This episode of Penn and Teller's Bullshit aired over 9 years ago. It covers the liberal bias, SJWs, diversity bullshit, and much of the poison that has infected institutions of higher learning.

I don't always agree with their views and conclusions, but I still loved their blunt and scathing presentations.

Talk about ahead of it's time!
Both clips are well worth the watch, they've really nailed what's going on in the University system in the West and how "diversity" is foisted upon people, whether they like it or not.

Highly recommend the entire "Bullshit" series.

It's very red pill.

[Ziltoid]

Excellent show.
These guys and Christopher Hitchens are maybe the only people associated with skepticism that I like.

P&T's libertarian and purple pill rhetoric have led to them being a pariah in the skeptic community. Especially from the tiny wristed liberal "big government can solve everything" betaboys over at JREF.

Seems like only comedians can get away with pointing out how absurd our culture has become...

It amazes me how people still try to defend college as a good idea and a way to earn more money. Thats all based on 80s/90s data. Newer data in the next 20 years is going to be scary.

I suspended my 'college career' about a year ago and havent really felt better in my life. I have free time, no stress about homework, or retarded papers or tests. I go to work, and come home for my own time. Every two weeks I get money coming in rather than going out. Its not the best job possible, but for right now, its good until I am ready to move on in a few more months. I can remember my work life a lot better than my years in college, which are mostly a blur except for some highlights.

And now, considering how dangerous and marxist-infested campuses are, I wouldnt even want to go back. Maybe I would do online classes, but I am done with campuses.

I've been watching Bullshit all day. I also highly recommend the episode on taxes.

Oops. Wrong thread.

Man...

I can't wait until this semester is fuckinng over.

Classic. I'm a big Penn Jillette fan, and him and Teller's show "Bullshit" has a lot of good logical and analytical truths to it. They do a great job of dismantling fallacies and pointing out the absurdity of contemporary social norms. I honestly feel like they could have gone harder on this, but then again this was also the early 2000's. Things have changed a fair amount in the past decade. Pretty on point.

To that token I'm going to start working on an ROK article about why dating college educated women is a poor decision.

And Meagan? I'd bang the living shit out of that tight little coed. Mmm

I wish I could get one of these white kids, especially the blonde, in my vehicle. I'd take them to a little town known as Newark, NJ. Lots of diversities there. I think they'd have a good time.

What are you basing this on? Penn's appearance at the 2014 Amazing Meeting, organized by JREF, was a major part of its advertising.

One of the best shows ever, also check out their live show at the Rio next time you're in Vegas, saw it a few years ago and they offer 2 for 1 tickets to military, after the show they both run out of the theater and post up for autographs and photos in the hallway and stay until everyone is gone, really cool guys.

I'm not really referring to the foundation itself (Randi and P&T have been friends for a long time), I'm talking about the community surrounding it.
Stop in to the JREF forum or IRC sometime. Quite politically correct and left-leaning.

Let her visit Baltimore and see how nice they'd treat her.

There more diversities in Newark than Baltimore. Also, I could give a grand tour of the city and the surrounding areas (East Orange and Irvington) since I spend a lot of time on the roads in the area. I'd start at Seton Hall University in South Orange, where they would be surrounded by their kind of diversity (a hivemind with many different colors). We'd then go into the outskirts of East Orange and work our way into the North of Newark (lots of hispanics, not that terrible an area). From there we would work our way south into downtown (they'd be comfortable here). We'd move east into the Ironbound section (Portuguese and Brazillians. Lots of resturants here. Again, not too bad of an area). Going south, we head into South Ironbound (Industrial area, I spend most of my time here). Then comes the fun part of the journey as we cross back over McCarter Highway into the real shit, the south part of Newark. This is where a good portion of the crime is. It's all poor people, mostly black with a smattering of hispanics, and a few white drug addicts. I'm hoping to his this area after dark because this is when diversity really shines. They should bring some money so we can pick up some gifts at the shop (heroin from the corner drug dealer, also $100 should help you survive a mugging). After exploring this area, we'll get back on to South Orange Ave., dodge the bullets and get back to Seton Hall University where they can do a report on their field trip.

Good video. I've never watched this show, I'll definitely check out some more.
