Universities promote violence

[jvanname]

Universities promote violence. I know. I was a professor. Universities have promoted violence against me. I have a Ph.D. in mathematics.  Until universities apologize for promoting violence, I will always treat all graduates from all universities as violent sociopaths who have absolutely no place in decent society and who need to be locked up. If you have a degree from a university, then I have no choice to consider you as a worthless scumbag who hates life and just wants to harm others!

I have never heard that all universities promotes violence. The university is an institution established to produce individuals that would contribute positively to the development of the society. And they actualize this goals through teaching, research and community development. I assume you were a Professor in one or few universities in your country and it is possible that through observation the university you once taught promoted violence. Maybe the government of your country are mismanaging universities making them to derail from their core functions.

But I can comfortable state that almost all universities in the world promotes peace and peaceful coexistence. And most university graduates are not worthless like you stated because they are contributing greatly to the development of their country multidimensionally .

Actually, I'm not sure where this speech is going. The professor believes that all universities promote violence and label graduates as useless scumbags who seek to harm others. No matter what he went through at university or how he was treated, he does not have the audacity to accuse universities of promoting violence. Generalizing it is very bad, even though we cannot put ourselves in his shoes to understand how he feels.

We all have different perspectives on universities, regardless of where we come from. We are all aware that the majority of institutions all over the world support peaceful cooperation amongst all of us. Despite their shortcomings, I have never heard a university promote violence. Those are terrible remarks to employ by a professor who appears to be one.

[jvanname]

"I have never heard that all universities promotes violence."-Then I certainly need to tell more people that universities promote violence.


"And they actualize this goals through teaching, research and community development."-And guess what? By promoting violence, they are going against all of these goals! Universities are absolutely pathetic!

"I assume you were a Professor in one or few universities in your country and it is possible that through observation the university you once taught promoted violence. Maybe the government of your country are mismanaging universities making them to derail from their core functions."-Then all other countries need to blacklist graduates and dropouts from universities in the USA. And other countries should not accept or hire anyone from an American university.

"But I can comfortable state that almost all universities in the world promotes peace and peaceful coexistence."-You are fucking wrong. Universities have promoted violence against me, so they want people like me to get fucking murdered.

"And most university graduates are not worthless like you stated because they are contributing greatly to the development of their country multidimensionally."-Yes they are. University graduates are worthless because they are from institutions that have promoted violence against me.

"No matter what he went through at university or how he was treated, he does not have the audacity to accuse universities of promoting violence."-I am using my freedom of speech to tell the truth. People hate the truth because they are afraid to admit that they are evil and uneducated.

"Generalizing it is very bad, even though we cannot put ourselves in his shoes to understand how he feels."-The good institutions need to BLACKLIST the bad institutions. Until they do this, THEY ARE ALL BAD!

"Despite their shortcomings, I have never heard a university promote violence. Those are terrible remarks to employ by a professor who appears to be one."-Then I have a lot of work to do. Universities promote violence and Nazism.

That would mean he thinks he himself is a violent sociopath with no place in society that needs to be locked up.

Edit: wait I just noticed your username.  Did you really quote yourself as if you were quoting someone else?  Or are you just impersonating this Math guy.

[jvanname]

I did not quote myself. I was just signing my name, you silly goose.

"That would mean he thinks he himself is a violent sociopath with no place in society that needs to be locked up."-I am the exception because I realize that universities are that way. Anyone else who realizes that universities are very bad may also be an exception.

How about before you realized that Universities are this way?  Were you a violent sociopath then?

[jvanname]

Anyone who eventually realizes that universities promote violence is not a violent sociopath. People start off ignorant, but if they choose to remain ignorant after knowing better, then they are violent sociopaths. Universities promote violence.

So the ignorant people that later stop being ignorant are not violent sociopaths.

But the ignorant people that remain ignorant are violent sociopaths.  Is that what you're saying? 

Do you think there are any psychologists that would agree with your method of diagnosing sociopaths?

Do you really think it's rational to rely on someone's future level of ignorance (something we can not know) rather than their past actions to determine whether they are a violent sociopath or not?

Wouldn't it be easier to just look at whether a person has acted violently in the past to determine if they are a violent person?

[Frankolala]

OP I feel for you,I guess in the university where you work,they have treated you in a violent way. I see the university as an institution that helps the society in providing able,self directed learners that are  bold, confident and self standing people that will go to the society to become true leaders and civil servants.

University is a place where you acquire new knowledge and skills with the aid of making research. Graduates are decent and respected people in the society, when you pass through the university, you will adopt an outstanding life style that will make you think beyond violence. Though,some persons chose to be violence no matter their level of education, therefore, I see that supporting violence depends on the individual

[jvanname]

I am not using the word 'sociopath' in the medical sense since I am not qualified to diagnose people with sociopathy. But the result is the same. If people worship educational institutions that have promoted violence against me and have caused an incredible amount of harm against society, then they are just as evil as those who have medical sociopathy.

"Do you really think it's rational to rely on someone's future level of ignorance (something we can not know) rather than their past actions to determine whether they are a violent sociopath or not?"-What if you don't know someone's past actions? I can ask the same thing.

"Wouldn't it be easier to just look at whether a person has acted violently in the past to determine if they are a violent person?"-I am not going to give people the benefit of the doubt because they are guilty by association. If people have been associated with violent institutions such as universities, then I will consider those people as violent.


Frankolala-I appreciate your support. I do not see any evidence that my experience is not the norm at universities. And I will certainly not give any academic institution the benefit of the doubt until these academic institutions acknowledge how wrong they are. You see universities based on how they ought to be, but since I was a professor, I see universities for what they really are, and I am not impressed.

Just because this person went into some 3rd class university that promoted violence doesn't means all the universities do that, Also just because universities of a specific country to do so doesn't means all countries do so. Also, he himself is a Ph.D. in Mathematics I am sure he must not have got his degree of Ph.D. by sitting at home. Or does he considers himself a worthless scumbag as well? I sometimes feel that the people who go so much in depth of subjects like mathematics and Physics really create a world of their own and anywhere who does not adjusts to that world is a scumbag.

[jvanname]

teosanru-Well, the place I got my Ph.D. from is not as scummy as the places I have taught at. But if the place I have taught at is just some '3rd class university', then other universities should condemn the actions. I refuse to believe that I have been subjected to evil just because I was at the wrong place. It makes more sense to believe that all universities are fucked up (well, at least all universities in the USA), and I have not encountered any evidence that will lead me to believe otherwise. If people in academia hate me for calling out academic institutions, then that only convinces me that those haters are a part of the problem and that they are violent sociopaths as well. If people in academia would instead stand with me in condemning the violence, then that would be different, but people in academia promote violence because they are bloodthirsty.

"I sometimes feel that the people who go so much in depth of subjects like mathematics and Physics really create a world of their own and anywhere who does not adjusts to that world is a scumbag."-Um. People who promote violence against me such as those in academia are scumbags because they are scumbags.

[Alisha-k]

I won't argue about Universities promoting violence everyone have their experience passing through the fall walls of the Tertiary institutes. But that doesn't generalise the fact that everyone who ever attended the university and graduated as violent sociopaths. People chose their path in life. The university has diverse cultures not everyone choses what the feel suits them most. There is still peace movement around campuses.

[jvanname]

Alisha-k-I will give universities the benefit of the doubt as soon as they officially and publicly acknowledge their sins and make an effort to improve. I doubt that this will happen any time soon.

In the US alone there are thousands of universities with 10's of millions of Students currently enrolled.

Have you considered the possibility that your personal experience with however many Universities and students don't reflect every one of the thousands of other Universities or millions of other students?

To me you seem like a smart guy that's experiencing paranoia, which is probably linked to some sort of mental issues.  Not trying to insult you.  Just letting you know what a random guy on the internet thinks about your claims.   Hope I'm wrong and if I'm not, I hope you can find help.

[Majestic-milf]

I took out time to read all the comments here and I got to deduce that if I try to explain why your opinion on universities is a bit disjointed would be a complete waste of time and probably a repetition of words.

 Someone mentioned that some students act violently as a result of treatment from the administration and whatnot and it got me wondering tho.. for one to quickly tag an act as violent would only mean the observer or recepient has some traces of violence or is prone to violence and as such may have warranted a rash behavior from the students.

 I will not entirely paint universities as good and a model citadel for knowledge and uprightness alone, else were will all these fraternities emanate from, right? But then it would be outright unfair to tag all universities as promoters of violence, op.

Do you expect me to give academic institutions the benefit of the doubt after they have promoted violence against me and refuse to acknowledge any wrongdoing? I will do no such thing. The reason you say that I have mental issues is because you are a bloodthirsty monster who has absolutely no place in decent society. You just want me to get fucking murdered and you also want my dead body to be gangraped by people like Jeffrey Dahmer and Elon Musk (who murders monkeys).

If my experience does not reflect the experience of others, then that just means that academic institutions hate me and want to see me suffer. This is really bad. This is evil Nazism.

I have some news for you. You are just like the Nazis who were 'just following orders'. You are sheep. You cannot see when institutions are doing wrong. These academic institutions have already committed a lot of violence against me and you, and you have refused to acknowledge their evil.

If there are universities that do not promote violence, then they need to condemn and publicly blacklist the institutions that do promote violence. But the 'good' institutions will not do this because the 'good' institutions promote violence too.

[BADecker]

I suspect that there is a pecking order among universities and colleges. If they don't fall in line, and don't and teach what the elite of the universities tell them the way they tell them, they will gradually lose their respect among the whole system, and probably their accreditation.

[jvanname]

I do not have too many issues with what is being taught at colleges in my field of discipline. I am a mathematician, and I would like to see mathematics students learn more about computer science though. But then again, liberal arts degrees are completely worthless. I do not know why anyone would ever associate with any liberal arts graduates. Liberal arts graduates are terrible people.
