The president of Cornell:

Brian Phillips@brianphillips.lol · 5mo ago

The president of Cornell backed his car into a student and a recent grad after a campus debate on Israel-Palestine. Then he lied about what happened in an email claiming he'd been the victim of harassment. Then, magnificently, Cornell's student newspaper found a video of the incident

This seems significant. To whom is violence permitted.

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Trump and my Republican colleagues are okay with immigration detention because these private, for-profit detention facilities are cutting chucks to their campaigns. It’s time to shut them down and end this cruelty and corruption.

Seth sez truth: Red states adore the CONFEDERACY but lecture the rest of us on patriotism.

Seth Abramson@sethabramson.bsky.social · 5mo ago

(THREAD) Let me reframe this. Blue states FUND red states as red states say that it is BLUE STATES that live off others. Blue states adhere to the CONSTITUTION as red states CLAIM to love it but undermine it at every turn. Red states adore the CONFEDERACY but lecture the rest of us on patriotism.
