A US court hasn’t ruled anything on that case yet. It hasn’t been heard yet. I don’t want to be mean or anything but you aren’t succeeding in convincing me that leftist groups are plotting to attack Jews.

I did. I didn't see evidence of a leftist student group targeting students based on ethnicity in the article you sent me. Can you quote the part that talks about this to me?

I was very clear about what I wanted to see evidence of at the beginning and my request has not changed since you started engaging: >What organised group of leftists has attacked a group of people based on their ethnicity? Do you have a

I know that Jewish people are attacked by antisemites. No one is questioning that Jews face race-based hatred, just like Muslims do. Especially after 9/11, Muslims face a lot of antimuslim sentiment here. I am questioning the notion th

Yeah. Sometimes college students are older, but that article isn't really evidence that student groups are hitting the streets bashing people based on ethnicity.

I am asking for simple evidence of something that was claimed to be widespread, but so far no one has presented any. Can you link me to evidence that a leftist group attacked a student because of their ethnicity?

The intercept article you linked says HRW gave the money back, so that's kind of a nothingburger, isn't it?

Where are those quotes from?

Can you quote the part of this article where a leftist student group organises to assault a student because of their ethnicity? I couldn't find that part.

I googled the term you put in quotes and found a lovely article in Nature that seems to indicate that it's mostly about correcting common lies in Mathematics history. Seems relatively straightforward to me...

Can you expand on this? What is SJP? What student did they attack based on ethnicity? Can you send any links?

> what does this have to with nonsensical subjects being taught in universities Since we’re bringing it back onto topic, has any university ever ran a “decolonised maths” program? What would that look like?

> Is there anything they could say or do to make their opinion worth listening to? That’s the thing, I didn’t say their opinion isn’t worth listening to or consideration in general. Acknowledging bias isn’t the same as discarding opinion

Goodness gracious. Invoking religious self-harm imagery in response to mild criticism feels wildly out of pocket. Do you genuinely think anti-colonial activism demands this or anything even resembling this of post-colonial states? It feels

What organised group of leftists has attacked a group of people based on their ethnicity? Do you have a link you could share?

Do you believe antisemitism is a problem at Harvard? If so, what led you to believe this?

Reminds me of the venerable Dril: issuing correction on a previous post of mine, regarding the terror group ISIL. you do not, under any circumstances, 'gotta hand it to them.'

You're not even rallying against petit bourg, let alone the bourg. You're literally complaining about the lumpenproles complaining of their suffering. Unfortunate news: "Well paid" proles are still proles. If your intent

For anyone viewing this thread now, take into consideration what wikipedia says about MEMRI: "Critics describe MEMRI as a strongly pro-Israel advocacy group that, in spite of describing itself as being "independent" and &quot

I wonder what could attract hatred on BlueSky other than being Adobe...

by skyyler 2y ago
BlueSky is a very kind place in my experience. I don't get people asking me to justify my existence like I do on Twitter. Seriously, people on Twitter demand I debate them about the validity of my life. That has yet to happen on BlueSk

At this point, times have shifted, and meta-progression is usually considered an aspect of modern roguelikes. There was a trend of calling them "rogue-lites" but that's faded and now games like ADOM and DCSS are "Classic

I suppose I should have included a source for the 75% number. https://web.archive.org/web/20090722190606/http://www.hrw.or... Apologies for missing the mark there.

HRW is funded by donations. More than 75% of its financial support comes from North America. If you are alleging that Qatar is motivating the ideology of a human rights organization, I don't think that's true at all.

I think it's a little presumptuous to call anyone that criticizes Israel an "islamist". Plenty of people that aren't Muslim would like to see the bombing of hospitals to stop. Plenty of people that aren't Muslim wou

I believe you are free to criticize and even boycott those states over their ethnonationalism. Boycotting israel over their continued occupation and genocide is illegal in most US states now.
