old slave girl when he was 44 or so? That’s Epstein level plus.

It’s not defensible if true. But right now the evidence is the blog post of a pissed off parent. The administrators have never been asked publicly. (The post and the article based on it cite hearsay from the pissed off parent.) That’s the state of journalism today where a one-sided blog post becomes a story that somehow becomes truth.

I think it’s likely to be true in whole or in part. It certainly sounds plausible based on the fricked up state of the world. But the proof at this point is a little thin.

He also lived in a different era, where 14 was marriage age.

Why is that school named Thomas Jefferson?

Should be renamed George Floyd immediately.

It is a pissed off parent but this is in the article.

quote:

On September 16 of this year, National Merit sent a letter to Bonitatibus listing 240 students recognized as Commended Students or Semi-Finalists. The letter included these words in bold type: “Please present the letters of commendation as soon as possible since it is the students’ only notification.”

National Merit hadn’t included enough stamps on the package, but nevertheless it got to Bonitatibus by mid-October—before the October 31 deadline for early acceptance to select colleges. In an email, Bonitatibus told Yashar that she had signed the certificates “within 48 hours.” But homeroom teachers didn’t distribute the awards until Monday, November 14, after the early-application deadlines had passed. Teachers dropped the certificates unceremoniously on students’ desks.


The kids got the awards but it took nearly two months, the parent is upset that they received the award after the early application deadline and also that there was no recognition on the behalf of the school on their awards.

Well, he didn’t marry her, so by the standards of his age she was a whore and he was a whoremongerer.

Dude, there is no defense for boffing a 14 year old you own. I don’t care when it was.

Well your DNC overlords do it on the regs these days. Diddle kids. So you should either turn in your tranny librarian card or recheck your talking points.

Not to discredit this fine thread, but is there a better source on this story besides "city-journal.org"?


It’s an influential academic and public policy publication that has been around for 30+ years.

Swing and a miss.

Merry Christmas, baw.

TJ was a brilliant mind. But he was a shitty person by any age’s standard. Any old man who boffs a 14 year old is, no matter what “standards of the day” prevailed.

The hate for Thomas Jefferson is not even subtle. The principal is calling it TJ’s like it’s a fricking restaurant. She does not even want to address the school by the white oppression it’s name.
