Student editor fired from university for saying "women don't have penises"

But they don't have penises. They have vaginas.

They have vaginas.
 
Not being dismissive of the TS or anyone else in this thread, but at this point I don't really give a fuck. This guy chose to leave Cyprus and go to the United Cuckdom and then he chose to tweet that out. He knew, or should have known, what would happen. If you've got the balls to say it or do it, then you've got the balls to deal with the consequences.
 
It would really come down to the code of conduct he signed up for in these jobs wouldn't it? if transphobic comments were deemed a sackable offence that he's got nobody to blame but himself.

I mean yeah you do often get SJW types jumping down the throat of people for innocent comments or looking to shut down free speech but this guy obviously knew what he was saying and was working in a position that would clearly be sensitive to that.

This. Dude knew what was coming and did it anyway. Good for him. He's getting his name out there, I guess.
 
The penis is a social construct who's definition has been hijacked by hetero-normative cis-gendered white males to oppress strong independent women, LGBTQ's+, people of color, religious minorities, and mother earth, in an effort to uphold white supremacy.

That was ridiculous, but says more about predatory pay-to-publish journals than anything.

How in the fuck is what he said transphobic?
 
Well here’s my source that this person is correct

I mean, he's looking to provoke, and he succeeded. There's a lot of irony here though. He posted a link asking if it's a crime to say that women don't have penises, then was immediately punished, he's a leader in the free speech society, and had to step down for his speech. It approaches satire.

Looks like a perfectly interesting journal - http://dups-critique.com/issue-5-summer-2018/

Fair enough. I looked at some of the papers on offer and I can't say they are illegitimate or subversive in any way. They appear to be perfectly acceptable topics of discussions on the surface. I bookmarked your link and plan on reading a few when I can. The paper on "Orwellian Nationalism" caught my attention. But looking at the bio's for the three editors it's clear that whether or not they have subversive intentions, they're fields of study and personal outlooks have been thoroughly shaped by postmodernism and critical theory. Postmodernism and critical theory is now a feature not a bug in the social sciences and shapes views, philosophies, dialogue, discourse, nomenclature, terminology etc.

Well there is nothing inherently wrong with postmodernism anyway, of course that's not to say I fully support all of the critical theory stuff either. There was abd is a hell of a lot of bullshit. Postmodernism was extremely influential in the late 70s and through the 80s, of course it has left its mark academia. It isn't some bogeyman.

I have not read them either, I just looked at them there after seeing the journal name.

There is too much knowledge in the world for anyone to know everything. There are too many fields of study, thought, and philosophy for anyone to be an "expert" in a vast array of fields or ideas. Obviously, I'm no different. I don't claim to have a strong grasp of postmodernism. In the last few years it's a topic that has come up more and more so I have looked into it a bit. Admittedly, I began my investigation with a negative opinion of the influence of postmodernism. I didn't come across anything that changed my mind.

From the criticism of empiricism, to the view that truth and evidence are relative, to the monstrosity of deconstructivist architecture, the postmodernist concern with deconstruction amounts to little more than demoralization. Postmodernism attempts to create a straw man out of Western Civilization and criticize that straw man caricature until the West no longer has the will to defend itself and carry on. Just my view.

I don't claim there are no flaws to the West or room for criticism. But it's one thing to debate the merits and reality in the West to improve it and it's another to attack the West until it ceases to exist and sever all continuity of our civilization.
 
Dude is watching entirely different porn than me. Just sayin'.

Fair enough, there are some valid criticisms don't get me wrong. I will get back with a proper response later.

What that kid said is factually incorrect and not worthy of debate.

It's funny how a Kindergarden kid in a movie knows more about biology than you do.

Right. Because I was being serious. As opposed to obviously being facetious by quoting directly word for word what the retarded LGBTQ+ activist said in the article... :rolleyes:
