People 18-22 years old can't think for themselves and form their own opinions.
Tell me... at what age does someone become impervious to such indoctrination?

You believe 22-year-old grown men and women cannot think for themselves? Let's start there.

Probably mid-20's. Ya gotta hand it to the left ... they decided to play the long game 50 years ago, and it has paid off for them. Their end-game is to turn America into a Marxist country ... stupid goal, but they just might achieve it to the detriment of our kids and grandkids. When the U.S. is broken, China will step in and proclaim "game over!" and they will proceed to eat the leftists who handed our country to them. I'm just sorry that I won't be around to see the final act.

Eighteen to 22 year olds in college can think for themselves and are not susceptible to this made-up indoctrination.
If all college kids are getting indoctrinated by this evil leftist conspiracy, how come we have so many college graduates all over America who are conservative?

Trump isn't a conservative.
Our nation is filled with millions of college-educated conservatives. Looks like these lefties better step up their game.
Did you not see the irony in your post? You're claiming leftist indoctrination... in a post where the professor lost her tenure.
Seems like the big leftist conspiracy wouldn't have ousted her, right?

She was offered a tenured job at UNC and now they have retracted the offer.

Your conspiracy still isn't holding much water. Also, you didn't explain how 22 year olds can't think for themselves.

If all gov't agencies (including the FBI) are leftist...
If all tech companies and platform owners are leftist...
If all of print media and newspapers are leftist...
If all TV is leftist...
If all of academia is leftist...
If all teachers are leftist...
if all scientists are leftist...
If all of Hollywood is leftist...
If the ENTIRE Music industry is leftist...
If all late-night TV is leftist...
If all comedy is leftist...
If all European countries are leftist...
If all liberal arts majors are leftist...
If all folks who hate racism and want to make it better are leftist...
....maybe it's time to redefine "leftism". Or grow some fuckingballs and admit that your ideology is bullfuckingshit.
"If you meet an arsewhole in the morning, you met an arsewhole. If you meet arsewholes all day, you're the arsewhole"
There are people on this very board who live in a red state in a red county in a red city who are still convinced that the "leftists" are out to get them. Here's my message: Leftists don't give a #### about you. We don't care about you because your'e inconsequential.

These people don’t trust their own children, it’s sad really. Last year an acquaintance warned a recent graduate not to get indoctrinated at college. The kid was going to frickin Limestone, a Christian school. Their idiocy knows no bounds.

the frontal cortex isn't fully developed until about 25 years old. That part of the brain is made up mostly by your environment and your experiences in life.
So it would be safe to say that they really are not ready to make life altering decisions until 25.

let’s prevent our ADULT children from experiencing life in the real world so that they can develop their own identity/ideas. If you’ve done your job as a parent your kids already have the critical thinking skills to navigate life. If your fear is that they won’t share your same opinions/worldview then that’s just something you will have to learn to live with. I WANT my kids to come to their own conclusions. If that means we come to disagree on certain things, then that’s ok.

He is right, though. In math, science, yeah. The answer is the answer, which I suspect is why the left-brained types tend to be so relentlessly right-winged, paradoxically.
Switch to the social sciences or English, though, whoo baby. Liberal is putting it mildly, most of that staff are outright Commies, man. You know that's true. And you'd better at least pay lip service to their Causes if you want the benefit of the doubt.

There is a certain amount of truth to that. I learned very early to assess the professor's politics and tell them what they wanted to hear, and that being liberal would get me a better grade.
I also learned early on that listening to theatre-major chicks b!tch and moan about leftist causes made them a lot more likely to sleep with me, so I'd bob and nod and listen to them wank on about deforestation in Brazil or Save the Whales or Racial Injustice or Sexual Inequality or whatever they were on about at the moment, make a few pithy comments to get them all hot and bothered and then let them think they'd won the argument and had a chance of actually converting me to their cause. It's called "listening", and I guess I always understood instinctively that politics was ever this perpetual balancing act where nobody really got all they wanted and the sides were never as cut-and-dried as people thought.
There's always this struggle between ideals and pragmatism, between progress and safety, between labor and management, between the rich and the poor, between what could be and what's always been, and who's right definitely seems to depend on what side of the line you're on.

No, no, no, no...you can't write all that and then just dump us at the "It's called listening" and leave us hanging.
How does that liberal poontang smell? Any different?

They smelled mostly like Clove cigarettes and occasionally bongwater, actually.
Otherwise, no difference. And I'm trying to figure out how to phrase this...because it's not like I'm any great Casanova or anything - I was downright awkward in high school - but the trick with closing a girl, I figured out, was:
1) be non-threatening...which means, no means no, if it isn't there, it isn't there, no biggie, and it especially means, no misogyny...girls have radar for guys who hate girls, and avoid them like bats avoid buildings...
...and...
2) engage...which means, listen, and be fun...and she'll show you what's what. Let her lead the dance, just provide the opportunity, and she'll get to it.
That's it. That's all. And being a bartender and a bouncer it was amazing how many guys I watched blow it on an hourly basis. It was painful to watch.
Referring to a girl as "poontang", by the way, reveals a great deal of subconscious hatred for women, and upon hearing that word, 95% of them will immediately Exit Stage Left.
FWIW.

A friend's daughter left high-school a very normal and cute girl. Went to UNC. Had at least a few dates with boys her freshman year.
She graduated so proudly this past week a lesbian.
Isn't it great that educational institution provided the environment in which she could find her true self!

Again, I'll stop you there. You can't put that on "UNC".
Actually I'm not much for talking about conquests, but I actually was friends with a girl who I thought was a lesbian. Until we got to drinking one night...you can put together the rest. We sort of woke up the next morning, like: ### was that, I thought you were gay? And she was like: "I was!." (And as far as I know, she still is. She's been with the same girl forever. She just sure as eff wasn't that night.)
Also got to watch the redhead from the B-52's in action one night up in a club I worked at in Charlotte back in the day. I was trying to put the moves on one chick, we'd been talking and sort of flirting around, will-we, won't-we, until Kate Pearson strolled out into the club after their set and started talking to her. Kate was very much gay, and she proceeded to completely stiff-arm me aside and make off with the girl I was trying to put the moves on. I went home sad and lonely that night, while she turned out girl I had until then thought was completely, utterly straight.
Oh, and she @#$^ing stiffed me on the tab too. B!tch. I will be forever butthurt about that one.
People are not...simple, and I've seen girls flip-flop who they date more times than I can count. I stopped trying to figure that crap out way back.

You really should move back to Spartanburg. They have a lot of this ignorance there, but they may need more.
Apparently she's, what, no longer "normal" because she's a lesbian?
You tell your friend to his face that she's not normal? Did your friend feel that way?

I know you are being facetious...but yes, it is great that she may not live the rest of her life trying to be someone she’s not.
Who knows...maybe she’s just experimenting and she’ll end up being the fine stepford wife her family can be proud of...

IDK bud, Clemson was culture shock after growing up in the NE. There sure was a lot of indoctrination going on, it was called EVERYONE dressing exactly the same on a level not seen since 1950's era conformity
indoctrination checklist at Clemson in the 90's
3 pairs of duck head khakis with a braided belt.
Ball cap with fish hook on the brim
Confederate Flag in the back window of pick truck
Hootie and the blowfish playing at all times
Chuch at noon, binge drinking at 1:00 PM
can of skoal in breast pocket
disappoint every girl you come in contact with by acting like a dumb mysogionist.

We had this group we called "the mountain Dew Boys", cause they were literally out of mountain dew commercials of the time. Those little rascals were always up to something extreme, usually involving off-road excursions in their jeep with the top ripped off. I do not think I ever saw one with a shirt on, at any point.
