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 I mean being very isolated and very defensive towards colonisers is about the only strategy that seems to work.

As any Cuba related thing comes up, we must remember that in Cuba, a secretive, oppressive government has rounded up countless people, imprisoned them without trial, subjected them to horrific torture for decades at a time and that same govt laughs in the face of the international community's pleas to stop or even just let impartial inspectors in to ensure even a bare modicom of humanity for those poor souls left to rot.

I'm talking about Guantanimo bay of course.

Ah fair point yeah.

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.

It's gonna be the whole Nazi Volkswagen idea but even sadder and smelling of crusted semen.

Yeah it is. I mean I know fuck all about Chinese naming customs etc. But if I were writing a story and wanted to include a chinese character I would do some basic research and not pick a name that sounds like a character from a deeply unfunny racist comedy show circa 1970

I mean she called her one token Asian Hogwarts student Cho Chong. She's got a bit of a habit for doing zero research whatsoever.

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.
