‘Feud over ‘racist’ peak
South Island’s Agassiz Glacier has been “un-named” as part of a global campaign to remove the use of the name of Agassiz, a Swiss geologist who believed not all races were created equal…’
So the sin of Agassiz is telling the truth? My, haven’t we come a long, long way! Next, it’ll be burning witches. And books.
Perhaps “grow up” is the wrong expression – a better one for the Thought Nazis would be “fuck off and die”.
Agree. In reality who would’ve even heard of this glacier other than through this stupid exercise.
This article by Fred Reed backs up Mr Agassiz’s opinion. It’s posted on Fred on Everything on 25 June 2015.

From your link:
‘I find Cornel West, a black professor, complaining of White Supremacy, which he believes our black President needs to remedy. Obama, he says, is “niggerized.”
“A niggerized black person is a black person who is afraid and scared and intimidated when it comes to putting a spotlight on white supremacy and fighting against white supremacy,” West said.
I would like to explain to Professor West a few things about this dread supremacy:
We have White Supremacy, Professor, because for 2500 years we, whites, have produced the best minds on the planet, the greatest flourishing of the arts and sciences ever seen, the most complex and organized societies. We have White Supremacy, whatever exactly it may be, because we have been the earth’s most successful race. No other has come close. Deal with it.
We put probes on Mars and invented the thousands of technologies needed to do it. We developed the symphony orchestra, the highest form of musical expression. We invented the airplane, the computer, the internet, and tennis shoes. Putting it compactly, we invented the modern world. A degree of privilege, however you may conceive it, goes with the territory….’
There ya go, Barry. A post.
Thank you. I feel honoured!
Another thing that Fred’s article backs up is your statement that Mr Agassiz was telling the truth.
I’m sure Mr Agassiz must be correct – as he is a very distant connection in my family tree.
Then of course he is correct, Ross!
They should just rename it back to the name that is known originally.
“the Glacier that now one ever knew about because dumb blacks would never have climbed up the fucken mountain to see it cause thay are dumb cunts Glacier”
