Students at the University of Florida believed the name “Black Friday” should be changed until they learned that it has nothing to do with race.Referencing a November 18 opinion article in the Chicago Tribune called “Talk of the County: Black Friday should be renamed so it is not ‘discriminating and profiling against black people,’” Campus Reform reporter Ophelie Jacobson asked students at the schools Gainesville campus if they supported changing the name of Black Friday — the day after Thanksgiving on which millions of Americans storm retail shops to get holiday deals for gifts and other items.“I think equality’s important,” one student said in response, while another said “I mean,

If you don’t know why Black Friday is called Black Friday, how in the world did you ever make it to college? Do these kids live in a bubble? Or are they so connected to their devices and social media that they are without basic knowledge? Come on, now. I believe these kids are programmed to see everything through the prism of race. They are looking for something to get upset about. However, this borders on the absurd. The generation who believes they know everything, actually know very little and what they do know is not worth knowing. Not all, mind you, but an alarming number are ignorant of basic facts.

These coddled idiots are about to get their “welcome to the NFL” moment when they graduate with huge debt loads and find out that they are basically worthless to private employers…..

NYC's Museum of Natural History has both 'Black Friday' and 'In The Red' covered by removing Jefferson and Roosevelt.

I expected that from the primo economist of the 21st century, AOC. But because it's from the Uni of Floriduh, it's also expected. It appears that these college students haven't got a clue about real life, but what is regurgitated from real idiots. We are doomed.

I watched the whole video and came away heartened. Campus Reform often videos from the University of Florida and quite frankly many of that university's students do not come off as very knowledgeable at all.
Granted, CR is cherry-picking the interviews that they include so I assume they find the most egregious ones to highlight whatever point they are making with any particular video.
That being said, these kids, while of course sounding at first as if they were born on some planet named "SJW Woke" instead of "Earth", eventually make some fairly level-headed comments by the end.
Perhaps there is some hope after all. Watch this video for more explanation, re: the Theory of Stupidity

#1 correct on all points. These kids grow up with a device stuck in their face, if they get news it’s from yahoo or other left wing propagandist web site. They don’t have a clue how to balance a check book and are not able to think critically. So much for the future of our country.

We have the 'baby boomer' generation the 'gen Xers', millennials now these will be known as generation doofus.
When everything is racially oriented, I can understand them thinking race is involved it's how they will live with their PC lives forever.

Everything must be racial to a lot of young people...Black Friday as racist and the Salvation Army as needing equal positioning ...is ridiculous...my darling husband was 100% Polish and took many jokes on the chin...but laughed because he was included as an American...he served this great country for 5 years during WWII and Korea wearing his navy uniform with pride...so my message to young kids with nothing better to do...get over yourselves!!

College students these days are pretty dim, and generally badly served by their HS teachers. Too much indoctrination into racial hatred, far too little learning of actual American history and civics.
And damned little "common sense" anywhere.

And do these "university students" ---- so ignorant yet so sure of themselves, aren't they-- know that the word "niggardly" is of Scandinavian origin and has nothing to do with race?

A 1950's Final Examination for 8th Graders, which included Basic: Math, History, English, and Science, was given to college students in 5 different states. Only 11% scored a passing grade. Idiotic liberal policies have turned our students into Liberal Idiots. Mission accomplished.

If these people are really students at university, they are wasting their time and learning nothing. Since many are on scholarships (?), it makes no difference to them because they aren't paying for it anyway. Offend this! FJB.
