@hairybiscuit13@michaeljashmore@kyledcheney It wasn't part of his class, that's the problem. A sociopolitical rant on social media is still "public concern" no matter how unhinged/sour it is
It sounds like you just feel that the government should be able to more easily regulate speech based on how much it offends people.
@michaeljashmore@kyledcheney Not true for public employees speaking on matters of public concern as private citizens (i.e. not inherently related to their employment duties). Garcetti v. Ceballos, 547 U.S. 410, 411 (2006).
Also not that it matters legally for 1A issues, but he wasn't at-will. He was tenured
@vtdigger Unilever has let him say whatever he's wanted since he cashed out. I guess he thought he could force the company/shareholders to follow his orders as to where they sold ice cream (for purely ideological reasons). So he ragequits and says he was "censored." What an ass
@pro6lema@stereogum Again, it's not about "pushing boundaries" or his music being "too experimental." He just objectively sucks live. Always has.
His fans also feed off of his mental illness, which prevents him from responding to criticism. So he's stuck never improving as a live artist.
@zei_squirrel Who tf cares lol. Yeah, it's war. It's been happening in Myanmar and Darfur, with a much larger body count, for a much longer time.
You're being told to care about "Palestians," a demographic that was artificially invented in the 20th century.
The idea that Susan Brownmiller—or any random feminist academic who only other academics and ideologues know—had any impact on crime rates is definitely one of the takes of all time.
RIP Susan Brownmiller. Her brilliant 1975 book Against Our Will is, sadly, remembered for the claim that rape is a weapon used by all men to keep all women in their place, but that was a minor aside in a searing and beautifully written history of sexual assault. The book deserves some of the credit for the 75% reduction in rape since the early 1970s. https://t.co/JpEvvHa9e0
@atlblog Huh? Dershowitz is an ass but he's a hardcore constitutionalist. He regularly deviates from his wacky political takes because of his liberal interpretation of constitutional law.
