Thank you very much and God bless you.

Arab and intellectual in the same sentence?

They can’t take away his diploma. He won.

Wonder who’s paying his bills?

Always interesting to find out who’s money a socialist is spending. It is rarely their own.

Wonder if they considered requiring him to pay back tuition to USMA.

He may yet be right. And no doubt he’s as smug and self-righteous as he was back the

He will do well in the revolution. But after the revolution he will cross someone higher up and end up facing a wall in a tiled cellar.

*Wonder if they considered requiring him to pay back tuition to USMA.*

Yeah right.

Dirty, little, insignificant, attention whore.

I can’t figure out why this smartass went to West Point in the first place.

Meets every single point in the definition of “TREASON”.

Why is this guy still breathing US air?

In 2017, Spenser Rapone displayed various Marxist messages, such as wearing a Che Guevara shirt beneath his official West Point uniform and tweeting “#VeteransForKaepernick,” is now a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Texas at Austin (UT) studying “Modern Arab intellectual history.”

I can’t figure out why this smartass went to West Point in the first place.

"My task was to organize defeat, so as to hasten the onset of revolution. I enlisted under the name of Petrov. The party looked to the peasant conscript soldiers - many of whom were wearing their first real pair of boots. When the boots had worn out, they'd be ready to listen. When the time came, I was able to take three whole battalions out of the front lines with me - the best day's work I ever did."

How is this not “giving aid and comfort to the enemy”?

His university biography cites his interests as “decolonization, revolution, metaphysics, [and] consciousness,” with his research topics focusing on “question of the self, soul, and spirit..

A lost soul, in need of repentant salvific faith in the risen Lord Jesus, as does a feminist wordcrafter in wokeducation who he would likely find some kniship with, warring against what God ordained, teaching that:

"...intersections with race, ethnicity, coloniality, class and ability, the sex/gender system of oppression has long served as a taxonomizing apparatus. And yet, the literary, in league with anticolonial, civil rights and LGBTQ social movements,...animates the liberatory potential of imagining embodied relations otherwise... representations of gender and sexuality can leverage critiques against normativity...Taking our transnational cue from subjugated knowledges and intersectional epistemologies, we’ll constellate the diverging genealogies and methodologies...
Against the traffic of binary opposition, we’ll index the possibilities of intimacy and performativity... As a class collective, our aim is to read and reread as well as write and rewrite texts that interrogate and complicate how gender and sexuality, as contested sites of pleasure and pain, are embodied and experienced." This counts toward the methods requirement for the major. Prerequisite: ENGL 103 or 104. Open only to first-year and sophomore students.

Author is Brianna Thompson, who teaches courses in American women’s literature, queer theory and utopias/Afrofuturism at Kenyon college (founded by Episcopal Bishop in 1824). Course is Reading and Writing Gender and Sexuality ENGL 214, https://www.kenyon.edu/academics/departments-and-majors/english/academic-program-requirements/courses-in-english/

Her college was founded in 1824 by Episcopal Bishop Philander Chase, who now has a potential candidate ("Brianna Thompson") for the office of implementation of WOKE policies under the auspices of a Council of Transexuality:

Back in the early 70s I had a college class dealing with the limits of Gov’t power. The professor came in, maybe 5’2” and shaped like the Pillbury doughboy.

He said he felt that he should tell the class that he was a Socialist and that communism would defeat capitalism. He appeared to be eager for outraged response, ready to do battle.

Nobody said anything. The girls were filing their nails, looking bored. Guys were doodling in their notebooks.

I was embarrassed for the little guy. I felt like I should jump up and shout that he was a communist traitor or some such, at least give him a little recognition as a radical.

The class ended up being excellent. He didn’t let his political views influence the content, he was a good teacher. He also had the good sense to give me an A on the final when I argued unlimited Gov’t power would lead to totalitarianism and unlimited corruption.

IIRC: Spenser Rapone enlisted in the Army, joined one of the Ranger battalions, saw at least one combat tour in Afghanistan(?), graduated Ranger school, and THEN applied to USMA before he turned 22. Hard to say when he flipped to the dark side. But I remember that even in those days you could find pictures of cadets giving “black power” salute (or whatever a raised fist is these days) in photos in their parade uniforms.
