“I expected that I was paying this fortune, all this time and energy, to learn how to think. But they are forcing you to think the way they want you to think,” Park told Fox News. “I realized, wow, this is insane. I thought America was different but I saw so many similarities to what I saw in North Korea that I started worrying.”

Her interview with Jordan Peterson was tremendous.

Her interview with Jordan Peterson was tremendous.

I didn't realize she had an interview with JP.  Thanks Pundit.

Her interview with Jordan Peterson was tremendous.

Apart from all the apalling things she went through, a little part of that interview actually made me slightly happy. When asked about which classes she actually liked in university, which was not infused too much with social justice, she mentions the human evolution course that she took. That's the kind of thing that I teach :) (albeit at a different university)

Along these lines, a young woman who grew up in Africa talks about some of the similarites she percieves between the current US situation and African situations.

Unfortunately, this isn't new. I went to college back in the stone age of the late 80s and international students from Africa and Latin America would hear some leftist bullshit noise (sooo mild compared to today) on campus and their responses were priceless.
