Advisers for Bernie Sanders are launching a new organization to reach out to and recruit college students. Apparently, they don’t think that American college students get enough exposure to far left ideas.
Is this the dumbest thing you have ever heard?
In fact, the reason they are doing this is because they are genuinely worried about the effective efforts of Turning Point USA, the conservative campus organization founded by the late Charlie Kirk.
The left sees what TPUSA is doing and it’s scaring the hell out of them.
Liberals launch college project to counter Turning Point USA
A liberal media outlet founded by advisers to Sen. Bernie Sanders launched a project Monday to counter Turning Point USA’s growing conservative influence and presence on college campuses.
More Perfect University, created by the advocacy journalism nonprofit More Perfect Union, will focus on recruiting and training liberal content creators on campuses across the country, organizers said.
“We’ve seen the success of the right, and we aim to rival it by being a thought leader on campuses,” Faiz Shakir, founder and executive director of More Perfect Union, said in a statement.
The group runs one of the fastest-growing, left-wing channels on YouTube and has attracted attention across the political spectrum.
The new effort will have three main components: on-campus events, including live interviews, debates and podcast tapings; a national digital community on email and Discord; and students trained to produce a pipeline of stories for the organization’s online platforms. The organization said it plans to prioritize public and working-class campuses.
