    @LuFins-Dad said in Meanwhile, at Harvard...:

    @Jolly @Aqua-Letifer I think @jon-nyc was referring to the investment banker that said he wouldn’t hire and the lawyer that rescinded a job offer.

    So apparently that's the same as woke cancel culture?

    It's a non-zero amount of cancel culture, thus allowing for both sides are equalizing in perpetuity.

    “Both sides are equal” seems to be one of your favorite strawmen.

    Only non-witches get due process.

      I was commenting on both sides are equal arguments in the abstract, which usually depend on anecdote, and at that, the mere presence of one or more such anecdotes, rather than quantity. I wasn't actually accusing you of both sides are equalizing in this case per se. I'm sorry if you took it that way, and I hope you have a better rest of your day, apology in hand.

        Driven by someone from Accuracy in a Media, a conservative watchdog group, the truck displayed the names and photos of the Harvard students who’d signed the infamous pro-Hamas letter blaming Israel for Hamas’ weekend terror attack.

          Another reason to not go to Starbucks:

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  Can you get expelled or suspended for “misgendering” someone at Harvard?

                        That style of eyewear is known as "problem glasses". Pop culture can generate some excellent neologisms.

                                    When I was a kid, I heard stories of adults who never learned to read, and they always ordered a cheeseburger from restaurants, to hide the fact they couldn't read the menu. Now there are people like me who never learned how to find a meme quickly, who always write their posts in plain old words. We're the new illiterates.

                                          https://nypost.com/2023/10/13/brick-hurled-at-doxxing-truck-at-harvard/

                                          An enraged crowd near Harvard University hurled expletives – and a brick – at a “doxxing truck” circling the campus Friday morning to expose students who allegedly signed a letter blaming Israel for last weekend’s Hamas attack, The Post has learned.

                                          Adam Guillette – the president of the nonprofit news watchdog Accuracy in Media that deployed the vehicle – said the rowdy mob blocked the female driver of the digital billboard-bearing box truck and began “banging on the windows, shouting things at the driver.”

                                          “Once you get out of that truck I’m going to kick your f–king ass!'” one person allegedly yelled at the driver, Guillette exclusively told The Post.

                                          The next thing the driver heard was a brick hitting the vehicle as a security guard hired by Guillette rushed to the back of the truck.

                                          The guard found “a young white male in a hoodie (who)… put down the brick and ran,” said Guillette, adding it was the second-straight day the truck was vandalized.

                                          It’s unclear if the culprit was a student at the Ivy League school, which has come under fire for allowing antisemitism to fester in its hallowed halls in Cambridge, Mass.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
