The Death of Free Speech: Uber PC'ism-A further look

[DQ12]

So men, if you really are #WithUs and would like us to not hate you for all the millennia of woe you have produced and benefited from, start with this: Lean out so we can actually just stand up without being beaten down. Pledge to vote for feminist women only. Don’t run for office. Don’t be in charge of anything. Step away from the power. We got this. And please know that your crocodile tears won’t be wiped away by us anymore. We have every right to hate you. You have done us wrong. #BecausePatriarchy. It is long past time to play hard for Team Feminism. And win.

Saying women should hate men seems very anti-PC. She clearly triggered a bunch of dudes

the patriarchy thing gives me uncontrollable lulz every time I see it, I hope it never ends.

I suppose there are more people here who are sexist than are racist.

Obvious caveats that this person could be making up their punishment, but there was a protest of an IDF panel at UVA.

Campus police being called, 20 hours of community service and a 7 page paper pending approval of the dean under threat of expulsion seems to be the fallout. What do we think here?

I haven’t seen any discussion on what happens to people “no platforming” speakers here and I thought it would be interesting.

I think that punishment seems pretty fair.

Very misleading headline.

This seems like a reasonable punishment for her decision to do bad things.  Partially punitive but mostly educational.

[DQ12]

I think the appropriateness of the punishment depends on the activity being punished.  If this was merely a protest (i.e. a non-disruptive display showing opposition) then I don't think any punishment is appropriate.

That said, if she was actually impairing the speaker's ability to speak or the listener's ability to hear, then I think some punishment would be appropriate.  I don't like the idea of making an adult write an essay as a punishment (especially if the essay expects the person to espouse an idea that she may not agree with).  Compelling a person to recite the underlying rationales of the First Amendment seems inherently contradictory.

Assuming some punishment was appropriate I think I would've preferred just the community service.

This isn't the stand for the flag thread fsd.

If this person was "conservative" the activity would be characterized as anti-Semitic, nazi and/or kkk

I’ve never seen a more racial dividing presidency in my lifetime. That’s why I never voted for the guy. Obama always knew how to pour fuel on the fire when it came to racial tensions.

Yet you voted for Trump? Seems odd.

Care to provide some examples?

was black + was president = racially divisive.  case closed.

[420seriouscat69]

Ignored Ferguson and the #BLM movement. His own home city is the most corrupt city in the U.S. etc. but yeah, he was half black too.
