Typical neoliberal ideology. Fucks sake these people would strip smoke alarms from homes if they could cos 99.9% of the time they aren't needed.

Yeah yeah very funny, have a thought for us poor brits will you? I'm heartbroken over the devestating news.

Just learnt we don't get a fucking bank holiday out of it.

Hey now, that's not fair. The US has produced some genuinely great music.

Gotham. Every single problem and every single villain is the direct result of capitalism. As a bonus the unintended meaning of the show is that capitalism's only response to this is brutal violence enacted either through the police or whatever that simply makes things even worse.

I'm sure there are a few men pretending on there but I have come across women before who genuinely hold these kinds of views. They're super rare for sure but let's face it so are incels and there's enough of them to form various communities.

One thing I've noticed in both is they seem to have developed this really weird and toxic ideology that really does seem to have a lot of its roots in the increasing commodification of everything including relationships. I'm not saying it's the biggest cause or even a cause at all but a lot of the weirder shit seems to almost be an attempt to use something like I dunno a marketing algorythm or something.

Iol playing Stellaris at the moment and through sheer fleet power, espionage and diplomatic arm twisting I've forced the members of the galactic community to institute shared burdens or utopian abundance, outlaw slavery and tie their political power to the working class or suffer extreme punitive sanctions. The games are fun but the fanbase is not.

Back in the 90's over here German shepards had a very bad reputation. My grandad had a couple and they were the most gentle, soppiest doggies you can imagine. I mean yeah they were big and strong but frankly the only way they were gonna hurt us as kids would be by pulling too hard on the lead and yoinking us off our feet.

I've always figured it's basically the same deal with pit bulls, that it's largely fucking nonsense and a dog's temprament is gonna mostly be down to nuture so it's good to see the sources here seem to back that up.

You had some good teachers by the sounds of it. Even if it doesn't tell the whole story it seems like at least an honest attempt to understand it.

So she's found a way to monetise pandering to the transphobes, stirring up hate and reinforcing hateful tropes. Nasty piece of work.

I was gonna type out a whole load of stuff but I think Death to America covers it at this point tbh.

While self defence ect. Is absolutely worth considering, you ideally don't want it to get to that stage.

From the sounds of it, your university is doing the standard beurocratic arse covering bullshit of hoping it'll all go away. That's because dealing with the problem is going to be a pain in the arse for them.

One thing, as well as the other suggestions here of course, to try is making yourself a bigger pain in the arse to them than dealing with the problem will be. Document and report everything. Keep on complaining until they are in the position where if (god forbid) the worst would happen there'd be massive a pile of reports about him and they would definately lose their jobs. Then they might step in.

Trust your instincts, don't let them make you feel stupid and document/report everything.
