Harvard Rescinds Admission Over Student's Hate Speech

[Yoshingo]

This is wrong, he clearly denounced those statements and feels bad about them, i mean i guess harvard can do what they want since they are privately funded,

but u know what would really own these PC libs, is if we supported public funding of all educational institutes meaning they all had to follow Department of education guidelines, that would really own them!

I agree, we'll stick it to those disgusting bastions of liberal bias by making college funded for all!

[Ozyorkbourne]

It's sure interesting how conservatives are so upset about people facing consequences for saying "nigger" huh?

I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Context doesn't matter either. Prepare to be fired.

I laughed. I'm so glad we didn't have social media when I was a kid, I've said some dumb stuff and 100% meant it that shames me today.

They're pretty tame tbh. Most trash tier though.

I like consistency of some posters here.

Underage kid says racist stuff - "its good thing that school wont accept him ! He deserves it !"
Asian woman says racist stuff - "it was just jokes,get over it ! She should still get the job at NY Times !"

Ah yes the context of the posts that he lost his admission to.

You know, yelling "nigger" over and over in caps on a document. I'm sure glad we saw that context though because otherwise it might look like he was unnecessarily punished!

Much context.

Again, I sure love conservatives rushing to bitch about people getting in trouble for saying 'nigger.' Sure is a coincidence.

Saying things in private and public are very different things. The Asian from that is now an editor at the NYT also wasn't joking, again big difference.

Hey look at your whataboutism. I've seen you using it other threads, glad to see the pattern keeping up.

It could be a copy/paste message at this point lol.

It's also hilariously pathetic to see people try to use the context argument in this case when we actually see the document and he was just yelling it to yell it.

Pointing out hypocrisy is whataboutism?

All you do in any thread where conservatives are punished for being racist cunts, you show up and try to change the subject.

Literally. Every. Time.

We all know what you're doing.

How am I changing subject?

Why do you think that one of the examples I provided is ok and other is not? Are you hypocrite?

The real hilarious thing is a bunch of adults reading leaked private messages from teenagers and rushing to be offended. If you want to hold people to that standard than fine, but then every thing that everyone has ever said or written should be made public starting with you.

They aren't remotely the same situations.

It wasn't even 2 years ago. Not some lifetime ago. And the douche had the audacity to use the shooting as saying that he's changed his mind. Despite acting like the same conservative douchebag as he was back then.

Shockingly most people I know weren't screaming 'nigger' as 16 year olds. That excuse means jack shit.

How does one scream in a text chat?

Yeah they are not. One was done by dumb kid,other by dumb adult.

Keep on defending it.

It's funny to watch.

Thoughts and Prayers.

Not surprised people who dislike this are the same ones who quickly go to the past of some kid shot by the police. Yes, it is a case by case basis, yet the first thing they do is attack the person's past and some of that is when that person was a teenager.

What mark said, lefties just showing their commie trash roots , cheering for people being punished for wrong-think, or jokes, or things they said several years in the past.

I wonder if they will punish his kids for this too, like they did here in our socialist country when parents did something bad.

Has it ever occurred to you that it's different people saying these things?

Are you sure about that?

Btw whose burner account are you? Your newly made account jumped straight into Off Topic forum. Also you made this account in June and claim that you saw me using it (whataboutism) in other threads but I was banned in June until now. Tell us who you are

Schools have to be very careful on who they admit to their communities. Forgiveness is nice, but why put other students at risk for it.

Parkland Student Rejected by Harvard Asks Forgiveness for Racist Comments


Before the professional outrage machine gets going for Harvard rescinding 1 kid’s acceptance after discovering he made hateful comments online.
This has been Harvard's standard proceedure for years.
They’ve done it before. It’s not some new thing and he should be held to the same standard as the kids before him. 10 kids had admissions rescinded in before.

Harvard rescinds 10 offers to students who shared hateful memes in a private Facebook group chat

This really gives people incentive to clean their rooms, and clean up their hateful language.

I wonder how many offers Harvard rescinded to children of the wildly wealthy?

Don't get me wrong I think it's absolutely okay to refuse to take students who have demonstrated hateful/bigoted views but I have a strange feeling that perhaps it's one rule for some, and another for the others.

[psiko74]

hate speech isnt real

[Tumile]

Just how fracking hard it is to understand to do not post racist stuff if your job plan involve stuff other than gunstore or police department in the Deep South (with alternative career paths as a punk in the yard )

If you know Harvard/Google/McDonald will reject you if you post a picture of yourself in a hilarious ghost costume in front of flaming lower case t (on your Facebook account) why do so ?

Couldn't really find anything but that 1 silly screenshot of a blob of words and inflamatory language batween two teenage boys for shits and giggles, the fact that it wasn't the least bit funny does not speak about his personality, but just his lack of wit. but the title claims it was from before the "life changing event" aka the school shooting, and he claims to have changed since then. He was also 16 years old. so it was 2 years ago, which is a long ass time during teenage years. if that is no longer who he is (which i assume by them not being able to produce evidence that isn't 2 years old according to the article), then it is not Mr. Mini Trump that is the bigot, it is Harvard. But that is hardly surprising. at the end of the day it's their decision, they can do what they want.

Rich boy schools are for absolute retards and losers anyways, shrug, hes better off not going.
