Leftist students call North Korean defector Yeonmi Park a ‘liar,’ destroy fliers for her event at Syracuse
Leftist students at Syracuse University recently voiced opposition to an event featuring Yeonmi Park, a North Korean defector.
Ahead of the event hosted by the Syracuse College Republicans in partnership with Young America’s Foundation, students destroyed fliers and posted messages critical of Park and the College Republicans in an online forum.
Park, who delivered her speech on Apr. 5, “has criticized concepts like political correctness, trigger warnings and ‘woke culture’ in her career,” according to the student newspaper, The Daily Orange.
Photos obtained by Campus Reform show fliers for the event torn, thrown to the ground, or covered by other fliers.
In an online forum for Syracuse students, someone posted a photo of a torn flier. Underneath the photo, another user wrote, “The b**ch is a liar and a fraud.”
One post tells the forum to “[r]espect other people’s viewpoints.”
“I don’t respect people [who] are actively trying to take away my (and others [sic]) rights,” another user replies. “I don’t have to respect anyone.”
Yeonmi Park has seen life under Marxist rule, so the left goes crazy when she says things like this:
Normal day in Chicago!
This is what happens when Marxists run the city… https://t.co/A6ed0rK9DX

As a result, some people on the left will actually deny reality and history by claiming that she is a liar.
Our system of higher education has become leftist indoctrination and deserves most of the blame.
