This panel perfectly explained why its participants are so widely mocked: Lib-media love-in featuring (1) laughingstock cab minister (2) self-loathing J-school dean (3) tiktokker (4) leader of bloated state network no one watches, & (5) woman who says she's glad the queen's dead
Oh and the whole thing is one long argument about why we need more censorship. In a million years, I would not let one person in that room decide anything connected with what canadians are allowed to say
for those outside Canada:
these aren't rando SJWs from student council
Ollder woman is @PresidentCBCRC, pres of cbc
woman celebrating queen's death is @TheHillTimes columnist
Jazz-hands tiktokker is at @globalnews
guilty white dude runs a journo school
other one is in cabinet
Just to be clear: @JSchool_CU was trying to present an authoritative panel on what is here presented as "online hate." And this is the event they came up with. It's a real university and this isn't satire.
Jon Kay tweeted later that the "self-loathing 5th gen settler J-school dean" is unsurprisingly a twice-failed Trudeau Liberal candidate who headed a report for the party brass why they don't connect with rural voters.
For context, Carleton is one of the two big universities in Ottawa. It's journalism school is considered the best and most prestigious in the country. A journo degree from Carleton is like an MD from Johns Hopkins, as far as the Canadian journalism industry is concerned.

This is from a panel where I spoke about online hate against journalists. I expected trash reaction to roll in the next day. But I did not expect haters to willingly share that they don't know any women. If they did, they'd probably know what "semi-sheer tights" are.
Or...hear me out here..maybe they know women who wear actual bottoms when they go in public, let alone attend a professional work event.
Laughing isn't going to stop them.
We've been laughing at them for decades and look where it's gotten us.
People keep appeasing them because we aren't posing a threat to appeasers.
We must attack appeasers.
The hubris and narcissism is off the fucking charts.
Yes, journalists produce a lot of online hate, particularly towards white males. Are they finally going to tackle that problem?

it's never the deserving that face blowback

I'm surprised by this fact, though I have no evidence to counter.
I always thought Carleton in general was considered a lower tier joke.
Mostly they are, especially their sciences faculties. The journalism school is their big draw, specifically because it's in Ottawa.

I imagine the real men's men around her probably know a whole lot about wearing women's clothing and worn out knees to differentiate.
