Let’s see. So she was offended by having to learn something new about a culture she is clearly ignorant about from a perspective that differs from hers. She said offensive things. So she is basically saying that she shouldn’t have to hear or see things from other perspectives and if people are offended by her voicing her opinions, too bad? If I’m learning about obesity and its causes at university in a class with overweight people and decide to tell them that I think people are fat because they eat too much McDonald’s and then am removed from that class for being offensive and not even trying to learn something new, can I sue the university for not letting me speak my mind? I don’t hate fat people, I just wanted to say what I thought about them, so it’s fine. It’s just my opinion. If I called that young woman a horse-faced, thin-lipped, frail and barren-looking bag of bones who looks like she will probably go on to call the cops on a black person for walking too close to her, is that okay? Because all white people who look like her do those things, in my opinion. Or would that somehow be different than what she did? Can I sue anyone who tells me that what I said is wrong and they don’t want me to be a part of their organization because of my offensive stances? Or is that different? I mean I am totally fine with horsey looking white women. I just think they’re all [deleted]. But that doesn’t mean they should feel weird about having me around. We can all just respect each others’ right to free speech.

On one hand, really happy to see organizations like this get hit with financial penalties.

On another…not a fan of giving more money to lawyers.

Robert wrote: “She didn’t say anything racist, she merely disagreed with the leftist agenda of the movie they saw. But since ‘one black teammate’ was offended and determined without challenge that she was racist, the coaches decided they had to blackball her.”

Wait, wait, wait. Wasn’t Kylee offended by the left-wing political film she was required to watch? Why wasn’t the teammate the racist? Wasn’t her reaction merely the result of her having been triggered by this film? What happened to her right to a “safe” learning environment? Why do her political beliefs have to align with her coaches and teammates, and why should hers have to change rather than theirs?

It all seems so … so one sided. Is this a case of a majority oppressing a minority?

“She said coaches and administrators later told her she did not fit in with the culture…”

Therefore, these same coaches and administrators would be perfectly OK if a mainly-straight company fired a so-called “trans” employee because he/she/it “did not fit in with the culture”?

No prizes for the correct answer.

Whatever happened to the ACLU? I can remember when they backed a NAZI right to march in heavily Jewish Skokie, Illinois. Free speech and the right to believe what you wanted is a cornerstone of American democracy. The ACLU appears to have turned their backs on significant parts of the Bill of Rights. Is American classical liberalism dead?

It’s sad that people have to resort to getting lawyers and courts involved, but it seems to be the only thing that can get these bigoted Karens to back off. I hope Miss McLaughlin makes them squeal like little piggies.
