George Ciccariello-Maher, is an associate professor of Politics and Global Studies at Drexel.

quote:

On Sunday he posted a tweet that read, “Some guy gave up his first class seat for a uniformed soldier. People are thanking him. I’m trying not to vomit or yell about Mosul.”

quote:

Around Christmas he tweeted, “All I want for Christmas is white genocide.”

quote:

the professor isn’t backing down, saying in a statement, “I sent a personal tweet in reaction to what I considered a smug and self-congratulatory gesture by a first class passenger toward a uniformed soldier. Maybe predictably, my tweet has since been fed into and misrepresented by the outrage machine that is right wing media

He also tweeted he wanted white genocide. He should be up for public beheading

Free speech and blah blah blah aside, I'm not sure how you can misrepresent that.

This a-hole would know what smug and self congratulatory behaviors look like. He may have a point.

Dude sounds like a douche.

That said, I do roll my eyes at gestures like this. Military hero worship is really silly. I wonder how many people realize they are usually buying a beer for a desk jockey. I should know...

His excuses regarding the white genocide quip were laughable.

Had a white republican made the opposite tweet he'd not be supporting that with rants about protected free speech.

That dude never played dodge ball and has never been punch squarely in the nose. These two events are important to the development of sane people.

The Far Left wants so bad for the open hate of USA service members to be en vogue like the late 60s...

Far Left's shite stinks worse than the rotting corpses of the dead skunks I will be driving around all this spring.

This is why the need ejector seats in the bathroom. When he went to vomit for this atrocity they should have pulled the plug on this fairy mid-air.

First time I have ever even slightly agreed with anything you have ever posted.

After my 6 years in the Navy, I gathered a healthy respect for and against the Military and those who serve and have served.

I have found that the more someone talks about their service it usually directly relates to how little they have usually done.

He seems like about 99 percent of all teachers on any campus.

Yeah, but it's the left sjw crusaders that broke this barrier down long ago. You post something 'controversial' (even if your opinion) and they will call for your head, your job, your families job and won't stop until they take you down.

You reap what you sow
