Classic Stossel: Campus Censorship
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2021
- Students today are kept away from words and ideas they may find disturbing.
"The Silencing” author, Kirsten Powers, says colleges are “ground zero” in the fight for free speech, but George Mason Professor Jeremy Mayer says complaints about censorship are right wing paranoia.

Powers also argues that leftists have gone from opposing censorship to supporting it. They even attack their own for stepping outside left-wing orthodoxy; people who say the wrong thing lose jobs.
A Stossel Classic from 2015.

Childish, tyrannical adults? Daycare is stress free and a safe space. The real world is NEITHER and they’re making it worse.
Stossel is biased but he is more open than other journalists.
Need to find new news sources, skip the cable news. Started watching News Nation Now and Breaking Points.
@@Xckel13 lol breaking points.
@@10speed4 Everyone is biased. Being honest about it is becoming rare. Objectivity is sharing facts even when you wish they were false or disagree.

Exactly right well said.
The Georgetown Professor clearly demonstrates that he is an enabler of this violent rhetoric by constantly making excuses for the verbal and physical harassment by students!
"communist agitator"
Agreed. "Oh, they're just 20 year olds."
Look, you're either an adult or you're not. We can argue about where/when that line should be, but at least have the intellectual integrity to choose a consistent position.
@@cleverwitticismhere6922 If they want to treat them like children then move voting and consent ages to 25.
@@cleverwitticismhere6922 funny thing about that, is that's the same age group that makes up alot of our military. These kids get triggered from words in chalk on the ground. Meanwhile their military peers were dealing with the horrors of war. Then those same college kids look down on the military ones because they're less "educated".
@@doop6769
You'd think that, but you'd be wrong. Even in the military, it's all over the place.
Restrictions on what you can say because you might hurt someone's feelings; equating words to actual violence; punishing anyone that expresses a different opinion even if they offer factual evidence to support said opinion.
(And before anyone says I don't know what I'm talking about; I joined in 2008 and I am still active.)
“This is insanity.” The most profound and accurate statement in this video.

@@peterpan8263 I’d like to see more competition in higher education, and K-12, with more private schools and less unions. Perhaps one day teachers will make really good money, enjoy teaching, love students and help students learn how to think for themselves. Crazy, ik

Let someone call the professor names and see if he puts on his "big boy " pants.
He is a dummy, plain and simple.

They're on one side of the tyranny coin. Those of all colors who see themselves as supremacists are on the other. Globalists spin it on the table. Watch the Agenda videos by Curtis Bowers. Links the globalist Marxists from the 1930's all the way to Obama and this current administration in a very sobering look at our country. Bowers is no joke. Serious documentarian and a Christian. Also highly recommend his deep state video with Alex Newman. Glenn Beck does a lot of forward thinking. Bill Whittle also produced fantastic content, arguably the best of all three. God bless you and yours. We are taking back this country from the these communists, and it's glorious to watch.
Bullies love to play the victim. It's a form of manipulation that allows them to displace the responsibility for their actions and garner sympathy from others. Bullying hasn't stopped. It just has an evolving toolset. Back in the day, they'd punch you and stuff you into a locker. Now they attack you, your reputation and career, try to ruin your life, all cloaked under psuedo moral superiority. If you peel back the facade, it's just bullying.
@@Entropic0 - Yes, and until Society at large, especially on the Left in dealing with the Neo-Marxists now, get over their naivete ( "Oh, they mean well." ) and passivity ( "What's the big deal, they aren't harming me?" ), then it will get worse before has the chance of getting better. ( Your description of how bullies displace their responsibility while garnering sympathy is one of the worst, yet effective, tactics to distract. They are Illusionists playing to a crowd that stares and says, "Wowwww." It's infuriating. I didn't see it for decades until it dawned on me after a dating relationship ended. Then when I read some books on the topic, it was if floodgates were opened. I was THAT clueless before. )
They are nothing but Woketivist Bullies.
This ALL started years ago with, “We aren’t going to keep score.” “There is no winner or loser.” “Everyone gets a trophy.” “You are special.”
Yes, see how far you progress in your career with that type of thinking, we are educating for mediocrity.
I love how these people yell down at conservative speakers and call them fascists. Yet they don’t seem to know that what they are doing is fascism!
18-21 year olds are capable of so much more. They're being coddled and encouraged to act like babies. It's ridiculous.
That age group used to be married with 1 kid and running their home or farm upto just 2 generations ago, for millennia. Now they're narcissists who are feeding on others, or glorifying themselves in "safe spaces".
@@chicawhappa agree 100%.
I'm 20 and I don't behave like a fucking a toddler. Being in late teens and early 20s is no excuse for behaving immature and throwing tantrum. I don't get it, why do professors and colleges enable and justify this kind of behavior? Maybe it's a first world problem that I'm too much of a third worlder to understand.
@@San_Deep2501 It's not all of them. Many 18 year olds are signing up for the military, becoming fire fighters, or doing other grown up jobs. It's seems to be these entitled college kids that act the worst.
"I guess they don't teach 'irony' in college anymore." They certainly don't teach thinking, which is necessary for learning.
Where does one go to learn how to properly think, then?
@@arvaneret_329 anywhere that's far from this shit

You hit the nail on the head
Until Americans stand up and say enough is enough, we deserve what we get.
John Stossel should be way more popular I really appreciate his content on this channel
His Subs have increased by a lot over the last 12 months. You can also see he is basically leaving the Left side looney toon land and is coming back down to earth. I am starting to respect him more and more because he is fare and he covers topics that are very important and very much overlooked by the main stream media. I think John is about done with the left and cant believe what is happening himself. That's why he is going so hard because I finally think he realizes how dangerous liberal democrats truly are to our country. Liberals should be labeled Terrorist based on there constant actions of bullying and Violence towards anyone who does not have the same beliefs as them. Sound familiar? Yep that's what terrorist do. Wake up all politicians are bad but the democrats and liberal left are extremely bad and dangerous for our Great Nation . Look at inflation and all the respect we lost from other nations just in the last 12 months. Look at the media focusing on Trans gender and hating on donald trump. Main stream media is evil. Most of the staff at CNN should be put in prison for not condemning the riots and flaming the violence. Lets Go Brandon!!
he's an old school journo.... you know, those that are taught to actually set their personal bias aside and also give the voice of the opposite side..... I love the 80's and 90's.... but it's 2021 now and journalism as became a swearword for political activists. With schools... yeah I've seen them gone bonkers in my time. It all began with the labels. Dyslexia, discalculi etc. etc. that were just put on coz schools didn't know what to do with the hordes of unemployable psychology students they pumped out each year. Then these labels became a status symbol coz hey, the more labels I gather, the more privileges I have on exam compared to the rest. Then we entered the phase of psychological bullying from the psychologists by trying to stuff all those 'self-reflection models' into every fucking course you could think off; which of course was the only class that was actually mandatory coz they couldn't get students to show up voluntarily for this absolute bullcrap. And that same mechanism they expanded on and now turned to all the CRT/ID/diversity bs from DiAngelo (of course it had to be some white caucasian feminist Karen😒... nobody surprised)
Honestly, uni's and colleges today should be avoided like the plague, you only get indoctrination. Learn a skill for a secure future. Uni's and colleges is where your brain as well as your personality goes to die coz teachers and schoolboards don't want to teach you, they want to indoctrinate you and make you an activist.
He will be censored soon enough. It has already happened.
@@barsaf9989 He's already been censored several times by our TH-cam overlords. And of course ABC censored him right off their network for being a libertarian. Modern "journalism" isn't about truth. It's about activism. It's straight up propaganda, and that includes ALL MSM sources including FauxNews. All they do is run polite, milquetoast criticism of safe topics while simultaneously gatekeeping the biggest stories off the air.
I used to hear people say, "Wait until they get a dose of the real world". I always thought that the idiots would just change the real world to continue suiting them...I've never been more sad to be right.
Thses kids won't be able to make it in the real world. So they'll try to become politicians instead.
@@-Ordinary-Average-Guy And to them, hardship is someone making a mean comment or the cafeteria not having their preferred item. They won't know what true hardship is until things get really bad. Imagine for a second what would happen if Mt. Rainier erupted early next summer, just before the harvest, and the ash from that eruption chokes out the breadbasket of America in a few inches of ash. What will these kids do *then*? How about when the next big Hurricane comes in and flattens half their coastal town, and leaves the rest without power? Or a major earthquake levels their California condo town. They won't know true hardship, until nature throws them a real curveball, and believe me, she's in the warmup corner right now preparing for that pitch.
You can tell the western civilization is about to fall just by looking around at all the entitled snowflakes taking over. Just a matter of time.
@@Tank50us They'll just say that government isn't doing enough, and politicians will dutifully respond by crushing the rest of us to make them feel better
Don't forget: when these kids DO get out of College - they inevitably vote to support policies that ULTIMATELY mimics the College Experience.
- That college professor is talking about college students, adults, like toddlers.
- Free speech zone? Maybe I'm misremembering, but wasn't that almost ripped out of 1984? I'm pretty sure the party also had a "free speech zone" or something to that effect.
- The issue is never that protestors criticize or don't want to hear the opinions of others. Want a -nursery- safe space? Sure, go ahead, and if you don't want to hear other opinions go there if someone is invited to speak. Fine by me. But no these students (and professors, and those don't even have the "widdle babies" excuse) actively disrupt the speakers, and in some cases even cause harm to those speakers or fellow students, and possibly even the college itself, through noise, blocking the way, theft, destruction of property, vandalism and potentially even physical harm.
The thing is, colleges entire purpose was to be a 'free speech zone' lol.
The argument that one should "put on your big boy pants" absolutely demolishes the idea behind safe spaces. So Jeremy Mayer inadvertently refuted his own stance on the subject.
I love when the left owns itself.
;)
I would love to be a fly on the wall when some of these people get their first real job and have a performance evaluation and have to hear all sorts of stuff about them that they don't want to hear.
Hahaha right, next stop moms basement.

@@JackHudler bingo.
Normally what happens is that shortly thereafter they leave the job because of harassment. And yes most businesses had to spend a significant amount of money on harassment charges having to do with incorrect speech in the workplace.
@@JackHudler seems like most corporations have nothing but snowflakes working for them, so the test is flawed.
The word "college" should be changed to "indoctrination camp"
I've already adopted the term and so should everyone else.
Why don't they understand that their opinions are equally offensive to people who disagree with THEM? The hypocrisy!
Discourse is necessary for intellectual growth and learning. If discourse isn't allowed in universities then there can't be much learning going on, so why does it cost so much?
How else you gonna pay for those mall-sized dining halls, multiple Olympics-sized swimming pools, climbing walls, DIE administrators, and professors of umbilicus gazing?
When you cannot express your grievances through speech, look out because you know what comes next.
Considering various opinions is how we learn and search for truth. Never be too afraid of being wrong. Welcome it and improve as a result.
It has always been the minorities and the outcast and the weak who have suffered the most when speech is restricted. Some anti-free speech leftists may believe they're protecting these groups in their misguided and condescending way but ultimately if the government gains the power to restrict speech it WILL be the minorities, the outcasts, and the weak who are silenced and victimized the most.

It's not just a "criticism" when they call it "hate speech" and bring the Sheriff down threatening arrest before you've had a chance to say anything at all.
It’s not about the criticism, it’s the fact that the university gets rid of conservative professors, ban conservative speakers, and punish students for hurting feelings. Any kind of political speaker expects and welcomes criticism. Censorship on behalf of the establishment is the issue.
Most California Univ are like that now. Unless you actively push a leftist agenda you may not even get in the door

the hypocrisy goes both ways, sometimes I feel like the elite originally planned to make the liberals fight lockdowns and the conservatives support lockdowns, but trump unpredictably popped up on the anti-lockdown side early 2020 so they had to scramble to reverse the rhetoric. CNN and Fox quickly switched costumes and just barely managed to brainwash both sides to take opposite sides. we can't focus on the elite if we're divided.

I went to a fundamental baptist college. It was the exact same mindset. “Don’t say that, don’t watch that, don’t read books by that author. You’re going to hell if you do!” Students were snitching on each other all the time trying to see whom was more holy and righteous. I’ve seen both sides of this “woke” mindset and it’s ridiculous.
True, there's cancel culture amongst faith as well. A lot of it too
It’s called FUNDAMENTALISM, and it is the sign of mediocre cogitation. The woke are the mirror image of the religious right because it’s the same thing. Believe and belong but don’t think for yourself.
Remember when colleges where supposed to make people have an higher education to be more successful?
The saddest thing about all this is that those same pampered self important ignorant fools are the ones who are most likely going to be writing the laws and holding office in the future. It is truly shocking how people just refuse to learn from the past and avoid anything that makes them uncomfortable and yet somehow that doesn't stop them from often violently forcing their views on others
We already have enough snowflakes in political positions as it is. Somehow they keep getting elected.
It's only going to get worse.
its very sad indeed. We can just hope its just a phase
From the past, it's the ones who make the least noise that get elected, then express their pampered, self-important, and ignorant ways.
I think or at least try to hope that there are a healthy proportion of good eggs out there right now quietly studying in college to one day take our place to combat evil in all forms

Welcome to Lawlessness 101.
Time to start suing Universities who receive government funding.
They're only in existence because of government aid in the market. They're state sponsored entities and should be held to the same standards as public institutions.
@@austinbyrd4164 Exactly. If a college wants to restrict what can be said on its campus, it MUST be entirely privately funded.
I'll still criticize their censorship, but I'll do so while acknowledging their right to do it.
The college administration and teachers are to blame. They need to lose their government funding.
Why when the government loves tyranny.
They won't, because they are doing what the government wants in the first place. The only way for them to lose funding is for a complete restructuring of the government.
For the longest time we had a lot of people saying, "Boy it'll be embarrassing when these people get out of college and realize the real world isn't like that" without recognizing that they'd just spread it into the real world.
Sadly and that's where some of this becomes an issue too. These kids will find ways to exploit the policies in the handbooks at the many employers. I already deal with some of these kids who get yelled at for slacking off by an older coworker, whose been in the workforce longer than these kids have been alive, and immediately they run to HR and issue grievances. The coworker gets sent to the office and gets talked too, maybe written up but not always, and then in 2 weeks the kids quits the job because it's too hard. Yea I am totally not speaking from experience/s. What makes me so upset is that I am a nontraditional college student and many universities are spreading this idea that manufacturing jobs are for losers, that driving a garbage truck is for high school dropouts, and that being a plumber or electrician is dead end career when in fact these are all jobs that still exist in the United States and are in fact in high demand thanks to an aging and retiring workforce leaving many positions vacant. That and many degrees that exist now reinforce far-left political ideology and teach that in curriculum.
The answer is simple: Cut all taxpayer funding to Universities as a whole and have those same Universities pay their own taxes.
All this started when they started handing out “participation trophy’s”.

When an out-of-control adult baby college student (or professor) punches you or steals your sign, it's a "passionate mistake" and you've just got to put on your big boy pants, but by holding a sign or attempting to engage in conversation it is "offensive", "bigotry" or some type of "(fad)phobia". Sure, sure. That makes sense.

Being "passionate" and "18 to 21 year old" aren't sufficient reason to forbid people whose opinion differs from yours to speak and lecture on campus.
In fact, universities should stand on the side of free speech (freedom) to let these grown up adult-age "kids" learn what freedom implies, thus having an opportunity to become mature-minded adults.
Obama says “you should have an argument with someone you disagree with”??
How about having a conversation???
"what happened to you John was wrong" Too bad this guy still denies the reality that it happens to everyone that's not in the Party.
Right after that he said "but" - it means everything before is irrelevant.
“Get over it” is something that goes both ways.

So, what these offended students are saying is that only their feelings & their opinions matter ...
The very definition of narcissism 🙄
And now they’re bringing this into the elementary schools…
Very well said and informative. Somebody needs to start standing up to those universities and say "hey, this is America! You can't tell people where, when or how they could talk about certain things." NO universities should infringe the rights of speech nor dicatate anyone what we should say or cannot say.
Thank you Mr Stosall..
This is insanity
How profound
Freedom of speech is sacred.
If you want to know who controls you, it's those you can't insult or criticize.
When these kids leave college and enter the real world they will have a big wake-up call when they find out no one cares about their feelings.
nah they will just move to liberal cities like new york, chicago, berkley and become professors, non-profit leaders, bureaucrats, and other non-contributing members of society and gobble up tax payer dollars with their worthless degrees in gender studies, non-profit leadership, public service, sociology, educational leadership, etc
The idiocy of these people will come to light when their failure to obtain a job, hold a job, and live in reality. They don’t understand that reality is challenges and opposition. That’s how progress is made.
I knew back in the 90’s that by giving every child a participation Trophy that it was going to end badly, now we see the results.

Heather McDonald's "The Diversity Delusion" is a great book that goes in depth about campus intolerance.
Should have told that guy who said "put on your big boy pants " that Trans students sue and scream and throw tantrums, they don't just call out people. Also when a comedian is performing his or her set, interruptions from the audience is called heckling and it's bad form. Hecklers usually will be slammed hard by a comedian and feelings will definitely be hurt at that point.
I'm sure he never tells those screeching activist students to put on their "big boy pants" because they don't like someone else's speech.
Did anyone see the story of the "cis-gendered men" coming into a dorm to do some repairs? Some of the students were upset about their space being "violated".
Strong and brave
When thinking and debate is discouraged at a school.
True story: a friend of mine owned a tech company and had a young trans person interview for the position. everything went well he was surprised actually until after the hiring process. My friend wanting to be "progressive" hired the person. Third day on the job, the trans person walked into his office and said "we need to talk"my friend asked what was wrong and the trans person said there was no safe space in the office and that he would need to create one or he could be sued for not protecting its feelings. My Friend agreed and promptly sprung into action. He said, you're absolutely right, let's make you a safe space right now!. He said follow me I know a spot, he made the Trans follow him to their own car in the parking lot, ask them for the keys, opened the door, ushered them in and said here is your safe space, now please move it out of my Parking lot we'll mail you your check. Don't you feel safer now? and walked away! like a gangster. He then denied all of the unemployment claims as they hadn't worked there long enough. This is the only way they will get the message.
Brilliant!

John Stossel, one of the last common sense voices left in America. John, I've been a fan and a follower of yours since that baby was born in a barn.
Excellent piece as usual John …
Nearly everyone interviewed here is very witty and articulate, and understands why free speech is important. It's too bad the people in charge and those making decisions don't...
Always brightens my day when I see a Stossel video.
Thank you for your honorable and brave work to defend free speech, Mr. Stossel. I wish we had more like you!
Being called a homophobe isn’t a criticism, it’s an ad hominem.
Scared? LmFao
Latin is classicist!
@@TEAMGETHELP Isn't it weird that they use the words like homophobic? I suppose it is a good tactic because messing with the language complicates and obscures the issue. Now, the person you are debating needs to address the new term which distracts and wastes time.
5:42 “What happened to you John, was wrong.”
goes on to make excuses for why the college students silenced John
This is one of the best channels on TH-cam. Thank you John
When businesses like college disregard the US Constitution and the Bill of Actual Rights citizens have, they should not receive any benefits such as non-profit status or having their endowments exempt from taxes or even being able to utilize taxpayer money to fund their overpriced products.
I put "comfort dogs" in that same ridiculous "safe space" category.
I have a comfort dog. I have to comfort her after evey loud noise, storm, and encounters with strangers.
They really got the most rat faced sniveling professor/ administrator to support the liberal position 🤣
John Stossel, always pointing out the things that get my blood pressure up. Finding material to press my button must be much easier lately, because it seems to be happening a lot!
Those who oppose free speech should be silenced!
I laughed my ass off with the Free Speech Zone. Look how small it is ffs
It should be a porta potti. But it would offend liberals to big
Remember when conservatives were accused of being closed minded and against opposing ideas? (I think they had that wrong).
Amazing content. John always delivers. What a legend!
Thank you John; I loved watching you on 20/20 as a child.
Glad I went to college in the late 60s we're everyone exercised their right to speak their mind. This is unbelievable.
I love how that "professor" sitting in his classroom is so oblivious to what they are doing to children's minds!!
I would sincerely like to interview the parents of each and everyone of these idiot students. One question to be asked: are you proud of you son/daughter? Another: aren’t you glad you worked hard to feed, clothe and shelter them? Look at your result!
Thanks John! I was going to suggest a mandatory year of service in the military before college, but the services are tainted enough already.
Safe space is the space you can defend from attacks. Generally want high ground, limited access, and after a choke point to limit number of attackers attacking at an one moment.
Proffs stealing signs. How immature, they should get done for that.
Wouldn't using gender neutral terms be *assuming* a person is gender neutral 😐
Doesn't the b in lgbt mean there are only 2 (word I can't write or I'll be deleted)
@@goodolearkygal5746 obvious y’all have never been to college, cuz yer critical thinkin’ skills’re showin’
The “run and hide, run and hide…” lmao! It really is pathetic where we are going.
I guess I never thought of as displayed here.. they are so fragile that the ones crying oppression are literally doing the oppressing.
This is a great thing for driving people into the conservative camp. These students are NUTS.
