    Jesus Christ what college did you attend? They stopped the Stanford Prison Experiment-style teaching a long time ago.

    You know, it’s actually not “dancing around” anything. It’s called being a decent human being. At this exact moment all over the world people are teaching and talking about horrible, horrible realities and difficult philosophical issues. And almost everyone except this guy can do that without being discourteous and

    52 fucking stars for this weak-ass sauce? That’s gotta be 52 people who have never walked into a college classroom in their lives, because there’s about a million ways to teach and discuss sensitive painful issues without inflicting more pain.

    How the fuck is teaching in a professional and respectful manner “censoring” yourself? I’ve had literal classes about hate speech where nobody has ever felt the need to start spouting hate speech.

    There’s such a thing as narrative distance. This “professor” doesn’t have any.

    I like what she’s trying to do here but based on this interview I hate the terms she’s invented.

    Well, yeah, in his case I believe the guilty plea. But outside of his case, false confessions are very real and very coerced. So we don’t always get to believe what people admit to.

    WOW. Was 2008 that long ago? It’s like reading stuff from primitive ancient times. I feel like even Breitbart wouldn’t publish that junk these days.

    Nope. Robin did.

    So many guys are dead positive they alone know everyone’s thoughts and desires despite having only heard a story second or third-hand. Lord grant me the confidence of a mediocre man.

    True. Except over at Jalopnik they printed the whole speech and they’re having a really cool discussion that otherwise wouldn’t have happened.

    Conceded.

    This ad exists solely to counter the “she ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and a diet coke” criticisms. Women are embarrassed to order diet soft drinks now.

    What do all the “make it plain” things mean? I’ve never heard that and I grew up in a fundamentalist church in the 1960s.
