Reddit is the sewer of the Internet.
That said, this will be handled and the student likely expelled as soon as the proper investigation and process is done. A&M can't just boot someone without following the required procedure.
And in this case, doesn't matter if he was harassing Jews, Christians, Muslims, Republicans, Democrats, or people with a booth about gardening. His behavior was unacceptable and he needs to kicked out.

For anyone who didn't, wow. Insane. We need to investigate AIPAC's control of Texas A&M now:
The persistence of Left-Wing conspiracy theories is so insane. Did we put a campus in Qatar at the direction of AIPAC, which apparently now controls everything in this country?
I'm also surprised more people didn't pick up on the pronunciations of the "ginger" in the video.

I dont think most of these people really have any real-world ties to their world views. They just gleaned it from the internet, which is unfortunate.
I guess Im trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, which I'm uncertain that they deserve.
I was 16 when 9/11 happened and it was shocking enough. I never thought that we'd have kids matriculated at A&M that were openly anti-jew and supporting Hamas.
That, for me, and all of us I suppose, sucks. But here they go again, with their own words. Hard to spin that.

95% certain that dude was standing outside the football games holding a Free Palestine sign. It was pretty obvious he was doing it to impress the chick beside him. Apparently, he took the full brainwashing before he hit it and quit it.

They literally hate TexAgs. They are at home on Reddit/texasa&m
I've been permabanned from Reddit for "promoting hate".
Anyhow, here's the r/Aggies thread about the incident.
What did you do, say there are only two genders, and offend the transmissions?

This guy acted like a jackass and he deserves some sort of school related disciplinary treatment but some of you need to calm down with acting like this was some sort of "the gestapo comes to college station" moment.
Demanding immediate expulsion for inflammatory political related speech is pretty damn ridiculous.
That wasn't a "discussion". It was a digital ambush. It was heckling and mocking.Wes97 said:
His activity was out of line. He deserves some sort of punishment.
But he wasn't just randomly accosting students wearing a star of david or yarmulke on campus. They set up a booth in the msc in order to generate discussion. You do that and you open yourself up to people "discussing" things with you that might have the opposite viewpoint. You can't set up a booth like that and demand that only people that agree with your viewpoint are allowed to come over there.
And again because I know that it is coming again from the disingenuous crowd…. this guy took it WAY too far.

Idiotic speech is protected. Even idiotic speech wrapped in boorish behavior. Like it or not.
but you do have to ask yourself: how do people with such obvious character and cognitive flaws get accepted to your university in the first place?

This sounds a lot like leftist complaints that certain speech equates to violence. .

If the university has rules against the verbal accosting and harassment of other students then it really doesn't matter what he said. If they deem he crossed that line and the punishment could include discipline up to expulsion then he's subject to what the university decides. To me it's not a free speech or protected speech issue. It's a behavior issue.

There was literally a post saying to deport all muslims in the Iran war thread.
AggieCVQ said:
If you were literate, I have said multiple times on this very thread, that some disciplinary action should follow the harassment.
Was this some gotcha I didn't understand? Like no, you don't get to harass people in public?
