That’s the thing. Which is why this story bothered me so much, probably more than it deserved to, to be honest. It’s true that overall, the school didn’t completely fuck up. The fact that it initially decided to take this seriously enough to let it go this far is fucked up beyond belief but despite that initial dumb…
As you quote:
You know, I was totally in there supporting them, even taking the mattress to graduation. But filing a Title IX against her and the person accompanying her to the meetings (which was his job), was a dick move worthy of the patriarchy.
Bull. You didn't read the original article, did you? The University was supposed to make a decision in 60 days; instead, they sat on it for months, only conveniently making a decision shortly after a nationally published article called them on their crappy process.
None of those things is a Title IX violation. She’s entitled to accept one person’s version of events over another’s. That might make her shitty, but it doesn’t make her liable under Title IX.
That’s absurd. This professor was not in a position of power over this student, she could not do anything to her career. All she did was opine on the power dynamics of professor student relationships, and used a situation known to her as an example. Publishing an essay does not implicate Title IX at all. I’ll take it…
I think the students who made the complaint should be penalised for wasting everyone’s time and for causing Kipnis undue harm. And also for being fucking morons and an embarrassment to feminism but unfortunately that isn’t against the law.
There is a pending Title IX complaint Stephen Eisenman, a fellow faculty member Kipnis brought as her “support person” to meeting with the Title IX investigators. Eisenman is the President of the Faculty Senate and openly criticized the secretive and labyrinthine Title IX process. Students are now asking for Eisenman…
Has the show definitely been cancelled then? I hear “hiatus” and “temporarily shelved” but I haven’t heard WE CANCELLED THE GODDAMN SHOW BECAUSE THIS WHOLE THING AND THESE PEOPLE ARE A NIGHTMARE. That’s what I’m waiting for.
The real tragedy is that you are a dbag, with nothing better to do but complain about something as stupid as landscape versus portrait mode. Go back to your corner and STFU!
“I’m not racist...but...”
Wrong. You’re a racist piece of shit.
My brother has crohn’s, you don’t get to fucking judge peoples decision whether or not to have kids, It’s their choice not yours and there is also no guarantee the kids will even have it.
You lost me at the Murell story this week Pinkham. I like to see a good “Eff You” given to a deserving douche canoe but poisonings are well beyond acceptable.
Do you really care about the shade of skin pigment of a fictional character?
So, star power is the sum of whether or not an actor is worthy to step into a character’s shoes? Directorial assessment of acting ability and appropriate characterization don’t rate in your equation Uh-huh. Got it.
You knew it would suck because you are a racist.
The directors obviously didn’t give a shit about those Fantastic Four’s fans who are racist.
