OPINION (CR) – With the rise of politically correct culture, students and universities have vehemently pushed for diversity and inclusivity movements, resulting in many things being labeling “offensive.” In the past, students have signed fake petitions to ban “offensive” holidays like Valentine’s Day and even Christmas to push diversity and inclusion. Amid these ongoing diversity and inclusivity movements, Campus Reform went to George Washington University in Washington, D.C., where students previously voted to ban their “offensive” Colonials mascot. GW students also previously told Campus Reform that President
Barack Obama is the best president in U.S. history. Campus Correspondent Ethan Cai asked George Washington students if they supported changing “offensive” crosswalk lights because the “walk” sign only portrays an image of a white man. How far will this movement of diversity and inclusion go? Where will the line be drawn for what is considered offensive? “As we students cross the street, we are told by the symbol of a white man when it is okay to cross,” the fake petition stated. “Many students from diverse backgrounds, including individuals of color, gender fluid individuals, and LGBTQA+ individuals, feel oppressed by this.” READ MORE
You’ve got to be kidding, but then again when it comes to liberal college kids I guess it’s real. Time to put our foot down on this “offensive” nonsense. We’ve had these mascots and cross-walk symbols which have been vetted and are now a part of life. I find rainbow cross-walk icons offensive so be ready when others like me start filing against these ridiculous politically incorrect changes.
