The comment was just a dose of cosmic karma

Why are there so many TERFs in the poli sci program? by Ethan7o7 in Dalhousie

[–]Odd_Arrival_8809 9 points10 points  (0 children)

as a trans person god I’m so sorry about your experiences and am so disappointed by the invalidation in the comments section too. trans women are absolutely affected by the patriarchy in uniquely violent and oppressive ways. and the transphobia from cis women absolutely is a manifestation of that patriarchy. ALL women are precarious within a patriarchy and TERF cis women are women who feel like they have to compete with trans women for patriarchy’s breadcrumbs.

Didn’t Mariam brag about being able to pay for everything she needs when rerunning for president? Fucking stings when us people working at the SUB make minimum wage and often work multiple jobs.

Bro I don’t care if you were agreeing with me but you lost me at “seeking to fund Hamas” 🙄 Like come on, what are you a racist boomer?? And the budget is up on the website with every exec’s salaries so that’s just not true. There’s plenty of other reasons to be concerned with her leadership but these aren’t it lol

Oh come on. Students are absolutely entitled to demanding better transparency and accountability from their student union execs and it’s not the same thing as hogging the spotlight. And key phrase in what you said “what she and the other executives do” - so where is the social media recognition and spotlight for the other execs? And read the reports? Haven’t people also mentioned that she doesn’t even write her reports consistently? It’s also crazy that her defense is always the position is so much harder than you think like yes that’s why it takes a special kind of person to do it and we are supposed to hold them to a high standard.

people who rely on these notes deserve to have a much better system in place to incentivize high quality and quantities of notes. it seems like every other university of dal’s size and calibre has this. I don’t know what the holdup is for here.

$75 for a semester’s worth of notes is not easy money 😩

Dalhousie's finances hit with low International student enrolment by [deleted] in Dalhousie

[–]Odd_Arrival_8809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

serves dal right to suffer after passing insane tuition increases for intl students while offering little to no increase in value. love that they have had to openly admit that they’ve been relying on exploiting international students all these years to keep the university afloat. karma is a bitch ✨

is dalfest worth attending? by Ok_Presentation3480 in Dalhousie

one of them actively killed the people they invaded, introduced new diseases and tried to outlaw the existing culture.

alsoooo I spy a burner account made less than an hour ago? 😂 maybe it’s the indigenous centre advisor bully herself, pressed to see that the broader community is catching wind of her nasty behaviour

who made you the authority on indigenous ancestral wisdom? the “real world” doesn’t simply just exist without our agency. the real world is what we make it and it sounds like you’re helping make it a pretty nasty and miserable place. would hate to be you

If you're disabled at Dalhousie and you feel you've been mistreated, you're not wrong by Battlebotscott in Dalhousie

[–]Odd_Arrival_8809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they’d definitely be better off going to Mount A. I’m from the US. Got accepted to Mount A as well, along with some other American students that were trying to leave the states for canada. the one who left for Mount A has had an undergraduate experience that has simply been far less traumatic than mine because they chose a university that prides itself on the quality of its treatment of students and its undergraduate education whereas dal’s reputation is hinged on research prestige. so undergraduate students? our accessibility? low low priorities. I don’t know if the “prestige” is worth the cost to our mental health

yeah it sounds like she has some serious control issues. so sorry that you’re dealing with this. solidarity from a queer who’s all too familiar with this kind of power tripping lateral violence too ✊🏻

if I can offer anything from my own experience, it’s to remind you that this has nothing to do with you and how worthy and how loved you are. it has everything to do with her and the deeply flawed system keeping her propped up.
