>University of London students are demanding that thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, Voltaire, and Immanuel Kant be banned from the philosophy syllabus because they are white.

If they want to learn African and Asian philosophy, go to school in Africa and Asia. There are thousands of Chinese people that come to school here specifically for a western education. They don't complain about anything and 4.0 every class.

Literally who gives a fuck? I'll play devil's advocate and go so far as to say that Plato, Aristotle, Voltaire, and Immanuel Kant aren't relevant to Africa or Asia. Removing them because they're white, when you're not studying what is white, makes perfect fucking sense, and I can't believe how easy some people are to trigger.

Don't give a fuck, but still, the idea that students should control what they're taught it pretty antithetical to any notion of formal academic standards.

Who cares? Anglo culture has been a cess pool for centuries now.

I will not stand in their way if they want to accelerate their downward spiral. Ban the parasitic royalty, while you're at it.

When England is completely in ruins, then finally Scotland and Ireland will have total freedom.
