Loon UC Berkeley Paper Receives Avalanche of Negative Responses to 'White Devil' Columnist Maggie Lam

controversial-maggie-lam-column/

Last week, we brought you the touching story of Maggie Lam, a University
of California-Berkeley student who landed a column at the school’s
newspaper, The Daily Californian, in which she was invited to discuss race
issues — but has instead spent her time ranting against the “white devil”
and calling white men “f–kboys.”

Since her latest column appeared last Thursday, the Daily Californian
claims to have received more than 600 responses. Some were supportive, but
most were critical, focusing, according to a Letter to the Editor, on Ms.
Lam’s narrative about having sexual contact with a white classmate against
his will, ostensibly to teach him a lesson about his white, male privilege
and associated prejudices.

The Californian posted two critiques of the column and the subsequent
discussion, and one in favor of Ms. Lam’s actions — defending her use of
sex as a weapon against her “oppressor,” because it posed a challenge to a
set of stereotypes held by “white America.”

According to the letter writer defending the columnist, Ms. Lam’s column
perfectly illustrates an effective response to what he or she terms
“yellow fever” — a fetish for relationships with Asian women. Critics’
concern for Ms. Lam’s use of her own sexuality to insult and possibly
assault a classmate is simply, according to the author, a further
reflection of how Ms. Lam doesn’t fit stereotypes about Asian women.

Another letter, published with apparently, an eye to equal time for both
sides of the discussion, takes Ms. Lam to task for making sweeping
generalizations about a race, even as she criticizes her college hook-up
for making the same, sweeping generalizations. The author, another female
student of Asian descent, notes that if we are to make progress in racial
harmony, all of our prejudices must be addressed and, subsequently,
dismissed.

Both columns were far more professional than the Facebook comments, which
tended toward some interesting generalizations — and illustrations! — of
their own.

Not all agreed with Ms. Lam.

Ms. Lam’s column has appeared on Thursday for the past several weeks, but
no column appeared this week (though the Letters to the Editor could be
the replacement). The editorial staff of the Daily Californian did not
respond to Heat Street‘s request for comment.
--
Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party has run out of gas.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for ending the disaster of the
Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.

Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.

Lam does, however, perfectly fit the stereotype of a rapist...
