Snort. Inclusion. Trying to help my son get a job among all these places flying rainbow flags...

He's just got to play along. Sadly, this is not a good time to challenge the mania.

It'll burn itself out as it's not even representing the people and groups that it claims to be.

My son has disabilities. Somehow "inclusive" isn't extended to these

Search telegram for "ada rights discussion".

You might be able to get pointers on how he can assert ADA to protect him.

Thank you, but I am in Canada. Still figuring out how this all works as he is a "new" legal adult!

Great podcast and guest as usual Mickey Z. I feel you Scott Gerber.

Let me introduce you to Dr. Julie Ponesse through her tweet today:

"Struggling to feel hopeful these days?

As James Baldwin told Margaret Mead in 1970, “We’ve got to be as clear-headed about human beings as possible, because we are still each other’s only hope.”"

Julie was dismissed from her 20 year Huron College, Western University position as an ethics professor because her ethics suddenly didn't align with the new emerging paradigm at the time.

Thanks, this is going to be a tough battle, Prof. Gerber needs all the help he can get. Unfortunately universities are good at spending student tuition dollars on litigation, and know most don’t have the finances to do battle with them. Appreciate your show and everyone who is standing up to this nonsense.

I hear you. These massive institutions have resources but they are not invulnerable. Let's speak it into existence that more people than we realize are outraged and ready to risk speaking up.

Universities have turned against their very purpose; instead of being safe havens for free discourse, they have become safe spaces for those who oppose the freedom of thought. The statement often attributed to Voltaire, “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it,” is now ridiculed. In its place we have the credo of the 21st century: “If your opinion contradicts mine, it is hate speech, and I will have you jailed.”
