Callous woke activist and assistant anthropology professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tamar Shirinian, has been suspended with termination proceedings against her ongoing, for vile comments made about Charlie Kirk’s children in the wake of his gruesome assassination.
For context, she slandered Kirk as a “disgusting psychopath,” argued that Kirk’s children would be “better off without him,” and made vile comments about his widow. In reaction, the university condemned her absurd comments and placed her on administrative leave while initiating firing proceedings. Additionally, prominent figures in both the university administration and state government slammed these comments as unacceptable.
In any case, the horrible professor launched on a woke tirade against Kirk and his family. She raved, “The world is better off without him in it. Even those who are claiming to be sad for his wife and kids… like, his kids are better off living in a world without a disgusting psychopath like him.”
Still not done, she turned her attention to Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow. Continuing her profanity-laced comment, Shirinian argued, And his wife, well, she’s a sick f**k for marrying him, so I don’t care about her feelings.”
Firing back at the nasty professor, UT System President Randy Boyd made it clear that these comments had crossed the line. He noted, “Celebrating or advocating violence and murder is reprehensible and has no place at the University of Tennessee.”
Building on his previous point, the wise administrator stated, “UT Knoxville is actively investigating the matter and will take decisive action to ensure it is addressed with the full weight and attention it deserves.”
Announcing the consequences of these vile comments, the university noted, “The university has taken swift action against a faculty member who has failed to meet our expectations for civil engagement. Her actions endorsing violence and murder do not represent the university or our values.”
Explaining the swift reaction to this unacceptable breach of common decency, the university added, “The faculty member is out of the classroom, placed on administrative leave, and termination proceedings have begun.”
Winding down its comments, the official university statement noted that “Teaching and shaping the lives of young people is core to the mission of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. We have a great responsibility as educators of America’s future leaders to make sure students have a healthy educational environment in which to learn, wrestle with difficult issues, and express themselves civilly. We take that responsibility seriously.”
Similarly horrified by these comments, Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee issued a heartfelt statement. He said, [First Lady Maria Lee] & I ask Tennesseans to join us in lifting up Charlie’s wife Erika, two children & entire family to the Lord, and to be in prayer for our Nation that is in desperate need of God’s healing.”
Adding to his previous statement, the Tennessee Governor said, I’m grateful to all of TN’s university leaders who are taking appropriate action. Please continue praying for Charlie Kirk’s family and for God’s healing on our nation.”
Woke Professor is probably just another turd floating around in the cesspool that used to be institutes of higher learning.
Yes, an Unemployed “assistant anthropology professor”..............
No More!
As many have commented, there has been a sea change and this will no longer be tolerated!
A pig ugly anthropology professor? Geez, what has been seen can't be unseen.
If I was a university president and I wanted to cut headcount but having issues because of tenured staff, this is a great method. Let the wokesters operate out of any safe harbor and fire them, saving $$$.
Welcome to consequences culture, you fugly POS.
Study the anthropology of THAT, Lollabrigida.
If I had to bet, I’d bet that the professor is a guy who likes to play dress-up on a regular basis.
I would feel sorry for her being born so ugly but she turned herself into a true monster in her actions.
Saint Teresa did the opposite and was never an outwardly beautiful woman. And many men like Jimmy Durante were loved but never mistaken for Brad Pitt for looks.
The last name Shirinian (and its variant Shirinyan) is likely of Armenian origin, which explains the fugly.
I figured so. “Assistant” = no tenure. “Anthropology” = cultural anthropology, ie jargon-choked gobbledygook bearing no relation to actual anthropology. “Informed by queer theory, feminist theory, psychoanalysis, and Marxist thought.” Laughable. You get enough of these barnacles on the academic hull and pretty soon there’s no more hull.
Cher and Cher alike.................
Check the immigration status. Look like an Iranian.
It would be such karma if that freak was deported back to a Mooselimb country where they know what to do with woke lesbian Marxist. /spit
The world is on notice that negative Charlie Kirk comments are the third rail of social media. Why, then, do people still make them? You’d think that the most ardent lefty nutcase would want to keep his/her/its job over the presumed dopamine hit from making a derogatory post to the great unwashed social media sphere. But they keep doing it. Why?
When colleges and Universities realized they could accept students who couldn’t read at a fifth grade level and put them in ‘grievance’ majors - and charge them the exact same bloated tuition - (thanks to corrupt guaranteed ‘loan programs’ - these schools had to hire lots of professors... The question is: did they break pattern and still hire the best and brightest? Think about it. It was all downhill from there.
