    After reading the texts, i agree with your take.

    Seems whoever they were calling a clown didnt like it and is using flimsy pretext to punish these people

      I mean, I definitely wouldn’t like it if I were the administrator of the university and those texts came to light.

      My dad told me about this type of situation once when I was much younger. I got in an altercation about something and explained it to my dad, and he was like, well what did you think was gonna happen. I said but no, I was right, means I’m justified. He said yeah that makes it 10 times worse. If you call somebody out on something like that, and you’re wrong, it might be a big deal or it might not. If you are right, it’s pretty certain that it’s gonna be a big deal and you should expect some results from what you said.

      And lo… I was enlightened.

      I mean this is different, that was deliberately in public on my end. When you’re texting your friends you should say whatever the fuck you want to say and if your employer is doing something illegal in service of a genocide and goes through your texts, for some reason, and finds out you don’t like it, I’m not gonna be the one to tell you that’s your fault. But I do understand why the employer is extremely mad about it and saying some trumped-up bullshit reason why it’s officially not okay.
