Even taken in good faith, what value is a university supposed to get out of a lecture from some loser kid who's only accolades come from a controversial trial?
What could he possibly have to say of any significance or importance?

This is my take.
Why can't I speak? I'm significantly more qualified than a dipshit kid who carried a rifle to a protest and killed people.
Accomplishments:
- Never murdered anybody
- I collected all 151 pokemon legally on the original Pokemon red.

If you're American, then I'm calling bullshit, unless you were living in Japan at the time. Mew was not catchable in the original red and blue, and the only way to get it legitimately was to attend certain Japan-only Nintendo events, where a Nintendo official added it to your cartridge.
Here in the states, the only ways to get Mew at the time were GameSharks or trade, but unless you traded with someone who could get to Japan and was willing to give up their event exclusive Mew, it was probably just from somebody else he used a GameShark.
Damn it you're right. Now I remember how I got Mew. I abused the missingno hack.
I resign from my talk.
Another speaker cancelled, love to see it
I say recognising and acknowledging that you're wrong qualifies you even more
Are you going to walk out now after that questioning?
I ran hours ago and now I'm tweeting on social media about how I'm a victim to this injustice
There's no wrong way to play a game. Whether the devs intended for it or not, you played the game as it shipped. Feel proud.

In a sane world he would tell a heartfelt cautionary tale.

Lol, they chased him when he left, too.

This does put a smile on my face :)
Lol at those band geeks. I'd have totally brought my flute.
This kid ruined his life and can't see it.
He ruined more than his life and deserves everything he has earned.
He probably already has a cushy job waiting at fox or newsmax
Iirc those people already used and dropped him.
You need a personality to succeed in right wing media. It’s the only qualification.
His only option right now is wingnut welfare, so that's where he's headed.
He'll run for office in the near future. Bet on it.
I think he’s already expired goods. I’d love to see how much they had to give him as a speaker’s fee. Someone with an educational affiliation should reach out and see the minimum he’ll accept.
He's just into ruinsmaxxing
Love to see it
My God the conservatives are fragile
This is literally their tactic. Talk AT people, not to them or engaged with them in any form of debate. Flee or deflect when you don't have or know the answer. Rinse and repeat. They don't have the knowledge or capacity to do this, they are just screeching babies. They're cognitively limited per their world view so doomed from the start unfortunately. Mental health y'all 🗿
This guy needs to be wiped from our collective memories and taken off the streets so he can't pose a threat to anybody else's future.
He's coming to Kent State next month, hoping the students there give him the same treatment.
It would be hilarious if hundreds of students came like this.
Don't worry. They're just "keeping the peace".
It's not like they're gonna accidentally do a Kyle Rittenhouse
Kent State, home of the infamous 60's protest where students were killed. Are you fucking joking?
Interesting fact: Founding members of the band Devo, Jerry Casale and Mark Mothersbaugh, were art students at Kent State University when the May 4, 1970 shootings happened. It's a big part of why a lot of their early music was such angry, bizarre, art-punk.
It also explains their name. Devo is short for "de-evolution" the idea that society was devolving.
Casale said “All I can tell you is that it completely and utterly changed my life. I was a white hippie boy and then I saw exit wounds from M1 rifles out of the backs of two people I knew.” He added, “I stopped being a hippie and I started to develop the idea of devolution. I got real, real pissed off.”
Joe Walsh the musician was also there.

I wish I was.
Because of the shooting, Kent State is frequently targeted for conservative bullshit like this.
Look up the "gun girl" march from a few years ago.
I think if I were a student there today, I would burn down the Dean's office.
If you are filming something, please don't yell into the mic. You are literally right next to it.
You feel good, I get it. But I don't care about you yelling "yeah". I want to hear what you are filming.
Wow, Twitter is truly a mega-maga shithole now. Those comments, yeesh
Twitter is a right wing boot licking snowflake haven, led by the king of the emotional snowflakes, Emo Musk
