“Your DNA is an abomination! White is over!” This article wasn’t written by some Californian hipster. No, this article was written in the middle of Texas, the heartland of freedom, Second Amendment advocacy — pretty much everything good about America. It was, however, written by a college student who hasn’t expressed any regret and is now being endorsed by a campus Antifa group.
Rudy Martinez is the Texas State University student who wrote the article entitled “Your DNA Is An Abomination,” referring to the DNA of white people, reported The College Fix. In the piece, he says “ontologically speaking, white death will mean liberation for all.” But if Martinez was just referring to whiteness ontologically, that is, abstractly, why does he use “DNA” in the very title of the piece? Does he want to destroy the postmodernist concept of “whiteness” as some invisible but almighty system of oppression, or does he actually, as his title indicates, think the very DNA of whites is degenerate?
“When I think of all the white people I have ever encountered – whether they’ve been professors, peers, lovers, friends, police officers, et cetera – there is perhaps only a dozen I would consider ‘decent,’” writes Martinez.
While his left-wing professors likely try to cloak anti-white hatred with academic lingo, their students seem to lack that discretion. After backlash, the Texas State paper retracted Martinez’s article and fired the writer. The university president also called it “abhorrent” and “contrary to [the school’s] core values of inclusion and unity.” But even though the student explicitly admitted that he doesn’t like white people, he still had his defenders.
Three Texas State history professors said they were “deeply troubled” with the president’s condemnation of the article, writing that “rather than engaging in debate, the University has essentially shunned the student, when, it must be emphasized, the student attempted (however ineffectually) to challenge the forces of bigotry and racism that the President denounced at the beginning of the semester.”
The Campus Antifascist Network — which is endorsed by professors like George “White Genocide” Ciccariello who blamed the Las Vegas massacre on white entitlement and Johnny E. Williams who wrote “let them f***ing die” about white people — also published a statement saying it stands with Martinez.
But when it came to the piece’s title, the network said “the title of his column ‘Your DNA is an abomination,’ directed at people socially designed as white, is inconsistent with scientific understanding.”
“Race is not a biological category. It is a social idea. But getting science wrong and being racist are also not the same thing,” the network added.
They’re not the same thing. But they are both applicable to the Campus Antifa Network, which thinks race is a social idea and supports an anti-white movement.
As for Texas State, from a deranged future teacher smashing pro-life signs to hiring math professors who are proficient in social justice, it doesn’t seem like 2017 has helped the notion that even the Lone Star state can withstand the divisive and violent forces of progressivism.
The Young Democratic Socialists of America chapter at Texas State University tweeted last week “Happy Pride Month, y’all! Remember this month: Let’s Guillotine Bourgeoisie Traitors,” according to Campus Reform.
Now, just think for a moment what would happen if a conservative student group tweeted something like this out about any group that wasn’t rich, white, or male. It would be labeled incitement to violence, the Twitter account would probably get banned, and a university bias team would probably conduct IP traces or something to find out exactly who made the post. But since it’s the left, eh, no big deal.
And that wasn’t the only thing Texas State’s YDSA chapter tweeted. The group went on to say “Also shout out to our E-Board/Coordinating Committee, which has literally no straight people on it.”
Because remember, discrimination or celebrating the absence of one identity group is totally OK, as long it’s done to the right groups. I’m reminded of this photo a former HuffPoster tweeted out showing an all-female, almost entirely all-white editor meeting.
One of the first words that came to her mind when sending that post was probably, unironically, “diversity.”
A Texas State University student dressed like Antifa had a bit of a rough time with police. The whole little kerfuffle started when a Trump-supporting student apparently had his hat stolen and kicked, reported Campus Reform.
Police arrested four Texas State students overall. Tyler, the student who says he got his hat stolen, didn’t want to reveal his full name to avoid getting doxxed, but told a colleague of mine over at Campus Reform that he felt someone take the hat off of his head and that he ran after the girl and grabbed her backpack, but never her, for around five seconds before asking for his hat back. But she reportedly didn’t give it back until the popo came, when she dropped and kicked it like you saw. And the unhinged hysteria only intensified after that:
It’s not clear whether the masked student we saw earlier calls herself Antifa but just a reminder that even though we haven’t had a proper Antifa video on Campus Unmasked for a little while now, they’re still out there. It looks like journalist Andy Ngo out in Portland had a little run-in with one on Wednesday.
The best thing you can do when they pepper spray you, knock off and kick your MAGA hat, and so on is simply don’t let them off the hook. It may take a little extra time, but upload that video to social media, file that police report. You might end up with some cases like bike lock professor Eric Clanton, who got all felony charges dropped, but even in a corrupt system, if you stack evidence upon evidence upon evidence, eventually something’s gotta change.
Two senators in Texas State’s student government wrote a resolution entitled “The Faculty and Student Safety Resolution of 2019,” reported Campus Reform. What would increase faculty and student safety? You got it — banning wrongthink on campus! The two senators wrote “Turning Point USA is a national organization with a consistent history of creating hostile work and learning environments through a myriad of intimidation tactics aimed against students and faculty.”
You know, intimidation tactics like dressing up in a diaper to own the libs. No but seriously, they’re probably talking about Turning Point’s professor watchlist, which lists left-wing professors on campus, but if you wanna talk about list-making, you might wanna address a certain other political faction, as well.
Anyway, you know this really isn’t about Turning Point’s method, but rather the matter, the substance of their speech. The resolution apparently accused the group of “hate speech,” saying “protecting hate speech under the guise that it is a component of free speech or academic freedom is counter-intuitive to providing a safe, healthy, fact-based, evidence-based environment.”
OK so even if you do buy into the premise that hate speech is a thing, Turning Point is literally like the most innocuous, boilerplate political group out there. Its mission is to get students “to promote the principles of freedom, free markets, and limited government.” Oooooh. I mean you really can’t get more milquetoast than that. Anyways, the student government initially didn’t pass the resolution to ban Turning Point, but there was some procedural confusion, the senators took a revote, and it passed by a 9-2 margin.
You know that meme “Ima let you finish but…”? from when Kanye interrupted Taylor Swift? Well, that’s pretty much what happened when Texas State responded to the student government, saying “student organizations can only be barred if they are under disciplinary sanctions. Student Government does not have the authority to independently bar a recognized student organization.”
