Reply to comment by Hilarias_Glucose_Cup in Dartmouth cancels live event due to fear of protesters by Hilarias_Glucose_Cup
I see your point but lets take it a step further, what is your remedy? Force a private institution to hold an event? That seems like a bad precedent.

No, I understand that the college can pretty much do what they want when it comes to on campus events. I guess I'd say in this case, given how close it was to the event that the college should have stayed the course, added some extra security and then saw how it went. I suspect it would have been a big nothing burger as the show is really more about internet bullshit and the impact that cancel culture has on people who have been subjected to it. They are pretty vocal about trans issues but they are more in the Bill Maher school versus coming from a right wing or hateful perspective. Hell one of the hosts is a lesbian van lifer. If that is not enough street cred for coming to Dartmouth, I dont know what is.
