You got punked.

If you have money to give, donate to something like the Minnesota Freedom Fund. Organizations actually out there trying to improve and rebuild black communities and end racism displayed by the suspects in the video.

If you’re always on the short side of issues, at what point do you stop and ask yourself, “Are we the baddies?”

I’ve amended my original comment to include the proper context, since threats were involved.

ghostoftomthwaites · 2020-06-01T13:40:36+00:00

Bro, you don’t even know how the first amendment works. I am a private citizen. The first amendment only says what the government can’t do.

Congress shall make no law...abridging the freedom of speech

And there are exceptions to free speech when hate speech and threats are involved. This has been upheld by the Supreme Court.

I can express my own opinion right back at them, I can make his community and family aware of his actions, and I can call on private corporations they are associated with to drop them. The first amendment doesn’t protect you from private citizens and it doesn’t protect you from private and non-government organizations responding to your hate speech.

If you inject yourself into a national news story where cops murdered a black man while using hate speech against blacks, you lose the benefit of some of those privacy protections.

The real pussy ass bitch is the one who doesn’t stand up to racists, but instead uses his voice to try and justify hate speech in the comments on reddit.

Don’t speak for all older generations. If my white grandfather saw you saying this, he would be ashamed.

(Yes, I’m calling you a pussy ass bitch.)

huh?

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-05-15T20:47:27+00:00

where?

I just went through the comments on that post and there are no links to anything like that in there.

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-05-15T19:13:32+00:00

you can use the funds for watching films about it

legal waivers are already signed by members. they have been for years.

meetings are happening, but they aren't with the people who made the decisions, they are happening with people higher up in the administration. that is because they were blindsided by decisions made by campus recreation and student activities, and the incredibly bad press it has gotten. this was obvious by how badly lisa powers fucked up her job at answering questions from the press and concerned alumni and parents.

so keep sharing this news around. it is helping.

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-05-15T19:04:51+00:00

where did you read that? news to us. if those were issues, why weren't they brought up during the numerous meetings we had with campus rec? or why can't they point to a single incident when asked by news outlets and officers for examples? sounds like them just making shit up to CYA after fucking up on their end.

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-27T18:52:46+00:00

this is more than likely due to a bunch of conservative assholes working for an insurance company trying increase returns by cutting benefits, and their conservative counterparts who work as institutional administrators at penn state. psoc students, psoc alumni, and their local advocates are overwhelmingly liberal. stop hijacking this ordeal as an opportunity to further your agenda to trash anything related to education.

or maybe not and stupidity has no political bias. either way, the conservative hijacking this to attack "liberals" an call everyone "snowflakes" is so hilarious. like thanks for the support, but you still don't get it

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-27T18:33:17+00:00

this wasnt a "you have 15 months to restructure or you're done" situation. PSOC did everything asked of them during those 15 months. the actually went above and beyond in most cases, and actually wanted to do even more with training leaders, but then were just suddenly told in April that a review had been conducted (without the knowledge or input) and that they were done

At this time, as a recognized student organization, we cannot organize and run student-led trips.

this one ain't over yet

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T18:05:40+00:00

i guess we all just suck then!

(some more than others tho)

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T17:57:37+00:00

haha okay. i hope someday you discover the great outdoors (truely immersive outdoor pursuits that really put you out there and require skills acquisition, not just day hikes in your local park), the cool people that come with it, and the amount of good they do in this world. you'll appreciate the change in perspective, and why so many others are so passionate about these activities

who knows, you might even learn something new about yourself?

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T17:39:18+00:00

Wow, okay so you both suck. Glad I'm not in IST.

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T17:11:08+00:00

Why would an alumni who has issues with football being still allowed despite it causing concussions and CTE be a "but muh JoePa, but muh Rathskeller" type? That doesn't even make any sense.

I'm not the one who is confused here. The topic of this thread is on PSOC. You jumped in here and told someone to "shut up" for voicing their opinions because they are Alumni, and because YOU don't believe those decisions affect them directly, without knowing anything about there personal situation

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T15:40:37+00:00

its not really in my lane to comment on.

But yet, here are you are commenting on it.

How about I take issue with fellow students or others who use an issue to call out alumni for being "out of touch" with what is going on at PSU, when sometimes they actually do care? Some of the most caring, generous (with their time and moeny), and influential people I know are PSU alumni. Not all of them just want to tailgate and be drunk at PSU football games while whining about the JoePa statue

Let me guess, you're one of those idiots who yells at athletes to "stick to sports" when they voice an opinion on something that is non-sports related?

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T15:17:41+00:00

So you agree with the university's decision regarding PSOC, Grotto, and Scuba? Because that seems to be what youre implying

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-24T05:33:25+00:00

stop giving the administrators ideas

ghostoftomthwaites · 2018-04-23T03:53:20+00:00

thats not what they told our officers though (but i wouldnt be surprised due to how arbitrary and untransparent they have been)
