I did, then left, then went back, then left in disgust once and for all.

Don't let hate move you. I'm sure there were nasty people in that uni you went to. But science is not all that.

Pure socialism has failed many times. But democratic socialism works quite well in some countries. Look at Sweden, Denmark, Finland for example.

Take it easy. You are seeing in black & white when there's an infinite amount of shades in between.

Actually any prof who works at the JMSB (the business school at Concordia University) is there because my sister pulled his/her CV from the pile of applicants, decided he/she had the qualifications needed, and then passed the CV to her boss who makes the hiring decisions. She also decides who is going to teach which course. I think I am quite familiar with what goes on in universities. I left for financial reasons the first time, and because of airheads the second time. This is not about 'hate'. This is about genuine education. We have the lowest tuition fees in all of Canada here, and still the students went on 'strike' demanding more. They physically threatened people who were only delivering supplies to the university, and the students at JMSB just ignored them and went on with their classes because, unlike the arts students who threatened them, JMSB students had a grip on both business and reality.

Also, I lived in Norway for a time, and saw the results of 'democratic socialism'. There are people right now in Sweden whose pensions won't buy them a cigar every week when it comes time to retire. I know these people. I would hardly call it 'seeing in black and white' when I have seen it first hand.

Please do not make assumptions simply because someone is saying something you don't want to hear.

To me, this article sounds like you hate these 'groups' you list in the article. The reaction gif sums it up for me.

It's not that I don't want to hear this. I did read it all, mind you.

I just don't believe you got the facts straight here. You seem to think all 'socialists', 'progressives', 'liberals' have the same agenda that you outlined in your post. And you seem to misrepresent their ideas, intentional or not. Transferring ownership of the banks to themselves? Who said that and where?

This just sounds to me like a personal grudge.
