What is going on at universities?

[image deleted]
I don’t know what’s going on at our universities with students demanding ‘safe spaces’ so they don’t have to meet ideas which might challenge their own pre-conceived crackpot ideas. We’ve even had professors forced out for stating scientific fact rather than PC rubbish by these morons. Universities should be places where we are free to exchange ideas and ultimate places of free speech. If you can’t take that university should be no place for you!

Safe spaces are generally like in clubs and therapy and shit, not in class rooms. You're brainwashed.

@SW-User we really should ditch this scene girl, we can do better

Also I'm bored
Just another slogan repeater. If I want to hear repeats I'll u know buy a parrot

I think you are the slogan repeated like a parrot. Typical of you sort. You have no argument and so you always blame the other person. This is exactly what I’m talking about and you prove my argument@Alison

@Grvstu I worked at a university up until a year ago.

Then why is the University of Sussex campaigned to have a professor removed?@SW-User

@Grvstu The uni. didn't, it didn't support Kathleen Stock as much as it should but it was largely academics from outside and students who bullied her.
See this Guardian article https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/nov/03/kathleen-stock-says-she-quit-university-post-over-medieval-ostracism and the recent Woman's Hour interview.

You don’t believe the Guardian? 🤣@ninalanyon
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@Grvstu I believe what it says in this article because it accords with what I heard Kathleen Stock say in the Woman's Hour interview.
Grvstu · 70-79, F
Well she left because she couldn’t take anymore according to an interview in the spectator@ninalanyon
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@Grvstu It says pretty much the same in the Guardian.
Grvstu · 70-79, F
As I have said I have no problem with people having different opinions but it’s when people are hounded and bullied out that it becomes most alarming. @ninalanyon
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@Grvstu Of course. Who said otherwise?
Grvstu · 70-79, F
Well there are plenty of students appear to believe otherwise@ninalanyon
