Yeah but it’s … bad the threshold for public concern is whether or not the person killed by state violence is white.

This is what happened in 2013 to a student whom I previously taught in elementary school. One of the most promising students I ever taught. It was so heartbreaking. I’m glad more people are watching the Cornell case, and I hope justice prevails.

I Stand With Willa, I Stand With Survivors
In the spring of 2013, Willa Murphy was violently raped by a fellow Georgetown student. It was such a traumatic experience that it took over a year after her rape before she was able to tell anyone…

The day after he raped me, lots of other football players sought me out & said "oh I hear you two got back together again" which we hadn't. It was just his way of covering his ass.

It never really left me, and I've been able to live a successful life. Nonetheless I'm still hit with waves of panic when certain things happen in my environment. I still live in Colorado and I know that recently when I looked them up. He's also in Colorado though not immediately nearby. 2

I'm 72. When I was 21, I was raped by a Colorado football player. We had gone out a couple times the year before, so I didn't even bother reporting him because in a big football town like Boulder, no one would have taken my side. I was lucky to have a very supportive family & circle of friends. 1

what is also often ignored is the genocide of the Herero and Nama ppl that germans committed in modern day Namibia just 30 or so years before WW 2, because they resisted german colonialism. germany used concentration camps there as well. germany still refuse to give back remains till this day.

This pathologizing of covid conscious ppl is disingenuous garbage of course. They always do the pathology thing when other ppl are being more responsible than them and they resent it. None of them actually cares about our mental health. That's not why they make these statements.

Every thinkpiece like this that I've seen about Geller is distinctly about the author's own comfort with the consumption of Jacob Geller Content above all else. Justice must protect the victim, but more importantly, it must allow for the continued creation of video essays about Nintendo Games

They love to use Zimbabwe as their poster child too. "Look what happened to the country once the BLACKS took over" Meanwhile they left nothing but systems of oppression, biological warfare, and an "economy" built on black death. Like fuck Mugabe forever, but I'm glad they chased them crackers out

Europe lunged on Africa in a brutal attack of total plunder & exploitation of all its resources even humans who it made into objects for sale as forced labor, chopping up the whole continent as colonies & forcing folks there to slave to extract goods, America's imperialism crushes when they revolt.

The same people who are centering trump alone as the cause of what happened to that survivor at that university would block me and call me maga and a bot when I remind them that just as many politicians with a D beside their names are and were rapists, too. Metoo predates Trumps first term!

Opportunitistic political Stan’s using any Cornell post to spam the comments with “Trump is the root of this problem” images is so disingenuous. You don’t give a damn about survivors, at all, if you are actually arguing that Trump alone invented the entire systemic issue that is rape culture.
