Bill Maher: American Kids Are Way Too Confident
An afternoon at Karen summer camp. Patriotism is back. Lonely hearts. And more.
On today’s Front Page from The Free Press: Olivia Reingold goes to Karen summer camp; Julia Steinberg reports that patriotism is back; John Sailer uncovers the latest DEI excesses at Yale; lonely hearts; and much more. Scientists earn a high score in the category of “DEI knowledge” by showing they understand the “specific challenges faced by underrepresented minorities”—a criterion likely to favor those with a strong faith in the concepts of microaggressions, implicit bias, and systemic racism. Events on the agenda include “Synergy Beltane,” a party at an “anti-hierarchical home that centers people marginalized by the matrix of the existing systems of oppression.” The hosts promise to kick out “those perpetuating behaviors or ideas of misogyny, racism, transphobia, homophobia, fatphobia, anti-blackness, anti-indigeneity, or ableism.” Also on the social calendar for fun-loving students are a “Queerceanera” and a “Land Back Rager.” I hope I make it past the bouncer!
