1. It's baffling how the RW whines about being victimized by the left. Last week we had the bitter tears of @bariweiss ' self-expulsion (?). No matter how you look at it, none of them have any reason to complain.
2. Before that we had the "perfomatics" like @jordanbpeterson and @CHSommers : they would accept invitations to speak at places where the local students promised to meet their reactionary speech with protest.
3. Instead of acting like professors (and I am one so I know), reaching out to the students and trying to negotiate a productive conversation, they decided to confront the students. Meanwhile, they whined on the Internet about how oppressed they were by the left.
4. C'mon, we're not stupid: if you are not welcome at all, just don't go. It's very simple. You don't get to accuse the people who didn't want to talk to you of not talking to you.
5. Brooks and Weiss are insulting in their pathetic victimizing discourse: they have a well paid position and a platform in one of the biggest news outlet in the world. Thousands, hundreds of thousands of much better writers are freelancers with no predictable income now.
6. That insults me.
