Frats are hotbeds of groupthink, and people who join them are simply earning their doctorate in conformity.
I was glad to hear that the OSU fraternity was evicted from campus grounds on account that "we at OSU won't help bigots." Good to see bullshit called for what it is.
Off to read about the retards in Texas, biaf.
eta: holy Christ on a skewer, how'd the author of those rules even pass a college English exam?

I don't know what show it was, I tuned into it on PBS and they were handing little girls different dolls to play with. Some dolls were caucasian and some weren't. Most (all?) the girls wanted to play with the cauc dols, regardless of their race and (apparent) upbringing.
Apparently the 'racial' thing is far deeper ingrained.
Wish I had watched the whole show. It was on a PBS subchannel last week sometime in the afternoon.
(I was supposed to be working, and wasn't able to get name of the show)
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Racism, sexism, and homophobia are serious problems in pretty much every country. Basically, any type of "ism" or "phobia" involving hating or thinking one is superior to another group of people, is a problem throughout the world. Yes, sometimes they are worse in some places than in others, The problem is that someone shouldn't pretend that these issues aren't really "that bad" in their country just because they are worse in another. That is essentially a fallacy of relative privation.
