    Racially segregated student dorms made the news back in 2016:

    Now it's more common:

    As you all know during the civil war the democrats were the party of slavery (republicans were the party of Lincoln and anti-lynching laws, none of this is relevant today, of course), and even as late as in the 50's it was the democrats who fought for segregation:

    In a sense they are still fighting for segregation, but under a different premise, some kind of 360 degree turnaround, "left is the new right" etc.

    Are things falling apart, or are things falling into place? I can't tell.

    • like you said, not relevant today, because conservative cunts are conservative cunts, regardless of what party name they claim that daymonospaced
    • when racists and anti-racists start agreeing. not a cultGnash
    • I do find this move toward neo-segregation to be a step backward, and do wish the schools would attempt to curb it. Feels exclusionary.monospaced
    • this also has nothing to do with BLMmonospaced
    • I don't know, BLM want whites out of their neighbourhoods, sounds like segregation to me._niko
    • it is segregation. lol @ "neo"Gnash
    • BLM doesn't want whites out though, it's not about thatmonospaced
    • didn't think so until that seattle gentrification vid_niko
    • How common is it really though? Article says "Surveying 173 schools, we found that 42 percent offer segregated residences..."yuekit
    • Wow sounds terrible...but if you read between the lines here, they are counting the existing of ANY black fraternity on a campus as evidence that the entireyuekit
    • school is "segregated." Also a little hard to take seriously their concern with integration given that National Review is a publication known for employingyuekit
    • openly racist writers and whose founder wrote columns calling for the continuation of apartheid in South Africa during the 80s.yuekit
    • A vid of some clowns yelling about housing is not the BLM movement. It’s just some people yelling. Derp.monospaced
    • So blm are ‘clowns’ when you don’t agree, but righteous when you do?Gnash

    • Right, but according to the book here are some of the things they count as "neo segregation"...yuekit
    • Black Studies Program, Japanese Culture Club, Native American Community Program, PRIDE Banquet for gay peopleyuekit
    • Not sure what's supposed to be bad about any of that. These just seem like normal interest groups, same as they had when I was in college.yuekit
    • This is obviously not just about interest groups. Don’t be so disingenuousGnash
    • Do you consider a Japanese or Korean culture club an example of segregation? Of course you can find cases where people take it too far, but the fact that stuffyuekit
