Basically white folks continuing to kill. All-time leaders in causing death.
It’s act of war, silly. On the other hand, raising kids by a single mom is the worst form of parenting. Kids without dad grow up fking around and becoming criminals, and the tradition will continue to pass on to the next generation. AA won’t fix problems until there is some cultural change in yourselves.
Call it an act of war and the murder of hundreds of thousands of innocent people is magically erased

The same number of civilian casualties would have occurred if the tens of thousands of rockets launched from Gaza into Israel weren't stopped by the iron dome.
Sorry that Israel just has a better military than Gaza.

It says so much about the pointlessness of internet debate that these posts, on page 22 of a thread ostensibly about the Harvard president’s PhD thesis “plagiarism scandal,” mention neither the Harvard president, nor plagiarism, nor PhD theses, nor scandals. People have so many grievances—and those grievances are entangled so thoroughly in a political identity—that to talk about one thing is to talk about them all. The reactionaries on the right are especially prone to rhetorical drift because they are so intellectually bereft and so they hop from point to unconnected point hoping for traction, but it’s clear that the progressives on this board aren’t doing much or any better. It’s fascinating.

Gay's plagiarism has been proven. Some here, like the Harvard board, are more wedded to far left identity politics than objective reality. So the discussion moved on to other topics, only tangentially related.
Pointless? Eh, kinda. But probing for ANY intellectual honesty on the left and finding none is worth exposing.

I mean the topic of Claudine Gay is at the intersection of several political debates - DEI hiring and the Israel-Gaza debate - so it's not surprising to see conversation veer off from the original topic. Newname likes to spend all his time spreading misinformation so I at least like to attempt to derail his screeds with some actual facts once in a while.
As for Gay, I think the "plagiarism" accusations are weak but she shouldn't have her job because of her inability to speak out against calls for genocide on her campus shows a degree of moral bankruptcy that is dangerous for someone in her position to have. While I wasn't there to see the other list of applicants, Harvard's DEI initiatives also fairly put her qualifications into question on whether or not she received her position fairly.
Clear plagiarism by 1995 standards, with 1998 standards even more stringent
SMOKING GUN: I've obtained Harvard's rules on plagiarism from 1995, which applied to Claudine Gay while she was writing her Ph.D. thesis. The rules are clear: Gay committed plagiarism and should have been "required to withdraw from the College for at least two semesters." pic.twitter.com/Kucg172wwc
I bring this up and harp on it because I'm a racist and misogynist, and I'm mad and can't stand seeing a black woman in a place of prominence while I'm such a pathetic loser, posting from my basement on a running message board.

Also I think my wife is cheating on me :(
Whenever people write something akin to this, it is vitally important to recognize that the writer does not actually care about "a black woman in a place of prominence".
What is implicit in their writing, 100% of the time, is "a black woman in a place of prominencethat shares my identical belief system". Their thought process is "if my token negroes there exists a person of the right gender and skin color that disagrees with my belief system, well then they're just an Uncle Tom."
