    There is no free-speech entitlement to speak at a commencement. The issue here is how best to maintain campus security and safety, period,” Guzman wrote.

    Sooo, what's that quote about those who would trade liberty for security again?

      I'm sure removing one of the "four boxes of liberty" isn't dangerous to society at all. Liberals are trying to remove three out of four and only keep the vote ing box

      soap box

      jury box

      Next up is ammo box

    Liberal academics love to pretend they're better and 'more enlightened' than everyone else, but they'll be the first to fall in behind the State Department line

      Academics is just swallowing imperialist talking points from the dominator culture and getting a piece of paper saying you're better than the poors.

    Wait, I thought we were constitutionally entitled to speak at college campuses and cancel culture was against our core western values. Lawl.

    Man, they're really circling the wagons. I would never support trump or any Republican, but the case for the Democrats being the more dangerous party is starting to become clear. They have the media apparatus on their side when they're in power and they launder the nastiest, most vile shit during times like this. The media is almost the fourth branch of government, and when the Dems control the presidency and the media, this is what we get.

    The campus group Trojans for Israel also posted on its Instagram account, calling for Folt’s “reconsideration” of Tabassum for what it described as her “antisemitic and anti-Zionist rhetoric.” The group said Tabassum’s Instagram bio linked to a page that called Zionism a “racist settler-colonial ideology.”

    I'm surprised to learn that USC has an actual school attached to it. I thought they were just a football team.

    But in all seriousness, this isn't the least bit surprising—a massively outsized portion of USC's faculty are Zionists. The school is in the news every few years when the staff put out some pearl clutching open letter denouncing a random student for saying that genocide in Palestine is bad.

    Holy shit that statement from them is so fucking slimy. They're desperately avoiding to say the quiet part out loud and it's exhausting to even attempt to read it

    She took a minor in 'resisting genocide' and the school admin got upset when she wanted to apply what she learned. Just beyond parody.

    Really random, but she’s really photogenic. I thought her picture was a stock photo to protect her real identity lol.
