This 2018 music video uses the Chinese filler word "that/the" (那个 nèige) ≥200 times, evidence of @USC's lack of due diligence in removing #GregPatton for using the word as a teaching example. #academicFreedom (Start at 1:02.)

.@USCMarshall actually harmed #DiversityandInclusion by terrifying professors into thinking they'll get in trouble for saying anything about different cultures.

Yesterday posted a blog re case of #GregPatton at #USC. Simultaneously I realize @TheAtlantic has just published a superb piece by @conor64 on same subject. May I humbly suggest you read both?
Mine focuses on a misconception re #psychologicalsafety

@x3nome @NMalarksist @JeromeTaylor He was teaching COMMUNICATIONS . I’m a linguist. When I teach I always use words from other languages to illustrate my points.
You know, it’s people like the Black students who filed a complaint against #GregPatton that make our real work against racism, a joke.
@_meccavelli The behold the African country & river whose name no American dares speak🤣 Seriously, it is not a matter of sensitivity, it is a matter of common sense. The rest of the world does not revolve around American sensibilities or the tonality of the English language #GregPatton
When I lived on the mainland I had a hard using 那个 but got over it in time- Investigation into US professor sparks debate over Chinese word https://t.co/QC1fTS4zP8 #那个 #nword #mandarin #GregPatton #censorship #swjs #CancelCulture #usc
There are no black people who would be offended by that. I don't buy the validity of the letter or that a black student even wrote it. #GregPatton needs to be restored his position and apologised to.
@homeslicedice I agree. @USC could have taken the lead and educated the students instead. They could have also chosen to back #GregPatton. Instead they've turned a wonderful teaching opportunity about cultural and language differences into a farce.
Legitimate Chinese word used as a filler word when speaking — which is precisely what Prof. #GregPatton was explaining.
@USC @USCMarshall — this is WRONG. I don’t care who was offended; it’s not their place to be offended by another country’s language.

Un professeur a été suspendu pour avoir prononcé des mots en chinois qui ressemble trop au NWord.

USC professor #GregPatton suspended after students were offended by his use of the Chinese word for "that" (nèi ge).
😐
(Turn sound on for video)
@daplai @garrett_geoff u need to support #GregPatton & not hide behind the current racism in your society. I stand 100% for equality of all races he is accurate in his explanation. I’m 23 yrs in China married 17yrs to my Chinese wife & it’s used like this everyday they need to grow up!
@USC How about you reinstate #GregPatton’s job after a sensitive student FALSELY reported a “racial slur” which turns out a a Chinese word?! Are languages racist now?? 🤦🏽♂️
@Yair_Rosenberg @USC thought y'all were academics not strippers but it seems you bend over whenever the crowd demands it. Your response is worse than those who called for action against #gregpatton . In pretending to be "woke" you've just called multiple Asian languages offensive
Sign the petition to reinstate #GregPatton

@USC Evidently Professor Patton’s class exactly what the school needs because you all have a lot of learning to do before you try to censor another language. God forbid this world not be centered around English
There is nothing for the university to investigate: Greg Patton should be restored to his teaching position immediately. If anything, the offended students should apologize to *him* for causing the inconvenience.

The whole thing is ridiculous, i feel so so so sorry for the professor. Also，just let y'all know. The phrase “What's up” sounds like F*ck in Chinese. So～doesn it mean I can start calling everyone sexaholic since people say this a lot🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄？？#nage #GregPatton #USC
The suspension of USC’s Professor Greg Patton for speaking legit Chinese in class is absolutely ridiculous. I’ve watched the tape.
