    Don’t worry, no one will read it anyway. If they do, they’ll know it’s a lie.

    From what I’ve seen, conservatives are more interested in taking over the academic citadels…

    I know what he means. Some of these FB suggested groups that come up have such lofty names. Checking the previous posts, you see it’s just a conservative shill site.

    Yo, if they mean Austin, Texas it might interest them to know it’s one of the only places in the state that’s actually very liberal. Otherwise it’d be harder to live here.

    Many notables will preside over various departments:

    MTG — astronomy

    Medicine — Joe Rogan

    Law — Sidney Powell and Rudy G., co-chairs

    Philosophy — Alex Jones

    Economics — Larry Kudlow

    Athletic Director — Gym Jordan

    .

    There will be many well known visiting ‘professors’.

    Never heard of it, but if it’s Austin, Texas, then it makes me hope they are running scared. There is a limit to how much you can screw the elections against the demographics. Or maybe I’m just too optimistic?

    For my next joke… Americans used to agree: One man = 1V (One Vote). But now:

    Dems: 1 adult = 1V

    Cons: 1 “man” = 1V

    GOP: 1 corporation = 1 BIG V

    GQP: 1 Martian = -42 V

    Trumplicans: 1 gun = 1V

    A failed coup is STILL an #insurrection!

    University of Austin (UATX) – their web site is .org not .edu. They have no assets, no degree-granting programs, no campus, no courses, no research programs and is not accredited. But they do ask for donations. Trump University 2.0?

    They’ve sucked in $250M already. And with the well-known / notorious founders they have, they’ll surely get more.

    Any irony in the fact it is billed as a “liberal arts university”? Apparently there is a shortage in conservative arts… Although both Hitler and Stalin were considered to have conservative tastes in the visual arts. (Stalin was a lot more open in terms of music and dance.)

    Does the person depicted in the framed art change from panel 3 to panel 5? And the diploma/certificate on the wall in panel 4 to Panel 8? And what’s the deal with all the books/book cases? I demand the truth! FAKE comics! Oops, where am I? What were we talking about? Sorry…

    panel six could use a few commas. I’m thinking @ 3 spots??

    agree with panel 8 … gotta have the dog whistles, to make it work.

    Of course they’ll have a football team – it’s Texas, but they’ll probably perform on pare with the Liberty U. “Fainting Goats”…

    The difference being that at a conservative school they will actually adhere to the mission statement.

    Diverse opinion and speech is welcome, and is not punished.

    Unfortunately, there needs to be three times as many players on the team, as they get injured VERY easily and then break out into hysterics.

    Still chortling about “intellectual humility”…. which I guess means being humble enough to accept that your knowledge of the world being round may not be actually true. What’s Latin for “It Could Be Flat”? That should be this school’s motto.
