Side note - it's so sad to me to see (((Yale))) and (((Harvard))). These were Christian institutions. Jonathan "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" was an early graduate of Yale, there are buildings there named after him although I'm sure not for long.

They are taken over by the commies because the right-wing conservatives escaped to the rural areas instead of fighting back. Conflict avoidance.
Why rural areas have higher % of white population than urban areas? Because of conflict avoidance, procrastination, and the victim mentality instead of fixing the problem.

New Haven is full of Blacks and now spics, too. It's been abandoned by most white people unless they work at Yale. It's one of those things where it's a demographic problem (like Detroit) and it can't be fixed until we're honest as a society about it. We're getting to a tipping point but for such a long time no one could say anything because they'd be called racist. I feel for parents who had kids to support and couldn't just throw their careers away by fighting back, because people relied on them. Ultimately, that's what makes White people better - we take care of each other instead of acting impulsively and ignoring our responsibilities to each other.
