U. of Wisconsin moves 70-ton Chamberlin Rock off campus after 'woke' student backlash (Taliban, free speech)

A racist boulder. lol The dems have lost their minds. lol This stuff is ridiculous. I'd have been embarrassed to tell anyone I thought a rock was racist. Please don't say the air is racist or some leftist nut will try to eliminate it. lol Crazy left people. Idiots.

Not Democrats. Black and minority students. Who felt a monument once called N***** Rock should not have a prominent place on campus.

I think it is overkill and do not agree. In fact I am curious how anyone found out about a nick name from 100 years ago. I suspect the nick name was kept alive in some corners.

Imagine the irony if there had been an accident, and a black worker was crushed while moving the rock.

It's Madison WI. The people who are liberals there are crazy. Enough said.

Wait until the dimwits decide trees all need to be taken down because ya know....history.

Imagine getting offended over a giant rock! This is so petty and pathetic, why are these minority students being taught to be such overly sensitive sissies?

Are you sure they were minority students? Many times the whiners are white SJW's.

Well I guess the good news is there must be literally zero racism in Wisconsin. Seriously, if relocating a rock because someone once called it an offensive word in the Jim Crow era is the number one priority of 'anti-racists' in Wisconsin, that can only mean that there is absolutely no racism whatsoever in that state.

And if there is any residual racism still around in Wisconsin, maybe activists should focus on that instead of bizarre non-issues, because all relocating a rock is going to do is convince sane people that racism has been vanquished in Wisconsin.

I would sarcastically suggest to the Woke idiots to cancel rocks entirely but then they might try to do it.
