That’s not why his key card got revoked. He teaches at a different Columbia campus I think and also said he was bringing in non-Columbia people
What’s up with defense/tech companies taking names from Lord of the Rings. Palantir? Come on
So a prof from another campus is not allowed, but all the protestors shutting the place down are just fine. Sure, no problem.That’s not why his key card got revoked. He teaches at a different Columbia campus I think and also said he was bringing in non-Columbia people
Yes, because they’re students and have access to their campusSo a prof from another campus is not allowed, but all the protestors shutting the place down are just fine. Sure, no problem.
Least I've never been an alcoholicIvy League schools are largely cesspools. Sad what has happened.
Alex Karp is a ****ing clownThe CEO of a company that exists to create next gen ai powered surveillance products and it's young people who are "breathing the vapor of a self-destructive religion". Lolololol
the ****ing irony is wild.
If you think all the protestors on Columbia's campus are students, I'm not sure you are capable of adult discussions.Yes, because they’re students and have access to their campus
That professor will never have to work again.That is some crazy ass shit right there. The leaders at that university should be fired and publicly vilified.
Maybe @areeves is right. Maybe we are all on the verge of being rounded up into FEMA camps.
Based on published tuition prices, we estimate the current cost of a 4 year bachelor's degree and living expenses at Columbia University in the City of New York to be $344,388 - assuming graduation in normal time.
The system is broken.
To me, worrying about students protesting a war that the United States isn't even involved in is pretty low on my priority list.

I have no time for anti-intellectualism, but anti-anti-radicalism is weird and feckless. People care about stuff like this on campus in part because American college campuses are still American. Lots of people are shocked that there are this many people who, in addition to the run of the mill anti-Israel and Arabist people, are pro-Hamas and anti-Semitic, and that they’re able to take over an American Ivy campus… in NYC. And all do this is a reaction to Israel defending itself after one of the worst terrorist attacks in history, perpetrated by the government of Gaza.Least I've never been an alcoholic
Strange dude for sure. Bit of a drama queen. He’s been successful. Always feel like he’s overselling whenever I hear him. Not really an opinion uniquely his, though.Alex Karp is a ****ing clown
That’s definitely the only problem here….Assuming you’re completely divested of PLTR, LMT, GD, NOC, RTX, BA, CYBR, LHX, HII, CRWD, PANW, etc.?The CEO of a company that exists to create next gen ai powered surveillance products and it's young people who are "breathing the vapor of a self-destructive religion".

Kind of what I figured…I'm not divested from anything, and have held PLTR almost since ipo.
His words still ring hollow and should be ignored...
They just discovered a mass grave outside of a hospital filled with women, children, and doctors. They had zip tied hands and were shot execution style. They have discovered over 300 bodies with 400 people still missing.I have no time for anti-intellectualism, but anti-anti-radicalism is weird and feckless.

Let’s also not pretend that today’s campus radicalism doesn’t frequently turn into tomorrow’s commonplace or dominant culture. I don’t think many people would’ve predicted that far left critical theory and feminism would become the law of the land and de rigueur in many places of business 20 years ago.
I went to an Ivy League for grad school, and it was a truly shocking experience. Thank god I went there as a largely fully formed adult (28 years old) with my own experiences and opinions. If I hadn’t, I absolutely would’ve been turned into one of those left-brain wackjobs. It was truly appalling how skewed everything was presented.Ivy League schools are largely cesspools. Sad what has happened.
Yeah university tuition is out of control, thanks in large part to admin and their bloated salariesBased on published tuition prices, we estimate the current cost of a 4 year bachelor's degree and living expenses at Columbia University in the City of New York to be $344,388 - assuming graduation in normal time.

Ostrich much?To me, worrying about students protesting a war that the United States isn't even involved in is pretty low on my priority list.
Yeah, feminism is clearly the source of our problems today. Let’s go back to the good old days when women couldn’t vote and their suffrage was a “radical” idea.I have no time for anti-intellectualism, but anti-anti-radicalism is weird and feckless.

Link? Other than Al-jazeera.They just discovered a mass grave outside of a hospital filled with women, children, and doctors. They had zip tied hands and were shot execution style. They have discovered over 300 bodies with 400 people still missing.
The idea these student protestors are pro Hamas and anti semitic is absurd. They celebrated a Passover Seder at the protest last night and many of the protesters are Jewish
It’s not clear who killed those people specifically.They just discovered a mass grave outside of a hospital filled with women, children, and doctors. They had zip tied hands and were shot execution style. They have discovered over 300 bodies with 400 people still missing.

Expel the ones stirring up trouble.Ivy League schools are largely cesspools. Sad what has happened.
Israel can be bit as violent as Hamas.They just discovered a mass grave outside of a hospital filled with women, children, and doctors. They had zip tied hands and were shot execution style. They have discovered over 300 bodies with 400 people still missing.

I know what he was referring to. Going to need some more reliably sourced material than the initial report, though.
This doesn’t indicate who killed them, but this is what he’s referring to.
There are more graphic pictures and videos I won’t put here
Israel can be significantly more violent. There’s a stratospheric difference in capabilities. That said, doesn’t seem likely this was Israel seeing as how there were Israelis (former hostages) among the dead.
