lynati:merrybandofmutants:krafteasymac:a college republican went crying to tucker carlson last night because some black classmates photoshopped his face onto a literal crackerYo this is my school!!! Okay let’s provide some backstory:So my school is v White but also v liberalAnyways we’re also a very academic/professional-driven institution so a lot (not all) of our students are taught about things like intersectionality, feminism, acceptance, etc through academic settings And this boy, Ryan Wolfe, apparently took an issue to that and he published his opinions in the student-run conservative review website Here are some of the topics he wrote on:- how to “survive” social justice - how intersectionality is fake- SJWs want the most oppressed people to be in power because they’re the most special - why the women’s march wasn’t inclusive (and why all the conservatives on campus were great for not causing riots when two of the leaders of the march came to campus)- how BLM is ruining public perception of police officers - “how to survive college as a conservative”- conservative professors speaking out about being outnumbered and the minorityAnyways, total fuckboySo back during the 2016 election season, the few conservatives we have on campus got together to host a panel about the future of the Republican Party and how it isn’t racist or whatever And this panel is made up of entirely white peopleSo someone (I forget who) started a joke comparing them all to saltinesAnd Wolfe (the saltine) went off on them on twitter doing the typical fuckboy thing and complaining about how safe spaces don’t exist and saying that the panel wouldn’t be a safe space for anyone (ironic, no?)And AFTER THE PANEL SOMEONE (her name’s Bri) JUST GOT UP AND HANDED THE GUY A BOX OF SALTINES WITH HIS FACE PHOTOSHOPPED ONTO THE CRACKERSAnd THIS BOI GOES AND TRIES TO COMPLAIN TO THE ADMINISTRATION ABOUT FEELING UNSAFE ON CAMPUS AND UNABLE TO EXPRESS HIS OPINIONS LIKE BOY WHAT DO YOU THINK A SAFE SPACE ISOur diversity and inclusion committee (also our committee for addressing prejudice-related harassment on campus) was like lol r u serious and he was like yeahSo they were like fine I guess we do technically have to do something if it’s harassment so they did the same thing they always do for smaller harassment cases on campus (two steps: 1) separating the students, 2) mediated meetings) the third step was the judicial case and the University was like nope we’ve already addressed your ridiculousness as much as we’re willing to sorry budAnd then he went and cried to Fox News and I got a text from my dad at 11:30 at night “racism at wake forest has gotten out of hand this is not acceptable” and I got to go down this rabbit hole of finding out about all this mess just like the rest of you and boy it gave me such a good laugh (Also people are now calling him “Cryan” instead of “Ryan” so if you want to get that going please do)Anyways for those of you wondering (like me) why this is just now coming out despite the fact that it happened a year and a half ago, it’s bc he’s graduating and wants a job as a journalist with Fox News so like laugh but also be v critical of the whole thing bc it’s very intentional on his partSo it would actually *help* him if we were to band together to get that image put on whatever billboards are visible from campus? Ah well; it’s still a fun thought. -- source link
