For anyone who really knows academia, this is fucking classic. “Morals you say? Well he’ll still have good thoughts.”
This is what’s wrong with universities.
Goddamn idiots with a PhD

Blatant corruption right under the noses of Americans who get poorer each and every day. Selling F35s to a country that launched 9/11 and slaughtered a WaPo journalist?
Soon America’s value will be zero in the eyes of every person on earth. Shameful

Just how fundamentally out of touch do you have to be to order staff who for 4 years managed to work effectively from home back to the office 5 days a week. He sounds like a Republican. A dumb one.

The part that gets me is the absolute hubris of this tiny majority believing they who represent a mere 15% of their party are right while 85% are wrong. In the face of a party that is nearly 100% united? When 7 million took to the streets in protest he still believes he know better!

The Australian conservatives, gotta admire their ability to render themselves obsolete.
Dollars to donuts they’ll blame the female leader when it blows up in their faces.

Why can’t they NYTimes find another ism to crack on about for a change? Why not have a crack at racism or despotism? No country gets a ‘free pass’ from criticism.

Fat chance British laws are not the same as US laws. All he’s doing is supporting the radical right wing’s assault on news media.

Elect me President and I’ll tax his entire fortune at 80% and fund healthcare immediately. He’d still have $200 billion so I’m sure he’d be fine.

This is just one more pointless hateful act from a government and court that is pretending the world doesn’t care about all people. They will look stupid in history’s rear-view mirror
