"Here are some current 'microaggressions' listed by the University of California document, Microaggressions and the Messages They Send.
These statements are considered out of bounds, racist, sexist. They
shouldn't be uttered. Yes, these are real: 'Where are you from?'
'Where were you born?' 'You speak English very well.' 'Wow! How did
you become so good at math?' 'There is only one race, the human race.'
'America is a melting pot.' 'I don't believe in race.' 'I believe the
most qualified person should get the job.' Again, students, staff, and
professors should not utter these and other such statements. In that
case, why not graduate to blanket-surveillance, to monitor every word
spoken on campus? Teams of student groups could watch and listen and
make rulings and deliver punishments." (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)
In
the fall of 2039, an incoming freshmanwomanLBGTQ entered the dining
hall at the University of California Berkeley Safe Space Consortium,
stepped into the lunch line, and asked a server, "Am I permitted to have
a glass of water?"
As soon as the student uttered the word
"water," the server staggered, as if hit by a bullet, and fell to the
concrete floor, striking her elbow. She lay there for several minutes,
gasping, mumbling, and yelling.
Three ambulances arrived, and
she was transported to the local Trauma Ward of the SF Social Justice
Hospital for Victims of Micro-PTSD.
She was treated for a
two-inch bruise and subsequently kept on-site, for three weeks, to
undergo counseling and brain repatterning.
The student who had
spoken the word "water" was tried before a college court and found
guilty of "triggering a catastrophic moment," in light of the 30-year
water shortage in California. He/she was expelled from college and
ordered to perform three months of kitchen labor at a local home for
"the readjustment of IQ among students of excessive privilege."
Thereafter,
in a joint conference of 600,000 students, professors, staff, and chief
administrators of the entire U of California system, held on the
premises of the Bohemian Grove Woof-Woof Ritual Center, a vote was cast
in favor of making the U of California a "silent teaching space."
From
that moment on, no words would be spoken or written at the U of
California, because "any word at any time could provoke a severe adverse
event among the vulnerable..."
Committees were assigned to sort out how University courses would be taught.
In
an historic midnight compromise, it was determined that "information
itself contains an inherently racist and sexist bias, which cannot be
corrected, given the current level of technology."
Therefore, "teaching is an offense to all students."
Four years of silent contemplation and meditation on the inequities of society would stand in as the replacement.
Students who survived this rigor of silence would be awarded a degree with honors.
In
the ensuing decade, 469 students broke the Rule of Omerta, and were
taken to Alcatraz and locked in ancient cells. They were periodically
waterboarded, to stress the seriousness of their crimes. The punishment
was called The Immersion Technique for the Reversal of Speech, under US
Federal Mandate 14389-C/F.
We are all familiar with the NY Times bestseller,
My Four Years of Enlightenment,
written by Debra John Joseph Margaret Ames Ali Schwartz Washington
Hernandez Chan. A key passage has been cited in the US Department of
Homeland manual,
Avoiding Prosecution after a Surveillance Finding:
"Eventually,
at Alacatraz, I forgot where I had grown up, who my parents were, and
what ambitions I had for the future. All thought was reduced down to a
small dot in my mind, an entirely neutral dot that carried no bias or
prejudice. It was there. It was a good and proper thing. It could
offend no one. It could trigger nothing. When I knew this, I was
free. I could shrug off my chains and take my place among friends and
comrades."The author is now a monk at the U Cal Adjunct
Center of Cosmic Reduction. Recognition of the Great Dot is the goal of
every student candidate.
