Free expression is core to the mission of higher education, however, the views she shared absolutely do not represent the values of the institution, nor the standards of discourse we seek to foster.“
Let’s see how that holds up in the future.

I give 'em 6 months tops before that gets real awkward.

I reluctantly am curious what Anya is referencing. Did Queen Elizabeth order the massacre of Nigerians or something? I know the UK control Nigeria for a while (like a hundred years ago), but guess what... as old as the world is, nations have always invaded/controlled other territories. It's still happening (see Russia and Ukraine).

It's obvious that she should have been fired for saying that. I would be. Let's hope a conservative member of staff tests their commitment to free speech real soon.

Yeah . . . unless "we do not condone" doesn't mean what we think it means.

Apparently, the great Sage Tucker Carlson has weighed in on this, saying the Queen was the last living link to a truly great Britain.
He should be fired too, for being a fuckwit.

She also blithely ignores the many genocidal campaigns we have seen within post-colonial Africa, and the child soldier and slaves we see to this day.
The idea that the Queen had any responsibility for atrocities that may have been committed by the British empire is asinine. She's a symbolic figure, and to wish a slow, agonizing death on her personally is not to attack the symbol, but the human being.
She's too stupid to be a professor if she doesn't get this.

Would be a fun spectacle to listen to a debate between John McWhorter, another black linguistics professor, and this moron.

That’s the result of the colonization, don’t you know.

He might be a (he), but he’s still a stupid twat

This professor kept her job. Another one, who keeps losing his, had this to say:
