[KnickstapeCity]

@KnickstapeCity I'm a CAC because I don't fukk with Islam? Make it make sense.

Also, I've posted myself on this forum. I ain't got shyt to hide lil nikka.

Islam is CAC rhetoric, nikka. All the Abraham religions are.

it seems unnecessary to have done it when you know you're going to offend people

corny bill maher/south park bro edgelord atheist shyt

You really believe you can live in a world that doesn't offend people? I thought the whole purpose of college was to expand thinking.

going out of your way to offend religious people is petty to me.

i am not muslim, but i would not go out of my way to try and offend a muslim person just because i disagree with some of their customs. as long as they aren't hurting people let them live.

Ah shyt, a MIAC school. Played them nikkas in college

It's a serious problem when colleges don't allow exploration or critical thinking. 60 Minutes just had an episode a few weeks ago on professors being scared to say things because of the level of political correctness. Closed mindedness opens the door for folks like Turning Point USA, flat-earthers, Trump style anti-vaxers, etc.

peoples religious views are sacred breh. i think there is room to be tolerant and also allow for exploration and critical thinking.

You missed my point and this isn't an example of the professor going out her way to offend people. She was an art history professor. What is the point of teaching history if it's restricted? Just think about that. If the picture was sexual in nature or degrading however it may be I would see your point.

She was an art history teacher apparently.

If she was teaching a class specifically on Islamic Art, showing historical depictions of Mohammed would be fair game. Even then it's only responsible to have a disclaimer to all students that plan to take the course, that potentially upsetting images would be shown.

But if you're just teaching Art History 201, the subject is long and wide enough (going back thousands of years, hundreds of cultures) that to find time to show a depiction of Mohammed... You're just looking for attention. And she got some.

She could have done the following instead:

1. Include links to depictions of Mohammed in supplementary material
2. Just speak on it
3. Gotten tenure first.

But she didn't. Dumb ass.

You don’t think it’s ok to just ask and give a generic warning before sensitive/offensive material to the class in general before each lesson?

Singling out Muslims and being extra careful for them alone would be also a problem.

History is full of bad things and stuff people don’t know about until they learn it. Most who know still would rather not talk about or see until it’s right in front of them.

And religion is a big part of that history so in order to teach history I think you gotta ask students to leave their religious beliefs at the door.

Just like during the class on Christianity/Jesus the teacher had to be super careful not to offend in a majority NON Christian audience (I think most college age Americans are atheists) but still covered everything

Students could walk out of the room if they get made or debate after class with the professor on the topic but you can’t actually stop class and dictate the lesson or tell the teacher what he can’t do in a class you pay to attend..... you’re just kinda in for the ride.

Muslims are too fukking sensitive. They should not be included in anything.

Out of all the religions, I think I despise Islam the most on a global scale.

I think it's because they take it the most literal.

Aka we’re the only ones left who actually believe in our religion and stand for something

These same posters have no problem disrespecting Jesus … make it make sense …
