Michael McGregor: At University College London (UCL) Revolt Against the Modern University (In earlier eras it seemed the one thing you could count on in Western societies was a stage of youthful rebellion against ‘the establishment,’ and yet the hallmark of today’s college students is the wallowing up to their fat pink snouts in the Multicultural Marxist mud that has been slurried to them by their PC comizars since grade school. The Left, absent any real opposition, has been incredibly agile in positioning itself as always courageously battling the “ruling class” long after it has become the ruling class.)


REVOLT AGAINST THE MODERN UNIVERSITY


One student club at the University College London was planning on striking at the root of modernity – before they got struck down for being too awesome.

The Nietzsche Club (also known as Tradition UCL) was created to spread and discuss the ideas of their namesake, as well as the ideas of Martin Heidegger, Julius Evola, Alain de Benoist, and other traditionalist/anti-egalitarian thinkers. They made their name known throughout campus with provocative and well-produced posters that declared “Equality is a false god!” and asked “Too much political correctness?”

Needless to say, this sounds like the greatest student club ever created and looked to provide a breeding ground for radical traditionalist culture and thought for young people in the heart of the UK.

But sadly, there is “too much political correctness” at UCL and the group was quickly bannedafter their posters were plastered all over the college.

And it wasn’t school administrators that banned these young Nietzscheans from spreading the master morality around campus -- it was their fellow classmates who represent the student body in the Union Council.

The Council didn’t just feel it was necessary to deny this group official recognition from the university. They also passed a resolution that would commit the student government to actively “fighting fascism.” . . .
