A progressive history teacher “recently posted a video in which she claims human sacrifices performed by the ancient Inca civilization were ‘voluntary’ and ‘kind,'” reports The College Fix:
Emily Pool, who according to her Linkedin page is “talented in successfully differentiating learning styles in for [sic] socially, economically, and racially diverse classrooms,” says in her vid the Inca were “kind” about dispatching their victims via sacrifice … because they drugged them first.
“The Inca would use coca leaves … to drug up the sacrifice and leave them on a cold chilly mountain to be exposed to the elements,” the nose ring-wearing Poolsays. “A volunteer sacrifice where you’re heavily drugged before you die …?”
The Colorado high school teacher further claims Incan sacrifices really were no different from “most other civilizations throughout history in times of crisis,” adding she “could equate human sacrifice throughout history to so many things” (but doesn’t)….Inca human sacrifice included “strangulation, a blow to the head, suffocation, or being buried alive while unconscious.”
Pool also says in her video those appalled by the concept of human sacrifice, given other horrors in human history, are “indicative” of a “quite white education” — a focus on the bad stuff (like sacrifices) and not the “wonders [the Inca] accomplished.”…
Her comments regarding human sacrifice mirror those of a Mexican archeologist who said of Mayan sacrifices “It’s not that [its practitioners] were violent,” it was just “their way of connecting with the celestial bodies.
Many educators promote progressive ideology or extreme world views. The climate of ideological conformity is so intense that 88 percent of students at two leading universities pretend to be even more progressive than they actually are to avoid a hostile reaction from their peers, faculty, and college staff.
Colleges offer courses such as “Queer Marxism.” Occidental College offers the course “Black Queer Thought.” The course critiques “the demands of heteronormativity, white supremacy, patriarchy and capitalism.”
