The picture of the group, specifically the "guy" on the left is really all you need to know about the situation.

Great! More pics for Atlantic to work with! Party Mattress crowd surfing?

Out of interest, do people 'study things' in colleges in the US?

I was of the opinion that a college/university is where you go after school to learn specific valuable things which you will then use as part of a career.

It seems that they are more about people getting worked up about bullshit. Doesn't seem a valuable way to spend your time and money to me.

Only a handful learn anything useful like STEM fields, etc.

Mainly kids learn righteousness, victimization and special snowflake (it's a class look it up). Guys learn to put their balls in a jar. All while loading up on debt.

These are some of the responses to it from the "feministing" Facebook page. This is fucking unreal. All these impressionable young women have been taught to take anything a rape accuser says as necessarily true automatically. It's almost unbelievable to witness, like something out of the dark ages.

Man, the body/facial language in that pic is pure gold.

The 3 girls on the right look about as happy to be carrying that sluttress as they would be cleaning out a toilet bowl.

Instinctively, they know the score. Purple hair is Queen for the day and commanding a surplus of attention from the masses. The rest of the girls are merely subjects that must support their brave queen, lest they become ostracized. If anyone were to question her motives or integrity, their stature in the cult would plummet.

Somewhere in their head is a voice, scheming on how to get their share of the attention pie.

And our boy on the left...haha, well, we all know what to make of him.

I think that guy has a zipper on his neckline....damn.

Somebody needs to go over this mattress with a UV Light and expose this girl for the slut that she is.

I'll say it again: Someone needs to take the piss out of these idiots and start carrying around another mattress. They could go one of two ways. The serious route would be to get ten big jocks to help one other jock out with his "burden". Make sure to take it to the busiest buildings/thoroughfares on campus such that it becomes a safety risk for evacuation from fires, etc. Escalate the whole thing so that eventually, no one is allowed to carry a mattress around.

The non-serious route would be to make it very playful. Take photos of it at keg parties and so on. Have free vodka shots for any passerby who would take photos with it. Turn the whole thing into a giant, mobile party.

What's wrong with the youth of today? Haven't they seen Animal House?

Would give the black girl in that picture the pipe for sure.

Would give the dude in the zipper-shirt a lead pipe to the forehead.

You risk the ire of the faculty white knighting. They're just as bad or worse in most cases.

Millennials strike me as the first generation that holds the same values as their parents instead of rebelling against them.

It could be what happens when single or dominating mothers try to be friends to their children rather than their parents: no generation gap.

The youth of today doesn't rebel against the status quo, they're it's most zealous supporters.

One example:
While in the past college students might have fought to be able to listen to or read whatever they want, the youth of today does shit like fight to get songs and authors banned or slapped with "trigger warnings".
There's a list of banned songs for my Uni's radio station for God's sake, organized by students. I think it started after that Robin Thicke song was released.

Every time I walk around my campus it's like I fell through a portal into retardoland.

Edit: Sort of ninja'd by AnonymousBosch. Was on the fence about this post but that confirms what I was thinking.

fuck this bitch.

Men need to create a database of all the fake rape accusers.

They google our name before they meet us up, we should do the same.

I know I already posted this today, but

This is the worst possible time to hold same values as your parents, and these people are doing it en masse, just with more fanaticism. I wonder if their children will be even worse. I shudder to think what a girl raised by a slutty single mother who was herself raised by a slutty single mother will be like. It will be like interacting with a feral animal.

[Foolsgo1d]

Showed my mother the pictures in this thread and the articles related. I asked her if this looks like a woman who was raped.

My mother was confused and disheartened to understand that this woman is a fraud and using "rape" as an excuse to attention whore because she felt guilty being smashed and dashed.

How can real rape victims look at women like her and think; "gee, wish I could do that".

[Feisbook Control]

Fisto: You might well be right, but that could be okay. Let the faculty overreach and show them to be the dour control freaks that they are. Let them turn themselves into Dean Wormer and co.

Millennials are in for a massive shock when they realise what a bunch of rubes they have been. They're going to be saddled with massive debt (personal and public) and degraded public institutions. Their entire society and culture has been completely poisoned, their inheritance pissed away by their parents' generation. They will try to pretend it isn't so, but the smack in the head they get from reality will be beyond anyone's powers of denial it will be so huge. They are going to be one very, very pissed off generation when they hit middle age and beyond, and due to their special snowflake status, they'll also be completely unable to deal with it. It will be at once terrible and amusing to behold.

[Truth Teller]

Evidence means nothing to these people. They'll make a witch hunt to bring the "rapist" to "justice."

It's still not as bad as when my college attempted to refuse legal representation to people going before the Inquisition, I mean the "Conduct Council."

Two new interviews with this girl and another feminist:
1.

2.

Quote:

AMY GOODMAN: I want to go to another story from Friday’s speak-out at Columbia. A woman named Jen read this story, which was submitted anonymously.

JEN: "This May, my boyfriend severely beat me in my dorm room. He punched me, choked me against my wall, threw me on the ground and pinned my neck to the floor with his foot. He threatened to kill me. A month before that, in a similar incident, he threw me down and threatened to rape me. That night in May, he hurt me so badly that I couldn’t move my neck or shoulders for days. Someone on my floor heard me screaming and reported it to my RA.

“Once Columbia had enough information, they issued a mutual no-contact order to both me and him. We broke it. I was completely alone and isolated and felt like I still needed him. I still loved him and just wanted the assault to go away. The penalty for breaking a no-contact order, whether complainant or respondent, is the same and can include suspension. The man who threatened to rape and kill me is protected under this policy, because he knows that I can’t give Columbia the information that they need to expel him without him turning me in for breaking the no-contact order. He will take me down with him if I pursue the case.

"It is completely unfair that Columbia holds abusers and their victims to the same punitive measures, when basic knowledge of cycles of abuse shows that victims often feel trapped and isolated, and therefore stay with the people who attack them."

AMY GOODMAN: One of the people who spoke out on Friday. Zoe, your response? And can you talk specifically about these no-contact orders?

ZOE RIDOLFI-STARR: So, in this case, the no-contact order, and in a many cases at Columbia, is just one example of the kinds of policies that place a really undue burden on the shoulders of the survivor, who is trying to, you know, just move forward with their lives, whether or not they choose to report. They’re trying to heal. They’re trying to move on. They’re trying to find peace and find ways to be happy again. In this case, you know, it prevents her from even reporting and from seeking help. This is a person who submitted an anonymous story, who actually stayed afterwards at the rally to speak to me and was desperate for help. So we’ve started working with her to try to explain what that process is like, how other students have tried to navigate this concern about the no-contact directive before, particularly in domestic violence cases. You know, there’s a very clear and well-documented cycle of abuse, where abusers manipulate victims and survivors, and people do end up speaking to their perpetrators again. That’s well known for anyone who’s been trained, even as I was just as an intern at a domestic violence agency a year ago, to understand; however, Columbia somehow can’t understand that, and their policies reflect their clear lack of sensitivity and training on these issues.

Great....

Now some asshole decided to do this mattress shit at my school.
