Wait, I'm confused...Maybe I'm not reading this right?
Some white kids perform in loin clothes and the university defends it as free speech.
Some dick prints a bunch of racist fliers, and the university takes action to block any more from being printed.
Then we get this: “When it was happening to black students, it was a matter of free speech,” he said. “Now that it’s happening to white, Jewish students, it’s something else. There seems to be no conflation of hate speech and free speech now.”
How is it racist for the school to stop neo-nazi fliers from being printed? What was "happening to black students" when some white guys danced in loin clothes? I hope I'm reading this wrong...I don't want the world to be this stupid.
- 001spartan 11y agoWeev is a well-known white supremacist. I would take anything he says with a hefty portion of salt.
- pakled_engineer 11y agoHe claims to be a white nationalist not a supremacist. He's helped the daily stormer site before like when somebody jacked their domain.
- 001spartan 11y agoI'll take your word for it. I guess I conflate them because they're both utterly abhorrent worldviews.
- GFK_of_xmaspast 11y agoThe difference between a 'white nationalist' and a 'white supremacist' is as meaningful as the difference between a trilby and a fedora.
- pakled_engineer 11y agoThere's a difference, just like there is in Turk nationalist groups vs Turk supremacy groups (Grey Wolves). One believes they are genetically superior to all others and chosen to rule earth, and can excuse mass murder because they don't see anybody else as human. These groups are extremely dangerous and responsible for the holocaust and genocides in Africa. North Korean juche ideology is also supremist. The other is a racist nationalist "pride" group that does not believe they are genetically superior like Weev, the Black Nationalist Panthers, ect. For the record I don't subscribe to either ideology but have met plenty of these groups unfortunately.
- gyardley 11y agoThat quote in the parent is not from Weev, but from a member of the Black Justice League, an activist group active at Princeton.
- soared 11y agoWhy didn't they mention this in the article? This changes the whole meaning of the events.
- wfo 11y agoAlso it seems to me it's pretty important that he is not affiliated with the school. If a crazy person comes onto your campus and starts screaming racist profanity at your students it's certainly your right to have them removed. If one of your students does so then you have an entirely different responsibility as an administrator because teaching students to be better is your job, and the actions of your students reflect upon your school.
