Exactly. This just makes me so furious. Everyone else gets to sit back and relax while this asshole gut punches people who are gut punched continuously by this same casual racism.

The idea that this guy could baldly state that without any self-awareness just proves to me that some people actually DO need a gut punch.

Why do you think he was comparing the two? That doesn’t make any sense to me. Seriously, what was he trying to achieve? Do you honestly think that’s a useful way to discuss hate speech?

Part of critical thinking is recognizing a bullshit premise when you hear one. Which is worse? Violence and hate speech are inextricably intertwined. He could’ve used a million examples to explain that. The reason he came up with that shitty question instead is that he’s never thought outside his own overprivileged…

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.

Honestly there are so many typos in this article that I feel like I’m reading a second language that I only kinda learned in high school. I’m guessing at half of it.

I would give up GSC season for co-ed scouting. It’s crazy that we still segregate by gender.

Googled these mythical Tim Tams. It turns out we have them in the States, too! But what do Girl Scouts do in Australia if they’re not out selling cookies?

Which circle of hell doesn’t have girl scout cookies?

The parents who refuse to let the girls talk drive me crazy. I want to hear about your badges!

Fucking arrogant self-centered insensitive people who have never experienced hardship of any kind.

And if it’s a family of two, and both members of the family make ten thousand dollars, they would have to make out with one car. That would be good economics, although it’s often inconvenient.

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.
