I just friended the guy on FB and sent him some encouraging words. Let's not let this guy down.

Two books even! Also while you're there, make sure to report the obviously fake one star reviews left by the outrage mobs.

Iโm very surprised he doesnโt have a voat account. If he does and is reading this - you did nothing wrong brother.

Everyone drop in on the comments of his YT channel. We need your help.

Even that is too harsh though. If any other race/ethnicity/gender/religion had a drunken celebration of their own race/ethnicity/gender/religion, it would be cheered and held up as an example of "empowerment" and "bravery".
Would they discipline a black person for saying, "Blacks are amazing, we have great dance moves and we was kings!"?
A Mexican for saying , "Latinos are awesome, we invented coffee and chocolate and tortillas!"?
A woman for screaming, "We are goddesses, we are beautiful, we make babies!"?
A transgender queerfurrykin for purring, "I have sex with dogs, I wear costumes and go to conventions, I'm great!"?
White people should have the right to express themselves even if they are saying something controversial. This guy was not inciting violence or verbally attacking anyone. He should not be punished for having an opinion.

Even that is total BS. He should not be punished at all!! Freaking unreal how they make "white people" step on eggshells these days. This is so wrong on every level. Is there a way to message him & tell him to create a voat account?

Dear Undergraduate Students,
We write to you to unequivocally denounce a deeply disturbing racially charged incident involving Columbia undergraduates that took place in front of Butler Library and JJโs Place early this morning.
Many of you have heard about or seen the alarming footage online, which includes painful language directed toward students of color in our community. Although we cannot comment on the proceedings, this incident is already under investigation by the Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards, and we want to assure you that it will be investigated thoroughly, beginning with interviews of witnesses.
We are alarmed at the rise of incidents of racism and hate speech in our world today. It is more important than ever that we continually demonstrate our core values and restate our commitment to a diverse, inclusive community on campus. At Columbia, we stand firmly against white supremacist language and violence. As we said last week, our community will not waver in its support for those of any faith, race, gender, sexual orientation, background or identity.
We understand this may be a difficult time for you and your classmates. Members of our on-call team began to provide individual support as soon as we learned of the incident. If you need support this evening, please reach out to your RA, who will connect you to additional resources as necessary.
All undergraduate students are invited to an open reflection space tomorrow night, Monday, December 10, 6:00-8:00 p.m. in Lerner Hall 505, hosted by Multicultural Affairs, for students to be in community with each other. Additional areas of support will be announced as we are able to plan.
Our collective work toward peace, respect and understanding must continue, both within our community and society at large.
Sincerely,
Mary C. Boyce Dean of The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science
Lisa Rosen-Metsch Dean of the School of General Studies
James J. Valentini Dean of Columbia College and Vice President for Undergraduate Education

We need to purge cuckservatives.
Those weaklings are the REAL problem here, not the Left.
