College Students Claim Objective 'Truth' Is A Racist 'Myth'
It's finally happened: the Social Justice Left has openly called objective "truth" a racist "myth" steeped in "white supremacy."
What else could it be?

As the letter continues, the students explain that free speech has been "appropriated by hegemonic institutions" and should ultimately be curtailed because "it has given those who seek to perpetuate systems of domination a platform to project their bigotry."
It remains unclear as to who would be deciding which speech is kosher and which is not, but, presumably, their non-binary snowflake feelings would dictate such.

Then comes the galling truth-is-a-racist-myth rant (emphasis added):
Additionally, Mac Donald, the pro-police journalist and Black Lives Matter critic at the center of the free speech conflict, was labeled "a fascist, a white supremacist, a warhawk, a transphobe, a queerphobe, a classist, and ignorant of interlocking systems of domination that produce the lethal conditions under which oppressed peoples are forced to live" — without evidence, of course.
Transphobe
Queeerphobe
I guess Queers and Trans are seperate now :shrug:
classist - had to look this up - you discriminate by class - Class Warfare something progressives have been doing for decades

Then comes the galling truth-is-a-racist-myth rant (emphasis added):
Historically, white supremacy has venerated the idea of objectivity, and wielded a dichotomy of ‘subjectivity vs. objectivity’ as a means of silencing oppressed peoples. The idea that there is a single truth–’the Truth’–is a construct of the Euro-West that is deeply rooted in the Enlightenment, which was a movement that also described Black and Brown people as both subhuman and impervious to pain. This construction is a myth and white supremacy, imperialism, colonization, capitalism, and the United States of America are all of its progeny. The idea that the truth is an entity for which we must search, in matters that endanger our abilities to exist in open spaces, is an attempt to silence oppressed peoples.
