A University of Wisconsin-La Crosse student had a serious complaint for his campus’ official “Hate Response Team”: he was “very upset” by a Harry Potter mural in a college dorm.
The mural, in the Laux Residence Hall, depicts Neville Longbottom, a character from the Harry Potter films. The nerdy Neville was played by actor Matthew Lewis, who blossomed into a notable hunk post-puberty. The mural shows him as both a geeky boy and an attractive young man — transformed, according to the mural’s caption, by a stay at the Laux Residence Hall itself.
The depiction of this metamorphosis “represents our ideal society and everything I am trying to fight against,” wrote the offended student, whose name is redacted. “It represents white power. Man power. Cis power. Able power. Class power. ECT [sic] ect. I am angry that I know the people who put this mural up, and I am anger [sic] because I know the people who let this mural be put up. Like I said earlier, maybe I am being a little sensitive, but it is how I feel. This represents, to me, our society, and I do not want it up on this wall. Why do we need a BEFORE and AFTER?”
The complaint, unearthed by a Heat Street records request for reports of bias on UW-La Crosse’s campus, was filed in April. We confirmed the mural remains up, despite the student’s complaint. By deadline, neither of the students who painted Neville Longbottom’s poster had responded to Heat Street’s inquiry.
UW-La Crosse established its “Hate Response” Team more than a decade ago to address acts of bias, prejudice, intolerance and hate on campus.

Man up, snowflake.
You know, the one where 99% of the people could care less about your feelings?
As a manager, I have concern for my future. Will I need to mediate every disagreement between employees? "Mr. WBill....There's a White Man with pictures of his "Wife" and "Children" on his desk. This Cis-Normative, Patriarchal, Homophobic Racist Child-Exploitative behavior has GOT to STOP! What are you going to do about it?"
The day that happens, I retire. On the spot.
It represents a trigger for a sissy-git hissy-fit.
Yeah, sexual reproduction cares naught for gender pronouns.
Have the Regents board say his parents’ check bounced for insufficient funds and toss him out on his ear.
GROW UP,CUPCAKE! What will you do in a non PC workplace?
cis power? what is that? cistern power? she is against indoor plumbing?
she should be expelled for gross public stupidity.
must have something to do with fossil fuels or indoor plumbing. (she is against bathrooms)
I think the Left is banking on non-PC workplaces being eliminated in our Brave New World, if Hillary is able to cheat her way into the WH.
These people will soon BE the HR departments and lawyers of the company world. Don't let anybody tell you they are delicate and sensitive and truly offended.
They are the future brown shirt fascists whose aim is to suppress all dissension.
