Most Whites Must Adhere to Ivy League University Vaccination Requirement; Minorities Allowed To Claim Racism To Opt Out
2020-12-29
This is what institutional racism looks like. The university wants to increase the odds that students “of colour” die.
[Western Journal] Cornell students are required to get a flu vaccination before arriving on campus as part of the Cornell Student Behavioral Compact in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Or, to put it more accurately, white students are required to get a flu vaccination.

Most white students, anyway. If you’re Caucasian, you must obtain a medical or religious exemption in order to opt out.

Meanwhile, all "Black," "Indigenous" and other students of color are allowed to cite their racial identity — or a medical or religious reason — as a cause for exemption from the Ivy League school’s requirement.

"Students who identify as Black, Indigenous, or as a Person of Color (BIPOC) may have personal concerns about fulfilling the Compact requirements based on historical injustices and current events," Cornell’s website reads.

#19  Last autumn our campus was humming:
Big games! Cheering! Somersaults! Drumming!
Such pep, yet we wept
As we mourned the misstep
Of our mascot, poor Touchdown the Lemming.

#14   Cornell is always near the bottom.

Well, sure. They’re in the middle of New York State, after all, which is is practically the Midwest — in Ithaca — and they have a state Ag-Tech college attached, whose students can join Cornell classes as if they were equals.

#13  There is a fairly rigid pecking order in the Ivy League, and Cornell is always near the bottom.

Trying to be more woke than thou is one of their ways in trying to improve their status within the Ivy League.

#12  Don't want to be jabbed?

Just identify as whatever you want that day...

Don't let them discriminate against those who long for the day they can get surgery to correct them to their attack helicopter form they should've been born into.

#11  amazing that they would think that 'historical injustices' have any effect on their precious 'science'

or rather than amazing, probably typical

#10  Every time I see this rd heads face, I think about that Comedy Actor called "Carrot Top".

Then remember Mr. Rush's has pointed out in his Undeniable Truths

#24: Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women access to the mainstream of society.

#15: The Peace Movement in the U.S. – whether by accident or design – is pro-Communist.

#22: Morality is not defined and cannot be defined by individual choice.


#33: There will always be poor people.

#34: This is not the fault of the rich.

#35: You should thank God for making you an American; and instead of feeling guilty about it, help spread our ideas worldwide.

#9   rather the upper middle-class and wealthy types who are not violent but who virtue signal, give BLM money and/or plant BLM signs on their lawns

In that case I must apologize — you both are absolutely correct.

I believe #4 HDLOTS was not talking about Antifa, rather the upper middle-class and wealthy types who are not violent but who virtue signal, give BLM money and/or plant BLM signs on their lawns

#6  Ref #1: WTF is happening to our country?

Sadly, I believe we all know what is "happening" Flereger Chusomble. It's the what to do about it that confounds us.

#5   BLM extortionists and their idiotic white cucks

Not cucks. Another co-equal flavour of anarcho-terrorist attached to the same core organization, each flavour over the years targetted to seduce a particular audience to join in the same hoary goal they’ve been working toward for a century. To see it as user and used is to miss half the story.

#4  Republicans -- actually, the Party needs to rename itself, probably something like the Patria Party to emphasize that the Romney/Bush Family/"Lincoln Project" bullshit has zero place in this party -- er Patriots need to rally the nation's husoanic and Asian populations against this nightmare.

The support is there. This is a sleeping giant. In November, the pro-affirmative action Prop 16 in California was crushed by Asians. Immigrants of all varieties shifted toward Trump in massive proportions in November.

Time to isolate these BLM extortionists and their idiotic white cucks. They are not the majority. Not even close.

#3  Bye Plessy, See ya Ferguson don't let the door hit ya on the way out, separate but equal is making a come back after 66 years. The doctrine of "separate but equal" supported the idea of races being separate, so long as they received "equal" facilities and treatment to that which the whites had or received. For example, separate but equal dictated that blacks and whites use separate water fountains, schools, and even medical care.

The law of full circle at play

#2  I identify as a Person Of Color.

White is a color.

White is the most diverse and inclusive color you can imaging because, technically, White is all colors!

#1  It's starting. Quite the precedent, this is.

Does anyone believe in the equal protection clause anymore?

Why do we even have a Constitution?

WTF is happening to our country?
