So is sex work shameful or not? Make up your mind guys
Sex work is fine. Billionaires supporting a fascist genocide is not.
So why bring sex work into it?
I don’t know anything about what the OP was referring to, so I couldn’t tell you.
Oh, so you jumped in to defend someone while, admittedly, having no idea what was going on? I’m confused.
I don’t need the context of the situation to know either statement is true. If the guy had something with sex workers, I’d need more context to actually criticize those actions. As it stand though, sex work is fine, billionaires are bad, and billionaires supporting fascist genocides makes me wonder why we aren’t drawing and quartering.
Bc Robert Kraft was caught in a sting in Florida getting a handjob. The manager and owner of the parlor got charged but the billionaire got away with it.
Bu-bu-bu-but my grandstanding!
Yeah this argument can fuck right off with that self-righteous snark. This is pretty cut and dry. Being a sex worker is not shameful. Being a rich-bitch actual confirmed asshole partied with anti-sexwork rhetoric politics accused of alleged sex work IS shameful, and additionally funny. Stop sucking billionaire cock. It’s funny because of the hypocrisy; not the sex work.
Stop sucking billionaire cock.
Unless you get paid for it.

“He should be insulted for it because he spent time with some people who oppose it!” lol. Imagine typing this out while accusing other people of grandstanding.
yawn
Spent some time with people who oppose it
I think I know the type of person I’m talking to now.
Yes, I’m sure you’re projecting “the type of person” I am now too.
More a question of the man’s financial priorities.
Less billionaires, corporations and hedge funds involved in higher education would actually be a turn for the better.
This is why we need to strengthen department of education. Otherwise these asshole billionaires will run education system like theirs own fiefdoms.
Of course repubes want to get rid of department of education. Perfectly on brand.
Billionaires certainly despise unions, profiting by exploiting working people is fundamental to their business models. So Republicans of course loathe unions and thus degradation and control of public education, public school teachers has been a running long term goal.

factoriesSchools are the foot in the door for free marketeers. Why respect teachers, hire more staff and better fund schools, create communities, when you can cut costs, treat kids and education itself as products, and send those savings into the pockets of just a few people.
Yes, tell the administrators to whip those students into shape, that’ll bring them around.
Certainly won’t have any blowback in the least.
No idea who he is but good for him. If more of the aristocracy announce themselves we will know who to not give a fuck about.
No idea how he got rich, but he owns the NE Patriots (US) football team
We need to just, like, cancel money. Fuck these twats and their useless ignorant influence. How dare you put education on the line to defend genocide
garbage human
No relation to Kraft/Heinz, so continue to enjoy your boxed mac n cheese.
I will continue to not watch football o7
Schools are taking people’s free speech! Wait, I’m not donating to schools until they do it more! But to those I dislike!
He’s pulling support from the school that’s cracking down so heavily and violently on the protests? What’s he for I’m having trouble understanding the logic here.

Privatize everything free market capitalists have been chipping away at K-12 for some time now. Charter
factoriesSchools are primo examples of divide and conquer public education.
Nah he is sad they aren’t going harder on them
Kraft echoed the sentiment in a statement issued through an organization he founded called the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism. “I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country,” he wrote. “I am no longer confident that Columbia can protect its students and staff and I am not comfortable supporting the university until corrective action is taken.”
There’s something inherently creepy about a guy who isn’t Jewish starting up a foundation called “Combat Antisemitism” and then lean really, really hard on the “Combat” part without seeming to give much of a shit about the Antisemitism part.
I get strong “Can’t wait for Israel to be obliterated by war and bring on the Second Coming!” vibes from this.

Uncomfortable billionaire is at least a step in the right direction

So beat down the protests harder or you don’t get money? That’s his argument?
So he’s pulling support from the school, effectively he supports the protesters and staff who walked and not the school who is trying to make them go away. I don’t care about his mouth words, his actions matter more.
So he will stop donating. Funding is not what he is doing. The school is funded without this schmuck.
Columbia has a $13.6B endowment, which has consistently grown at 8-10% annually.
Kraft has historically donated in the $5M range annually. So, less than 1% of what the university earns on a portfolio whose principle never gets touched.
I’m pulling my funding from Kraft goods
