Kansas student expelled for calling his ex "psycho bitch" on twitter

A University of Kansas student was expelled for calling his ex-girlfriend a “psycho bitch” on Twitter. The tweet, which did not mention the woman by the name—and was not visible to her—is disallowed under Title IX, KU has argued.
The matter is now before the Kansas Court of Appeals. Both the American Civil Liberties Union and the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education have filed briefs in support of the former student, Navid Yeasin.
I love FIRE. They are the only sane voice in the jungle of activist idiots that our universities have become.

It's not social media that's the problem, it's the reactive and overreaching people on social media that call for justice.

He should get in trouble for stating the obvious. I mean she is a woman, therefore she is a phycho bitch

I'd say expulsion is letting him off easy. The first amendment doesn't give you the right to bully and cyber-assault like he did. This type of virtual rape needs to be punished or it will only continue.

If calling an ex a psycho bitch is illegal, lock me up and throw away the key. I've dated some psyco bitches in my day.

Dude it's a joke. That's it. See how the language gets more hyperbolic til the end and then there's a huge logical leap with a rape accusation? It's supposed to be making fun of the victim culture.
There's no hook, no trap, just a tongue in cheek joke.
I really shouldn't have to explain this.

Another reason why I don't understand why so many people want their real identity out there for everyone to see. Use an anonymous profile and you don't have this problem. BUt in this social media obsessed society, everyone wants to have their name out there so they can get recognized. Well guess what, between the ages of 15 and 30, most of the things you do and think don't need to be recognized by the rest of the world.

You sound like someone who really understands the point of social media

I've been called a troll for making obvious jokes too. It's just how this place operates.

I'll go farther. It's the fact that these batshit crazy cat ladies and pathetic little men who think that sucking up to women will get them somewhere (who have always existed and everyone ignored) now have a voice, which amplified by social media and their sheer shrillness, people now think their warped opinions actually matter.
"Help, the crazy cat lady thinks that socks with toes are a plot by demons today! They must be banned."
It's absurd.
Let them rant. It is their right. But once they are done, bop them on the nose and say "no one cares what you think." And get back to living life.
