MONEY DOESN'T TALK, IT SWEARS.
A 16-year veteran professor at the CUNY subsidiary [Brooklyn College], Mr. [Mitchell] Langbert claims he was denied the opportunity to propose a multimillion-dollar grant to the Charles G. Koch Foundation because of the organization’s Republican roots. Mr. Langbert had been working with the Koch foundation on the proposal since mid-2013...
“Given the shocking suppression—the almost total absence—of anyone who does not agree with far-left ideology at Brooklyn College, saying that there might be controversy because there’s a Koch grant is like saying that you will not tolerate any conservative viewpoint to be expressed here,” Mr. Langbert responded.
Seethes Ian Tuttle at National Review:
N.B. to prospective collegians: If you’re looking for a genuinely open-minded academic experience, Brooklyn College may not be the place for you.
There's something perfect about conservatives flipping out because someone refused to take their money. We always knew they believe money is speech, but it's getting easier to see that they also think money is the pre-eminent form of expression -- the one all others exist to serve. That's why they're so pissed that someone won't accept theirs -- because it's money censorship! (In the conservative world, as we see again and again and again, censorship is when their point of view doesn't get ahead of anyone else's.) Libtards have refused to listen to their money!
Money talks and bullshit walks -- and to them, bullshit is anything that's not money.
