the horrific cornell gang rape case has me thinking about emma sulkowicz who alleged she was raped as a student at columbia in 2014 and never got any justice. it has me thinking about the physical and mental weight young women are forced to carry while their safety is subsumed by male potential.

Last time, they blamed TheJews™️ via Soros for it as per “great replacement” dogma. Are we on point for this one too or is it someone else’s job this time (i hear trans kids and communists are running out of things to do to undermine western civilization, maybe they want a turn)?

Amid outcry, NY prosecutors have reopened the criminal investigation into the 7 Cornell gang rapists, a case that was covered up 2 years ago. These assholes would’ve been punished if they had written “free Palestine” instead of “free p*ssy.” Cornell leadership should be investigated too.

“When food prices go up because farm workers go missing, that’s the ICE Tax. When construction grinds to a halt because no one is left to build homes, that’s the ICE Tax. When our elders can’t get the care they deserve because their caretakers and nurses are gone, that’s the ICE Tax.” #EndtheICETax

The way to pressure any university is to go after the alums who donate. I keep seeing people post the President of Cornell’s phone #, that’s fruitless. Look 👀 up the donors, call the women and ask them to withhold donations until the university responds properly. Ask me how I know :)

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

I point out to everyone occasionally that the Electoral College is an anti-democratic party trick: President Trump defeated Kamala Harris by two million votes. He only won in Wisconsin by 30,000 votes; the majority whom split the ticket between him and Tammy Baldwin.
