    685 Harvard women attack Steve Bannon and show their idiocy

    See: 685 Harvard Business School women 'disavow' fellow grad Steve Bannon

    November 18, 2016

    ”Bannon, who President-elect Donald Trump has tapped as his chief strategist and senior counselor, is the former executive chairman of Brietbart News and a Harvard Business School graduate.

    Now 685 women and counting, all alumnae and current HBS students, have signed an anti-Bannon letter organized by 2015 graduate Lauren Rourke, 29.

    "While we do not always agree on politics, we can agree on this: We unequivocally disavow the appointment of our fellow Harvard Business School alumnus, Steve Bannon, as chief strategist and senior counselor to President-elect Trump," the letter reads.

    Bannon presided over Brietbart before taking leave to join the Trump campaign as its CEO in August.

    Among headlines published on the site, "Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy" and "Would you rather your child had feminism or cancer?"

    In the letter, the women write that Bannon has been "described as one of the chief architects of the alt-right movement, a movement that preaches white nationalism, racism, misogyny and hatred."


    So, these 685 Harvard graduate women who cite "Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy", which appeared in Brietbart’s publication, is pointed to as evidence to attack Steve Bannon? As we shall see, from a Washington Post article, the absurdity of this charge is a reflection of the low quality of graduates coming out of Harvard.

    Keep in mind the Washington Post is surely not a “right wing” or “conservative” media source which published the following article:Is Steve Bannon really as bad as all that?

    Part of the article mentions the Brietbart story which the Harvard graduates complained of in their letter, "Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy". But the Washington Post article also points out how people can be easily mislead and arrive at absurd conclusions because they never actually read the story beneath the headline. What I am referring to in the Washington Post article is this:

    “Bannon, who is Catholic, is ardent about religious liberty, as Trump has promised to be. But Trump has also promised to clamp down on the media, which would have to include Breitbart, which invites the worst sorts of expression. One recent headline that has women ripping their hair out: “Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy.” They should probably have read the story, which was a cheeky dissertation by British journalist Milo Yiannopoulos, a self-proclaimed “dangerous ******” who, among other things, is never to be taken seriously.”

    As one can see, the Harvard graduates who pointed to the above mentioned headline ought to have read the article before using it to attack Steve Bannon.

    But getting back to the letter which these graduate women wrote to attack Steve Bannon, they also make mention of another article published by Breitbart, Would You Rather Your Child Had Feminism or Cancer?

    As it turns out this is also the work of Milo Yiannopoulos. It was used as pointed out at Breitbart: ”To promote an upcoming debate between “radical feminist” Julie Bindel and “radical anti-feminist” Milo Yiannopoulos at the University of Michigan, members of The Michigan Review asked students whether they would rather their child had feminism or cancer.”


    Publishing the article simply shows the lunacy taking place on our college campuses. As for the 685 Harvard graduate women attacking Steve Bannon for the above mentioned articles, it confirms they are void of intellectual thought and reasoning, or maybe they never read beyond the headlines.

    The unavoidable truth is, the Democrats plan for “free” college tuition will be paid for by taxing millions of college graduates who worked their own way through college and are now trying to finance their own economic needs.

    You know, the lunacy coming out of our Ivy League college and universities that so many of US once admired has greatly reduced and damaged their reputation. I don't understand why more of the Harvard alumnae don't raise this issue since it's really turned most Americans off to the point where if you say with glee "They graduated from Harvard!!", or "He or she is a Yale graduate!!" we all go "oh, ugh."

    It used to be considered an accomplishment and meant something to go to Harvard, Yale or Princeton .... and now it means you're either a Globalist or an Idiot.

    It's a real shame what bad politics can do to an institution of higher learning.

    I'm betting some of these "college graduates" couldn't pass the New York State Regents exam of the 1950s.

    The red diaper babies of the leftist elites that can afford to attend these universities show their colors.
