A dude on ags posted a picture he took of a newsmax graphic listing the top five free speech universities (aws hosted images don't play nice on gE for some reason)

1. U of Chicago
2. Ksu cats  :ksu:
3. Aggie
4. Ucla
5. AZ state.

Cornhole Is a Pro Sport Now
The American Cornhole League wants to turn a game that's typically played with one hand holding a beer—and possibly named for an indecent part of the human body—into an international spectator sport

Remember all the crying they did when the confederate flag was banned from NASCAR tracks?

They also whined about the NHL last summer too.

Stanford comes out of this looking pretty weak. They initially didn't have the back of one of their own students, then they flip flopped after about 5 minutes of negative media attention.

If I had to guess I’d bet they flip flopped after it caught the attention of someone with authority and common sense who said what the eff are you guys doing. The position really is indefensible.

Definitely a bad look for Stanford either way.

Just skimmed the article. Stanford originally had a problem w/ this kid’s email, then changed their minds, right?

Good grief Stanford. Leave the kid alone.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I think they had that problem because the federalist society cried because this dude shoved them in a locker right?

Yeah, seems just loling at the federalist society from the outset would have been the preferred move.

Stanford probably has a stupid policy that allows someone to trigger an investigation and hold up their transcripts in the interim, which is absolutely the kind of limitations on free speech that right wingers are supposed to be on a crusade to protect. High comedy that this was the policy the Federalist society used to try and retaliate against this guy for owning them on an email.

I think the cat is out of the bag as far as the “leave government out of my business” conservatives who think Congress should force Twitter to promote Trump conspiracy theories. Really the only side I’ve seen with a consistent stance on free speech is probably the ACLU.

I feel compelled to again state that the Federalist Society is not some shady, Q-anon-esque organization.

The ACLU has been very good.
