This educational lecture is inspired by Chris Hedge's book Death of the Liberal Class: we live in a constitutional Republic where dissenting individuals and minorities are equal under the law (14th amendment): we are supposed to be protected from fascist take-overs, abuse of power, undue influence, and discrimination. Learn about my fascist experience at The University of Texas at Austin involving workplace mobbing, invasion of privacy, institutional discrimination, institutional racism, manufacturing consent, undue influence, and suppression of information! It was terrible dealing with spiteful people on a weekly basis who have a terrible inferiority complex: so terrible that they collectively wished I would die. According to researchers (Davenport, Westhues, Leymann, etc.) workplace mobbing is used to destroy someone: mainly because it leaves no fingerprints. Workplace mobbing usually results in suicide or sometimes homicide; but it is even more common for the victim to have post traumatic stress syndrome which is what I have. Workplace mobbing is also a euphemism and doublethink for illegal discrimination or worse. I am glad that I no longer live in Austin, Texas nor did I continue to attend UT Austin - an anti-liberal institution where fascist corporatism, workplace mobbing, "free speech zones," "snitch culture," informant systems, provocateurs, front groups, and hellish personalities run rampant: it is all very indicative of the putrefaction of our current society. I felt harassed by Martha Compton, Dr. LaToya Hill, Dr. Isabella Cunningham, Dr. Michael Mackert, Dr. Marina Choi, Dr. Marla Craig, Dr. Diana Damer, Keith Arrington, Bruce Jeffers, and April Blackmon. Katherine Antwi Green of Institutional Equity conducted an unhelpful investigation when I filed formal discrimination complaints against Martha Compton to her office.

  • Good, informative video. Thank you. Yes, most students are not abused but many are, for no good reason other then it's easy to do because they're powerless, unusual, or too different in their ideologies. People who do this are far removed from their own mortality and hope to live forever, in some way. It's a "flight from death" for them. They fear death and this is a way for them to feel like something they do is worthwhile or at least a diversion. See movie, "Flight from Death

  • @katinthemeadows I absolutely agree when you said many conservatives do it. Everybody who instigated the harassment against me, all of which were employees of the university, were mostly conservatives and a few were so-called liberals. It's strange so many intellectuals claiming love for diversity could have so many "misunderstandings," "personality conflicts," and "mistakes" made with me. Strange how that just "happens." 

  • @dutytocareforothers I have not been abused but every colored person knows when they are being singled out for being a nonwhite.

  • @missaquaboogie White people believe that there are no consequences for singling people out. Now with blogging the power is in the hands of the minorities to create fairness.

  • My only criticism is that you imply that outside of UT all is well. But your experience is just about universal in American colleges. I think the bigger question is, how can we fix this? Can we return the universities to the original meaning of "liberal" which did not always bear the stain of propaganda and ruthless greed? I remember old professors back in 1971, a dying breed. One in particular told us this was coming and I could see it, too. Best to drop out and persuade others to drop out.

  • @DeniseMatteau I think my experience is universal in American colleges and American corporations. Those homogeneous groups or cliques are tough to deal with. An outsider can easily turn into a scapegoat. And a scapegoat can easily be accused of being deluded and criminally-minded. However, if you can get a psychologist to evaluate the mobbing case and diagnosis it as "post traumatic stress syndrome" then it is a verifiable injury caused by the workplace mobbing. That's what I did :)

  • Apparently you're a right-brain thinker. UT Austin seems like a poster-child for what's wrong with American education in general; inflexible in dealing with alternate methods of teaching that inspire creativity & fresh insights from intuitive & critical students. Corporate-controlled & financed institutions want an army of automatons, not a group of independent, progressive thinkers to populate our society; efficiency reigns over value-of-life with them.  We need a social revolution!

  • Countless other bright, promising students attending university (indeed, public school as well) all over America have and are now having to endure similar abuse. However, the fact that you emerged out of that cesspool of bigotry and hostility with your determination and morality more resolute than ever indicates that your experiences at UT were not utterly in vain, as I'm sure many will find your videos to be assuring at the least, enlightening at most. Thank you for this.

  • Thank you for posting. I thought that there was something suspicious about the Tooley incident. Perhaps, the issues highlighted in your post played a role in Tooley's actions. I also believe that gaslighting has become a nearly national phenomenon; and my experiences at an Ivy League school bear striking similarities to your experiences at UT Austin. The fact that few people dare to speak out is especially frightening. Again, thank you for posting. We need more liberal student activists!!!

  • @katinthemeadows I have gotten lower grades for writing about white supremacy and sexism...other students say the same...and I'm a "A/B" student.

There are nasty profs fucking girls for grades...and the low self esteem women smh how did we get to this mess? I want to exit the world...not die...just move unto another planet...that these white christian male supremacists haven't stuck their tentacles into---soul sucking machines...
