In 1907, William James memorably wrote: "The trail of the human serpent is thus over everything." Nearly 120 years later, even most Leftists treat "money" + "markets" as something other than thoroughly social constructs. @videotroph.bsky.social's interventions today are as brilliant as were WJ's.

NYC-DSA’s statement on the Cornell 7
New York City DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS of America
STATEMENT ON THE CORNELL 7
Cornell University has failed in its obligation to protect its students. The conditions at Cornell are not unique; more than 1 in 5 women will be assaulted during their time in college. Title IX offices should be protecting the most vulnerable; instead they are designed to protect the university, prioritizing donor retention over student safety.New York City
DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS of America
From 2018 through 2024, Cornell University reported more than 1,200 incidents of sexual violence. From those incidents, only 7 people were expelled or dismissed. Lack of a response is a response - by refusing to hold perpetrators accountable, Cornell has implicitly endorsed rape on its campus and allowed perpetrators of gender based violence access to power without consequence. New York City
DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS of America
NYC-DSA commends Jane Doe's bravery and strength in pursuing justice, and the editors of the Cornell Sun in their rejection of inaction and silence.
We echo the demands of our comrades in Cornell YDSA, Cornell Grad Students United, and Students for Justice in Palestine at Cornell:
• Abolish all Intrafraternity Council (IFC) Greek Life at Cornell;
• Expel enrolled perpetrators, and revoke the degrees of those already graduated;
• And fire or require the resignation of Cornell Senior Administrators Michael Kotlikoff, Ryan Lombardi, Brian White, Robert Harrington, Kavita Bala, and Christinia Liang.Additionally, we advocate for State Senator Julia Salazar's Healthy and Safe Students Act, which would bring sex & consent education to our school systems - an approach that is already proven to reduce incidences of violence by as much as 60% - and would reimagine our cultural norms around consent and accountability.
