    Folks on the left and the right have made up their minds already about Ryan Bounds, and that's fine. But if you're in the middle, feel free to check out this @ATLblog post of mine, which analyzes - and links to - all of the underlying #RyanBounds op-eds.https://twitter.com/atlblog/status/1020411130001395713 …

        You act like its a normal thing to write racist things in college. It is not. If you think it is, that says a lot about you.

        I think David is just afraid of what would happen to his circle of friends in NYC if they knew what a right wing chud he is

        It's amazing how FedSoc churns out the worst people in existence, all of them trying to turn the clock back to gilded ages.

        Oh but only for Those People. He's happy to live in his bubble with his gay family and shield himself from the consequences of his poison ideology.

        I read your article. You didn’t prove a thing. It was like trying to create a beautiful photograph. Required multiple filters & blurring of the image. The reality is nowhere near as pretty. Your bias was as obvious as your manipulation of what was “really” meant. 👎🏻

        Nicely put. Also -- "That’s how college kids write, long on passion and short on perspective," seems to accurately describe some of your co-editors at ATL as well as college kids. *cough* @ElieNYC *cough*

        I read your blog and I liked the perspective thanks for info! Unlike the angry commenters I didn’t see bias just frustration with how it was handled.

        Thanks for this. I'm so upset about what happened to Ryan. At Stanford he was always so thoughtful and considerate. BTW, the Smoke Signals thing was about poking Stanford over their change of mascot from the Indians to the Cardinal. Just anti-PC stuff.
