I am almost 50 years old. I have learned more about human nature in the past two years than in my entire life combined.

Praying for humanity. 🙏
- There is no better way to increase racial tensions on campus than to tell students and staff that that they can “solve racism” by racializing all interpersonal interactions.
- I may no longer be an employee of @smithcollege but I will always be an alum. Thank you Smith College for teaching me about injustice and the power of moral courage. bariweiss.substack.com/p/whistleblowe…
- Any ideology that convinces people it’s perfectly okay (virtuous, even) to support or engage in mean, harassing behavior against another human being is not a good one. Period.
- Another brave individual sticks his neck out to protect his students. Thank you, @bariweiss for giving a platform bariweiss.substack.com/p/i-refuse-to-…
- Woke is killing more than logic, reason & civil liberties. It’s also killing art, music, sports, comedy & eros (a few examples). These losses are not negligible. They are essential to happiness, connection, and helping us endure the inevitable human suffering we all face.
- The other day I asked my child’s cardiologist where he is getting his information about COVID vaccines for children ages 12-15. His reply: “the news.”
- The repeated insistence that our ability or willingness to engage in these performative rituals as a continued condition of our employment is a potent brand of harassment - the kind everyone colludes in because we are too afraid not to.
- Thank you for all your support. I really feel like this is a team effort, and that makes me feel more confident about my decision. We can do this. ❤️
- Amazing, hopeful, and good.
- Left/Right is irrelevant. Vaxxed / unvaxxed is irrelevant. This is about authoritarianism. It creeps in through a seemingly small door and soon fills the entire castle.
- Is this ok with everybody? Have we all been so cowed by shame/guilt and the “rules” of a vicious ideology that we cannot talk about the obvious othering of whites? Everyone concerned about racism should be concerned about this. Everyone. This too, is racism. #StateTheObviousNew York: #BLM protesters tell white people dining outside to “get the f— out of New York” & that their white-owned taquerias aren’t welcome. The crowd chant along. x.com/justericthomas…
- A sign at my kid’s school. I really understand why he said this now. It’s true.
- Hey everyone GoFundMe has placed my fundraiser under review and there is now a hold on *all* funds. I fear it is for ideological reasons. If so, it shows what we are up against. For now, please donate through my PayPal. paypal.com/paypalme/jodis…
