Goldsmiths University Diversity officer facing sack

[belboid]

Maybe they were scared of being attacked by this tool and her stupid acolytes?

lol.

 

[belboid]

The percentage of students that would need to vote for a recall is set at such a level that its to all intents and purposes impossible to remove her by that method, when you consider how totally disengaged most students are.

I dont think you can point to the lack of interest by most of the student body as evidence that she enjoys their support, or that her behaviour is somehow ok.

I dont. I use it as evidence that they dont give a shit. 3% is pretty tiny, 300 students. If they cant manage that, then it is clearly a massive fuss over nothing.

lol.

Is the best you have? Why bother bellend?

because you're a misogynist prick, not worth engaging with.

Are you going to explain how you leaped to that bizarre conclusion?

Odd that after all these years, you decide now that the popularity of a position is what gives it authority.

10/15 years of reading his posts

eh? Where have I dont that? I have repeatedly says that all it shows is that the bast majority of students dont give a shit

 

[killer b]

And therefore its a 'fuss over nothing'

that appears to be their view, yes

Do you think it is a fuss over nothing or do you, like me, think that a diversity officer should be held to higher standards?

 

[belboid]

I think it's an absurd fuss over nothing, built up by idiots and bigots

 

[killer b]

them's your choices lads, you're with us or you're an idiot or a bigot. probably both.

So a male Tweeting stuff like that in the official capacity of a diversity officer would also be acceptable? I believe in diversity and equality. i think that is where you and me differ somewhat.

where did you get 3% from btw? I read it was a third of the student body earlier in the year.

"a motion of no confidence fell short of the 3% of union members required to trigger a poll."
#killallwhitemen row: charges dropped against student diversity officer (amongst others)

lol. I would have no problem with a man tweeting #killallwhitemen, no. And I don't believe there is one person who would be genuinely threatened by it. Nor by the original offense of asking white men not to go to an event intended for minority ethnic women

wouldn't call it an offence myself.

How about a male diversity officer tweeting #killallwhitewomen

probably go down a treat in some quarters

It might be better face to face, we might like each other.

Come on, whatever you think of her that's clearly not the same is it? The context is totally different.

Personally I do not think a diversity officer should be using an official Twitter account to Tweet about killing anyone but maybe that is just me. Maybe I have the wrong idea about what the role of a diversity officer is.

I am sure this was all done up the thread. I have never intention of doing it all again. Except to say if you can't see any difference then that's your problem.

Stranger things have happened!

 

[DrRingDing]

Wasn't this tweeted from her personal account and tweeted not in the capacity of being a diversity officer?

The most pertinent question this raises is not a petulant, off the cuff remark aimed at a certain audience but the mixing of online personas.

 

[Ole]

She's obviously an absolute weapon, so it would've been funny if she was sacked. But it's also quite obvious that the petition/complaint as put on change.org was out of order.

he'd be quite obviously 'trolling' as she was too.... change 'kill' to 'rape' and it would probably generate a much bigger shit storm

students do seem to have a knack for doing ridiculous things like this though - on one side there is the various 'lads' 'banter' - every year some sports (usually rugby) team at some university will generate some press headlines because they've said or done something ridiculously stupid - often something derogatory towards women

on the other side we've got this campaigner who has gone way too far and essentially resorted to a mirroring the sort of bigotry she is supposed to be opposed to
