Disgusting!

Check out what the presidents of M.I.T., Harvard, and Penn had to say when asked whether a student advocating genocide should be disciplined. Notice the smirks. 



One can only imagine what they would do to a student who advocated genocide for other ethnic groups.  The President of the University of Pennsylvania resigned today over her remarks as her Board was about to step in and fire her.  A shame the other two haven't quit but it's quite obvious they have no shame.

I am so glad these 3 "morally superior" stooges did this. The emperor is naked.

This might get someone's attention.
The University of Pennsylvania (Penn) lost a major $100 million donation on Thursday amid the fallout from Penn President Liz Magill’s comments at a recent House hearing on campus antisemitism.

Smug and self-satisfied is never a good look.

Who are they afraid of offending? The DEI police? And why does equity and inclusion only seem to apply to "people of color"?

Um, yeah. Tuesday.

Penn’s President resigned several hours ago.

As always, language such as “stepping down”, “resigned from her role..”, etc etc will continue to be used to disguise the fact that persons caught red-handed will never lose tenure or suffer the loss of a single cent of salary or compensation. Just hide in a different department until it all blows over.

The woke/progressive Penn State president resigned today. AMF.

Last week Bill Ackman said Harvard president Claudine Gay was only appointed because of DEI: “I learned from someone with first person knowledge of the @Harvard president search that the committee would not consider a candidate who did not meet the DEI office's criteria. The same was likely true for other elite universities doing searches at the same time, creating an even more limited universe of DEI-eligible presidential candidates.”

Of course Claudine Gay is disgusting and the smart bet would be that Ackman is absolutely correct, but one must ask what would have been the case had someone with, let’s say an Irish last name, had stated that Claudine Gay was only appointed because of DEI???

The woke Penn State president resigned to be able to "spend more time with her family."

BS = We know what that means
MS = More of the same
PhD = Piled higher and deeper

This will get you granted tenure at The Univeristy of Mississippi, albeit no food involved.

So what would you expect. These presidential appointments are largely just political hacks who straddle the fence and keep the money rolling in. They do not have the freedom to commit the institution and their huge donors to any political position without explicit directions from university bigwigs. They were just caught with their pants down. They will simply be replaced with new mouthpieces who have revised position statements. No big deal.

I don’t see any smirking by anyone thinking the genocide of jews or advocacy of such is okay. What I see is people suppressing mirth at a congressclown asking a rigged question, “rigged” as in “whatever you say about jews, you’d better make it utterly and entirely laudatory and don’t you forget it ever or else your job, your career, your bank account, your friends, your everything will be destroyed before your eyes.”

American free speech has been turned on its head. Where it used to be freedom to speak one’s mind on matters political, a small coterie of people worked tirelessly and successfully to have its meaning changed to freedom to make pornographic material and say “fuck.” This is where we are now. Americans can stomach pornography and raunchy comedians; goring oxen, though, Americans are too broad-minded to allow that anymore.

But what do I know? I only come visit this blog for the total freedom of speech we have here.

I'm making a donation to Elise Stefanik's campaign tomorrow. Good job by the Congresswoman to hold their feet to the fire.

You dummies know that Penn is not Penn St right? And Penn St is a large football school that normal people go to. Penn is Ivy League, home of Wharton. Come on y’all.

I detest antisemitism but I'm also disturbed by the efforts to limit free speech at private entities as expressed by their students. The First Amendment applies to government restrictions on free speech. Can the government come after us if we express an opinion that child abusers should be executed? And no, I'm not equating child abusers with Jewish people. I'm just trying to see where the line is drawn between voicing one's opinion, albeit violent, and "free speech".

Just to clarify
This isn’t penn state!! This is a private Ivy League school. This is unreal that you don’t know the difference. Yesterday a guy in ridgeland tried to tell me that university of Miami was public. Are people really this dumb

The issue I have with what is happening at universities, and really everywhere, is that there is a belief that one side can say or do whatever, but the other side can’t. One side can cancel and boycott, but it wrong for the other side to do the same. Free speech should be that: free. But consequences, sure bring them. Don’t be afraid to say the free speech, unless you are willing to pay the consequences.

These presidents couldn’t acknowledge that what was happening on their campuses would have certainly been totally shut down and students forced to attend reeducation programs if they advocated for only biological females to compete in women’s sports.

And it was most assuredly the cockiness and condescension from the presumably academic intellectuals answering the questions that caused the outcry as much as what they substantively said.

Penn President resigned but transferred back to her tenured position in the Penn Law School teaching future lawyers her bent on left wing advocacy.

What happen to “ Freedom of Speech “ ? I guess it’s okay as long as you aren’t Offended ! Who is Woke now ?

Donor pulled $100 million gift to Penn State when this happened. I'm glad. Penn pres resigned (read got fired), issued an "apology". They can all kiss my ass. Sick SOBs.

No, just people in Ridgeland, the apartment capital of the state.

You'd be surprised at the responses if you did 'Man On The Street' interviews in Ridgeland. Be sure to include the new city hall.

Elise Stefanik just showed why the GOP is worthless, except for Congressman Thomas Massie of Kentucky.

@6:12am - Do you really think anyone on this blog has any idea there’s a difference? Much less where either or located. Just red meat being thrown to GOP go woke go broke cult.

They were put in a tough spot by a Trump cultist representative trying to make the news. Their policies have to be in compliance with the first amendment, you know, the one before the only other amendment, the 2nd. Lets look at it another way, had they had policies that broke up these “death to Israel and the Jews” rallies and expelled students and anyone else participating from the school/campus, how many of the “freedom” idiots would be suing to protect their free speech? I know some would, but probably not all since it was brown people talking about killing white people, so that’s not ok. There’s a clause in the 1st amendment that lets certain groups be selective about speech.

Hypocrites everywhere.

Murka has free speech. It's just that some speech is more free than other speech.

Expressions that call for extermination of Jews or of Israelis, as even normal 3rd graders should understand, is not Free Speech. Phrases like "From the River to the Sea" are widely understood chants meaning extermination of Jews. Many of these same hate merchants also deny the atrocities of the Holocaust, 9/11 and 10/7.

1:31 is laughable. See first comment above. YOU are morally bankrupt.

Anonymous said...

It just shouldn't be that damn hard to take a stand that calling for genocide is bad. Would it violate a policy against harassment? Who knows. That would be for a disciplinary committee to decide.

But damn, at least go on record and say that calling for genocide is unacceptable in a civilized society, at the risk of alienating some fanatical kook with a checkbook.

It's all just a show. The Congresswoman is making a show as a politician for votes. The university presidents are saying what they have to say to follow the law. They could have done a better job explaining their point, which was presumably the speech has to be directed at someone in particular to be considered a violation of the policy.

all 3 are Woke supporters

@4:24pm - I must’ve missed the morality amendment in the constitution. What’s moral and what’s legal aren’t always the same. Read a book or two.

@9:33am explains the situation well.

@9:35 shows up with the predictable “woke” comment with nothing else to offer.

Anonymous said...

It's called "political theater" and those presidents stepped right into it. Students at a university make all kinds of controversial and sometimes stupid statements. That's what a university is all about. Learning and exchange of ideas. Even bad ideas. Holding the university liable for the statements of students who are not employees is damn questionable. The presidents did not articulate that policy like they should have. The congresswoman set an old fashioned trap and they fell in.

Anonymous said...

@10:37am - Yep. If anything they should be fired for not being prepared to properly answer and rebut the Trump stooge.

If students attack a group, based on their religion, that is a problem. If these universities can't seem to grasp that, then they are approving this problem. Fire them all. When the teachers decide to join in and attack students based on their religion, fire them too.

Anonymous said...

@8:26am - I’m glad you agree with what the three university presidents were saying, that if conduct (attacks) occur, then obviously there would be consequences.

Anonymous said...

@8:51 pm - that is NOT what the university presidents said. Please plug in to a video and listen to them for yourself.

@9:22am - I guess we were listening to two different congressional hearings because that’s exactly what they were saying. Unless you don’t understand words.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
