It's very important that none of us share her name. Not even in "awareness" of what has been done to her. Not in sharing images of her doxxing. She's Jane Doe unless *she* chooses not to be. Then, we pursue vengeance against all rapists & their enablers until none of them are fucking left.

What happened at Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc is beyond disturbing. A masked group arrived on the Nation’s land displaying hateful signs targeting the children who never came home from residential schools. There must be a full investigation to hold those responsible accountable.

By my count, the during the tenure of the current Cornell president, students were expelled for protesting a genocide, an extremely violent sexual assault was dealt with by apology essays, and he ran over a student's foot. Neat. Never, ever send me a alumni fundraising email. Never.

It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."
​A screenshot of an online article headline from "Inspecting Gender" by Genspect. The main heading reads: "Germany: A Glimmer of Hope for Sex Realists?" Below the title, the summary text asks: "Is the victory of the AfD in Germany a dark day for democracy or a glimmer of hope for sex realists? By David Allison." The bottom metadata displays the Genspect logo, "5 hours ago," and a "Listen" audio option button. In the top right corner, there is a teal "Subscribe" button alongside a circular profile avatar.

If children had any political power, instead of being treated like property, we wouldn't be in such a mess. Exhibit A: Attacks on Critical Race Theory started in schools as "parents' rights" and book bans-- within 7 years, this morphed into an anti-DEI purge of adults in workplaces and academia.

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.

Children's rights must move forward as a cause. All of these evils perpetrated today harm children more than anyone. Children can't vote or advocate for themselves politically, so adults must rise up and do it for them. They are losing everything, can't fully comprehend this, and can't fight back

Campus rape is really widespread; statistics suggest a significant percent of women who go to college will be raped there; feminism opened up a good conversation about it around 2012-13; it's weird when people treated Cornell like an isolated rather than dramatic example of a pervasive problem.

This is my take as well. If you create a car that spontaneously accelerates because of how it’s designed, nobody says the car went rogue. You, who designed and sold the car, are on the hook. It’s not everybody else’s problem. Can’t keep it from spontaneously accelerating? Don’t sell it.
