Dartmouth did not cancel the event. The attendees cancelled the event themselves.
This headline is BULLSHIT and was written for this purpose:
> it just ended up confirming what most of us know,
It sure does. Shitty liars lie about facts to push their agenda.
Also, Masterpiece may be lousy law, but it is LAW. A private institution is under no obligation to provide service (or space) to any individual. If your problem is that PRIVATE "colleges don't discuss" take it up with 5/9ths of the Supreme Court.

Report this dumb ass post for misinformation.

I love that I'm being reported for posting about the "Blocked and Reported" podcast 😂
HPenguinB t1_iui1ztu wrote
Oh, does that podcast lie like you do? Is that why it "gets blocked and reported?" Ho ho, so much for the tolerant left AMIRITE?!?!?1!!
Hilarias_Glucose_Cup OP t1_iuhsl7k wrote
Again, semantics. Also - the College can do what it wants. The point is, they wanted to host the event until they did not want to host the event. If no one had filed for a protest no one would have even known the event had happened as the podcast has been doing live events in various locations for the last month with zero incident aside from people having an enjoyable night out.

Your definition of semantics is weird. One might say 100% wrong.
habituallinestepper1 t1_iuhz7uq wrote
"Semantics" as a response to "YOU LIED" is a valid response for this loser because truth does not matter - service to the agenda matters.
In this case, the OP is getting the "I got cancelled!" tale OP desired. It'll get fed back to the podcast, the podcast might mention OP, and then OP will get a dopamine rush of social acceptance (and make a Randy Marsh-ian mess of his keyboard). It's all very sad when you understand the 'point' of these posts: validation and attention for a starveling.
OP ignores the law because OP isn't incelligent enough to even know what Masterpiece is or why "their side" wanted it. And it's garbage law. But it is the law and it makes this whole whiny spectacle even more pathetic. Even if what OP lies about were true, it'd still be what OP's allies wanted.
Fuck liars. Or something semantically similar.

It’s not just semantics. Your title is wrong. But, you are right that this event is ultimately being cancelled because academia is flooded with people who cannot handle opposing views on emotional topics.

Or perhaps they're tired of this attention seeking bullshit. You don't see Planned Parenthood complaining that the Catholic Church won't host their lecture series on safe sex and abortion access. College's have widely taken the position that they respect the science around this issue and will provide a campus where people are free from harassment and belittlement. Just because they aren't welcoming people into their homes to attack people who live there (yes colleges are literally homes for their students) they aren't saying the conversation can't be had, they're just saying 'this isn't going to be your forum today.'

"Attack". And there's the problem.

You've dismissed the core of what I said and focused on one thing which I will stand behind. When you go to someone's place of habitation to tell them that you don't respect them it is an attack.
I thought you were for discussion of complex and emotional issues as you don't see them occurring on campuses. Or perhaps you think you are but aren't exactly sure how to start? There are some fantastic courses at universities that could help you with that.

If I say I have the opinion that there are two genders (male and female), is that an attack on someone who says they identify as neither male nor female?
ccoyote1 t1_iui4q1i wrote
When you go to their home to do so in an attempt to stir shit and belittle them. Yes, it is. You see, context matters.

Lol. Adding giant assumptions apparently matters for you.
