Can we talk about the IRONY that campus sexual assault is dealt with through laborious internal processes, a surfeit of "due process," and overwhelming fear of Type I error, whereas peaceful protests apparently warrant immediate external policing?
The haters said I couldn’t do it. And they were correct. Honestly great call from the haters
Perfectly put!! Yet much work in the Humanities has been to emphasise 'agency', 'hidden power' and 'covert subversion' rather than patriarchal oppression.

"The fact of the matter is that the distinction that the anti-choice movement seeks to make, between 'life-saving' abortions and merely 'health-saving' ones, is empirically impossible to determine." @MoiraDonegan is exactly right. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Stanford students have set up tents. I’ll say here what I’ve said to admins responsible for deciding how the university responds: The university must avoid mistakes of our peers. Bar must be extremely high for involving a violent arm of the state known for escalating conflict.
Love to tweet about the rapid, sadistic, and demoralizing decline in women’s rights and status and immediately—as if to illustrate my point—be bombarded with AI-generated pornography.

One thing about me is that I notice every little gesture or comment anyone says that trivializes rape. I don’t always say something but I never forget it.
And then Kagan went “Sounds bad.”
There is no way to try assault in the perfectly sterile "objective" environment the legal system pretends to aspire to when so many people believe sexual abuse is deserved or not real or just wholly unimportant. And the court absolutely knows that.

Let’s be very clear: this is an insult to survivors. One of the most important ways we care for survivors is by holding their rapists accountable, by not insulting survivors or trivializing rape with the spectacle of rapists’ impunity.

The technology sector is profiting from services and products that cause mass social harm, including violence against women and children. The only effective response to this scale of harm is regulation. Peer intervention, workshops, etc will never be enough.

Stanford students sustained a Gaza solidarity encampment on campus for 112 days before the admin tore it down in February. Now, students have staked out a second Gaza encampment, building off new momentum and remaining totally undeterred by Stanford’s ban on such protests.
Oh you thought you were going to *fold* the clean laundry? No.
Been interesting to see how some news orgs will write up bad but clearly unserious past comments made by young student protesters but not scrutinize the words (or explicit actions!) of actually powerful people with the ability to start/stop wars to nearly the same extent.
maybe it’s a necessary phase in the final collapse of contradictions that have held for a long time. sure is unnerving though
