University student says LGBT people can be executed in Muslim countries, university threatens disciplinary action for his Islamophobic comment
590 2017-10-17 by shallowm
Relevant excerpt from article:
The student MacDonald was talking to mentioned she was a Christian while her fiance was Muslim.
MacDonald responded by explaining he didn’t have a ‘high opinion of Islam’ because ‘there are Muslim countries where I could get executed.
‘I mentioned that I didn’t have anything against her fiance personally and that I was strictly talking about the religious beliefs themselves.
‘I took this to mean that she wanted to talk about our personal lives, so I mentioned my fiancee and our leanings and we talked about what restaurants she’s worked at….’
MacDonald was then called into the department chair’s office, where she told him that he could be subject to administrative discipline for this speech.

Some relevant highlights from the transcription (irrelevant parts cut out, full transcription available at the link above):
EVE BROWNING: “compromised and harmed one of our main interests” … so it was a conversation you had with a couple of other students that you weren’t originally part of, and you joined it, and the topic of… the topic of one student being engaged to a Muslim came up, and it was alleged that you made offensive comments about Islam to that student -- and this is all, I represent this all as alleged because I wasn’t there, it’s not complaints that I have made, I don’t know you in class…
EVE BROWNING: ...what we all want is for all of our students to succeed academically, so when there are students saying that something you’re doing -- and think what it could be, if anything -- when there are students saying there’s something you’re doing that is making their learning environment less helpful, less productive, less pleasant, then we have to explore what that is.
ALFRED MACDONALD: ...“derogatory comments to other graduate students” I don’t even know. I’m totally mystified. I really don’t talk to people -- at this program -- much at all.
EVE BROWNING: You don’t recall the topic of a Muslim fiance ever coming up?
ALFRED MACDONALD: That yes, but I was responding specifically to number four. Number five was: I said that I was bothered that I could be killed in ten Muslim countries. I’m bisexual. So they’d definitely do that in the ten countries where I would be -- you know.
EVE BROWNING: Doesn’t that strike you as an inappropriate thing to say about someone’s fiance?
ALFRED MACDONALD: I wasn’t talking about the fiance. The fiance could have whatever interpretation of the religion that they want. I said something like … (thinking) that I … yeah it wasn’t about the fiance, it was about the religious practices in those countries.
EVE BROWNING: How is it appropriate to bring that up in connection with someone’s fiance?
ALFRED MACDONALD: They brought it up. The Islam part.
EVE BROWNING: And you brought up the threat to your life as posed by this fiance?
ALFRED MACDONALD: No. We got to the subject of Islam, not the fiance.
EVE BROWNING: Do you understand how someone would find that offensive?
ALFRED MACDONALD: How someone would FIND that offensive, yeah; how they could perceive it, yeah; yeah, I mean, if I…
EVE BROWNING: It’s a confusing comment to me because Muslims do not all live in countries in which bisexuals are executed. Muslims live in the United States--
ALFRED MACDONALD: Sure.
EVE BROWNING: --Muslims live in France, Muslims live in every country in the world -- it’s the fastest growing world religion.
ALFRED MACDONALD: Yeah, one of my good friends at the university is Muslim.
EVE BROWNING: And do you tell him that you object to his religion because there are places on earth where gay, lesbian and bisexual people are discriminated against, including your own country?
ALFRED MACDONALD: Well, “her.” And my verbiage was “killed” not “discriminated against.” I mean, Death penalty’s pretty severe.
EVE BROWNING: What does that have to do with her being engaged to a Muslim?
ALFRED MACDONALD: Nothing. I wasn’t talking about the engagement to the Muslim. I was talking about Islam in that particular moment.
EVE BROWNING: Well, let me just say that kind of thing is not going to be tolerated in our department. We’re not going to tolerate graduate students trying to make other graduate students feel terrible for our emotional attachments.
ALFRED MACDONALD: Um… all right.
EVE BROWNING: And, if you don’t understand why that is, I can explain fully, or I can refer you to the Behavior Intervention Team on our campus which consists of a counselor, faculty member, and person from student affairs who are trained on talking to people about what’s appropriate or what isn’t.
ALFRED MACDONALD: I just won’t bring anything up about Islam again. That’s pretty simple. Although I’m not sure what you mean by... so I’ve read the student handbook pretty th--well not pretty thoroughly, but I’ve read it at least twice, and what do you mean by “it won’t be tolerated?” Like I’ll be straight up prevented from registering? Or the team that you mention, the behavior intervention team, they’re going to do something or… what exactly is the penalty for breaking that assuming that I’m in some other situation where I say something that someone else finds offensive and you...
EVE BROWNING: We’d put it either before the behavior intervention team or the student conduct board and ask them to make a recommendation.
ALFRED MACDONALD: Ask them to make a recommendation? What does that mean?
EVE BROWNING: Whether they would refer you for counseling; whether they would recommend that you be academically dismissed; they would assess the damage. They would probably try to speak to the students who are complaining and the faculty that are complaining and make a recommendation. In any case…
Notice how the student said that there are Muslim countries where he could be killed, and the department chair brings up the completely irrelevant point that not all Muslims live in these countries (no shit?).
The student also shows up in the comment section of the article to clarify things:
Edit: Statement from the student's Facebook page about the incident
Edit 2: It appears that redditors were sending her death threats:
I emailed Browning to ask for her side of the story but haven’t heard back from her. Gay Star News reports that it also emailed her, and she declined to respond substantively, saying, “The number of threats I am receiving (due to threads the student has started on Reddit) makes this a subject I would not feel safe discussing even very generally.”
Bonus points if you find these threads or know what the student's (MacDonald's) /u/ is on reddit.
Edit 3: For those asking why he brought it up, here's the context he gave:
I was having an outside-of-class conversation with another graduate student about the religious leanings of philosophy professors. Specifically, I was curious if there would be any bias toward me if I took a religious philosophy course as an atheist. I didn't think there would be; I took a theology course at a catholic university, and was openly atheist, and had zero pushback about this. So I commented that I had a good opinion of Christian professors in this regard. The student I was talking to mentioned that she was Christian but that her fiance was Muslim. I said "I don't have a high opinion of Islam", and mentioned the aspects you heard in the recording. I mentioned that I didn't have anything against her fiance personally, and that I was strictly talking about the religious beliefs themselves. I took this to mean that she wanted to talk about our personal lives, so I mentioned my fiancee and our leanings and we talked about what restaurants she's worked at.
The conversation very demonstrably started with ideas and shifted to people.
To be honest, his explanation makes him seem more autistic for bringing it up, although it was tangentially related, it doesn't really flow in the conversation.
It was kind of dumb for him to say that in the given context, but I don't think he deserved to be threatened with disciplinary action for expressing something like that in a private conversation outside of class.
Edit 4: Further down in his statement, he says:
The conversation started over how I was concerned that I would be treated unfairly because I am an atheist working under many religious philosophers. So she led the conversation with “yeah, you have to watch out for [insert professor] in that case.”
Some time after this she mentioned Islam, which is where this controversy over my comment was conceived.
My reply was “I don’t think highly of Islam because I am bisexual and could be legally put to death in about a dozen countries that use Islam for their legal system.”
This was offensive to the student, because her fiance is Muslim. I did not know this at the time; obviously, and my comment occurred primarily in a discussion of ideas, not people. In fact, I repeatedly told the student “I’m sure he’s a great guy.” She seemed pleasant as if nothing had gone wrong, and then reported this to the chair afterward.
A bit fishy to me, because the way he worded it the first time, it seemed like she said her fiancé was Muslim and then he commented about Islam after that. I'm not sure what to think now, I kind of regret making this post, to be honest, he seems like a bit of an edgelord and his story isn't consistent. Oh, well.
Edit 5: Alright, I found the student, his account is here, he confirms it himself. I officially regret making this thread.
He's a /r/the_Donald user and MRA edgelord too. He even carries two fucking guns on him at the same time, what a fucking retard lol. He also breaks multiple US laws regularly, so much for being a patriot. Sharia when, my boys?
This is precisely why we need mayocide.
Forgive me, O autists of /r/drama, for I have transgressed
For meager compensation, I offer Alfred MacDonald's bussy (NSFW). It's not much, but it's the least I could do.

I'm not even sure what your point is. Yeah I'd rather sleep with a dakimakura of my waifu Renge-chan than with some random 3D slut but that doesn't mean I'm desperate, it's the opposite, it implies that I have standards.

It is what is happening. Mao was the biggest SJW of them all.
What do you think the Red Guard got started ? Denial of reality and claims of oppression.

Fun fact ...

The writing is a bit Chinglish, but you get the picture - Mao got sick of the SJW students (and their infighting, and the way they kept getting brutally crushed by the PLA once the actual military got the shits with them). So he told them all to fuck off and go pretend to be farmers.

In all r/drama off, China's 20th century history is honestly fascinating.

Reading accounts from the Cultural Revolution in China and the Red Terror in Russia really set a new standard for my views of how bad things can get.
There was one story about a woman who was raped repeatedly then her fingers were cut off with pliers one by one until she divulged the location of a few small pieces of hidden jewelry that really got to me.

So basically reality is triggering and us dumb faggots need to shut our mouths because our lives are less of a concern them muslims comfort, the progressives showing what good allies they are as usual.
1 shallowm 2017-10-17
Well, his fiancée is Lebanese/Pakistani, it wouldn't really be a problem in Lebanon, it's one of the most liberal Arab countries and over 40% of the population is Christian, although he could have been referring to Arab countries in general.
It's Pakistan where simple allegations of blasphemy can get you brutally murdered by a mob and saying "maybe we shouldn't kill someone for blasphemy" gets you killed.
Sex outside of marriage wouldn't probably be looked upon nicely in Pakistan either (I hear that debauchery is not unheard of amongst the upper classes, but I guess that's in every country, keep in mind that the majority of the country doesn't fall into this category though), even moreso because he's not Muslim and/or not from a Muslim background.
1 noholdingbackaccount 2017-10-17
You're misrepresenting Lebanon. It was like you described a while ago.
Now, South Lebanon is basically a breakaway state under Shia Islamic theocracy.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
Hey don't put every progressive in the same category as these SJW imbeciles please. In fact more progressives aren't retarded, corporate media supporting this shit to distract and divide the public is the reason you might think we are.

Not a lot of reputation left to destroy really - y'all did that all by yourselves
1 Neon_needles 2017-10-17
As the earth slowly melts into a pile of goo and countless corrupt monopolies screw everyone, a brave progressive looked to the sky - Held his hands out high and said "You know, I think we need a 10 year discussion period about if PePe is offensive to transsexuals."
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
And what coincidence, that discussion is extremely helpful to these monopolies because it diverts attention from them. It's as if the ruling class purposely co-opted certain movements like feminism and certain gullible authoritarian leftist morons right after Occupy Wall Street because they felt the mobs breathing down their necks.
Still, it doesn't mean the left fell for it, just some morons who became part of of the problem.
1 heavenlytoaster 2017-10-17
Go say that anywhere in the leftosphere. It's called Nazi apologism.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
That's because the so-called "leftosphere" is also controlled by these monopolies. For example, I could say all this in r/politics a year ago before it was completely taken over by certain shady groups (both the moderation and the community which is now controlled by shills and bots). That is a fact.
1 heavenlytoaster 2017-10-17
You think the socialist and anarchist subs are all shills too? Because they're even more fucking retarded.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
r/anarchism is an authoritarian shithole worse than any default you can think of. R FUCKING ANARCHISM. That should give you a clue about how I feel about reddit's so called leftist subs.
1 VicisSubsisto 2017-10-17
You think it happened that recently. That's cute.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
I don't know what's your opinion might be on third-wave feminism, arguably it has lost its way a long time ago, and neo-Stalinists/Stalinsts-lite were always destructive for our movements but they DEFINITELY were co-opted by the ruling class right after OWS. Maybe it was already happening on a smaller scale but damn, you can pinpoint exactly when the shift happened, it was that obvious.
1 Illuminatesfolly 2017-10-17
Waiting for the end of the world any day now! Surely this will be the end!
Man you really showed us that the truth is in the middle and that you definitely dont hate muslims more than you want to use LGBT issues as a shield to defend your fragile theory of mind.
1 jaja10 2017-10-17
what's wrong with hating muslims?
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
"Ourselves"? Since when MSNBC, reddit, CNN, Buzzfeed and the rest of the controlled corporate media represent us? Is it the censorship that makes you think these fucks represent us, is it the canned talking points, shills and bots stirring every discussion?
This identity politics dumpster fire from both sides is nothing more than a red herring to distract from the real issues. Don't be gullible, shitholes like reddit aren't representative of progressives or in fact any ideology especially after last year's DNC takeover.
1 PJmath 2017-10-17
Oooo, a progressive conspiracy theorist. Sorry, but you really are a rare breed.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
lol the ruling class using race and gender to divide the middle class is a conspiracy theory? Read some history, they've been doing it forever, it's not even a hypothesis, it's a fact.
1 PJmath 2017-10-17
Listen up you racist piece of shit, you don't get to blame your disgusting white skin on some lizard elite ruling class you pulled out of your ass. The only place where you can even find an ounce of truth online these days are mainstream organisations like the BBC, NPR and other national news agencies.
The only people doing the dividing among the left are the shithead diet racism bernieboy fucks who can't tell journalism from a dumbass yelling into a webcam on youtube. Mayocide Now.
1 Ecclesia_Andune 2017-10-17
I'd give you the time of day, but then i remembered how the left goes around treating anyone right of 'extremely far left' as 'The Alt Right' and treats them like shit - so i guess this time i get to do the same. How fun
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
I'd give you the time of day if you hadn't just pretty much painted fucking liberals as "extremely far left". Liberals are rightwing retards playing with identity politics like a child plays in the mud.
1 Ecclesia_Andune 2017-10-17
So you say you feel misrepresented and that your views are being demonised?

Your ideology is sadly dead and completely overwhelmed by divisive identity politics. If you don't want to be conflated with idiots who believe in the progressive stack you could yourself a "Teddy Roosevelt progressive", but I doubt most people understand the difference.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
As is the conservative and every other ideology in 2017. It's not the ideology, it's the people who control public discourse purposely infecting every ideology with this bullshit to pit us against each other.
1 -absolutego- 2017-10-17
I disagree. The left, and in particular progressives, have been screaming identity politics for the last 10 years at the top of their lungs. Sure, the media made it worse, but it's also institutionalized in universities and left-wing activist groups in a manner you never see in conservative institutions. The Heritage Foundation isn't publishing articles about how black people are the root of all evil in the same way social justice think tanks and leftist media refer to whites.
When, over the past 2 years, conservatives began to mumble a little bit about identity politics everyone freaked out and acted like this came out of nowhere and it's no one's fault, but the current abysmal level of discourse was absolutely fostered by the American left and I say that as a former progressive.
1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
Really? Conservatives weren't spamming us about gays, abortion and other retarded identity politics bullshit based on their retarded religion for years?
1 Fukthisaccnt 2017-10-17
Oh the last ten years? That almost compares with how conservatives have played identity politics of whites since the 60s

What a load of shit. Obama didn’t run on identity politics, neither did Hillary. And if you really think they were hooked on identity politics in 2007, then you need to get out of your conservative bubble.
Right, because Ann Coulter, rush limbaugh and Fox News bear no responsibility, neither is it the right’s fault that they elected a guy who insults everyone he runs against and insulted McCain for getting captured. It’s all totally the left’s fault /s
1 CucksLoveTrump 2017-10-17

1 RaoulDukeff 2017-10-17
I tell whoever I can irl. In this shithole of a site though it's impossible since most subs have been taken over by identity politics lunatics, either from the left or the right, so it's impossible to even start a discussion.

I'd actually probably consider myself a progressive/liberal (I don't really care too much for actual politics though), but the way some people with no experience with Islam strive to defend Islam is ridiculous.

Its like /r/drama and the conservative bottom feeders that inhabit it are missing the point on purpose!
1 LONDONSFALLING123 2017-10-17
Yeah in the transcript the university staff member says he interjected into a conversation he wasn't a part of, someone's Muslim fiance came up, and he said he objected to the religion because in some countries they execute people who aren't heterosexual. Regardless of his argument it seems like he interjected and was rude for no reason, as they say he upset someone.
It seems the "victim" has tried hard to make it sound like he innocently mentioned a fact about Muslim countries in a relevant conversation. Yet it still seems pretty clear that he butted into a conversation with people he isn't friends with (he says himself he doesn't really speak to anyone on the course) and then started criticising Islam because someone's Muslim fiance was mentioned.
Funny how this guy is the type of moron people on here would normally be calling out but because Muslims are mentioned they are all flapping about that instead.
1 VidiotGamer 2017-10-17
He's posted to his facebook that this claim was a flat out lie, so believe who you want.
1 DickingBimbos247 2017-10-17
that's what the Stasi claims. The same women that tried several times to change "killed" to "discriminated against", and to change "don't like islam" to "don't like her fiance."
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
LOL so its his bad for possibly interjecting and stating a fact about the religion of peace so someone got butt mad enough to go snitch on him?
Do you know what site you are on?
1 Unicorn_Abattoir 2017-10-17
We don't know what was asked, really. "My fiance is from Pakistan. Have you ever traveled to Pakistan?"
"No, they'd stone me to death there, thanks though."
1 shallowm 2017-10-17
From his comments:
I'm going to imagine that the conversation probably went like
"Oh, I know a bit about Islam, my fiancé is actually Muslim."
"Well, I don't have a very high opinion of Islam, I could be executed in 10 Muslim countries."
1 Unicorn_Abattoir 2017-10-17
Yeah, I just found his response in the comments as well. It's pretty clear that feefees were irreparably damaged by facts.
1 DickingBimbos247 2017-10-17
they were talking about religions in general, before she mentioned her fiance's

"Rules for thee, not for me!" is pretty much the liberal motto at this point. They have a lot of little sayings to enforce this, 'Whataboutism', 'Punching up', 'intersectionality'; all basically mean 'The rules I make for you, can never be invoked against me'.

All the liberal parties of Europe now have their electoral hopes bound permanently to 'refugees' that are Muslim. So the left is going full-on 'Muslims are like women; just plain better than the rest of you!' to ensure that demographic votes for them in the future.
It's identical to the way progressives treat illegals here. They want future anchor babies, or their hopes for the future are fucked. So rather than actually try to appeal to the existing electorate, they are forever dreaming of an emerging democratic majority made up of the children of illegals, and possible illegals themselves if they can ever find a way to make amnesty happen.

Eh, in Europe maybe but probably not in the US. 2nd and 3rd generation Mexicans are increasingly likely to see themselves as white instead of some oppressed group and the Latino demographic has never been as indebted to Democrats as the Black community. Not to mention they consistently turn out to vote at lower levels than any other racial demographic.
Despite the crime/drugs/other consequences of illegal immigration Mexican Americans spend much more effort assimilating and contributing to American culture than the Muslims that Europe is importing. The situations aren't analogous beyond the motives of the bureaucrats pushing their agenda.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
Come to California
1 -absolutego- 2017-10-17
I recently escaped from a CA city that's 35% Hispanic, I know what it's like. The poor, self destructive demographic is but a portion of the overall population and for every wannabe gangsta slinging meth there's a few small business owners whose kids now work in the tech industry. They don't act stereotypical so they aren't immediately noticed.
There hasn't been the breakdown of the Latino nuclear family required to turn them into the dystopian nightmare that constitutes most inner city black populations.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
True the breakdown of the latino nuclear family is not as severe as that of the african americans. However they are still pretty segregated into ghettos with the entire family or two all living under the same roof. They assimilate way better than muslims in europe but as you know it is not surprising to see entirely latino parts of cities in california with nothing but latino shops and everything being advertised in spanish.
While many of them do hold moderate to conservative views the biggest issue they do vote on is illegal immigration which the democratic party has championed for them consistently. See La Raza and all the sanctuary cities.

1 IDFSHILL 2017-10-17
Lol, the democratic party wins every demographic in the US outside of middle-aged white guys or older white people in general.
The democratic party doesn't even have to say anything about illegals to win Hispanic voters, the GOPs blatant racism in the last 25 years sealed the deal, just like it did with black voters.
1 Pepperglue 2017-10-17
You are correct. The Democratic Party only needs to sit on their asses, and GOP support will wane out eventually.
But they had to try that identity politic bullshit. Sure they still win those demographic you mentioned in the last Presidential Election, but much less than Obama back in 2008.
1 IDFSHILL 2017-10-17
Much less? Please. It wasn't "much less."
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/11/08/us/politics/election-exit-polls.html

1 ReallyConfusedMurray 2017-10-17
The children of those immigrants aren't as religious and socially conservative as their parent's though, so there's no surprise to be had. Take a look at how most Hispanic blocs vote and besides from Cubans, it's heavily democrat. Nothing will change unless the GOP do there best to scrub The Donald from the minds of Mexicans.

I don't want to make overarching assumptions about the types of Hispanics who voted as exit polls didn't tally it, but I would figure opinion on immigration is very different for Cubans and Mexicans, showing it's hard to group Hispanic voters together, especially when it comes to individual policies.

This is true. The Democrats have forsaken their previous base of blue collar workers for the promise of a future base of anchor babies. The previous appeal to blue collar workers was the Democratic support of unions and while Dems still support unions on paper actions speak louder than words.
I think the strategy is backfiring - last election we saw historically blue states turn red for Trump. Dems are playing the long game in appealing to illegals and they may eventually "win" but sort term - over the next decade or so I think you're going to see continuing democratic losses, except in liberal strongholds

Oh they do vote for them. They are tied to the liberal parties whether they have the same ethics or not, just like Christians and the right wing in the US. In the UK Muslims are now the only demographic which are almost guaranteed to vote Labour even though they are the most politically conservative group. It's not just fear of the right wing which causes this, as other equally targeted minority groups are much more likely to vote in line with their actual views than UK Muslims, it's more of a "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" situation, especially in local government.

There is nothing wrong with wanting /r/Drama to remain culturally Dramanese, as it was before the influx of a backwards, intolerant, regressive minority who refuse to integrate.

i understand the thing but the thing still doesn't make sense
1 MakeAmericaSageAgain 2017-10-17
If you're gonna make a dismayed seriouspost at least make a counter argument and prove the point you're trying to make. All this "omg literally what is happening to r/drama he is so wrong, but I can't explain why u should know"- histrionics isn't convincing anyone.
Personally I think he has somewhat of a point. Even though I don't believe there is any conscious long term plan to slide towards the refugees I've seen it happen in my own country. The socialist and feminist parties are often closer to far-right Muslims than they are to centrists who stand up for egalitarian values. That's a fact, I'll provide examples if you want..
I absolutely hate the dumbfuck nationalist parties that have sprung up as a reaction, but the truth is that the alternative isn't looking a lot better. I'll gladly start voting for a left-wing party if they ever manage to pull their heads out of their ass.
If not, let's just get the race war over with, c'mooooon.
1 EvanHarper 2017-10-17
The thing is you should know why his comment is insane. And you do know.
Whatever the left's problems dealing seriously with refugee and cultural issues in Europe, it is clearly not a calculated master plan to replace white voters with Muslim ones for electoral advantage. That is idiotic and insane. Full stop.
1 MakeAmericaSageAgain 2017-10-17
Why does it matter whether it is calculated or not? It has happened and is continuing to happen.
I'm with you in the sense that I believe the increasing accommodation towards the bigotry of Muslims is caused by short sighted opportunism and cognitive dissonance. Most leftists who tolerate this bigotry are driven by ignorance and misplaced compassion.
However, we both know that there are left-leaning political leaders who are consciously pushing this agenda forwards. A lot of them are very straightforward about it. If this comes as a surprise to you you should pay closer attention.
It has 50 upvotes because people recognize that there is some level of truth in the comment. The left (and the right too for that matter, at least in Sweden) want to scoop up the vote of the new Muslim working class and this is part of how they have done it so far. You should know that is what has happened in Europe.
I'm more than willing to listen if you could explain why it is idiotic and insane. Preferably without going for the tired "right-wing conspiracy nuts amirite". People haven't started to think this way just because they're evil or stupid, they've seen it happen based on their own experiences.
1 EvanHarper 2017-10-17
No, dude.
The theory that the left is all-in on to favor a relatively small, poor, politically disengaged minority, by measures that go further and faster than ones that are already provoking serious popular backlash, out of Machiavellian political calculation is obviously absurd. It makes no sense. It's obviously just an American projecting onto Europe the (highly overstated and unrealistic, but not totally made-up) hopes of U.S. Democrats w/r/t Hispanic demographics. It's stupid and we shouldn't take it seriously.

Well look if those LGBT people didn't want to be executed they shouldn't have been born in those countries, problem solved. Don't know why people have to bring religion into it, it's just a little cultural difference. Why can't y'all be more accepting of a different way of doing things ie killing people for who they are as a person? Also, certain LGBT demographics have more disposable income than other demographics, so therefore they probably had it coming thanks to their privilege anyways. #intersectionalism

1 nicethingyoucanthave 2017-10-17
This is a dirty little trick. "try to think what sins you might have committed." They're trying to trick you into saying something incriminating. Consider the example [this lawyer gives at 15:00 in this video]() - it's a video about talking to police, but it applies here too. Also consider his point at 4:30, because you've talked to someone, it's no longer your word against the "victim" it's now your word vs. the victim and the interviewer.
Proper response if you find yourself in that situation: No, I don't care to play a guessing game you. If you have received a specific complaint, then present that complaint to me in writing. Until that time, I expect you to treat me the same way that you treat any other student - namely, innocent. I'm giving you notice right now, and I'll also be sending this to you in writing, that if you treat me any differently based on rumors you've heard, or lies that you've been told, that I will consider that harassment and I will take what legal action I can to remedy it.

What kind of degenerate brings up a non sequitur like that just because someone says their fiance is a Muslim? But of course I could be missing lots of context or the conversation probably didn't immediately proceed that way, is there some way I can see the full article?
1 444455555666666 2017-10-17
He claims in the comments that they were talking about religious ideas in the first place, and then she mentioned her fiance being muslim
1 HivemindBuster 2017-10-17
On the other hand, from further reading the dude has admitted to having an annoying personality and having ADHD - so I wouldn't be at all surprised if he mentioned it in an awkward an inappropriate way.
1 MittRomneysCampaign 2017-10-17
that's not why I brought that up and also doesn't relate to why I brought up the islam comment
you're referring to my comment here and it was related to speaking out in class, not in private, out-of-class conversations
given that you brought up being an "autist", you should have also brought up my comments about that:
1 HivemindBuster 2017-10-17
So why did you bring it up? From your own accounts it seems you brought it up immediately after she said her fiance was Muslim - that seems fairly socially autistic to me, and yeah I don't mean that in a scientifically accurate sense but rather a mocking derogatory sense, sorry!
1 MittRomneysCampaign 2017-10-17
the discussion was about ideas, not people
1 HivemindBuster 2017-10-17
Do you think you could provide a paraphrased account of the conversation, with the "ideas" context, so I can have a better idea of how it went down?
1 MittRomneysCampaign 2017-10-17
me: "I'm thinking about taking a religious philosophy course, would [professor] care if I am atheist?"
(note: I went to a catholic university, from my experience they don't, but I wanted to make sure)
girl: "Nah, you should be fine. [Professor whose name I forget] is who you want to watch out for if that's your concern"
me: "Oh, okay. I've generally had good experiences with Christianity as it is."
girl: "Yeah, I'm Christian but my fiance is Muslim"
me: "Haha, I don't have a high opinion of Islam because something like countries that use it for law would kill me."
girl: something about fiance
me: something like "I'm sure he's fine. I used to have a crush on a Muslim girl who goes here actually, I was referring to the religion in general"
girl: something like "oh okay"
we talked for about fifteen minutes total about the kind of exams our professor gave and she told me about the restaurant she worked at and about some other girl she didn't like who she said she was prettier than. this was mostly a footnote in the conversation and proportionally we probably spent 500% as much time on the chisme from her restaurant than anyone's religious leanings
1 aquinasorbust 2017-10-17
I go to the UTSA program. The woman to whom you made the derogatory comments was not coaxed into reporting. She was actually disturbed by you, and she reported you herself to her faculty mentor and to the chair. Your strong impression is wrong. She was really uncomfortable.
1 MittRomneysCampaign 2017-10-17
I don't believe you.
if this is true, then she's extremely two-faced and bothered me with a lot of anecdotes about her restaurant job and her fiance that I didn't need to hear. if it's not, then this is something someone made up on reddit. neither are uncommon or hard to believe.
regardless, how someone feels is absolutely not justification for removal, dismissal, or anything of this kind. on a public university campus the first amendment absolutely takes priority. an environment for free and open exchange of ideas is the only unique purpose of universities.
you are massively backward in your moral priorities here.
1 aquinasorbust 2017-10-17
The faculty did not need to coax the woman into reporting. Perhaps she had mis-heard something you said. Maybe she misinterpreted something. In the end, she told me she reported you of her own volition, because she left the conversation disturbed.
1 MittRomneysCampaign 2017-10-17

Wow, wtf. The fact alone that there's someone from the department talking to this student about this incident... that there are transcript and so on. Back when I went to uni I barely talked with the department head and it was very informal. And racist comments wouldn't be brought to the attention of some higher instance anyway, you'd just avoid this person.
I get the logic, even though it's a bit nit-picky, that you don't have to generalize from a personal story to all of Islam for no reason. An intent to offend or provoke could be seen from that, although that shouldn't really matter.
But apparently the topic at hand was Islam in general so making this personal for her, it's absolutely her own fault. Don't connect an academic discussion to your personal life and then get offended when people say things against the general topic that was previously discussed.

the UTSA campus is enormous. it's an hour drive there on the busiest highway and minimally a 40-minute walk if you shuttle there; an hour if you don't. on top of the hour meeting time she was asking me to take four hours out of my day off (three commuting) for "some behavioral concerns" when I was having to borrow rides to school, and she insisted that she could not discuss this over email. you're god damn fucking right I recorded it, it smelled like suspicious bullshit from the get-go.

I mean, it's a fucking fact that they kill gays in muslim countries. I didn't know you could get disciplined for pointing out facts. I wonder what the reaction would have been if MacDonald had instead pointed out that white cis males are killing trans people or some retarded shit like that.

IIRC, the guy is a real POS and other students say he spent his time harassing people. It's not just one incident reported to the school, but only one is being reported in the media because that's the one he recorded. Just because you're paying to be there doesn't grant you the ability to treat others poorly.
1 Butmuh1stAmendment 2017-10-17
I understand your point, but what I think the underlying feeling is that this guys is being labeled these these because he has unpopular opinions and is an asshole. I mean he isn't threatening anyone that I have seen, or being bigoted, just saying that he doesn't think highly of Islam because of non protection of homesexuals in Islamic States. The ones where that is the official law. I went to school with tons of over opinionated pricks of all genders, races, and beliefs. I didn't appreciate many if them, but I never went to the channels to try and hurt their academic careers. The world isn't a rosy echo chamber, and therefore college should be a place of honest, intellectual discourse. They are trying to institutionally make him stop saying things they don't agree with. That's not right, even if he is an asshole
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
From the sounds of it, he wasn't just saying that. He was making it a point to harass other students and this was just one of many things he said.
I assume they also didn't harass you or continue doing so after you told them to stop, which is what is being reported here.
College is a place for honest, intellectual discourse, but there is a pretty large gap between having a discussion and harassing someone.
They are telling him he needs to stop being an asshole to colleagues in what is considered a work place for many.
1 hexidecimate 2017-10-17
The dude had more complaints than anyone in the history of the program (not sure how long the program has been running) so that should say something about his conduct in class.

1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
Pointing out facts about backwards countries is treating others poorly now?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
I love how people here act like that was the only thing the guy said. That's the only thing he's admitted to saying. He's being accused by multiple people of harassment, so it's more than just "pointing out facts about backwards countries".
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
Oh shit i didnt realize you had inside knowledge about the other "alleged" offensive things this dude said.
Not even the point i was getting at anyway. How is it offensive to point out a fact about a country that has a history of killing gays?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
I have no more information than what is available to you. The difference is that I'm not ignoring that part that mentions multiple people claiming he's harassed them.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
So what if he made other disparaging comments that both you and i know fuck all about. The issue is what is being specifically reported as to what he said that caused an administrator to call him in to talk to about.
Now answer my question. How the fuck is it personally offensive to point out the fact that pakistan has a history of killing gay people in reference to the religion of someones fiance who was not even present at the time?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
It means there is MORE to the story than he is trying to portray and it comes down to one should not expect to walk away
Seriously, you keep saying that as if it was the only thing he ever said. He fucking admits to saying more and they report that others have gone to administration as well over him harassing them. It's not about it being offensive, it's about him harassing people.
The guy has problems. (Before getting upset about posting to his Reddit name, he is public about his account name.)
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
Did you read the transcript? the only direct accusation apart from the missing class and going on tangents is this incident concerning the comment about the muslim fiance. Once again I ask you how that comment is even remotely offensive enough to warrant a complaint? It is a fact, are facts offensive to you? Quit dodging the question i am asking you /u/Pake1000
How the fuck is this fools reddit user profile even relevant to the question I have asked you repeatedly? Is it the fact that this dude seems to lean conservative that has you all defensive and unwilling to answer a simple question?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Your question is useless without addition context. It's like asking "Is fucking a guy in the ass wrong?" without mentioning whether it was consensual or not.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
What? Are you retarded? I thought you said you read the transcript.
There is the context we are aware of.
LOL no that is a horrible simile to use and in no way relevant to the conversation. Quit deflecting and answer my original question /u/Pake1000
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
I already answered your question, /u/keepittropical.
Making multiple knowingly offensive comments towards a person in a workplace is warrant for a harassment complaint. I cannot be any clearer with my language.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
As i stated earlier the only "offensive" remark referenced is the one concerning the topic of the fiance and muslims killing gay people. I ask how that is offensive to someone when he is stating a fact and you keep saying nooooo he has been making multiple offensive remarks. So no you have not answered my question.
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
If you honestly believe that was the only offensive remark he made given the transcript and articles, I've got a bridge to sell you in Alaska. Your question has been answer multiple times now. You can continue to ignore it, but it has been answer completely.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
You keep saying multiple complaints of harassment is why this specific incident, the only one that they go into detail about and the whole reason for this thread and the article written about it is the reason why it is offensive. I am asking you to disregard the possibility that he may or may not have made actual comments that would warrant a harassment complaint and to give me a direct answer other than multiple complaints = harassment.
How is it personally offensive to state a fact about a country in a conversation regarding that person's significant other and their religious beliefs? Is this truly a case of Islamophobia?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Don't avoid answering my question.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
This question? Yeah if that is the case then yes those are grounds for a legitimate complaint. However if you bothered to read or listen to the transcript then you would know that the comment regarding Islam and the fiance is the only one specifically mentioned. So we dont know what else was said to warrant a harassment complaint but we do know that this specific incident warranted its own complaint as it is #5 on the list that was given to him and Eve Brown goes into some detail with him as to what the complaint was about. This is the complaint I am asking you about.
Answer this: How is it personally offensive to state a fact about a country in a conversation regarding that person's significant other and their religious beliefs? Is this truly a case of Islamophobia?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
So we agree.
Also worth noting that she was one of three people that had talked to him regarding his behavior. Based on the transcript we know the list of complaints to be at least 8: his Muslim comments, tardiness, poor performance in class, consistently leaving class early, and class disruption are five of them. Curious what the other three are. We also know more than two faculty members have complained about his behavior.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
Got a question dodger extraordinaire over here.
I will ask one more time. How is it personally offensive to state a fact about a country in a conversation regarding that person's significant other and their religious beliefs? Is this truly a case of Islamophobia?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
It is personally offensive when you insert yourself uninvited into a conversation with the direct purpose of making the comment to purposely offend the person. Just as he did.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
Good job u/pake1000 you actually answered the question.
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Multiple times I answered your question, with answers based on the context at the time.
1) Multiple comments made that are meant to harass a person in the workplace (as he did) warrants a complaint.
2) It is offensive to insert yourself into another's conversation to purposely (get this) offend them on a personal level (as he did) in the workplace warrants a complaint.
I cannot help that you, /u/keepittropical, are fishing for an answer that you could spin into support for your argument.
1 keepittropical 2017-10-17
No you didnt dude. I asked you multiple times about the specific issue relating to the drama that started this thread. Every time you answered with the "multiple complaints so that is harrasment" shtick you had going on.
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Multiple offensive comments are harassment. Complaints are not harassment. Complaints are what people file when harassed.
1 newprofile15 2017-10-17
Being accused? Where? What recordings do they have? Or is this just Muslims and progressives rallying to attack this guy since he pointed out that Islamic theocracies execute gays?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Articles, including this one, mention other people accusing him of harassment.
1 newprofile15 2017-10-17
You misread the article if you think Volokh is accusing this guy of harassment, he doesn't have any personal knowledge of this guy and he is merely speculating to cover his ass.
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
I don't recall saying the author accused the guy of harassment, only that it is mentioned by the author that others have accused him of it.
1 newprofile15 2017-10-17
So who is making the accusation? You can't just cite an article that speculates on how some people may have accused this guy of acting rudely. Of course people fucking think he is rude, the initial moron Eve Browning pulled him aside for that exact reason and surely there is at least one other person griping about that. So where are the other accusations, the ones which don't revolve around him daring to place homosexuality above Islam on the oppression and privilege pedestal?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Ask the author who those people are. I can only comment on what is mentioned within the article.

All countries that allow religion to dictate policy are backwards, whether that is Saudi Arabia or the United States.
1 JoeFalchetto 2017-10-17
Same level of backwardness.
Which is why the US has gay marriage, gay adoption, being transsexual is legal, abortion is legal.
How is that even a comparison?
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
The Christian right fight hard to remove all those, so by definition they are backwards and wish to make the United States backwards.
1 newprofile15 2017-10-17
Wow great work calling him out with your own incredibly vague accusation that goes nowhere and wouldn't absolve Browning of guilt even if it were true. Even if this guy is an artist weirdo (feel free to post recordings of your own if it is true, we love more drama) her conduct was shit as well.
1 Pake1000 2017-10-17
Her conduct is what you would expect from someone doing HR.
1 MittRomneysCampaign 2017-10-17
lol, no they don't; this was never part of the recording I took and no other students have said anything about me or this incident. you made this up.

From his comments:
1 Illuminatesfolly 2017-10-17
Wow thats a very charitable reading!
It almost makes you believe that discussing Islamic states' oftentimes barbaric human rights policies was appropriate in this situation!
Oh wait, it still wasnt
1 shallowm 2017-10-17
Why is it so farfetched to think that she, being non-Muslim, would say "my fiancé is Muslim" in the context of a conversation about religion?
It's highly unlikely that the conversation went like the way you framed it, most people aren't autistic.
1 Illuminatesfolly 2017-10-17
I think we are all here to read into the situation what we like, and "most people aren't autistic" does not mean that most people aren't stupid, or at the least, careless sometimes.
1 shallowm 2017-10-17
Here's the context he provided for the conversation (I just saw it a little while ago):
To be honest, his explanation makes him seem more autistic for bringing it up, although it was tangentially related, it doesn't really flow in the conversation.
It was kind of dumb for him to say that in the given context, but I don't think he deserved to be threatened with disciplinary action for expressing something like that in a private conversation.
1 Illuminatesfolly 2017-10-17
All blatant agenda-posting aside, it truly seems like this guy does not understand why what he said was inappropriate, given the conversation.
She responded to his seeming tolerance of Christian professors by mentioning that her fiance is a Muslim. To me, this seemed like an implicit agreement with a charitable reading of his point (namely, that it's possible to happily coexist with different religious beliefs - i.e. "I am still married to someone of a different faith, so I wouldn't be too worried about your professors").
In true Trumpian autist fashion, this guy, at a university, says exactly the wrong thing at exactly the wrong time (not to mention his murky intentions in saying it) and makes the entire conversation seem like a trap designed to get out his ideas about organized reLIEgion.
Then, he gets called into his department office and starts screaming AM I BEING DETAINED?? rather than talking like a human being.

The mot popular religion in Britain just now is called Islam (pronunced i-SLAMM). This religion, which is also an ancient culture and an ethnic group which originates in the Middle East, is held in widespread esteem by Britons, who universally admire its enlightened moral values and advanced and liberal culture. Of all religions it is renowned as the most moderate and tolerant, and any student of the faith cannot but be impressed by its pedigree.
The religion's founder, Mohammed, was a noble and powerful trader of Arabia, by literally all accounts ideally handsome and as close to perfect wisdom and grace as any human could attain. Inspired in his heart by the profound truths of his Faith, vouchsafed to him by a golden-winged angel of God, he embarked on a career as a Prophet and peacefully spread the Divine word along caravan routes, and soon amassed a significant following, ready to listen to his message about pacifism, meekness, and Universal Love. From its founder the religion takes its name Mohammedanism, also known as Islam, which signifies acting in accordance with Divine Love. Its practitioners therefore are known as Mohammedans, or Muslims (pronounced MOOSE-lims). The Holy Book of the Mohammedans, called the Al-Koran, is unique among world literature for its beauty, wisdom and tolerant values.
In Britain, its practitioners form open and enlightened communities with a widespread reputation for extreme pacifism, tolerance and unconditional charity to all and sundry. Membership of the Faith is not open to anyone, as the intricate principles of its profound edicts can only be understood by a few, hence its hereditary stewardship by an ethnic caste of enlightened and pure bred gurus, known for their liberal values and generosity of spirit, as well as their physical beauty and the humane wisdom that radiates from their kind and noble faces. Unique among all faiths they have no concept of blasphemy and unflattering depictions of their Prophet are met simply with amused, Zen-like condescension and indifference.
One of the hallmarks of the Good Religion is its far-reaching and modern attitudes to the liberation of women. The Prophet of the faith, Mohammed, was actually the original inventor of women's liberation, long ago in Arabia, freeing women from the crude patriarchalism of the Arabian polytheists. Of all world religions it grants women the most freedom and dignity, centering them in its moral teachings and constantly emphasising their autonomy and bodily integrity. Women from other traditions envy the boldness and liberty of the Islamic women, their progressive styles of dress and their inspiring independence.
Mohammed, as well as being perfectly wise and the original Liberator of Women, is also celebrated as the originator of the scientific method, a tradition which practitioners of the Good Religion maintain with their advanced scientific educations which enable them easily to integrate into British society and flourish there. In addition, no-one who apostatizes from the Faith or converts to another is given any hindrance, since the principle constantly emphasized in the Faith is that of divine tolerance and liberty, which marks all the relations of the Mohameddans, with one another, with other cultures, and with their beautiful wives and daughters, whom they desire only to enter into freely-chosen and loving unions with whomever they desire.
Unfortunately, being much more hard-working and progressive than the feckless and backward native Britons, enmired in their ignorance and settler colonialist privilege, envy of the Good Faith has in recent years grown up, and it has attracted several critics. This criticism is only ever motivated by crude racialism, and a dangerous and fascistic desire to enact violence and genocide on a peace-loving and noble people. These racialist critics have a deep misunderstanding of the Faith and its adherents, and repeat dangerous and damaging lies and slanders about it, indulging in vile, violent and criminal hate speech on their social media platforms, daring to traduce the Faith which has never been anything but pacific and enlightened.
These far right sources, whose violent hate speech physically damages the weak and vulnerable Mohammedan victims, are given free reign to broadcast their loathsome opinions up and down the country. They allege that practitioners of the faith are inspired by their Holy Book to attack and kill infidels, in acts of martyrdom and Jihad (a term which in fact only ever signifies a striving for spiritual perfection). While it is true that some violent acts have been perpetrated recently, the perpetrators thereof were only claiming to be among the Faithful, in order to slander it. The commission of violent acts immediately and automatically excommunicates the person concerned from the community of the Faithful, and the violent perpetrator must by law thenceforth be referred to as a "so-called" Muslim. Those heretics who have gone so far as to form a Caliphate, or state, in the name of the Faith must in all circumstances have the appellation "so-called" applied to their name, in order to differentiate them from the followers of the Pure and Good Faith, to whom life is sacred and the taking of life in any measure abominable.
Many other things are alleged of the Faith and its practitioners which we need not concern ourselves with here, motivated as it is in almost every case by blind bigotry and unthinking racial hatred. Our government has in many cases good relations with states in which the Islamic faith is a majority religion, and is at pains to help these liberal and enlightened regimes by helping them to purchase armaments for the peaceful defence of the Faith, and also to spread the profound and noble truths of Mohammedanism across the globe, inspiring many noble and angelic souls to good works and acts of self-sacrifice. The real problem in Britain today is the vile, violent, and execrable hate speech of the traducers of the Faith, whose verbal attacks are, if anything, much worse than physical attacks in that they stir up hatred against the Mohammedans and tempt them, against their better natures and in spite of themselves, to commensurate acts of violence, proportional, as it were, to the violent Imperialist rhetoric and orientalist bigotry to which they have been subjected.

I might have been able to understand her if she was mad because the other student recorded the conversation, but trying to censor someone for criticizing a particular belief is just bullshit. However, what makes me even more angry is the fact that we have people on this website who will literally send death threats to someone for an incident in which they are not even involved. Way to go Reddit! You not only gave her a valid justification to be mad at the guy who hadn't done anything wrong but also contributed to make this cesspool of a website seen even more shitty than it already is.
1 Etra 2017-10-17
Me too. Yeah, l've had men leer at me on the street, follow me home, park outside my house and watch me through the window, try to take advantage of me when I was drunk, wait till I was asleep and try to unzip my pants, try to tell me that if I just closed my eyes, it would be just like I was with a woman, try to convince me that if I just tried it, I might like it. Some of these men were even friends of mine who should have known better. I did not get angry or threaten them with violence. I simply said, "No, not interested." and walked away. Some of them are still friends in spite of not respecting my boundaries. Yeah, me too. l've also been harassed by women. I've had women stalk me, cut my phone lines, use their witchery or subterfuge to sabotage my relationships with other women, drive into back alleyways with me and threaten to leave me stranded if I didn't do what they wanted, wait till I was asleep to slap me awake or stomp on my chest because they were drunk or full of inner rage. I did not get angry or threaten them with violence. I simply said, "No, this isn't working out, and walked away.I like women a lot. I'm going to go after what I'm interested in I'm not going to be afraid to talk to you or make a move on you if you show any interest at all. l'm not going to be shamed into submission because some other guy treated you like a jerk and l'm not going to assume that you are going to be an ice queen or psycho bitch just because some other woman I was with was but I always respect boundaries, I will always be honest with you, even if it hurts I never take advantage or force myself on anyone. Respect that and the respect will be mutual.
