Swarthmore College Marxist group disbands because....

A Marxist student group at Swarthmore College disbanded itself earlier this year after realizing that its members were too rich and too white to be real commies.

According to screenshots confidentially provided to Campus Reform by an individual with access to the group’s private Facebook page, the demise of the Swarthmore Anti-Capitalist Collective (SACC) came in the wake of a farewell letter from a member who had decided the group could never be an effective proponent of “unproblematized anticapitalist politics” due to its “history of abuse, racism, and even classism.”

"Their main support base was middle-upper class white kids who enjoy jogging."  

“From my understanding SACC disbanded because they realized the makeup and tactics of their group was at odds with their espoused principles,” Swarthmore Conservative Society President Gilbert Guerra told Campus Reform. “Their main support base was middle-upper class white kids who enjoy jogging.”

The farewell letter corroborates Guerra’s understanding, asserting that “SACC’s fundamental failure” was that “at its formation, it was made up of entirely white, with the exception of one person of color*, students,” and to make matters worse, “not one of [the founding members] are from low-income and/or working class backgrounds.”

That's because people from "low-income and/or working class backgrounds” often want to improve their lot in life, and doing so necessitates avoiding anything to do with Marxism.

Is this like that solar-powered coal mine?

Thanks for sharing

Maybe you can't.  It seems the White Nationalist rags you read don't have a hard time making stuff up though.

No way, a Communist group at a $65,000 p/y private college came from wealthy families?

Oddly, campus "free speech" defenders are silent when the speaker is a black person with radical beliefs.
