collegiate extortion

The Left is good at extortion.  Period.

But what is extortion?  Wikipedia defines it as:

obtaining money, property, or services from a person, entity, individual or institution, through coercion

and coercion is defined as:

the practice of compelling a person or manipulating them to behave in an involuntary way (whether through action or inaction) by use of threats, intimidation, trickery, or some other form of pressure or force.

So, extortion does not have to involve the use of force.  It does not even have to involve any threat that is real or true, the only qualifier is that the victim of extortion believes that the extorting party is going to make good on their threats.
