UofA prof identifies as a hippopotamus:

http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/...s-as-a-hippopotamus-in-academic-journal/

This is so bizarre that it ought to be faux news, just in case it isn't. The comments are amusing.

Hippos are too dangerous to walk the street. Give him a choice, zoo, a hippo-rich river in Africa if his choosing, or, we'll have to put you down.

Sounds like he actually "identifies" with a stuffed, toy hippo?

Wonder what restroom he uses?

In the article, Morin claims that while he understands that he is not actually a hippopotamus, his theoretical exercise of being transspecies, or “tranimal,” provided him comfort as he came to terms with his real-life transgenderism.
Any bets on whether this is actually a woman? Maybe formerly a really fat woman?

from a different article
Quote
A PhD student explained his “transpecies” hippopotamus identity and why he prefers being “transpecies” to transgender in a peer-reviewed paper published in May.
If his peers like this garbage, it says a lot about the university and who his peers are.

I wonder if he knows that hippos poop while in the water then shake their tails to spread it around. Kinda takes away from the 'cute and sexy hippo', doesn't it.

so a visiting french student(they call it a scholar) makes himself feel better about being a cross dressing queer by demanding he be referred to as being a hippo.... gotcha

Brilliant thought! YOU think you're a hippo. Let's see what the HIPPOS think. I think he will find them somewhat intolerant of morons.

I'm waiting to see how 'tolerant and accepting' the Left is when somebody 'identifies' themself as the reincarnation of Sepp Dietrich or Michael Wittman......

Why in the hell did we all read that? I made it part-way, then wondered how much this guy is getting for his ridiculous "work".

Nothing wrong with being a Hippo. Provided you like to lie naked in a parasite infested swamp 16 hours a day, coming out only at night to eat grass, attack your friends and kill them with your teeth, and have a life span of about 15 years.

Oh yes, no TV, smartphones, or reading material. And no equal rights for females.


Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

From the Universities Department of Gender and Women's studies website:

lorentin Félix Morin is a French student who just started his PhD this year at Université Paris 8. He works at the intersection of Trans Studies and Animal Studies, focusing on tranimal body modifications, practices and subjectivities. He is beyond excited to be in Tucson for the Spring semester, benefit from all the department's and the Institute's activities, conduct fieldwork in the US, and meet everyone! (He uses the name 'Felix' in English.)

His article was published in The Journal of Theoretical Humanities. i have to wonder if that's that same journal that published the nonsensical hoax study?

Most likely state and fed. If so, while you all get to contribute to some extent, Roninphx and Crossfireoops and a number of others here on the 'Fire get to contribute even more!!

Here's another interesting part of the scam.

When these lame journals publish their "peer reviewed" articles, All the Universities are forced to buy these journals, further funding these departments bent on the destruction of Western Civilization. So you, and I, and our kids attending University, are all paying for this Marxist propaganda, because that's all post-modernism is, it's re-branded, re-packaged Marxism.
