the university has a right
No, the university has an obligation to comply with laws that forbid groups that would try to disrupt some students’ experiences for bigoted reasons. They do not have the right to pick and choose when they honor that obligation.
Once we get grammar squared away, a social studies lesson on how laws like Title IX protections against sex discrimination have been enforced on colleges and universities for the last several decades is also in order
Nah, taxpayer funded institutions shouldn’t just be able to say any group they don’t like is inappropriate and ban them with zero process and University students do have a first amendment right to assemble themselves
This Republican group should be banned because they’re a discriminatory group of bigots who make the environment unsafe for other students and violate civil rights laws, but what this dipshit university (which let this nazi club carry on for years until they made headlines and is actually now just trying to make a new college Republicans chapter, which is a whole other 1st amendment violation) thinks is “appropriate” should have absolutely nothing to do with it
Any candidate for the 2028 Democratic presidential primary better be getting asked about pardoning all these people
Yep, and having seen all the ways for profit market based entities have screwed people over my entire life I think the only real answer to this problem of construction is a massive public works project. Housing healthcare education and public safety are all too important to be left up to markets.
Even if this exact version gets passed into law, courts are going to kill the ban on venture capital buying homes or the rich assholes will just find a loophole, and the slashing of regulations and subsidies just mean for profit developers are going to get paid taxpayer money to build barely affordable shit boxes that will fall apart in a few years
We need actual public housing and to tax the big investors out of existence
Unfortunately (almost) anything you do for a living becomes a chore even on the best days
“Plan to close doors in front of smouldering crater where barn once stood under consideration”
Be a Parent, help your kids succeed and stop blaming everyone else for not doing your job for you.
When people stop understanding child care and education is everyone’s job societies collapse
Majorites have supported stricter gun laws for a while now but our government doesn’t care what we want
Furthermore, Miguez’s campaign responded to the Guardian’s list of questions about the police report by providing a 24 February email sent by the accuser’s father to the state senator’s office, which had the sentence: “Everything my daughter has reported about you were lies and she is a liar and has a drug problem.”
The email doesn’t elaborate on precisely how the author knows his daughter told lies, and he didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. But Miguez’s campaign said in a statement: “The woman’s father gave permission to share this email with you.”
This is like the most abuser coded series of actions and statements short of actually assaulting someone I can imagine
Average American: “That won’t stop me because I can’t read! [Trump approval rating continues going lower].”
I found folding chairs for $30 each just now without even trying, there is absolutely no justifying $1000 on a damn chair
Closer to 30% these days and it’s still falling
Even 40% doesn’t win a two way race (which almost all American elections are) without voter suppression
Masturbating I get, becoming addicted to something you enjoy I get, using a third party app to try to break your addiction seems dumb but I get how desperation can make you dumb
What I absolutely can’t get is what anyone could productively do with this data. Like, I don’t even think blackmailing someone with this could work. The worst you could say about someone with it is that they had a porn habit they didn’t like and were trying to change it, and anyone rational is just gonna say “I don’t see what’s the big deal with watching porn, but good on you for attempting some kind of self improvement I guess.”
Voter suppression, media environment where the leaders of video game companies and movie studios push stories about grizzled American soldiers disregarding human rights and basic decency for the greater good, voter suppression, news media that mindlessly regurgitates Pentagon propaganda, voter suppression, attacks on public education, and voter suppression
Oh, did I mention voter suppression? Because I really feel like it doesn’t get talked about enough
Quit thinking like a Republican, you can’t just blindly punish your way out of every problem. You want journalists who can get information on what the guy with the gun pointed at your head to be able to report that information.
OK, well that ain’t Newsom. He may win the primary if we’re unlucky but there’s no way he’s winning the general without turning out the whole Democratic party, and this transphobic nonsense he chose to engage in has made sure that won’t happen.
Fortunately, there’s still plenty of time to rally around a different nominee
Green and Menefee will go to a runoff in May. Green swatted away questions about the age factor on Wednesday, declaring, “I am generational change.”
Yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and say when you find yourself paraphrasing mother fucking Emperor Palpatine it’s time to stop being a senator
You have the right to remain silent but we’re still having this conversation because rights are something you get to choose when you exercise and when you waive. The university’s board of trustees or whatever governing entity they have should not get to choose, they should just be reading the law and following it to the best of their ability.
