it's also apparently based on speculation, rightwingnut bigot lies or the whining of the suspended bigots since
Colorado College students reported expelled for comments
Not a bigot nor a 'rightwingnut' and still can't understand supporting this ultra PC fascism of stifling communication that seems to be running rampant among today's educational institutions. Do you *really* believe enforcing this ultra-sensitive culture in students will be an IMPROVEMENT upon an already too litigious, too thin skinned, responsibility bankrupt society when they finally assimilate into it? If you say it will, then the depth of your ignorance has no limit. It won't improve race relations. It won't improve gender relations. People will still possess their bigotries, but keep them a secret and thus make said relations much, much worse.
The school's disciplinary reaction to speech that at worst should be considered mildly offensive seems comically overblown. Like hunting prairie dogs with nukes overblown. The worst part? Enforcement of the code of conduct will always be completely SELECTIVE. This is a college, not a prison. No tolerance equals no thought required which is the breeding ground of stupidity. School administrators have simply traded one core responsibility for another lesser (but more lucrative) responsibility - they do only enough to avoid lawsuit, thus, essentially stifling the entire education system in this country. They don't seem to do anything much beyond filling chairs, so **** them.
Hate on my opinion all you want - I would like to see the administration pay dearly for making an example of this student financially and academically for something so... benign. However, that would lead to lawsuits and essentially lowering to their level. We need to squash this nonsensical behavior of leading by our 'feelz' all the time and act like ******* rational human beings for a change.
The problem with your theory is just that. Its a theory and in no way requires anyone to accept your opinion that someone is ignorant if they disagree. I for one could care less if it improved race relations. I dont live my life to do so. If people want improved race relations then they should show respect. Accepting these inbreds aggressions as just something one has to deal with is enabling them. Its the height of stupidity to think that allowing the aggressions will make race relations better if thats your aim. BTW emotions are not rational and they constitute a large part of what it means to be human.
Not sure what point you're trying to make here. Nothing I said really contradicts your comment.
Actually your comment is at odds with my comment.
1. You think the inbreds action are benign. I disagree. Nothing about the actions are gentle or kindly or without harm.
2. You think people are ignorant if they believe punishing people for breaking rules of conduct is a bad thing.
3. You would like to see the administration pay dearly. I would like to see them used as an example of a administration that has their priorities in order.
Etc
Etc
Ah, okay then we definitely disagree, I suppose.
1. If by 'inbreds', you are referring to the suspended, yes, I believe the actions are benign. I see no profanity or slurs - it all seems to be implied. A dismal reaction by the terminally outraged. Mountains from molehills, etc.
2. It ain't that cut and dry and I believe you must know it, or you're trolling. This is selective enforcement, plain and simple. The enforcers (administration) should at least be made to explain themselves in some sort of trial/investigation, but they won't because the law protects them from that responsibility. Quite a chickenshit business.
3. I would, and your reality seems completely skewed to me, no offense. Pick your battles in life. Might as well wipe your ass with the constitution as well, because if this clear overreaction of the administration over some benign anonymous comments is your idea of 'having priorities in order', I hope you stay out of the education system.
