Alaska Politics
 
****************************************************************************

1.  First they politicized admissions.
2.  Then, after he invasion, they politicized the curriculum.
White Man Bad.
white female wonderful.
and, oh yeah. minority men too.

3.  People not on the campuses don't have a clue
about what's going on.,

That's the story, or rather, the thesis,
to put it in universityspeak,
of D'Souza's "Illiberal Education."

Doesn't Everybody Know Now That D'Souza's Book Is Out ?
Well, Dinesh was on "Firing Line"
and limbaugh probably blabbed about it for a while
but nobody cares anymore.
Most people aren't educated enough
to know that a nonsense curriculum matters.
And the liberals are just educated into their Mythologies,
so they have to accept the new Mythologies.
It's a quid pro quo.

Wow !
That Sounds Like Latin.
That Must Be A Profound Idea,
Profundis, As They Say.
My 401k is in a Profundis Account.
It's Sort Of A
Slow Growth Variable Risk Annuity High Bullshit
Reverse Logic Antidisestablishmentarianism Account
Yeah.
Per Se.
Our Graduate Student remembers the day
they mocked him for using the phrase "per se."
They probably didn't know what it meant.
Or, maybe they did
and just jumped on it to mock the white man.
Apparently they knew what "such that" meant, so too maybe
they knew what "per se" meant.
"Don't say 'such that.'
It confuses the students,"
she squeaked one day at "The Graduate," like squeaky fromme.
They seemed to like that phrase there at "The Graduate."
They could all admire one another.
After all, 'such that' didn't confuse them.
Yes, they were the 'in' crowd.
They loved that phrase
for illustrating their superiority.
"Yes," they thought, "We understand "such that,"
but the rest of the students here at sac state don't.
"Oh ! To endure this state university !
We belong at stanford !"
But, when Our Graduate Studen!
t lightly tosses out a "per se,"
"HA HA HA.
PER SE !
Our Graduate Student said "Per Se !"
HA HA HA !"
raucus laughter.
"HA HA HA !
What does it mean, Graduate Student ?
Tell us what "per se" means, Graduate Student !
HA HA HA !
HA HA HA !
HA HA HA !"

What Does "Per Se" Mean ?
Oh, it just means "of itself" or "in itself."
In other words, if you asked me,
"Is it your goal to rule the world,
Mr. Graduate Student ?",
I would reply,
"That's not my goal,
PER SE.
I just want to eliminate nonsense curriculums
at our most elite universities
and execute the bratty, troublemaking
self-styled 'activists'
who make learning impossible.
In order to do that,
I have to become emperor, or vicar, or czar of the world.
so it is not my goal to rule the world, per se.
It is merely a stepping stone to improving education.

That Makes Sense.
I'm Hungry.  Let's Eat.
HA HA HA !
HA HA HA !
HA HA HA !
You idiot !
Isn't he an idiot everyone ?!
"Yes, he's an idiot !
HA HA HA !
HA HA HA !
HA HA HA !"

Why Are You All Laughing At Me !?
I Don't Like That !
That's So Rude !
It's your revolutionary consciousness.

What's Wrong With My Revolutionary Consciousness ?
You don't have one.
That's what's wrong with it.
If you had a revolutionary consciousness,
you would NEVER have said,
"I'm hungry. Let's eat."

Why Not ?

Oh, you fascist !
We're really gonna have to work on you !
We'll start by making fun of you all the time !
You see,
when you say,
"I'm hungry.  Let's eat !",
you're saying that everyone should eat
because YOU'RE hungry.
That's Sooooooooooooo selfish !
You should have determined
the needs and desires of the commune first.
Maybe they don't want to eat right now.
And maybe they don't want some damn fascist
telling them to eat !
Who the hell made you the fucking czar of food, anyway !?

OK OK.
I'm On Board With That.
Revolutionary Consciousness.
Ridicule The Bourgeois Pigs.
Got it. Got it.
I'm Just Wondering...
Are You Havin' Flashbacks
To Your Revolutionary Days.
Movin' Mount Everest with a teaspoon.

Huh ?
Movin' Mount Everest with a teaspoon.

All Right. All Right.
Lie Down.
Lie Down Right Here.
Now, Tell Us ALL About It.
Well, it's like this, see.
The stress is gettin' to me and I think I'm gonna crack.
There's so much to write !
So much to say !
And I gotta do it JUST RIGHT !
I mean, I shouldn't have to explain all this crap in the first place.
I never should have had to voice my complaints about
"white woman women's libber, black man nword,
white men have it coming !
can't say "gal"
'such that' we laugh with the feminazi,
'per se' we laugh at the white man."
I mean, where the hell so you start in such a crazy world !?
How do you reason with people who don't understand
that one plus one equals two ?
If they don't understand that
they'll never understand any of my explanations ANYWAY !
It's like moving Mount Everest with a teaspoon.

So, now I sit, halfway through the narrative and spent,
with so much more to say.
Should I explain to them what's in D'Souza's book
or just tell them to read it for themselves.
They won't.

Do I talk more about Alaska
about teaching in the bush,
about my three abusive experiences with the univ of alaska ?
Do I talk about Alaska politics
and Senator Ted Stevens and the National Guard ?

I mean, I have to get through Alaska and back to ca.
Gotta talk about my racist neighbor and racist neighborhood,
how I was attacked on my own doorstep
and he wasn't prosecuted.
Then they put it all on the Judge Judy program.
Was all THAT part of the conspiracy ?
Gotta talk about Palm Springs and Dick Clark and Burbank.
Fillin' in the details help, see ?
Some of this stuff may be connected to the conspiracy
and some may not.
So, I gotta tell the whole story.
I keep remembering things and then forgetting them again.
Most important, I have to get to
the three pillars well connected to the conspiracy
1.  yolo county education administrator elizabeth ruport
tried to entrap me into committing fraud
in the credential renewing process.
2.  U.S. Senator barbara boxer tried to
frame me with bankruptcy fraud.
3.  The rino schwarzenegger prosecuted me for a trifle
and tried to convict me as a felony fraud,
while NOT prosecuting his cronies.

Those are the three undeniable pillars of the conspiracy,
but sometimes, as I write the story,
I think the telling of the story with all the little details
is much, much more illustrative and important.

For example, that "I'm hungry. Let's eat !" thing
comes from a "commune" experience around 1971 or so.
Our Graduate Student was in a small group of four.
One of them was a young college professor
who was the focus of the strike and protests and campus unrest
at st peters college in jersey city in '68 - '69.
Another was an older activist who worked at Bantam Books in Manhattan
and was part of the Lower East Side scene in the days of Abbie Hoffman.
Our Graduate Student looked up to them in those crazy days
when you didn't know who to trust or believe.

But it turned into nonsense.
They started talking about robbing a bank !
These were well-educated middle class people !
A college professor and a genius working at Bantam Books !
It was all about "revolutionary consciousness,"
Jerry Rubin's "Steal This Book."
Marxism. Communism. "Property is theft."
Bonnie and Clyde.
They were like a bunch of fucking kids.
They WERE a bunch of fucking kids, little punkass brats.
The bantam books genius talked about charles manson
as being "one of us."
Our Graduate Student just ignored that.
Figured the guy musta been making some intelligent witty remark
that went over his head.
So in recent decades, Our Graduate Student's been studying history
and putting the story together more and more.
bill ayers dedicated a book to sirhan sirhan.
Then there's the mark rudd quote in Diane Ravitch's book.
rudd started the protests at columbia
and st peters college was a copycat protest.
Then there's the kidnapping of Patty Hearst
and mary jane olson sla soliah soul sistuh robbing a bank
and killing a church lady
and the sacramento d.s. jan scully won't prosecute her !
But she prosecutes
Our Graduate Student for poor penmanship !
Our Graduate Student has to put up with shit and abuse
at "The Graduate" at sac state
where they make fun of him for saying "per se" in a sentence
while they're spouting off so much
god damned ridiculous shit they could be fertiler.
So Our Graduate student remembers when
they made fun of this young fellow for saying,
"I'm hungry. Let's eat."
They mocked him and mocked him and mocked him
because that statement reflected a bourgeous "consciousness."
What a bunch of shit.
It's all a bunch of shit.
Actually, he was one of two brothers who was hosting them
on his mother's abandoned farm in upstate New York.
"Revolutionaries on vacation," the bantam books guy said.
They had just come from an exhausting campaign against the war,
and they were spent.
(They spent a weekend in D.C. partying and yelling in the streets.)
Revolutionaries don't go on fucking vacation.
Besides, they weren't fucking revolutionaries !
It was all childish nonsense !
They talked about robbing a bank.
Just like the weathermen and like the sla would do.
The movie industry had trivialized and popularized it,
like they do to everything,
with Bonnie and Clyde.
Now Our Graduate Student's cohort was talking about robbing a bank.
How chic !
per se. I'm hungry, let's eat.
bonnie and clyde. mary jane olson sla soliah sistuh.
It worse than moving Mount Everest with a teaspoon.
It's like being a "Math Teacher,"
which means teaching 5th grade ARITHMETIC
over and over and over and over and over and over...
to THE SAME KIDS
in high school, remedial college classes, adult school...
5th grade arithmetic - fractions, decimals, percents...
and meanwhile you have teachers struggling to pass the CBEST test...
ANOTHER 5th grade arithmetic test.

bill ayers, "guilty as hell and free as a bird.
what a great country.
mark rudd, a nice teaching career in new mexico.
mary jane olson soliah sla doncha think
a wonderful human being for being in a school play.

critical shortage of math and science teachers.
Our Graduate Student scrapin' up coins for some Top Ramen.

You Just Need Some Rest.
Don't Give Up.
Just Let It All Out.
Fuck 'em.
Fuck 'em ALL.
They'll all DIE eventually.
That's a comforting thought.

OK
Very Easily.

OK
Very Easily.

OK
