Documentary on Political Correctness Shut Down for Freedom Day

It's UC Irvine so it's not too much of a surprise.

Forty minutes into a University of California-Irvine screening of the documentary Can We Take a Joke? – which explores the stifling political correctness on campus – a fire alarm went off, immediately ending the event, New University reports.

Last week’s screening was organized by the campus chapters of College Republicans and Young Americans for Liberty (YAL) for their “Freedom Day” celebration, which also included a “free speech wall” where students could write anything they want.

This is part of a pattern in which politically incorrect events are shut down by any means necessary. If the crybullies can't solve the problem through the more direct approach, crying, they switch to bullying. If they can't do either one, a fire alarm gets pulled. And no investigation amounting to anything then happens.

And, speaking of being unable to take a joke...

After screening ‘Zoolander 2,’ we observed that the film did not portray the LGBTQ community in a positive light and made a series of inappropriate jokes at the expense of individuals of marginalized identities,” the programming board said Sunday in an email to The College Fix. “The College Programming Board strives to put on events which support an inclusive community on campus. We did not believe that screening ‘Zoolander 2’ reflected our values, nor did it help us promote the campus climate we hope to create.”

So now movies have to promote the right politically correct campus climate... or they don't get screened. Because that's just not funny.
