And no, she’s not a racist.

Via Turning Point:

    Piper Harron, a professor at the University of Hawaii, is now on the Professor Watchlist for saying white men should be banned from teaching. According to her Professor Watchlist profile:

    “Dr. Piper Harron is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Hawaii. Harron wrote an article about how white, male professors should resign or take a demotion in order to improve diversity. Harron wrote, ‘If you are a white cis man (meaning you identify as male and you were assigned male at birth) you almost certainly should resign from your position of power. That’s right, please quit. Too difficult? Well, as a first step, at least get off your hiring committee, your curriculum committee, and make sure you’re replaced by a woman of color or trans person.’ She also wrote, ‘What can universities do? Well, that’s easier. Stop hiring white cis men (except as needed to get/retain people who are not white cis men) until the problem goes away. If you think this is a bad or un-serious idea, your sexism/racism/transphobia is showing.’”

And in this corner, we have a "Professor of Mathematics" who believes that 2 plus 2 equals 5.  And if you don't agree, you must be a racistsexistbigothomophobe or whatever is the fabricated epithet du jour.

George Orwell, it turns out, was an optimist.

Would it be presumptuous of me to assume that this nitwit would also like to 'un-fight' the Civil War because war is always bad, and a lot of 'White Men' fought it?

If this silly broad is upset that the white man is taking teaching jobs from the indigenous people of the island, she should look in the mirror.
