The discussion was about rape. He said, 'rape culture' isn't real. Some feminists took offense. He was asked not to say that anymore. He kept saying it. The professor banned him for offending women.

Professors are free to censor students who make other students uncomfortable whether they are racist *******s or sexist twits. I'm not going to lose any sleep over this manchild being unable to share his Very Important Opinions in the conference section of a lecture-seminar course.
Professors at PRIVATE universities can ban student speech. Professors at PUBLIC universities can not. So you're against free speech at universities?
On the quad no. In a classroom when it doesn't relate to the subject being taught and is a disruption, yes.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

“There are several survivors of sexual assault in our conference, and you have made them extremely uncomfortable with what they see as not only your undermining incidents of rape, but of also placing too much emphasis on men being unfairly charged with rape,” Savery wrote to True. “The entire conference without exception, men as well as women, feel that your presence makes them uncomfortable enough that they would rather not be there if you are there, and they have said that things you have said in our conference have made them so upset that they have difficulty concentrating in other classes. I, as conference leader, have to do what is best for the well-being of the entire class, and I am therefore banning you from conference for the remainder of the semester.”Clara, a freshman in the class True was banned from, told BuzzFeed News that at first, True’s “controversial” points were welcomed and prompted interesting discussions. (Her name has been changed.) Eventually, Clara said, True’s arguments went from productive to “increasingly harmful and offensive.” She said True upset students when he said that it was understandable that the Holocaust happened given that people are not often taught to question systems of oppression, and made other comments about race and class. But the turning point was when he refused to stop discussing his beliefs on rape, even though sexual assault survivors told him outside of class that it made them uncomfortable.
“That’s when he crossed the border from his right to have his own beliefs to harassment,” said Clara. She said that she never felt physically unsafe, but that she is a survivor of sexual assault and True’s comments made it hard for her to concentrate in class as well as other courses.

Originally posted by Imran Siddiqui View PostPut to you this way, which may be easier to consider. After Proposition 8 in California, a lot of LGBT advocates wanted to retaliate against people who gave money to Prop8. In fact there were businesses who did as well. Do you believe that businesses are not being honest in their advertising if they do not disclose that they gave money to Prop8? I'm sure there are likely people who want to know what businesses gave money to the proposition and wouldn't want to support them.
But once it is made known, either through the business's voluntary disclosure on its own, or through muckraking or some other means, I would have no problem with people organizing an effective boycott of that business. Boycotting can be a means to an end to a cause for justice, equality, or civil rights. For example, blacks who rode segregate buses during the Civil Rights movement of 1950s and 1960s, organized a boycott of their city buses to protest racial segregation.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.
