Those kinds of people shouldn’t be teachers.

I think she's a pretty fair teacher on her topics. She's not pro-antifa or anything and she covers he topics fairly well. She's far from apolitical but i don't think there is anything wrong with that. College is about encountering people who disagree with you

(I don't mean to sound defensive of her or offended, I'm not)

I don’t know your teacher so I’ll take your word for it but I’m really wary of anyone who takes the far left seriously.

Are you wary of anyone who takes the far-right seriously?

Don't you think its important to be presented with a diversity of opinions, some of them absurd but seriously defended when in college?

I’m wary of both. I don’t think you should shut down extreme views but also be careful to not cross the line of indoctrination.

extreme views on either side have issues..

Idk, there are some 'extreme' views that I like. (I'm partial to minarchism).

extremeism is generally bad, "only sith deal in absolutes"

I think there are plenty of far-right and left views that are worth being exposed to and engaging with.

extreme views are generally centrist views, just to the extreme...

@CreativeRealms i take the far left seriously

our federal government literally shut down and far left progressives are taking over major institutions all over the world at an alarming rate

so like

there are clearly risks

I take them seriously in that way yes. As in they are a serious danger.

i'm not a reactionary in the sense that join a group simply to oppose another party's views

because often it's mis-applied like universitites and their excessive nitpicking of themself despite not having the problems they describe like racism against minorities and rape

Sexual violence on campus is definitely a real problem.

compared to what

Compared to sexual violence off campus

citation?

Err this is the awkward part, I actually useds to generate the statistics at my campus.

everything i've seen shows that physical violence is lower on campus along with pretty much every crime

But i can't present them or discuss them intimately because of legal stuff

I can't speak to that.

All i can say with relative certainty, is that on my campus (and i've heard this is normal) the number of reported sexual incidents on surveys is much higher than normal. it depends on a lot of things of course, how do you define sexual violence/rape, what counts as on campus and so on

But what is unequivocally clear is that college-aged girls who actually attend university are very much at risk of victimization

That said, the 1 in 5 statistic is laughably hyperbolic

well to make a proper comparison you have to look at the methods you apply on campus to the surrounding city and break it down to the type of incident

for example many include drunk sex

I've never seen a study that included sex while intoxicated

And i've read a number of them

in detroit, the crime rate of the Wayne State university area is a LOT lower than the surrounding city

Well that's obvious

But you have to consider how often sexual violence goes unreported

for both sides

And that crime is a much broader category than sexual violence

?

For both sides???

for the university and the surrounding area
