Reply to comment by Hilarias_Glucose_Cup in Dartmouth cancels live event due to fear of protesters by Hilarias_Glucose_Cup

I'm sorry, is your position that colleges are coddled playpens or do you believe that every member of faculty at a prestigious university knows best? Pick a lane buddy.

This person isn't new to the game and has been repeated corrected by many people in their field.

I completely agree with you. Anyone who doesn’t want to support the truth should have their platforms taken away. It’s just wasting everyone’s time. We shouldn’t have to fund theories that don’t support the majority of agreed upon science either!

Your use of 'majority of agreed upon science' is a convincing argument that you don't understand science. Additionally, you are far less clever, ironic, or pointed than you think you are being. It's not about taking platforms away it's about not having to provide them to people who are bad faith actors. Much like your argument above, you aren't actually trying to think deeply about the issue but rather mock the very serious and complex question. Which... is basically what these stupid fucking content creators were looking to do. Whenever someone claims that they can't have an intelligent debate on campus they have always demonstrated resistance to seeing the other side's position, remained ignorant of the materials surrounding the issue, and really are just hoping to get cell phone footage that can be spun for 15 minutes on fox news and a little fawning over at CPAC next year.
