Get Woke, Go Broke: Oberlin College

There is a price to be paid for indulging in runaway moonbattery. For Oberlin College, that price is at least $11.2 million and possibly much more.

For daring to object to sacred Persons of Color shoplifting wine, Gibson’s Bakery was targeted by the Ivory Tower moonbats in the small college town of Oberlin. Social justice warrior students were dispatched like swarms of flying monkeys in an attempt to drive the venerable bakery out of business for being “racist.”

Gibson’s sued. A partial verdict is in:

Oberlin College in Ohio will have to pay a nearby bakery more than $11 million in damages because it libeled the store, tagging it as racist, and interfered with its business, a jury said on Friday. …

The jury found the school and Oberlin’s vice president and dean of students, Meredith Raimondo, guilty of libel after Raimondo allegedly helped pass out flyers claiming that the bakery was “racist” and had a history of “racial profiling and discrimination.”

The $11.2 million may be only a down payment. It could triple when punitive damages are determined.

Already, Oberlin’s heavy emphasis on moonbattery has been costing it. With luck, this story will end with the college suffering the fate it attempted to inflict on Gibson’s Bakery: bankruptcy.
