Unfortuantly it is not only the students. From the article:Students do stupid **** all the time.
Where's your sense of fun.Isn't that what we call "a storm in a tea cup"?
This looks like wrong information from an unreliable source. (Now how often have we seen that? ).
Sounds like a really productive idea!
Next political foes will face....
1) Excommunication by priests, ministers, & rabbis.
2) Eviction by landlords.
3) Admissions to universities denied.
4) Banning from RF.
5) Extended warranties revoked.
Where's your sense of fun.
These people put much work in behaving
like fools. It would be impolite to ignore them.
You must live in one really nasty state.Most of those things and much more, have and do happen. (Not RF)
Usually to socialists and Communists.
But we are talking about rightwing supported activists here.
Does this mean that you agree it's reasonable toTurns out we should have been as wise as @exchemist who searched for more accurate information and found out that petition is both more serious and based on a more reasonnable ground.
Do you not remember McCarthism.You must live in one really nasty state.
What ballocks. See post 7.Unfortuantly it is not only the students. From the article:
What is most concerning is that faculty members have joined at Harvard and other schools to create blacklists and take retaliatory actions against people who were supportive or served in the Trump Administration. This effort is being spurred on by the rhetoric of figures like MSNBC’s Joy Reid who called for the “de-Ba’athification” of the Republican Party and CNN’s Don Lemon insisting that Trump voters as a group are supporters of Nazis and the KKK. This language seeks to label the votes of almost half of the electorate as virtual hate speech or extremism. The same call is now being heard on campuses for a purging of those deemed complicit in the Trump administration. That is beyond outrage. It is opportunism to use this tragedy to settle scores and purge opposing voices. The alternative is free speech. We can continue to engage each other in civil and respectful dialogue — the very antithesis of what occurred on January 6th. Universities could play a critical role in that dialogue but it will require a faith in free speech and ourselves that seems diminishing by the day.
Does this mean that you agree it's reasonable to
revoke degrees based upon political behavior?
(Professional organizations are another matter.)
I know of it, but I was too young to remember.Do you not remember McCarthism.
It revoked the rights of many Americans.
Ya know....sometimes retribution looks good whenIllegal political behaviours perhaps.
