Pronged and unpronged could be replaced with pronging and pronged respectively, since the unpronged dongle is pronged by the dongle with the prong which is pronging it.
Dude, seriously, you can't just announce in video that evergreen is 'de-gendering' cable connectors without a warning. My nose is burning with coffee now. Thanks a lot. :D
Instead of designating LGBTQ......, they could just say "no one has the right to harm or violate others' natural sovereignty" since that includes everybody equally treated. But that obviously isn't the goal.
Soon enough they can just rename LGBTQ.... to EBW: everyone but whites But seriously, I think this is mostly bitter SJWs rather than actual sensible gay people (at least not many of the gays that I know). Who will win the oppression olympics?
After LGB, the entire rest of the list are just bandwagoning to try and equate themselves to the accepted sexual preferences by the masses. Everything after that is either a mental disorder, or made up completely to try and gain support. They added them to LGB so that they can use gays as the fallback when someone disregards say Tansgenders. Then they claim that you are a homophobe (well they do say transphobe now I guess), even though it has nothing to do with homosexuality at all. If they were REALLY interested in spreading awareness, or gain support about their abnormal sexual preferences they would have created their own movements rather than simply using another one to hide themselves from criticism. I would guess that about 95% of people weren't even aware that the "T" in LGBT meant transgender. You would be even more hard pressed to find anyone that knows wtf the "Q" means. The more abnormal the sexual identity is, the more important it is for them to be in the same basket as homosexuals to avoid debate and discussion. If I were gay I'd be pissed off that they are bandwagoning onto their movement and hurting it in the process.
"I don't ideologically align with anybody" If I could subscribe to you a thousand times, what you said above is why ^_º

Brett should have insisted on having a clause in the agreement in the contract with Evergreen that his name not be used in their propaganda - he has become Animal Farms' Snowball, 1984's Goldstein.
Zoltan put another picture up of Bret with a caption of something like 'Bret looking concerned that he isnt the ceneter of attention anymore'. I commented 'funny part being that YOU are now making him the 'center of YOUR attention'. *FIVE* pictures later i liked a comment (yours by the way) the VERY next comment i tried to 'like' it wouldnt let me. Was making me crazy not understanding why, i gave up and went to the next picture and BAM 'blocked by Zoltan'. lol Guess he didnt like being called out on his doing of the very thing he accuses others of. And this guy is an 'educator'??? Oh man ffs
If he disagrees with Bret...ok. But if he thinks Bret just wanted attention, Zoltan's head is so far up his ass he'll be sneezing shit for decades. I actually feel sorry for folks like Z. good to have empathy, but stay rational.
Your stick to it is top notch Benjamin. I knew you were a good dude first time I saw one of your videos. Thanks for this video and ALL the follow ups! :)
I found a definition of Deficit Thinking; it seems to be the academic version of “the bigotry of low expectations”, a pinning of ultimate responsibility for “outcomes” on systems and extra-personal factors: “Deficit thinking is a catch-all term for various theories that conjecture that lack of student achievement in urban schools is the fault of the students' races, cultures and/or socioeconomic status. The proponents of these theories offer many justifications for their views, but they share one commonality: they place blame for underachievement on the oppressed, rather than on the societal structures and institutions that do the oppressing. Deficit thinking therefore contributes to processes of social reproduction by creating self-fulfilling prophecies about the academic capabilities of students.” tepedtheory.wikispaces.com/Deficit+Thinking
Yes, other things about this whole thing are more disturbing. But, the one thing that this movement is attempting to do is destroy the language itself along with the other social structures. "Deficit thinking" is horrendously grammatically incorrect, the proper word would be DEFICIENT thinking. The fact that "deficit thinking" is an accepted theory as opposed to someone throwing an English 101 text book and a dictionary at the schmuck who coined it is fairly disturbing. Keep up the good work!
How do they not realize they are guilty of a false dichotomy there? Are they so busy making up new jargon that they can't be bothered to understand the existing set of terms and concepts? We all know people who blame their failures on everything but themselves and have no ability to personally reflect or own mistakes. This trait does not indicate for success on an individual level and I can't see how it's any better for a group.
Wow, that really encapsulates the thinking of SJW's/leftists into one concise package: the system is responsible for individuals failing, not the individuals themselves. A total abdication of personal responsibility.
"Hello people. . . and other things." Why hello there, from an Other Thing ;) Seriously though, thanks for continuing to document this; they're obviously still married to their collectivist/exclusionary nigh-religion. Apparently the dip in enrollment has failed to register, just as the students' perception of linear time is weirdly inaccurate. Re the ever-expanding LGBTQIIA+ demographic (because I certainly don't feel like I'm part of any "community") -- a gay friend of mine said we should simply call it the Alphabet Soup demographic, that way everyone gets a letter. Pretty creepy how the students can't see why sanctioning a professor's freedom of speech is -- literally -- an attack on free speech. I can't see how they can't see that! Priceless quote: "We didn't really learn anything."
Kate here. Is there a way you can somehow use your degrees, incisive logic and considerable oratorical skills to infiltrate the constitutional law community? You are needed there. Great closing arguments! Over.
Parenting often is the deciding factor in weather a child is successful or not. It's a topic good parents don't like to bring up, to avoid conflict with idiots, but someone needs to say it.
There is a trend rising where disgruntled youth diagnose their parents with narcissism or sociopathy. From here they commiserate about perceived or genuine poor parenting they recieved.
"This is getting too long" Dude, we are more than happy to listen for as long as you have things to say, unless you have a personal time limit which is understandable.
I know this is all old stuff but I'm really appreciating the far greater understanding of these events that you're providing me. I've been watching tons of your videos. Thank you
It is a shame what happened to Evergreen but I don't think it can ever come back without a complete change in the administration, management and all the teaching staff. They all went over the cliff and they can't get enough students with parents who will pay for an education that will guarantee a career on the unemployment line.
Equal outcomes = nonsense. Were grades, class rank eliminated? Meritocracy, if only aspirational, now evil? My introductory lecture in law school pointed out that 1/2 of us would end up in the bottom 1/2 of class, as did I. Simply fact. We are not all equal, regardless of whether grades constitute worthy measures. Watching your videos, one thing is beyond clear. Many student speakers, one in particular, needed to remain in junior high until able to understand and communicate in English. She needed grades that accurately reflected her lacking ability, progress. Not everyone belongs in college any more than everyone is entitled to or capable of equal outcomes. Do deficits of academic potential or achievement no longer count in academia?
Actually the Northwest desperately needs higher education for at-risk, troubled kids (such as most at Evergreen appear to be). It seems that, until recently, the model for education used by the school was evidence-based and highly successful at preparing students to enter the workforce with equal opportunity potential. Bear in mind that a high percentage of these kids don’t have the ability to learn in standard college models. Without Evergreen (in original programming mode) hundreds of thousands of highly talented, “gifted” youth would have had ZERO college preparation for really successful careers. So the broad American economy and culture needs this exceptional school. Hey, we could use a fucking trainload of graduates like Ben! No RE development can replace this school at its best.
Evergreen is a major economic asset to the Olympia area. Plus it is also the only university besides the private St. Martin's University which is also a Liberal Arts style University. Both Evergreen and St. Martin's colleges are very reputable schools but Evergreen is more affordable than St. Martin's which is one factor why so many people choose Evergreen. Evergreen is also a better option than the traditional Universities for those who want to attend college and be close to home. Evergreen is not a place for dumb privileged kids like some of the people in this comment section think. It's actually like other universities and colleges but with a non traditional twist--hence the term 'Liberal Arts' (not Liberal as in the political definition).
This is one of Benji's best uploads. Great insight. Humorous, but completely open and just discussion of the issues with evidence. The insane stupidity of the SJW theories and activities are so pathetic, the only thing that is impressive about them, is that the SJW exponents don't realise what nonsense they are espousing.
Equity is a darkness I can not tolerate. It rewards nothing, It is not equality with a meritocratic based system which is an absolute fundamental pillar of western values, culture, society...etc. Equity is suicidal and these hellbent on tearing down everything about the way of life which we have in the west, Centuries of improving every aspect of almost everything in life and for everyone...To think people are out to actively smash that into pieces are a cancerous to me personally. They are not a solution to as the problem is the diseased state of their mind's, Not a system which we have equality and putting in the work will reward an individual. These cultural Marxist, post-modernist useful idiots and I do not believe the whole of the collective really understands what they are doing, I know a small number them do know exactly what they are doing and they are the dangerous real pieces of work. I don't know how you can stand the insanity Benjamin, However, the insight which you are able to bring from such a unique position has been and will be very valuable and also much appreciated man, All the best and take care
Lmao that edit makes me wonder exactly how long you sat there pushing the "pronged" cable into the "unprong....wtf am I doing, the male jack into the female jack. Jaysus. Great video Benjamin, subscribing to your channel was the best move I've made on RUclips in years ;)
Being an unpronged person, I must say, if we went to boobed & unboobed, I would be somewhat confused. You see, there are unpronged people that aren't particularly well boobed. You might even say I suffer from micro boobedness. lol These kids are stumbling over themselves trying to come up with alternative ways of saying things & making up new words. Honestly, it's like a comedy routine.
Ohhh, I hope you get your own show somewhere lucrative and fun. You're SO funny. Digging the passion and clarity and the call for someone to come and join you in the dialectic. That's a sexy and heroic thing to do, pulling for people to come put their shoulders into that quest.
Isn't that exactly what he is doing? Many Professors, and educators, are now leaving the safety/oppression of the University to embark upon entrepreneurial enterprises such their own YT Channels, Websites, etc. They have come to realize that they have more autonomy and reach a far greater number of minds through these mediums. Brett Veinotte of School Sucks Project and Thaddeus Russell of Renegade University discuss this at length on Brett's podcast Schools Sucks Podcast.
My brother is a college professor, and he always said he could make more in the private sector, but he loves teaching. But lately he's been talking of giving up his tenured position; the PC bullshit made his job no longer fun.
Thank you for having the courage to make these videos. More people will see how a college went up in fames in the 2010s and showed the downfall of education in our era.
Glad I stuck around long enough to see the kitty playing with the pen so at least I got something out of watching this... KIDDING! Love your videos. I think what you're doing is important, and I hope it isn't wearing on you too much.
I completely agree with you, Ben! About everything. There can't be change and coming together with separation like this based on the color of people's skin. It really makes no sense to me either.
When logic leaves the realm of public discourse we have lost the hope of resolving real issues. Emphasis on 'real' since many, if not most of these issues are invented and can be proven to be inventions.
These days, there are people who use “equity” like scams, this is why good people hesitate to help anyone these days anywhere, education equity are already available widely online, what “equity” are they talking about.... “success for all” is impossible while everyone’s abilities were different. That’s why I personally feel like those “social justice” terms are misused in crazy ways... Education environment these days have been super scary.
Benjamin, where did you find the video footage of the students "protesting" at the police chief's swearing in ceremony? When I was working on my timeline of event a few months ago I couldn't find it anywhere.
+Gerry Barone A contact showed me on their phone. I’m hoping I’ll get it shortly. I was working the event and had I known what was to come I surely woulda recorded it myself.
21:00 "We find impressionable youth, push them through indoctrination programs, and if they show signs of resistance or rejection we do away with them."
all the STEM students should come to Dallas and go to school at SMU. They don't allow this kind of shit, and none of the humanities students are even interested in any of this
Why do the pamphlet writers not list the following groups in their list of minorities: Asian Americans, Indian Americans, Jewish Americans, Pakistani Americans, Ghanaian Americans, Catholic Americans, Amish and Mennonite Americans, Nigerian Americans, etc.? Each group constitutes a small minority of Americans and have and continue to experience oppression, bigotry and discrimination.
To me, equitable requires a preexisting agreement and its observance. In terms of the school, it references the payment of fees for an education. If the school is teaching a curriculum that does not result in integration into the current society, then it is not providing an education. By that definition, teaching any sort of activism is not an education. In that regard, it is necessary for the school to advise what the curriculum comprises so it cannot be faulted for not providing an education in exchange for fees. It's a let the buyer beware defense. If I explained exactly what was being sold, it is not my fault if the buyer has an expectation of the item and it would not be equitable to require me to compensate them for their expectation. To me, making that clear at the beginning of the school term is to be transparent. It's still up to people whether they'd enter into an agreement for that item. I remember thinking if the school promised a safe space (i.e. no challenges) for learning, how they'd accomplish that, given that challenge is part of what drives learning. I think this addresses the doubt I had. It's pretty clear that students are paying for an experience, the nature of which the school is making no claim to be an educational experience. I expect the advertising would focus on how there's great teachers and how student learned at the school and avoid explicit statements that the teachers teach students or may be expected to. Sort of like how one might work in an industry and learn a lot but there's no "teachers" one pays fees to. It's definitely experimental and the first question I'd ask is why then would any student pay fees? Did anyone ask that question?
The invitation to the "Inclusion Rally" was selectively distributed. You've got to love these morons, at least for all of the irony and (unintentional) humor they provide for us.
deficit thinking? Are they referring to the hiring freeze caused by the 2 million dollars deficit and how it could negatively affect the hiring of members from vulnerable groups.
Steven Pinker's notion of the "Left Pole" (an idea worth Google searching) explains why they consider anyone--indeed, everyone--to the left of them "right-wing."
More good work. Don't let these douches get you down. You are fighting the good fight and obviously have a brilliant future, especially if you can get off the west coast.
From every video I have seen the 'students' were the one's doing the undermining of anyone who did not espouse their views aided and abetted by certain members of the faculty of ESC. 'students' themselves were actively trying to block free speech of staff and others there to learn. This is one of the few places were I would consider open carry.
@6:00 you sort of dismiss the commitment of social justice to reconfiguring language, as if this was an ineffective use of resources. But it's actually incredibly effective in terms of changing or controlling thought patterns. Giving certain words a bad connotation effectively neuters the ability to discuss the concepts around them, for better or worse (e.g. our discussion of an attack will vary markedly depending on whether we call it a "terrorist action" or not). I know Orwell is overplayed by he wrote very cogently on precision of language and its effect on political thought.
Obvs I am not defending their use of this tactic, but I am trying to defend the tactic itself. Rewriting language is just an incredibly powerful tool to shape discussion, and worth respecting
In my opinion, the desire to achieve equality of outcome, desired by ideologues of this stripe, can only be achieved by ensuring that all people are equally under the boot of the state. As has been demonstrated throughout history, every single time a Marxist state has been attempted death, starvation and untold human misery are the direct result.
Pronged and unpronged could be replaced with pronging and pronged respectively, since the unpronged dongle is pronged by the dongle with the prong which is pronging it.
Eh? :-)
No sorry no
It's been a while since my prong has been privileged.
Household Dog Same with my slot. :D
It's been a few days since my last lol at a comment...so thank you!
good one!! 😂
You may have micro-aggressively ignored my prong-hole. I forgive thee. Namaste.
i actually laughed out loud .. good job
Dude, seriously, you can't just announce in video that evergreen is 'de-gendering' cable connectors without a warning. My nose is burning with coffee now. Thanks a lot. :D
Instead of designating LGBTQ......, they could just say "no one has the right to harm or violate others' natural sovereignty" since that includes everybody equally treated. But that obviously isn't the goal.
Soon enough they can just rename LGBTQ.... to EBW: everyone but whites
But seriously, I think this is mostly bitter SJWs rather than actual sensible gay people (at least not many of the gays that I know). Who will win the oppression olympics?
energ8t, EBW. That's a good one. I've got to remember that.
EBHW...Everyone, but Hetero Whites. Of course they are hating white gay men now too aren't they?
That would not make anyone feel special.
After LGB, the entire rest of the list are just bandwagoning to try and equate themselves to the accepted sexual preferences by the masses. Everything after that is either a mental disorder, or made up completely to try and gain support. They added them to LGB so that they can use gays as the fallback when someone disregards say Tansgenders. Then they claim that you are a homophobe (well they do say transphobe now I guess), even though it has nothing to do with homosexuality at all.
If they were REALLY interested in spreading awareness, or gain support about their abnormal sexual preferences they would have created their own movements rather than simply using another one to hide themselves from criticism. I would guess that about 95% of people weren't even aware that the "T" in LGBT meant transgender. You would be even more hard pressed to find anyone that knows wtf the "Q" means. The more abnormal the sexual identity is, the more important it is for them to be in the same basket as homosexuals to avoid debate and discussion. If I were gay I'd be pissed off that they are bandwagoning onto their movement and hurting it in the process.
I am unboobed but only when I diet. When I drink too much beer and eat junk food I can become boobed. I am boob fluid!
That was no uprising. It was a temper tantrum.

Good vibes to you, dude. You're doing a great job.

Hey... I didn't get an invite to the inclusion rally. Guess they were excluding me.
Exclusive Inclusion.

Not sure I get this. Blaming socioeconomical status doesn't mean blaming the person (ahem sorry, I mean the oppressed).

What initiated the backlash was the video showing the complete lunacy that took place that was posted on the internet by the students.

You could call them "pronged" and "boobed"; but that makes it even more sexual than just "plug" and "jack".
What about man titties
Holy shit, Evergreen, what a cult! Thanks for not drinking the Kool-Aid !!

This video is gold......

Btw, I’m glad you’re out there doing what you do
It's amazing how ESC has spun and distorted things. It shows no self-responsibility and no self-awareness on the part of the college.

These people are running around campus, screaming in peoples faces and threatening everybody. . . how are they "vulnerable"?
Benjamin, where did you find the video footage of the students "protesting" at the police chief's swearing in ceremony? When I was working on my timeline of event a few months ago I couldn't find it anywhere.
+Gerry Barone A contact showed me on their phone. I’m hoping I’ll get it shortly. I was working the event and had I known what was to come I surely woulda recorded it myself.
Gerry, I place the video you're asking about here: ruclips.net/video/ztDc_xqmqHM/видео.htmlm16s
Thank you!
Good work and good luck.
Thanks, Spencer
Is the square ironically or unironically named "Red Square" after the famous square in Moscow?
Western Washington University's also has a Red Square.
Its litteraly a square.... Paved with red bricks... I don't get why this is important?
When are whytes going to learn that we are not allowed to criticize any PoC in any way, shape or form. To do so is racist.

LMAO.......Mr. WHYTE you made my week. Thank you.
21:00 "We find impressionable youth, push them through indoctrination programs, and if they show signs of resistance or rejection we do away with them."
What about plug and socket?
all the STEM students should come to Dallas and go to school at SMU. They don't allow this kind of shit, and none of the humanities students are even interested in any of this
Why do the pamphlet writers not list the following groups in their list of minorities: Asian Americans, Indian Americans, Jewish Americans, Pakistani Americans, Ghanaian Americans, Catholic Americans, Amish and Mennonite Americans, Nigerian Americans, etc.? Each group constitutes a small minority of Americans and have and continue to experience oppression, bigotry and discrimination.
Student DEMANDS?? Who the fuck is running Evergreen??
To me, equitable requires a preexisting agreement and its observance. In terms of the school, it references the payment of fees for an education. If the school is teaching a curriculum that does not result in integration into the current society, then it is not providing an education. By that definition, teaching any sort of activism is not an education.
In that regard, it is necessary for the school to advise what the curriculum comprises so it cannot be faulted for not providing an education in exchange for fees. It's a let the buyer beware defense. If I explained exactly what was being sold, it is not my fault if the buyer has an expectation of the item and it would not be equitable to require me to compensate them for their expectation.
To me, making that clear at the beginning of the school term is to be transparent. It's still up to people whether they'd enter into an agreement for that item. I remember thinking if the school promised a safe space (i.e. no challenges) for learning, how they'd accomplish that, given that challenge is part of what drives learning.
I think this addresses the doubt I had. It's pretty clear that students are paying for an experience, the nature of which the school is making no claim to be an educational experience. I expect the advertising would focus on how there's great teachers and how student learned at the school and avoid explicit statements that the teachers teach students or may be expected to.
Sort of like how one might work in an industry and learn a lot but there's no "teachers" one pays fees to. It's definitely experimental and the first question I'd ask is why then would any student pay fees? Did anyone ask that question?
The invitation to the "Inclusion Rally" was selectively distributed. You've got to love these morons, at least for all of the irony and (unintentional) humor they provide for us.
i'm liking you more and more, thank you for your efforts.
Keep up your excellent and intelligent and humorous videos.
Equality of opportunity not outcome is key. Equality of of outcome requires inequality.
deficit thinking? Are they referring to the hiring freeze caused by the 2 million dollars deficit and how it could negatively affect the hiring of members from vulnerable groups.
The gender spectrum that is growing in letters. I just call them the special sex club
Hubby just calls them Kinky. A throw back term from the 80's. xD
The Fire Rises..... Where's Bane when we need him!?
"Peacefully and loudly" is a contradiction in terms.
“Tranquilly and excitedly”.
Steven Pinker's notion of the "Left Pole" (an idea worth Google searching) explains why they consider anyone--indeed, everyone--to the left of them "right-wing."
Does any one who graduates from Evergreen think any degree or accreditation will be taken seriously by any employer with half a brain for a job?
Damn those patriarchal clocks.
Time to not hire anybody who went to school at evergreen!
I'm pretty certain that nobody from Evergreen will ever become a certified electrician. So the opportunity to reference the dongle will be limited.
What will man-boobs be classified as?
They'll be classified as "Chest Oppression."
More good work. Don't let these douches get you down. You are fighting the good fight and obviously have a brilliant future, especially if you can get off the west coast.
From every video I have seen the 'students' were the one's doing the undermining of anyone who did not espouse their views aided and abetted by certain members of the faculty of ESC.
'students' themselves were actively trying to block free speech of staff and others there to learn.
This is one of the few places were I would consider open carry.
Plug and socket is the old fashioned solution
Privilege the prong! Pickle Rick BABY!
@6:00 you sort of dismiss the commitment of social justice to reconfiguring language, as if this was an ineffective use of resources. But it's actually incredibly effective in terms of changing or controlling thought patterns. Giving certain words a bad connotation effectively neuters the ability to discuss the concepts around them, for better or worse (e.g. our discussion of an attack will vary markedly depending on whether we call it a "terrorist action" or not). I know Orwell is overplayed by he wrote very cogently on precision of language and its effect on political thought.
Obvs I am not defending their use of this tactic, but I am trying to defend the tactic itself. Rewriting language is just an incredibly powerful tool to shape discussion, and worth respecting
When in hell were these kids studying? I am afraid I would have flunked them all.
This is like listening to someone who is Christian and church going talking about the WBBC and how fucked up they are. Lmfao
Great video.
Is it proper to characterize the current upheavals at Evergreen as an ongoing black comedy?
Just wondering.
Nice background. Are the tropical flowers a green screen of sorts and the greenery an actual wallpaper on your wall? Hard to tell these days.
This guy should take all of his information and evidence and publish a book.
Could be a cia op. Feed them odd drugs and see what happens. Not kidding.
"boobed" and "boob-disadvantaged?" "boobed" and "boob-deprived?" "boobed and non-boob-oppressed?"
We love you ben
Aren’t ALL transgender first (and last) generation almost by definition?
Unless they adopt.
zxy atiywariii - Adoption does not thwart genetic termination.
Does anyone remember. The starbelly sneaches have bellies with stars. The plain belly sneaches have none upon thars.
In my opinion, the desire to achieve equality of outcome, desired by ideologues of this stripe, can only be achieved by ensuring that all people are equally under the boot of the state. As has been demonstrated throughout history, every single time a Marxist state has been attempted death, starvation and untold human misery are the direct result.
Bullet points!? How dare you!!! Think about poc's feelings!!!!
Huh huh huh, "dongle". Huh huh.
How do you get your camera and computer out to the middle of the forest? :)
Sledcats and copious tarps.
