Appalachian State Gets Their Kicks Shaming White Christian Students

The folks at Appalachian State University can’t get enough of shaming people.

Their big thing last month was making sure white students knew they were a bunch of racists. They put up a bulletin board in a freshman dorm telling the how “privileged” they are. Especially if they’re straight and male, etcetera.

But that wasn’t enough, really. CampusReform is reporting now that the same school has decided shaming Christians is a great idea too.

In a different dorm, they’re placed another bulletin board telling Christians how “privileged” they are.

Shortly after the sign went up, someone scrawled “bleep This,” on the board.

 


It was quickly replaced and included a sign admonishing students to “read the entirety of the board’s content before creating any negative views.” Presumably, then they can scrawl “bleep This” on it?

From CampusReform:


Brantley McDonald, a freshman computer science major at App State, emailed the University Housing administrators about the board but has yet to receive a reply.

“Residence areas should be a safe and comfortable area for everyone,” McDonald told Campus Reform.

“You don’t have to preach tolerance by singling out one major religion,” he said. “Also, if they are concerned with systematic issues, they should have that discussion with their elected officials and not the students in the residences they manage.”

McDonald said that when he inquired about the board in person to several RAs, one told him that the board “was trying to convey to us [Christians] that there are other religions that don’t get the same systematic privilege we do in regards to breaks, etc.”
