And saying "Police Matter" is trolling and mocking people, as well as being 'racist'?

The complainants must be majoring in Advanced Stupidity, well on their way to getting their Doctorates.

it wasn't an inflammatory slogan.

Being offended to the point of freaking out like an idiot in public is a level of fragility that indicates such people should deal with their brokenness before going into public.

Further if it's a multicultural space then such things should be permitted because that is a culture unless you're going to admit multiculturalism is false which I'll accept that too
so what. The First Amendment exists to protect precisely this and we're talking about a State University.

Let us not pretend that the two white kids weren't there ready for trouble. They were inviting it. They aren't stupid. We aren't stupid.

The stupid ones are the people who gave in to their trolling.

There is a way to handle trolls and they failed.

Good so you've established nobody is stupid despite me never claiming anybody was.

Pointless point noted I guess.

I wouldn't call imagining you are being trolled stupid just emotionally broken.

Right pretend they don't exist because most likely they don't. Most people in the world don't care about you

If someone had a "meat is murder" sign at a barbeque convention, it'd be less problematic than this, because that's a less politically fraught issue.

so as long as people who dislike something act like a jackass then we should acquiesce to the jackasses because they make things that shouldn't be into issues?

So what you're saying to me is I should start being a jackass to people in order to have the issues I believe in taken seriously.
No one told anyone to get out because they were white, and you shouldn't either.

the point is telling someone they can't have an opinion or can't voice an opinion because they belong to a culture in a multicultural center is hypocritical millionth power.

I read that article, and I think you're inferring something they didn't imply.

I watch the video I heard what they said.

You can spin this to your heart's delight to where it's okay in your head but you're just justifying segregation. There's no way you can Divine some special underlining meaning to suggest they said anything different than what they said.

How should they have handled those two?

Know what I would like to see? Elijah Badger and Geordon Porter

to walk in, calmly each pick up one of these boys, chair and all, and carry them into the hall and close the doors.

I can understand why the girls were frustrated; after a lot of effort to have a designated space where they don't have to worry about race baiting aholes, in these two walk, all cocky and playing games. It was a lack of respect on their part for the room and its purpose, and thempeople in it. Little cockawhoops!

I'm not a POC, so I don't know how I'd feel about that sticker or tshirt, but it's too bad she turned it into a white thing instead of a respect thing. To be multicultural, it has to welcome everyone, as long as they're respectful of each other's sensibilities. Doesn't it?

Males take such a long time to grow up.

Maybe you should familiarize yourself with the definitions of segregation, and fascism are for that matter, before you start mindlessly tossing them around.

Nope, the motive behind Blue Lives Matters was to troll Black Lives Matters.

Most of the time someone starts a thread like this using material like that, it turns out that the allegedly victimized MAGAs went somewhere to deliberately provoke a reaction so that they could cry victim.

At any rate, this describes much more of whatever this is.

White students ‘kicked out’ of diversity space

Footage has gone viral of a confrontation between two black female students telling two white male students to leave a room at Arizona State University (ASU) over a “racist” sticker.
www.news.com.au www.news.com.au

At the end of the day, I just can't get myself worked up about some white kids who decided it'd be hilarious to troll others in this subsection of a building, were asked to leave, and voluntarily left (not until crying victim, of course).


1,400,000 violent crimes a year in this country; 14,000ish homicides (2020 being the exception). And...uh..nothingburgers like this.

Well, there's another vote for segregation. Too bad the cultist mindset doesn't allow people to address the topic at hand.

Good point. I know quite a few black people that migrated from Africa. They seem to have various ties to tribal cultures that are quite different.

Oh so, we're supposed to bow down to yours? Your posts demonstrate that you obviously have no understanding of the definitions of those terms.

But they also have common experience of facing racism as a result of the color of their skin and this. can create a type of bonding based on "blackness"

So?

So you're admitting now that it really had nothing to do with protecting police, but rather it's true purpose was to troll Black Lives Matters. Okay then, glad you cleared that up for us.

White people come from all different cultures and ethnicity. Different places, different religions, different values, language and traditions. White is not a culture.

White ppl in the U.S. have different languages? Maybe in 1910 they did. Only White ppl have different values and traditions? So do black people and Hispanic people. They come from different countries and have different traditions too.

You're assuming that someone was acting like a jackass, and secondly that this shouldn't have been made into an issue.

Actually, depending on the audience, being a jackass can get things done - but it tends to cause some level of harm at the same time, so I dislike it.
If my reading of the article is correct, there was a disagreement over whether "white culture" is actually a culture - IMO it isn't, since there are many different cultures whose denizens identify as or are known as "white". I don't think anyone told the two who were told to leave that they couldn't have or voice an opinion, just that they couldn't display that particular opinion (the sticker) in that area.

I haven't watched the video.
I have no idea what you're talking about with segregation - this incident isn't even on the same metaphorical continent as segregation.

1. Yes, the two male Caucasians were arrogant in sitting down in that center while bearing those signs about the cops & Biden.

2. If they did not understand how offensive they were being, they do not have enough intelligence to be at the university.

3. That is supposedly a safe zone for people of all ethnicities who believe that they will be comfortable there.

a. At some universities, a dorm floor is reserved for African Americans, another floor for gays, etc. Those exclusive zones give comfort, their residents knowing that they will be safe from verbal or physical assault.

i. Personally, I think such safe zones are wonderful. I wish everyone could live in a safe zone. E.g., some countries have subway cars reserved only for women.

4. Maybe that is the future that we need for this country. All groups will have their own safe zone. That's a win-win situation.

That's friggin stupid. A future full of timid snowflakes who all need a safe zone. Do you hear yourself? Why is the future seen as some dystopia where humans cant get along with each other?
