I hope these vicious, ideologically possessed individuals involved in the SASH kangaroo courts are taken to the cleaners. They deserve to be on the other end of the boot. But of course they will be subject to a fair judicial procedure. Something which they denied their victims.
Great work Bettina, you have done more for real equality than anyone else in my 65 years. Exposing the outrageous over reach by the self righteous universities is a public service. The victim culture of Hate all White Males is a blight on our society.
On what may seem like an unrelated matter, the impending extradition of Assange, I would like to warn my fellow Aussies what is in the balance.
Forget journalism. Assange was, primarily, a whistleblower who reported the major crime of state murder to we citizens of the world.
Readers may believe we still have some rights, this conclusion based on the evidence of our previous entries here and elsewhere. We have been permitted this freedom because the globalists require more certainty as to their own immunity from prosecution and justice.
The moment Assange is extradited, he is the walking dead. So too are we.
Once Assange is gone, the globalists will commence moving on all citizens who are unvaccinated, or who have protested in any way.
We need to do what we can to have Assange returned to Australia, and appealing to Albanese is not one avenue where success can even be hoped for. The protest will need to be of considerable substance.
When I visited my sister who works at a European University she pointed out where a witch was hanged. And I was astonished when I visited Oxford University that they also had killed a witch. I was at the time working for human rights against compulsory psychiatric treatments including Lobotomies, which are still done at a leading hospital under the guidance of a major University psych dept. We established legal rights in 1986 although the Government stopped short of banning this treatment. Times haven't changed that much, and Universities are not so clever as they think. They are at times not much different to the people who in the past burnt innocent women at the stake.
You make a good point about Governments, they will always try this because its about power. The point about Human Rights is that they are supposed to be an inherent right beyond the law, and in the US Constitution it says they are granted by God. But after working for Human Rights for many years, I see these days its taken as a license for selfish people to ignore responsibilities. I wrote in one of my books about ego, not necessarily bad but it is when taken to extremes. Human rights don't excuse people to ignore other people's rights. But for ego driven people, helping others is just a sign of weakness.
Have you heard of Maurice Blackburn Lawyers who boldly advertise "WE FIGHT FOR FAIR"- Look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaYCnykSujY - as the Universities are pouring out dozens of young women lawyers then perhaps 'maurice b' MAY BE thinking "we fight for (the un-)fair sex". - Still it is worth testing the "WE FIGHT FOR FAIR" advertising.
These Kanga Courts are the executive arm of "Believe all Women". My sister was the manager of a women's refuge. She didn't and doesn't believe all of them and, professionally, never judged further than prima facia.
Hmm, I just spent a week cycling 200k hrough North Qld... but even on a bike I am thinking about all this stuff! It's a big part of my raison d'être, I'm sorry to say.
Despite the self-perceived virtue and righteousness of Critical Social Theory idealists, they fail to grasp the most fundamental standards of accountability when meting out justice, both legal and moral. The hypocrisy would be comical if it wasn't so destructive.
While ruthlessly scapegoating young men within the confines of the university bubble has long been a fantasy for many within the 'rainbows and unicorns' world of activist academics and students, like all fantasies, the actualisation rarely conforms with reality, let alone the expectations and values of mainstream society.
Perhaps the day is finally approaching when universities will stop submitting innocent young men to the injustice of a contrived Kangaroo Court, forfeiture of their career, and the immolation of their integrity and good character.
An inversion in which party is required to face legal scrutiny is the only thing that will change the behaviour of woke universities. Academic social justice warriors have invested decades inculcating their ideas into the culture of their respective universities, and will not give up the philosophical battle willingly.
I agree, Bettina. Universities are the endlessly bubbling brook of woke ideology that ultimately permeates its way into mainstream culture, so the change clearly needs to occur at the source.
In the U.S, there are similar communications strategies to the one you are suggesting, which are gaining meaningful traction. While there have been concerted efforts from a number of organisations, one that really stands out is PragerU who target young people with unique 5 minute videos on a range of social and political issues, and are now getting millions of views.
The minds of many students are being challenged - and changed - which is more than can be said for the majority of academics and administrators who are either an ideological lost cause, or paralysed with fear.
It is depressing, but things can change in ways we could never anticipate, and when we least expect it to happen.
The fact that the wokarati react so strongly to the counter narrative coming from public figures like you proves that there is cut through, and it is slowly eroding the philosophical hold they have over the collective mind of society.
The only advantage the wokerati have is repetition, scale and reach, which of course gives them a powerful strategic advantage, but there is little to no objective fact or reality underpinning their core premise. That makes them extremely vulnerable.
At the end of the day, their strategy and tactics come straight out of the marketing playbook, and just like a business without substance, no amount of marketing will save them from the inevitable revelation and humiliation that awaits them.
What is astonishing is the realisation that Universities are employing senior staff thick enough to think that their suppression of the process of justice was in the interests of a just society, and that they could ever get away with such stupid, callous and vindictive behaviour.
That's going a bit far! But certainly they were more open, intellectually rigorous places than today's higher education culture full of cowardly people keeping their heads down, not daring to challenge the ideologues controlling what you can do and say.
When these cases eventually come to a reconstituted court, and judicial justice is done, what will follow will be establishment of a register that identifies the perpetrators and ensures their behaviour follows them for life. Of cource, this is litigious terrain in itself but I don't care because litigators will then face pariah status themselves. The technique was developed in Utah and works like a charm.
I strongly suggest that zealots and fanatics refrain from engaging in abberations from natural justice.
I hope the universities get taken to the cleaners for their abuse of procedural fairness.

Thank the gods there are people like you, willing to slog through the mud and stand up for basic legal protections and due process.

One very scary factor is that Universities want to be able to influence government policy and direction. They consider themselves to be experts.
I believe they want priority not equality.

It would be interesting to approach them. I might give them a call.

Tina, thank you once again.
Good to see cracks appearing in the dam wall, no doubt aided by your crystal clear analytical thinking and logic. When do you rest?

We aren't there yet but you can all help by circulating my blog, particularly within universities.

PragerU is doing a great job. But you are right that most young people are a lost cause even before they get to uni. Depressing!

When men predominated in universities they were places of learning, exploration, research and creativity.
That's going a bit far! But certainly they were more open, intellectually rigorous places than today's higher education culture full of cowardly people keeping their heads down, not daring to challenge the ideologues controlling what you can do and say.
"That's going a bit far!"
How? Telling the truth is going too far?
This is very encouraging. We have to keep fighting this. Thanks
