    The true compromise would be to just name every public building after famous American serial killers, "The Jeffery Dahmer Police Academy"

          Well... I mean, the post-reconstruction Klan Terror would make a pretty good plot for a prestige TV series. The distant Republic invades, defeats the evil slaver armies, stations federal troops, things get massively better for everyone and there's a ten year golden age of peace, prosperity, and progress. But then some political shit happens in the far away republic capitol so the troops get withdrawn and all the evil slaver army officers for costumed terror squads that gradually crush the newly emerging society and violently re-impose slavery while people fight desperately to stop them? It's pretty fucking dystopian though, History makes for pretty depressing source material.

    Once again liberals doing exactly and only enough towards a good thing that they piss off reactionaries and guarantee a backlash that results in a net loss of progress.

      Universities really are just completely ensnared by the iron law of instititutions as other orgs. Every donor must be indulged in order of the value of their donation. No controversy can be undertaken, ever. Anything that makes the uni look bad must be ruthlessly suppressed.
