...nazism?

Ohio State marching band’s Nazi song draws Jewish ire
According to the Journal , one song, titled Goodbye Kramer and set to the music of the song Don’t Stop Believing , contained lyrics such as “small town Jew... who took the cattle train to you know where,” “[h]ead to the furnace room, [’b] out to meet your fiery doom,” and “[o]h the baking never ends, t goes on and on and on and on.”

An unofficial project of the marching band, the songbook was not authorized by the university and was passed around by members with a warning that it should not be shared with outsiders. Administrators discovered its existence following an investigation last year.

The writers of the book were apparently aware of the potential for readers to take offense at the lyrics; the book’s introduction, quoted the Journal , admitted that “some of these [songs] may be offensive to you,” adding that readers should “suck it up, act like you got a pair and have a good time singing them.”

Nice to see college life being so open in toleration for the intolerant...

On the opposite side we have:
Harry Vincent, a student at Texas Christian University, was disciplined after someone—presumably a non-student—complained to TCU administrators about his comments on social media. A TCU official then accused Vincent of “infliction of bodily or emotional harm,” instructed him to write a letter explaining how he should be punished, and ultimately suspended him.

What did Vincent do? He tweeted some unkind remarks about Baltimore residents and Muslims. Specifically, he referred to the “hoodrat criminals in Baltimore” and told someone to “chill the ★■◆● out you islamic ★■◆● head.”
I guess it is OK if you insult Jews, but heaven help you if you disparage a Muslim.

Kind of like how some places are tolerant of the intolerance people show towards certain religions.

You can disparage Catholicism without singing about Romans feeding Catholics to the lions...

You can criticize Buddhism without waxing poetic about shooting Buddhists in killing fields...

You can make fun of Hinduism without sermonizing about crucifying Hindus outside the Taj Mahal...

you can claim all Catholics are murderous crusaders.

you can claim that all Hindus are trying to bring back serfdom

you can claim that all buddhists rub the fat guy's belly.

you can claim that all muslims want to kill non-believers.
