make sure to use some tissues to clean up your keyboards afterwards guys, i'm sure it's sticky

the professor was barely right, and the student was an idiot. but now all you fucks are going to take the worst aspects and balloon them so that you can jerk yourselves raw about the "babied millenial college students" - if hubski's search actually worked for shit i could link the 10 times that kind of sentiment has been posted before.

beyond that, what you don't understand is that this dumb trick was capitalizing on this, and you bought it hook line and sinker. The first email literally affirmed students unrestricted right to free speech and essentially said "Please try to have respect for each other." Then Christakis responded with a two-page long email about "M-muh freeze peach!" because fuck me right. Take a non-forceful request and blow it up and MAYBE it's because you're more vested in being and DEFENDING being an offensive asshole.

UGH http://genius.com/8083489

here you dumb fucks https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2015/11/02/students-accuse-yale-sae-fraternity-brothers-of-having-a-white-girls-only-policy-at-their-party/

or how about that white girls only party that's being investigated at this fucking university right now?

but we gotta defend the censorship that isn't even happening right? can't keep that status quo if i don't get spit at on the way to the fucking cafeteria, right? those "gangsta costumed" frat fucks on the hill are who we need to focus on right?

reflect my ass.

hope you're happy holy shit am i the only black person on hubski (FUCKING LIKELY) or is everybody that fucking idiotic. or both. congrats on being so fucking thoughtful

white people. fuck. this is why i have trust issues.

I think your response pretty well outlines the response of the students. Misplaced outrage flowing over into matters that the outrage isn't relevant to leading to crazily reactionary responses that only serve to make your point less likely to be understood, accepted, and engaged with.

This person has actually made a few points regarding the overall reaction to this (the article itself constitutes a reaction) and you're simply dismissing it based on tone. While Hubski encourages civil discussion, you're straight up ignoring his/her perspective. That's called tone policing, and your condescending reply is definitely not helping further discussion.

oh please, fuck off.

racism to you is a "discussion that needs to be calmly discussed"

racism for me is the shit i have to deal with daily. swap places with me and lets see how it goes.

or not, because you probably couldn't fucking handle it.

jesus. "my point." this place and the rest of the world are never going to change. must be fun being the default.

This was 8bit, hypothetical person who wandered by after me and is about to check.

Was it? What happened to 8bit? Did he get banned or something?

He deleted his account.

He deleted his account and then came back on here to get angry? Why?
