Gotta love the tolerance!

Probably should be for being a dick, but I would imagine he is protected by Kansas law to be able to express his opinions. Even if they're rude and hyperbolic.


In saying what he said, heā€™s doing exactly what he sees his political opponents doing. Iā€™m sure his tenure will protect him, but he canā€™t deny that he made a fascist statement. And that makes him no better or worse than those that he opposes.
 
Nuance- get some.

He's not saying men who don't vote for Kamala should be shot as the OP's tweet implies.

He's saying men who won't vote for a female candidate because she is a female should be shot. Is a hyperbolic, inappropriate statement-Yes. I would venture that he's implying sexist members of society aren't good citizens and are part of the problem and not the solution.

But hey MAGAS! At least he's pro-gun. Aren't you the guys that want teachers armed?

FYI tenure means nothing these days. You aren't protected anymore. It's a complaint of many university professors.

Good thing MAGA defense can be used
 
Bit of a joke, but even still what he is trying to make a point is how many on the right do not understand the implications. And that you have bigots and racists out there that will refuse to vote for a candidate because of their gender or race. He should be reprimanded but lets be clear, is there people in here defending racists and bigots? Is that what I am seeing Arbor and Goldmom?

Trump talked about killing someone and getting away with it. Said it was a joke. Didn't seem to harm him.

Trump has stated wants to go gestapo style door to door looking for immigrants. Where is the tolerance, really?
 
What a jackass. People like this are so far gone off the rails and consumed by politics that theyā€™re no longer worth the time it takes to listen to their idiocy.

Again he is saying bigots and racists opinions are not worth his time and those opinions should be gone. He isn't legitimately saying they should all be killed.

So just to paraphrase this, he is going after people who are racists and bigots. Stating due to their intolerance, in his opinion the world would be better off if they were shot. Likely similar opinions these racists and bigots have of the class of people they dislike. But we will go after him for not having tolerance for intolerant people. Really????? That is the level of education, and tolerance on the right.

Kansas law doesn't say his employer can't enforce consequences for his words. Not sure why this is so hard for people to understand.

Yeah, nothing says tolerance like threatening to shoot people you deem racist. You really are a special kind of stupid. And by special I mean dangerously so.

Ordinary people the world over would convey their beliefs in a far more civilized manner. This is a common problem with people that get deep into politics. They believe theyā€™re entrenched in a war of good and evil. It leads them to say deeply regretful things and makes otherwise intelligent people orders of magnitude dumber.

I don't think tenure would have anything to do with it. Around 2018-2022 many states, especially red ones, passed sweeping protections for free speech on public campuses. Your or my judgment of his character has nothing to do with my post.

Anything to justify the actions of people on your political side. Pretty standard for MAGAs and BlueAnon types.

Do they have a safe platform like him in which to indoctrinate his students on a daily basis with the power of a grade hanging over the heads of their audience?

You're ignoring the political climate of the last few decades. Ordinary people have been lining up behind bombastic fire-breathers in growing numbers. To hold a single professor at KU to a higher standard than elected officials is weak.

How is he indoctrinating stating bigots and racism shouldn't be tolerated? Goldmom you have always defended women, always stated they should have the opportunity and ability to do whatever they want and can achieve. He was going after individuals who will never vote for a president based on a specific sex or race. There are individuals out there, specifically in your party who think women should not be president, they should be silent, they should only raise kids, and should abide by whatever the man of the house says. If you want to go back to 1950 be my guest. I would be ok with it LOL. My wife on the otherhand you would hear an earful.

If Nikki Haley was the Republican nominee I would be voting for her. But carry on.

No dude, we should always be better than MAGA

I don't disagree, which is why I said the guy should probably be fired for being an asshole. I do disagree with the conservative pearl clutches that see this and get bent put of shape, but cheer on other assholes "taking it to the libs". That is pathetically weak character and comes from an incredibly dishonest place.

There have always been ā€œbombastic fire breathersā€ as you describe of one sort or another throughout our history.
It struck me as interesting that none of the students guffawed at or booed at his statements.
Theyā€™ve been conditioned to just sit there and let him say his opinion.
 
That tweet is definitely intentional twisting those words a bit to make it seem even worse than it is, knowing that most people wonā€™t actually watch the video.

Had it been Nikki vs Biden, I would have gone Nikki. I think she has a level head on her shoulders. Actually talked to her a bit at the Iowa womens basketball game in late December early January. She sat right in front of me.

I think Nikki would have won by 10 points
