I did my undergrad at ECU and after all the Bill Cosby stuff came out, every year when we played Temple, we'd all make giant signs that said "We don't need quaaludes to score" and bring them to the games lol. bet that wouldn't fly now

the very worst its been is during the kavanaugh hearings

even professors couldnt keep their mouth shut

the Kavanaugh stuff is fun to laugh at now tho cause even RBG says she likes him as a person

to be fair, RBG said the death penalty for rape is cruel and unusual punishment and a symbol of the patriarchy (lmao)

but yeah im tired of all of these allegations coming out only when their political career enters the national level

he was a judge and lawyer for decades

gets nominated to the Supreme Court, suddenly oh yeah i remember this one time

if we entertain these kinds of things without evidence, it incentivizes sudden allegations for every nominee

(thus why i dont buy the argument "just pick someone else less controversial")

"less controversial" just means "less likely to rule justly"

exactly

I hate Ralph Northem for a multitude of reasons, but ppl need to fuck off with the "he wore black face 60 years ago" nonsense. 60 years from now, ppl will look at photos of you from now and call you an idiot. context is important

I think thats more a double standard thing people are calling out

Conservatives dont care overly much about that past its more that if a conservative had done it theyd be donezo

dam what I do

man, I'm glad I'm in my 30's. I don't think I could survive in this world if I was 10 year younger lol

How come?

just looking at how life on campuses is now vs the ten years I was in school from 2001 to 2011

Oh. You get used to it. <:sweetsad:624681482337910794> im 23

the shit i did would have gotten me drawn and quartered now

I stick out like a sore thumb. First gen immigrant but a conservative. Married instead of single degenerate.

0 loans, getting through on merit

maybe I got lucky by being in pure academia and not in whatever BS general studies crap a lost of modern SJWs take

Unfortunately its pretty much everything at this point, although engineering is close to neutral

I had partial scholarships when I was an under grad, but graduated summa cum laude, so i was able to get full when I went to grad school

I havent paid a dime yet for education besides high school

nice

just make sure your degree isn't in "colonial racism" like my doctorate is lol

No kidding? Lmao

Im getting JD so im fine

How did you end up doing that?

I did a 5 year double bachelor program at ECU in Applied Maths and Physics, then got my masters and doctorate in Pure Maths at the University of Alabama (I'll stop for a second so you can laugh at how red my neck is), only to find out recently that math oppresses black kids apparently xD

So you have a math phd that somehow teaches about colonial racism

Amazing

math in general is apparently racist because of course it is

Youd think math would be the least tainted of all

But i guess not

Daily Mail had Spez in the headlines today. He was bashing Tiktok for using Chinese spyware. Hypocrite is owned by Chinese! I wonder how much $$$$ China paid DM for the Spez advertisement

That article blames whiteness for the specific students lack of initiative
