People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

an “inherent power” to respond to an “imminent” attack is just a license for aggressive war on the president’s whim

The anti-Semitic mass shooting in Australia will cause a national conversation and policy change. We know this because the 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to significant restrictions on guns. The shooting at Brown will do nothing. We know this because it occurred on the anniversary of Sandy Hook.

12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔 A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice. Both Jewish & Muslim faiths teach that “to save one life is to save all humanity.” Let us hold fast to our humanity.❤️

Sometimes I think white peoples obsession with rewhitening media is a form of self-soothing, like sucking your thumb. if all the lantern jawed manly white men and submissive blonde thin women return, things will be okay again and the world won’t be so scary again. Sometimes it’s just racism.

Turning Point at OU posted this girl's essay in full and man is it rough
Samantha's Essay
This article was very thought provoking and caused me to thoroughly
evaluate the idea of gender and the role it plays in our society. The
article discussed peers using teasing as a way to enforce gender
norms. I do not necessarilv see this as a problem. God made male and
female and made us differently from each other on purpose and for a
purpose. God is very intentional with what He makes, and I believe
trying to change that would only do more harm. Gender roles and
tendencies should not be considered "stereotypes". Women naturally
want to do womanly things because God created us with those
womanly desires in our hearts. The same goes for men. God created
men in the image of His courage and strength, and He created women
in the image of His beauty. He intentionally created women
differently than men and we should live our lives with that in mind.

It is frustrating to me when I read articles like this and discussion
posts from my classmates of so many people trying to conform to the
same mundane opinion, so they do not step on people's toes. I think
that is a cowardly and insincere way to live. It is important to use the
freedom of speech we have been given in this country, and I
personally believe that eliminating gender in our society would be
detrimental, as it pulls us farther from God's original plan for humans.
It is perfectly normal for kids to follow gender "stereotypes" because
that is how God made us. The reason so many girls want to feel
womanly and care for others in a motherly way is not because they
feel pressured to fit into social norms. It is because God created and
chose them to reflect His beauty and His compassion in that way. In
Genesis, God says that it is not good for man to be alone, so He

created a helper for man (which is a woman). Many people assume the
word "helper" in this context to be condescending and offensive to
women. However, the original word in Hebrew is "ezer kenegdo" and that directly translates to "helper equal to". Additionally, God
describes Himself in the Bible using "ezer kenegdo",
≥ or "helper", and
He describes His Holy Spirit as our Helper as well. This shows the
importance God places on the role of the helper (women's roles). God
does not view women as less significant than men. He created us with
such intentionally and care and He made women in his image of being
a helper, and in the image of His beauty. If leaning into that role
means I am "following gender stereotypes" then I am happy to be
following a stereotype that aligns with the gifts and abilities God gave
me as a woman.
TPUSA OUSamantha's Essay
I do not think men and women are pressured to be more masculine or
feminine. I strongly disagree with the idea from the article that
encouraging acceptance of diverse gender expressions could improve
students' confidence. Society pushing the lie that there are multiple
genders and everyone should be whatever they want to be is demonic
and severely harms American youth. I do not want kids to be teased or
bullied in school. However, pushing the lie that everyone has their
own truth and everyone can do whatever they want and be whoever
they want is not biblical whatsoever. The Bible says that our lives are
not our own but that our lives and bodies belong to the Lord for His
glory. I live my life based on this truth and firmly believe that there
would be less gender issues and insecurities in children if they were.
raised knowing that they do not belong to themselves, but they belong

OU has put the professor here on administrative leave:
The University of Oklahoma takes seriously concerns involving First Amendment rights, certainly including religious freedoms. Upon receiving notice from the student on the grading of an assignment, the University immediately began a full review of the situation and has acted swiftly to address the matter.
First, the college acted immediately to address the academic issue raised by the student. College leaders contacted her on the day her letter was received and have maintained regular communication throughout the process. As previously stated, a formal grade appeals process was conducted. The process resulted in steps to ensure no academic harm to the student from the graded assignments.
Second, the student reported filing a claim of illegal discrimination based on religious beliefs to the appropriate university office. OU has a clear process for reviewing such claims and it has been activated.
The graduate student instructor has been placed on administrative leave pending the finalization of this process. To ensure fairness in the process, a full-time professor is serving as the course instructor for the remainder of the semester.
OU remains firmly committed to fairness, respect and protecting every student's right to express sincerely held religious beliefs.

Syllabi must be fed into AI to be checked for content not aligned with approved syllabi; students will be encouraged to report faculty  for inaccurate content; and young people are now being told they get to decide what a professor should teach.
