Ghent Univ. is firmly committed to viewpoint diversity and academic freedom. The emphasis of the investigation, however, is on opinions/actions infringing on laws and the safety of others, e.g. the advocacy of "coercive paternalistic measures against the less intelligent", racial profiling etc.

Mr Cfnas said that he will become the head of "Eugenics and Race Science at Harvard after the revolution". In his words, the joke being not the effort to mainstream non-scientific theories rejected by specialists like @wiringthebrain.bsky.social, but his becoming the head of that department.

People need to know that Ghent university is not considering investigating Mr. Cfnas because he acted as a whistleblower, but because of propounding ideas that are potentially in breach of the university's ethical code of conduct.

Trump said the U.S. needs Venezuela’s oil and warned of more strikes. He accused Colombia’s leader of enabling the drug trade, said Cuba’s “days are numbered,” and urged Mexico to act against cartels. He also claimed Greenland is vital to U.S. security. “This is our hemisphere.”

Vous saviez reconnaître une « quenelle » comme un geste antisemite et fasciste quand c’était Dieudonné et ses potes qui le faisaient. Vous pouvez reconnaître un salut nazi, surtout quand il s’accompagne d’un discours nazi et de mesures fascistes.
