Look, I'm a conservative, no doubt... But I ain't no Zionist shill supporting unjust wars in the Middle East for the benefit of Israel. This doco makes it's point (and a valid one too), but then it quickly turns into pro-war propaganda by demonizing people who are simply against the unjust murder of innocents in the third world (at the hands of so-called free, democratic, "first-world" countries).
I do NOT accept the maxim "My country, right or wrong". Rather I believe in "right", full stop.
I like the point that is made how if you disagree you are labeled either a racist or a homophobe. This is why they attack the Tea Party and label them as stupid, racist or homophobic. The progressives follow the Alinsky rules to a tee and they have taken over the universities. I don't think this can be stopped. My nieces and nephews that come out of college all come out libs. Their parents are center left but the kids come out far left!

A little late coming to watch this film I heard of years ago!! With three children in the public school system, I am fully aware of the indoctrination that goes on as are most parents and students. All I have to say is what a bright, strong, and wonderful group of people that make it through the entire system and still manage to avoid the indoctrination and learn to think for themselves and not follow the crowd! These students are our nations hope for the future. Thank you for this film.
I was disappointed with this movie...Playing the typical race card, divide and conquer style, I thought it was going to discuss the purpose of the university to narrow our thinking to a function and dumb us down from knowledge of the private side. peace.
I think the premise of this film is that education can be "neutral," and that's what I disagree with. Not talking about race/class/gender is not the same thing as being objective or impartial, it's the same thing as taking the side of the dominant ideology. Education is always "in the interest" of particular people, and I'd prefer an education that is in the interest of equality than one which condones the most serious problems facing our society today.

Stupid conservative goes to college and doesn't understand intelligent thought > calls everybody indoctrinated > proclaims everybody else stupid for going to school.
Standard conservative American thought, and it's the most retarded thing I've ever heard. Literally all of the people in this documentary come off as idiots, no matter what the political bias.
Wow you really showed ur intellectual prowess with that comment. If you've ever been to college you cannot sit there and tell me the vast majority of professors arent left leaning liberals. Give me break asshole. So having a dissenting thought is all of a sudden makes you stupid? Your well on your way to becoming a college professor
I found many of the politically "aware" types, were the least tolerant, most obnoxious, least open minded of any young people I've ever met.
I like most young people, find many very friendly, but when a college can take them and make them bitter and angry at others for noting more than not sharing their newfound political views,.. I mean, come on,.. to be young is to question, a given, but to be a partisan puppet spouting leftwing rants on cue,.
I'm 50, never been to college, but I have had some confrontations with the product of this kind of indoctrination. I was just working, trying to make a wage to feed my wife and kids, nothing more than that, yet, because a couple of liberal arts majors at the local college had issues with my company,...
I was denounced loudly in public as a tool of corparate America, I was wearing a veterans pin given me by a friend before he shipped out with the 4th Division to Iraq, they didn't like that.
at times my profs will say something i'm not sure i agree with. they will show how they came to that conclusion and give examples and proof. at other times my profs will say something i'm not sure i agree with and move on to another subject, as if their opinion was self-evident. i tend to ignore that information and, at least so far, it has not hurt my grade :o)
It makes college (in an "arts & sciences" setting) very easy.......
Simply mirror the professor's opinions & repeat the liberal rhetoric, and you get a good grade. 2/3 of my classes might as well be called "Being an Obedient Democrat." It's sad, but it's reality.
you arent forced to pay taxes. You arent forced to drive the speed limit. Just because you arent being "forced" like you would in cuba, china, or Venezuela, but the atmosphere discourages right beliefs while it encourages left beliefs. This effectively forces you to shut up, change your mind, or suffer the reprecutions of being a racist narrow minded red neck (ie unfair treatment and grading by professor and peers)

That's the most ridiculous argument ever. I had a philosophy professor, MICHAEL LEVIN. He had racist point of view. This man is a part of a white supremacist organization. I kid you not. You can google him. He certainly didn't influence me at all.
Some people like this guy wouldn't know the truth if it hit him like a Mack truck.... wake up! College is what you make of it? Did you even watch this movie? This is only the trailer, watch the film then comment. G.
if you saw the movie you might know that there is an ungodly percentage of universities nationally that have the same issues as the college you think they seem to be talking about. also if you think about the quote "If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth" then your theory about college being what you make of it becomes bull.
btw the quote comes from Joseph Goebbels a propaganda creator under Hitlers Regime. Dont you think he would know about manipulation?
As one who is quite liberal, I commend this film. This movie is not about "conservatives" or "liberals" although it might be interpreted that way. Any sane rational person knows that both sides try to censor each other. But this is about a deeper and more important issue: are we open to views that are different than ours? I think for many of us, if we are honest with ourselves, we will find that the answer is a decided "no." And it's for pointing this out that this film's power is found.
i'm a libertarian so i share common ground with those on both sides. I have to say as someone who went through high school praising michael moore and bush bashing, there is definitely a slant against conservative views in the grand scheme of things. I find those on the left fail to see the potentially detrimental effects of their ideas and policies in the real world.
I voted thumbs down because, while I'm very conservative, I don't agree with the use of the term, 'the left'. In this case I belive the term, 'the establishment' would be a better choice. Because there are NUTCASES on the Left and Right. No 'side' has a monoply on 'good' or 'correct'. The key is to FIND the NUTCASES in YOUR CAMP and help them to have an OPEN mind. If you hold ANY belief as 'the only TRUTH' you do not have an open mind. It's not 'them' vs 'us' there is ONLY us.
similar to Ben Stein's "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed", the movie "Indoctrinate U" is another documentary which focuses on what seems to be an Academic WAR on LIBERTY.
controversial philosophical arguments aside, the issue of members within academia stifling free speech -- and free thought -- is not unique to merely documentaries criticized as being "biased".
for one recent example and as i recently shared, Christine Brashier, a student at the Community College of Allegheny County, Pittsburg, was not filming a "biased" documentary when she was threatened with "disciplinary actions" by the dean for merely advancing a discussion among students regarding the potential of forming a chapter of a nationally recognized college organization on her campus whose principles apparently run contrary to those of the dean and other school officials.
this was a clearly obvious assault upon free speech and free thought, perpetrated by the heads of academia in this particular college.
therefore, if we swallow the lie that all such documentaries are nothing but propaganda based in complete falsehoods, then we are surely playing the fool.
it appears that over time, the federally co-opted institution of education has provided a fertile ground for those whose goal it is to advance the authoritarian paradigm among the youth of America. it's an evil, but very savvy strategy of the enemies of liberty -- get 'em while they're young and impressionable... it seemed to work well for Hitler!
The young adults of today are mostly Democrat Socialists. Their Hitler is this Obama Moron President. Vote him out in 2012 and get a real President and I don't care what Party they come from.

Does anyone in this movie complain that university business schools - usually the biggest schools on most campuses - don't present left wing ideas??
I bet not even for a second lol. This stuff always cracks me up.
All I've seen is righty propaganda disguised as impartial journalism. It's attempt to preserve and expand righty dialogue on campus while censoring the left. The left doesn't try to censor the biz school, so who are the bad guys lol?
Sex is biological, gender is social. Being a male because you have a penis is your sex, but for example the idea that, "boys don't cry," is a part of gender.
The distinction is important because different cultures and societies have different social expectations of what a male should be and what a female should be compared to other groups of people.
It's not a question of politics: it's the definition and use of the word. Probably the only thing that was amiss in this great documentary.
I've seen this film. It's amazing. And right on target. I've seen too many young people who lean to Conservatism berated and verbally attacked for their beliefs. I recently read of one student who was physically attacked when he refused to sign some kind of Liberal petition. College is a place to foster free thinking. Unfortunately if it's not "their" kind of thinking, you're in big trouble.
I believe both sides think, I just think there's irony in college age people supporting a party that constantly takes money away from education (on all levels). That's like a cow defending the beef industry.
I'm not a republican, democrat, conservative, liberal, or whatever, I just call bs when I see it. College kids supporting the party that has tried numerous times to cut the amount of financial aid that allows some people to attend college in the first place. That's an oxymoron.
Thank you for making this. People need a wake up call. Sadly people just aren't smart enough to see that they are being pushed into a set of views, and not indepedently coming to them on their own
yep, tell that to all the yelping, foaming at the mouth, lefty, liberal, pacifist , "out to save the world" communist indoctrinated know it all fucking hippy college kids...ive gotten into arguments with them, its pretty sickening how deep it goes.
I go to colorado state university and our newspaper publishes liberal comics every day. it is incredible how intolerant these so called liberals are. you will be harassed on any campus in usa if you do not agree with the status quo
hate top say it but it made me sick to see the liberalist attitudes that were force fed to me and others when i attended college. I am by no means conservative, but the blatant verbal indoctrination given us by so many of our professors, as well as the lack of objectivity in those whom have graduated....kinda scary folks.
After seeing the documentary I can see they had a point. They went to liberal universities and saw discrimination. Now the documentary maker needs to travel to CONSERVATIVE universities and prove there is no discrimination there against anyone with a liberal view. Then universities will need to take this seriously. Until they can do this, this documentary is drivel.
Most "conservative" universities are privately owned institutions. They play by slightly differently different rules because they are not a public institution and therefore they have greater ability to dictate what is and isn't taught.
However, that doesn't mean that discrimination doesn't take place at BYU, Oral Roberts, etc...
Well, this is not a documentary. I don't disagree with a lot of what was said, but simply putting quotes together, without even telling us who the people are, is not a documentary.
i hope you people realize that the liberals start to brainwash us the momment we step into KINDERGARDEN and repeat their views over and over and over again thru highschool too
Tolerance again? I guess I don't think much of propaganda.
I graduated from a State College like most people including most Republicans.
Lieberman is just someone the Dems will have to deal with for the next 4 years. He's actually ok on a few issue, absolutely the worst on others.
I don't need government to take care of me. I need government to stop ruining my kids' future. When Bill Clinton left the country in fiscal surplus. We had a chance. It's looking a lot bleaker now isn't it?
I'm tolerating you, Brookie, but I'm not sure who you are referring to with "you guys".
Maybe you're just being judgemental as well as intolerant... remember, it's you guys on the extreme left that demand that evryone share your idea of tolerance.
I love humanity, that's why I treat all people with the respect that they deserve. It's also why I have risked my life to fight for the rights of those who can't fight for themselves.
You are in a fear mongering sense grouping all liberals together and blaming all of them for all of the problems in the world. You are just as ignorant as the university administrators who support these lunatic fringe ideas of the democratic party!
gender is socially constructed. there is a different between your sex and your gender and what you think male or female is is constructed but what the people around think that it is NOT.
It`s time for a rethink Revolution in every aspect of life as we know it. Freedom is truly earned and struggled for. Lets not allow anything or any Group, Think Tank, et al slot, sort, and stigmatize us. Think for yourself! And don`t let somebody else do it or it`s over!
Sorry, I hope that I don't come across as sounding or being rude, but I'm afraid you've lost me here. Is it alright if you elaborate on what you mean by the above, in order for me to get a clearer picture of what you're saying?
In other words, we must be truly free to speak as we wish, think as we wish without intrusion from "Authority" and other such manipulations, verbal, "Popular Opinion", "Mainstream Media" ,and College Professors who find what we say or think "Intolorable". We live in a Society which is CONSTITUTIONALLY Protected from such intrusions!
When you start creating your own communities by reaching out, then you create your own schools, your own shops, and you employ them will all who are a part of it. Will that happen, I dont know, but what I do see is that people have been taught to practice freedom of speech behind a computer screen where their is central control, and no threat. Weekend warriors no threat, internet warriors no threat, people in the street getting peoples attention, BIG THREAT!
What people need to be teaching each other is the intent of our fouders, the laws that have come alive around it, and whether or not it is of our own creation. Once you figure out that all of this is defacto, and you being and/or claiming to be a "person" which is defined in blacks law as a "legal fictional character" allows it then you can go in a different direction. Fact is they cant affect your ability to contract, which is why you have to sign for everything, to waive your rights.
Universities are designed for the masses not individual thinkers. The masses chase the "American Dream" and the road to wealth and riches. They worship the higher ideal "there of do" of our farthers. The masses falsely belief University education is the road to freedom and happiness in life.
Universities are NOT designed to promote independent thinkers. They are INTOLERANT of anyone who might be a threat and undermine their system.
Remember folks, if someone is trying to lead you you are probably being lead in the wrong direction. Take control of your own life, and let the fuckers know, you will die to keep your rights against anyone willing to die to take them. Guess what, they leave you the fuck alone!
Actually, your an idiot. I'm not looking for anything. I already found it. I'm just trying help others raise their consciousness higher than what you federally funded dorks want. Your idea of helping others is keeping people in one frame of mind locked into an episode of thought where they are forced back into the box of entertainment. While someone else is doing what they individually should be doing themselves.
Our future leaders of tommorrow are brainwashed, indoctrinated with scientific, social and political knowledge which might not even be totally true. They are never to question authority or what is already know about the world in which we live.
I have seen this first hand with a 30 y.o friend who got a P.H.D from the University of Minnesota in Sociology. She is now STAMPED, BOUGHT and OWED by the 'SYSTEM' she begins her tenure. These are NOT people who are instructed to ever TRUELY think outside the box. They are slaves by the very system which they are indoctrinated and must maintain loyalty to that under any condition or face penalties.
This is great, and I congratulate anyone who is going after the bad ideologies of this generations world. But when do we stop identifying problems and start putting in place solutions. Anyone can go out and stir the pot, but not everyone can put together simple solutions to the problems. We need thinkers not locked up in the proverbial box, regardless if that box looks open from the outside. The only way to open this box is to stomp on it and open all sides.
Your problem is you are looking for a heroe when you should be your own heroe. Stop looking for the answers outside of yourself. Instead look for the answers within you. These people are simply providing information so that you can weigh the information and come to rational conclusions. Also you are identifying a problem yourself by identifying a problem thus you are guilty of what you accuse this man of.
Just happen to catch this film late last night on WNYE. Kudos to those brave enough to make it.
Next film should be about how the same scary creeping thought control has permeated society (especially the entertainment business)in New York and Los Angeles.
I have to say though... the trailer does not do this film justice or rather does not communicate well enough what the film is actually about.
I must admit that the points made clear here I can agree with to a certain extent. Free speech has its place in every University, for and against any political leaning. I protested against a game I felt was racist being hosted by College Republicans at NYU. They're more than welcome to protest any event I host at my University. But this film didn't need to take the vicious attack stance it did towards the end. That's when I became disheartened and felt it lost credibility.
I saw this film tonight on the doc channel I was glad someone made a right wing documentary but I was disappointed with the last part of it.this was supposes to be an objective point of view exposing liberal hypocrisy of free speech they ended it by criticizing the liberal view point it showed the film maker as no better then those he criticized in the film he lost his objectivity
I went to a state university, and they allowed everything from street preachers standing on a soap box and shouting that gays are going to hell, to an anti-abortion group that put banners all over school.
And believe me, there are no shortage of Conservative students spouting their views in open discussion in class. The professors all encouraged discourse, and let people say what they wanted to in class, even if their opinions were moronic.
Yours is a very isolated case since 95% of the time it's extreme liberal bias..are you a liberal?Right now you have met the extreme conservatives and then paint all conservatives like that when they're not like that..especially when you said "spouting their views"..don't liberals "spout" their views as well I ask?
Regardless of what your political views are, I must say that people in general don't protest as much and especially young ones i.e. college students. Let's take the Iraq debacle for example. Something like 85% of Americans oppose the war and the stats are even higher among college students yet when was the last campus protest that you so that even came close to the tamest protest day during the Vietnam war? This is just another ploy by Neo-Cons pitting themselves against the "evil" liberals.
True there aren't as many protests as there once was in the Vietnam Era.The question here though is why.Well who do you need to protest when everyone around you(like todays campuses) is of the same idealolgy.The protests of the 60's to early 70's Era were really protests against the establishment as their were more conservative points of view allowed at that time than on todays campus and not as many morons oops,I meant liberally minded students.So your argument is at best a moot point of view.
Furthermore when there are the occasional Conservative Speakers seldomnly invited to campuses through the process of almost having to sue over 1st amendment rights they are more than often shouted down by the open minded pro free speech(sarcasm)liberals that dominate all campuses.So it's pretty simple,well maybe not for you,that the once loud voice of Vietnam protest movement did so against the establishment have now become the establishment.
Liberal Rule #1: In order to eliminate discrimination the liberal must opt to be utterly indiscriminate.Which means for one not to discriminate she or he must intentually pretend they don't know some of the things they do know.This politically correct bullshit has made most of the youth that will one day run the country ultimately ignorant and you seem to have also drank the kool aid.
85% of Americans may be against war or want the war to end ...doesn't mean they oppose the Iraq war.
Reason why students are lethargic and not really committed to protesting the war is because it doesn't directly affect them the way Vietnam directly affected students.
Try taking away their ipods though...then you'll see some shit.
This video may be true opf some campuses, but not of mine. I went to CSULB and we had both the guy who started Kawanza and the #1 scholar who says that the Holocaust didn't happen. Both of which can be very unpopular in different circles, yet they are allowed to speak their minds.
LOL, I do want to see this...but I find it compelling that the open inquiry environment of academia bred liberalism, not conservatism. A better question to ask is ... WHY? I say its because Conservatism by its nature EXCLUDES dissent more than Liberalism.
Academics, here, then, ARE guilty of violating tenants of liberalism by excluding po', ig'nunt conservative counter points. Shame on academia for accidentally affirming right-wing closed-mindedness.
This film is distorted. Activism among young people is down, yet the filmmaker shows protesters(exercising their right to dissent) as if they were terrifying monsters taking over. They don't show the police attacking them, which happens frequently. Interesting that conservatives, who dislike people for seeming like victims, resort to positioning themselves as victims. I work at a university; the most active student political group is the Republican one, and the school newspaper is conservative.
Oh the filmmaker made these protesters look like terrifying monsters? Then what about the other hundreds of videos that show liberals protesting in violence and hatred that show them as the hatemongers they are in raw unedited footage? Any scapegoats there? It is what it is and yes it is frighteningly ugly.
will for all there assertions this film has, it's not working. Students stuck-up to there leftist professors in collage then get good corporate jobs and stuck-up to there right wing establishment managers in many cases just to pay off there student loans. So what good does it do? nothing
When you talk to people attending a university (and some institutions more than others, of course) they have had at least two or more professors than espouse and promote radically leftist views of socialism and marxism while criticizing and denouncing democracy and free market capitalism. Students are focusing on their studies and graduating; most of them don't research the opposing view. Yes, they are being indoctrinated with liberal propaganda. Time for a revolutionary movement!
This film need to be distributed to major theaters so the masses can see what the Koz's, HuffPo's, Moyer's of the world are wanting to do to America. Remember the kids in college now will be Senators, Congressmen, Judges, and Presidents in the next 40 years or so.
They are the enemy within, along with the leftist professors that Obama is surrounding himself with. There is a Marxist revolution going on right now and they are using Islamic terrorists as a shield and distraction for their movement.
I just saw the whole movie and what an eye opener. It shows that the American Left will do all it takes to shut down the conservatives in America. I never thought I would see the day that people would say they hate the military. Heck the US Military has been protecting the rights of protesters since the 60's. I am now wanting to read Jonah Goldberg's book now, because it makes sense...there are Liberal Fascists in this country. The filmmaker is a thinner, saner, better Michael Moore.
This is a good film to watch. My grandson is learning about "global warming" in elementary school. He had to write a paper. Following the teachers direction he got an A. Giving A's is another way teachers inflate students ego to move forward their propaganda.

Oh boy! A documentary in which a young filmmaker badgers university officials and uses stock footage to prove that there are are leftists at universities--imagine that! Can't miss this one...
Also, it's pretty funny how the commenters here think that they are being oppressed by the "far-left" and "fascists". Assuming that one has actually been to college, one should know that these are distinct and separate catagories, especially in the American context. So which one is it, guys?
According to the new book 'Liberal Facism' "This well researched book reviews what many historians have known for decades - and not spoken about. Namely, the direct connection between European Fascism and the political philosophy of the American Left. What this book reveals is that Communism, Fascism, Socialism and the American Left are all versions of the same general political philosophy and that they have for decades stood in direct opposition to the founding principals of our nation.
After watching the whole thing, I now want to read that book...it is a shame that if you are a right-wing minority you are considered a "sell-out". The leftists in America's elitist Universities have taken over and are using fascist tactics to push their agenda's on our impressionable youth...heck my 7 y/o Nephew is being brainwashed already with this "Global Warming" crap.
Those dirty leftists with their fascist tactics like facts and evidence! They're taking over, despite the fact that nearly every Hollywood movie that comes out glorifies guns and war, and corporations like Exxon spread dissent about global warming so people believe there's some sort of debate. Better to be conservative and hate the environment, embrace bigotry, and victimize the weak and socially powerless.
I've been to college, and political repression is quite real there. A principle precept of fascism is the forcible suppression of dissent; when that suppression is coming from people or groups on the far left, then fascistic starts to become an appropriate adjective.
this looks like a great vid and it seems to show what a lot of us have heard or thought of what is going on at colleges.Thank you and hope you get this out to every college
After years as a university trustee and now the parent of a prospective student I have come to the conclusion that the best way to end the politically correct culture poisoning higher education is to end university endowments. Universities with substantial endowments are no longer accountable to their alumni, the students and/or the parents. They don't need your money and therefore don't want your opinion or input.
All organizations need to be accountable to someone.
This is an EXCELLENT documentary. Be sure to buy a copy and tell all your friends about it. It is horrible what is happening in our leftist campuses. And if you refute the liberals they label you a sexist, homophobe, etc. Terms like that are meant to END a discussion not have one.
The radical, leftist wing has taken over academia and now they are the FASCISTS who suppress the opinions and viewpoints of anyone that disagrees with their views. Shameful.
This is one "necessary" video. =p

I found many of the politically "aware" types, were the least tolerant, most obnoxious, least open minded of any young people I've ever met.
I like most young people, find many very friendly, but when a college can take them and make them bitter and angry at others for noting more than not sharing their newfound political views,.. I mean, come on,.. to be young is to question, a given, but to be a partisan puppet spouting leftwing rants on cue,.

I was just working, trying to make a wage to feed my wife and kids, nothing more than that, yet, because a couple of liberal arts majors at the local college had issues with my company,...
I was denounced loudly in public as a tool of corparate America, I was wearing a veterans pin given me by a friend before he shipped out with the 4th Division to Iraq, they didn't like that.

at times my profs will say something i'm not sure i agree with. they will show how they came to that conclusion and give examples and proof. at other times my profs will say something i'm not sure i agree with and move on to another subject, as if their opinion was self-evident. i tend to ignore that information and, at least so far, it has not hurt my grade :o)

It makes college (in an "arts & sciences" setting) very easy.......
Simply mirror the professor's opinions & repeat the liberal rhetoric, and you get a good grade. 2/3 of my classes might as well be called "Being an Obedient Democrat." It's sad, but it's reality.

you arent forced to pay taxes. You arent forced to drive the speed limit. Just because you arent being "forced" like you would in cuba, china, or Venezuela, but the atmosphere discourages right beliefs while it encourages left beliefs. This effectively forces you to shut up, change your mind, or suffer the reprecutions of being a racist narrow minded red neck (ie unfair treatment and grading by professor and peers)

if you saw the movie you might know that there is an ungodly percentage of universities nationally that have the same issues as the college you think they seem to be talking about. also if you think about the quote "If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth" then your theory about college being what you make of it becomes bull.
btw the quote comes from Joseph Goebbels a propaganda creator under Hitlers Regime. Dont you think he would know about manipulation?

As one who is quite liberal, I commend this film. This movie is not about "conservatives" or "liberals" although it might be interpreted that way. Any sane rational person knows that both sides try to censor each other. But this is about a deeper and more important issue: are we open to views that are different than ours? I think for many of us, if we are honest with ourselves, we will find that the answer is a decided "no." And it's for pointing this out that this film's power is found.

i'm a libertarian so i share common ground with those on both sides. I have to say as someone who went through high school praising michael moore and bush bashing, there is definitely a slant against conservative views in the grand scheme of things. I find those on the left fail to see the potentially detrimental effects of their ideas and policies in the real world.

I voted thumbs down because, while I'm very conservative, I don't agree with the use of the term, 'the left'. In this case I belive the term, 'the establishment' would be a better choice. Because there are NUTCASES on the Left and Right. No 'side' has a monoply on 'good' or 'correct'. The key is to FIND the NUTCASES in YOUR CAMP and help them to have an OPEN mind. If you hold ANY belief as 'the only TRUTH' you do not have an open mind. It's not 'them' vs 'us' there is ONLY us.

similar to Ben Stein's "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed", the movie "Indoctrinate U" is another documentary which focuses on what seems to be an Academic WAR on LIBERTY.
controversial philosophical arguments aside, the issue of members within academia stifling free speech -- and free thought -- is not unique to merely documentaries criticized as being "biased".
(cont...)
infinityBBC 2 years ago
(... cont.)
for one recent example and as i recently shared, Christine Brashier, a student at the Community College of Allegheny County, Pittsburg, was not filming a "biased" documentary when she was threatened with "disciplinary actions" by the dean for merely advancing a discussion among students regarding the potential of forming a chapter of a nationally recognized college organization on her campus whose principles apparently run contrary to those of the dean and other school officials.

this was a clearly obvious assault upon free speech and free thought, perpetrated by the heads of academia in this particular college.

Does anyone in this movie complain that university business schools - usually the biggest schools on most campuses - don't present left wing ideas??
I bet not even for a second lol. This stuff always cracks me up.
All I've seen is righty propaganda disguised as impartial journalism. It's attempt to preserve and expand righty dialogue on campus while censoring the left. The left doesn't try to censor the biz school, so who are the bad guys lol?

Sex is biological, gender is social. Being a male because you have a penis is your sex, but for example the idea that, "boys don't cry," is a part of gender.
The distinction is important because different cultures and societies have different social expectations of what a male should be and what a female should be compared to other groups of people.
It's not a question of politics: it's the definition and use of the word. Probably the only thing that was amiss in this great documentary.

I've seen this film. It's amazing. And right on target. I've seen too many young people who lean to Conservatism berated and verbally attacked for their beliefs. I recently read of one student who was physically attacked when he refused to sign some kind of Liberal petition. College is a place to foster free thinking. Unfortunately if it's not "their" kind of thinking, you're in big trouble.

I believe both sides think, I just think there's irony in college age people supporting a party that constantly takes money away from education (on all levels). That's like a cow defending the beef industry.
I'm not a republican, democrat, conservative, liberal, or whatever, I just call bs when I see it. College kids supporting the party that has tried numerous times to cut the amount of financial aid that allows some people to attend college in the first place. That's an oxymoron.

I must admit that the points made clear here I can agree with to a certain extent. Free speech has its place in every University, for and against any political leaning. I protested against a game I felt was racist being hosted by College Republicans at NYU. They're more than welcome to protest any event I host at my University. But this film didn't need to take the vicious attack stance it did towards the end. That's when I became disheartened and felt it lost credibility.

Regardless of what your political views are, I must say that people in general don't protest as much and especially young ones i.e. college students. Let's take the Iraq debacle for example. Something like 85% of Americans oppose the war and the stats are even higher among college students yet when was the last campus protest that you so that even came close to the tamest protest day during the Vietnam war? This is just another ploy by Neo-Cons pitting themselves against the "evil" liberals.

True there aren't as many protests as there once was in the Vietnam Era.The question here though is why.Well who do you need to protest when everyone around you(like todays campuses) is of the same idealolgy.The protests of the 60's to early 70's Era were really protests against the establishment as their were more conservative points of view allowed at that time than on todays campus and not as many morons oops,I meant liberally minded students.So your argument is at best a moot point of view.

Furthermore when there are the occasional Conservative Speakers seldomnly invited to campuses through the process of almost having to sue over 1st amendment rights they are more than often shouted down by the open minded pro free speech(sarcasm)liberals that dominate all campuses.So it's pretty simple,well maybe not for you,that the once loud voice of Vietnam protest movement did so against the establishment have now become the establishment.

This film need to be distributed to major theaters so the masses can see what the Koz's, HuffPo's, Moyer's of the world are wanting to do to America. Remember the kids in college now will be Senators, Congressmen, Judges, and Presidents in the next 40 years or so.

They are the enemy within, along with the leftist professors that Obama is surrounding himself with. There is a Marxist revolution going on right now and they are using Islamic terrorists as a shield and distraction for their movement.

I just saw the whole movie and what an eye opener. It shows that the American Left will do all it takes to shut down the conservatives in America. I never thought I would see the day that people would say they hate the military. Heck the US Military has been protecting the rights of protesters since the 60's. I am now wanting to read Jonah Goldberg's book now, because it makes sense...there are Liberal Fascists in this country. The filmmaker is a thinner, saner, better Michael Moore.

This is a good film to watch. My grandson is learning about "global warming" in elementary school. He had to write a paper. Following the teachers direction he got an A. Giving A's is another way teachers inflate students ego to move forward their propaganda.

I hate to break it to you, but global warming is not propaganda. There is a great deal of scientific evidence to support it.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Oh boy! A documentary in which a young filmmaker badgers university officials and uses stock footage to prove that there are are leftists at universities--imagine that! Can't miss this one...
Also, it's pretty funny how the commenters here think that they are being oppressed by the "far-left" and "fascists". Assuming that one has actually been to college, one should know that these are distinct and separate catagories, especially in the American context. So which one is it, guys?

According to the new book 'Liberal Facism' "This well researched book reviews what many historians have known for decades - and not spoken about. Namely, the direct connection between European Fascism and the political philosophy of the American Left. What this book reveals is that Communism, Fascism, Socialism and the American Left are all versions of the same general political philosophy and that they have for decades stood in direct opposition to the founding principals of our nation.

After watching the whole thing, I now want to read that book...it is a shame that if you are a right-wing minority you are considered a "sell-out". The leftists in America's elitist Universities have taken over and are using fascist tactics to push their agenda's on our impressionable youth...heck my 7 y/o Nephew is being brainwashed already with this "Global Warming" crap.

Those dirty leftists with their fascist tactics like facts and evidence! They're taking over, despite the fact that nearly every Hollywood movie that comes out glorifies guns and war, and corporations like Exxon spread dissent about global warming so people believe there's some sort of debate. Better to be conservative and hate the environment, embrace bigotry, and victimize the weak and socially powerless.

I've been to college, and political repression is quite real there. A principle precept of fascism is the forcible suppression of dissent; when that suppression is coming from people or groups on the far left, then fascistic starts to become an appropriate adjective.

After years as a university trustee and now the parent of a prospective student I have come to the conclusion that the best way to end the politically correct culture poisoning higher education is to end university endowments. Universities with substantial endowments are no longer accountable to their alumni, the students and/or the parents. They don't need your money and therefore don't want your opinion or input.
All organizations need to be accountable to someone.

This is an EXCELLENT documentary. Be sure to buy a copy and tell all your friends about it. It is horrible what is happening in our leftist campuses. And if you refute the liberals they label you a sexist, homophobe, etc. Terms like that are meant to END a discussion not have one.

the far-leftwing colleges uses fascist tactics to supress dissent and other opinions.

The radical, leftist wing has taken over academia and now they are the FASCISTS who suppress the opinions and viewpoints of anyone that disagrees with their views. Shameful.
