Dartmouth now bans white people from using the word 'fiesta'

Thomas Lifson 

The race to the bottom for most obsessively politically-correct Ivy League campus has a new front-runner. Dartmouth, once known as the most free-spirited home of the “Dartmouth animal” in the 1960s, when it was all-male, has seized the lead. Capitalism is Freedom reports: …the fracas is over a fundraiser for cardiac care that the Phi Delta Alpha fraternity and the Alpha Phi sorority had planned to jointly sponsor, reports Campus Reform. Problems arose because a single student, junior Daniela Hernandez, was offended by the party’s theme of “Phiesta.” As a result, the soiree, which was scheduled for Saturday, has been canceled by the presidents of the respective Greek organizations. Had the party happened, it would have included a live band as well as virgin piña coladas and strawberry daiquiris. There would also have been burritos, chips and salsa, and guacamole. The cash raised at the event would have..(Read Full Post)

"This is starting to get ridiculous. Politically Correct has woosified this country. I'm white so I
can't say Fiesta, but I'm allowed to say PARTY? Give me a f**king break! So I guess eating at Taco Bell is now considered culturally insensitive and racist? And what happens to those Dartmouth students whose choice of automobile happens to be the Ford Fiesta? Will they have to check the student's ethnicity to make sure they're allowed to park that particular car on a campus parking lot? Is the next word to be banned Doritos? This little leftist activist should have been laughed at and told to piss off, instead of having her bullshit grievance honored. "Mexican born"? Why do we care what she has to say, and why is she here? If she is so f**king proud of her "country", why doesn't she go back there? Someone needs to tell this new "Wise Latina", she had better learn more about American culture.

We have sunk to new low bowing level of apologizing to an "offended" party. Personally I find all those offended offensive to those that have to deal with them. At the risk of being branded "insensitive," I suggest that the offended should just lighten up, and get a life. That said, the idea that a single person can shut down a charitable event like this is just beyond pathetic. What passes for multiculturalism today is not what it was intended to be. It's simply become an excuse and rallying cry for hate and power mongering, in way too many cases by the left. Everything I need to know about Ivy League Universities, their students and faculty, I learned from watching the 0bowel administration at work. 0bowel himself and many others in his circus of an icompetent administration are graduates of Ivy League schools or post graduate schools, law schools, whatever. Watching 0bowel and his boot licking follower's stumble and bumble their way through international relations, the economy, national defense and many other topics is painful enough to make my eyeballs bleed. I would rather sleep on a bed of nails the rest of my life than have to deal with what is coming out of these Ivy League schools. This little poor, poor whinning leftist oppressed child attending higher education. This little poor, poor whinning leftist foreign minority, with the 'privilege' of being offended by the people of a country she has adopted and reaped the benefits of. This is insanity on parade, both this young whinner and the faculty. I am learning that there is no limits to wasting time and money. Looks to me like we have another affirmative action illegal alien scamming the American system." MC
