Universities: Welcome to the Left’s Dystopia

By Published on November 2, 2015

Nov. 2, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) – What does the Left want our society to look like? What is their endgame? This is a question that often comes up in the circles I travel in.

There are many answers to that question, of course, but I think one encapsulates things quite nicely: Universities. In order to see what the ideal endgame for the Left is, we simply need to look at institutions where they hold nearly complete power and impose their agenda with totalitarian impunity.

Freedom of speech, for example, is virtually non-existent. Universities claim to be marketplaces of ideas, but in reality, they are often simply enforcers of left-wing ideology. This year, the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms only awarded eight A’s for campus free speech, while assigning forty-one universities with an F grade. Any Christian, conservative, or pro-lifer can attest to the fact that advocating for those positions at university often comes with great cost, imposed by university administrations, to liberal professors, to student unions. The student society of the University of Victoria, for example, actually denied the pro-life club’s right to exist on campus because posters they hung up advertising a debate between a pro-life speaker and a pro-choice ethicist “harassed” women. Even a debate in which both sides of the issue present their arguments is considered “harassment,” because on campuses, only one point of view is permitted.
