Uncertainty is inherently unsustainable. Eventually, everything either is or isn't.

It’s actually super frustrating how shaming is looked down upon in academia, where they should know better.

Even in my gender studies class, the super feminist professor was against public shaming as a deterrent against bigoted behaviors.

It was one of the weirdest things to have an incredibly liberal teacher and class all agree that it’s inappropriate to be mean to straight up white supremacists, and we should be reaching out with kindness only.

Although this was a year before the 2016 election. The ensuing 2 years of open fascism may have changed her stance on coddling Nazis.

This guy's daughter died at Stoneman Douglas, and when Trump did jack poo poo about gun control, he licked his boots and praised him about not doing anything to stop more children like his daughter getting shot.

Dude is a loving mess, prioritizing his love of the Great Orange One and guns over his dead loving daughter

He's the father of a Parkland victim. He was full on MAGA before and has been a full on MAGA poster boy ever since then presented as the "silent majority" to counter the Parkland kids.

I mean if we lock down schools so they're like court houses or prisons that probably would all but eliminate school shootings.

That being said it is, after a few seconds of thought, an absolutely asinine position that would never actually work in reality and would be hell for the kids trying to learn and socialize in that environment.

"After consulting with legal experts Brett Kavanaugh, Rudy Guiliani, and Dennis Denison, I have concluded that I am not legally obligated to recuse myself. Furthermore, everything Trump's tweets is now law, the Democratic party is outlawed, and Marbury VS Madison is unconstitutional."

Help me, I'm sympathizing with chuds. I kind of feel for the guy because there had probably been a horde of right wing people putting a pressure cooker on him because they smelled a chance to get a victim on their sides, even if it is just one dude.

nah this guy sucks. The same can be said about Kyle Kashuv who was a Parkland survivor but went the opposite route of the other kids and is borderline a loving Ben Shapiro clone right down to the "FACTS NOT FEELINGS" rhetoric. it's unfortunate that kid's brain got broken but they can't all be winners I guess

He suffered a tragedy and is almost certainly still grieving and people took advantage of his grief for their own political goals. Its totally good to sympathize and see him as a victim in that.

But he's also responsible for his own actions and was a MAGA guy before his daughter died. So like, he can be a victim AND an rear end in a top hat. People are complicated and our feelings towards them can be complicated too.
