Religion is bizarre.
It's a hundred percent true that every protest movement involves violence and people who distract from the movement's message. Which is one reason every protest movement needs to anticipate having a response.
Pretty much every time someone sarcastically asks if free speech advocates will condemn something, it turns out the people they're trying to smear did, in fact, condemn it. Meanwhile the people asking have never once defended an ideological opponent in their lives

How could you look at current state of college campuses and think that doubling down on the *bias response team* ethos that so many of them have adopted for the last decade is going to lead to *less* dysfunction?

I’m a scholar of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and a longtime advocate for peace and for Palestinian rights. I have publicly opposed Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, and its blockade and now destruction of Gaza. I support the rights of students and faculty to peacefully…
@IonaItalia Yes more laws and more police is not the way to go. That said rules of tolerance and allowing speech and opinion to be diverse should be upheld. It's funny how they brought in rules of diversity that stamped on any independent thought and expression. Creatives did this!
No to this.
I've seen some posts along the lines of, "Gee, the free speech absolutists are awful quiet lately." So let me say for the record: I 💯 support the right of anti-Israel student demonstrators to assemble peacefully and express their views, no matter how ill-informed and…
Crucial for universities to keep defending the right of students to protest responsibly, while also dealing clearly and robustly with cases of real violence and unambiguously murderous speech. Without discipline, it's impossible to protect the rights of legitimate protesters.

Some of Harvey Weinstein's alleged victims wrote chummy messages to him afterwards. I can see how this seriously undermined their cases but, outside a court of law, it's easy to imagine why. He held so much power in Hollywood that if you didn't try to stay in his good graces,…

Left anarchism reinvents borders and police almost instantly. Right anarchism tends to likewise discover taxation from first principles.
On the one hand, this counterbalance to the catastrophising narrative is good. I can well believe that many protests are tame. On the other: "nothing much is going on at Princeton, therefore nothing much is going on anywhere" doesn't seem like a serious way of arguing.

@IonaItalia Worth asking why Princeton is different. (If it is in fact different).
@IonaItalia Man should not being with a married woman is in the old text, but notice the phrasing says nothing about a married man being with any woman he wants and that's cool even for the other woman. Sounds like whoever decided to put that cute little edit in had a confession.
@IonaItalia In the Talmud, Alexander the Great asks the sages of the Negev which distance is greater: from heaven to earth or from east to west? They repky: from east to west is greater: when the Sun is overhead, looking at it hurts the eyes, but not when is in the east or in the west.
@IonaItalia Agreed. The ADL can watch and report what they find. It isn't the governments job.
@IonaItalia I've definitely dropped a link to this video in people's mentions a few times.
@IonaItalia In fairness, there's a probable interpretation that this is religious hyperbole to stress the severity. Elsewhere we find a concession that the rabbinic Sages have no say in who merits the world to come.
Once someone has made up their mind, it's almost impossible to change it. No matter what information you present. Only thing that could move them is a personal experience. That's why we need to refrain from making up our minds too soon before we have all the details.
I implore people to read more than a para of "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" (the one about 'white moderates' and those who are more devoted to 'order than to justice'). That letter was an appeal to moderate (clergy), in which he also argued *against* black nationalist rhetoric.
I am an expert on the history of protest movements! Also, I have never read 'Letter from a Birmingham Jail' by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

I’d do it for 100k/yr. @Harvard let’s make history together.
You'd have to pay me like $80m a year to be the president of an Ivy League university.
Opinion: He's right. This won't help, will make things worse, and has a near 100% chance of being abused.
Some of my colleagues are introducing legislation to create federally sanctioned "antisemitism monitors" at colleges. I’ll vote No. Policing speech, religion, and assembly is not the role of the federal government. In fact it’s expressly prohibited by the U.S. Constitution.
After 37 years if my wife says "would you get my glasses out of my purse" I will look in obvious places but I still won't ransack it!
@IonaItalia I fucking hate those terrorist lovers, but I will protect their right to be stupid.
It's a hundred percent true that every protest movement involves violence and people who distract from the movement's message. Which is one reason every protest movement needs to anticipate having a response.
But I'll point out that every civil rights leader of the 20's knew they had to get rid of Marcus Garvey
And for the record I have no clue what the response should be it just seems like a problem you gotta anticipate and can't hand wave away.
This all seems very fair to most people until they see how the sausage gets made.
