The University of Virginia’s student-led guide service was a fixture on campus, giving historical and admissions tours for half a century until it got suspended for daring to expose the loathsome history of this disgraceful slave-holding institution. The University Guide Service (UGS) has now returned as an independent, unsanctioned advocacy operation.

“Learning to loathe the founder of the oppressive university you attend is a critical rite of passage for budding student activists,” explained UGS president Sui Odium. “It’s the first step toward hating everything from your country to your own body to Western Civilization itself. Until you shed your false consciousness you can never be free.”

Disgruntled alumni upset by reports of UGS depredations have been advised to seek psychological intervention to help rid them of the systemic racism that underlies all southern values.

UGS has worked hard to collaborate with organizations like the History of Enslaved African American Laborers (HEAAL), the UVA LGBTQ Center, and the BIPOC Alumni-Student Mentoring Program to better center the struggle of oppressed identities in their historical presentations.

“Learning to carry the shame of long dead white men whose statues we are determined to tear down is more important than studying any positive contributions they allegedly made to society,” concluded Ms. Odium. “Our job is more important than ever now that Hitler has taken over the country.”

    Jim, thanks for posting. The Babbling Beaver is outstanding.

    The best way to dethrone the hubris of the Radical Left is to poke at them with humor. Since they cannot laugh at themselves, laughing at them sends them into orbit. Love this!

    All aboard the Deportation Love Boat. Take your pick from a diverse list of one-way destinations. When the ramp of your Love Boat LCU (LBL) drops upon foreign soil, you shall be free. Wear hip waders – that ramp rarely makes it to dry soil.

    FBI Confirms Terrorist Attack By Stating 'This Is Not A Terrorist Attack'

    NEW ORLEANS, LA — The FBI announced today that the horrific scene in New Orleans was not a terrorist attack, thereby confirming to the nation that it was, in fact, a terrorist attack.

    I've long wondered where the term odious originated. Perhaps Ms Odium comes from a family tree of like minded predecessors. If so it's a mystery how they found others willing to propagate with them.

    The questions are how long it will take these kids to grow up, and will UVa help that process or impede it.

    I confess it took me two reads to understand this was satire. (It is, right?) Sad, sad state that I considered it could be real.

    It is testimony to the absence of absolute authoritarianism in the nation's non-religious, non-ideological academies that student run groups are permitted to exist including those that satirically allege samizdat or skewer trustees, administration, faculty, and one another. Rah, rah, sis boom bah!!!

    So today at the White House Biden awards George Soros a Medal of Freedom. Soros you will recall worked as a teenager with Hitler in Hungary to send his fellow Jews to the gas chambers.

    So was Biden standing in for Hitler in honoring Soros for his "good" work back then? Perhaps he will hire UGS to run the White House tour service before he thank God in a few days is run out of the White House.

    I just wonder how it feels for people who voted for Biden to think that they are thereby complicit in honoring in the White House of all places a guy who worked to facilitate sending Jews to the gas chamber for Hitler?
