Biology professor is slammed over sick joke about Trump's assassination attempt

A Canadian biology professor shocked social media with their comment on the assassination attempt against Donald Trump.

Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old would-be assassin who shot Donald Trump, opened fire at the former president with an AR-style rifle from a roof 130 yards from the rally stage in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday at 6.15pm.

Many have used the attempt on a former president's life to ask for toned down rhetoric from both sides of the political spectrum.

Shoshanna Jacobs, a biology professor at Ontario's University of Guelph, received condemnation from all sides after quote-tweeting a video of the shooting, when noting how nearly Trump missed being directly hit.

Jacobs - a professor of integrative biology - wrote on the social media platform X: 'When 4 inches really matters'. The professor, who has taught at the school since 2012 and uses they/them pronouns, was quickly vilified for her joke.

'Wow, you really are an awful person,' wrote one X user. 'People died today. But hey, you've got jokes.'

'Do you support assassinations and murders @uofg? Why do you have professor supporting criminality teaching at University of Guelph?'

Another wrote: 'Educator? I seriously hope your vile nasty take gets you fired'.

Donald Trump's family and supporters have slammed the liberal media for downplaying Saturday evening's assassination attempt - and for running tone-deaf opinion pieces in the wake of the atrocity.

Speaking of revisionist wokism, this is exampled by the wanton warring wordcraft of a wokeism warrior against what God ordained, a feminist who is employed from a college founded in 1824 by Episcopal Bishop Philander Chase, but now has a potential candidate ("Brianna Thompson") for the office of implementation WOKE policies under the auspices of a Council of Transexuality:

"...intersections with race, ethnicity, coloniality, class and ability, the sex/gender system of oppression has long served as a taxonomizing apparatus. And yet, the literary, in league with anticolonial, civil rights and LGBTQ social movements,...animates the liberatory potential of imagining embodied relations otherwise... representations of gender and sexuality can leverage critiques against normativity...Taking our transnational cue from subjugated knowledges and intersectional epistemologies, we’ll constellate the diverging genealogies and methodologies...
Against the traffic of binary opposition, we’ll index the possibilities of intimacy and performativity... As a class collective, our aim is to read and reread as well as write and rewrite texts that interrogate and complicate how gender and sexuality, as contested sites of pleasure and pain, are embodied and experienced."

This counts toward the methods requirement for the major. Prerequisite: ENGL 103 or 104. Open only to first-year and sophomore students.

Author is Brianna Thompson, who teaches courses in American women’s literature, queer theory and utopias/Afrofuturism at Kenyon college (founded by Episcopal Bishop in 1824).

Thank you for such a well researched post.

The drivel and word salad bs that spews from this person outshines anything the propagandists in Stalin’s Kremlin of Hitler’s Third Reich could ever have come up with.

This is the kind of bulls**t they read to you just as they’re putting the pistol to the nape of your neck.
