"He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not." (Isaiah 53:3)

We posted yesterday a series of ads to Facebook to promote our online MA Theology and MA Catechetics and Evangelization programs.

One ad was rejected, and an administrator of our Facebook page noticed this rejection today. The reason given for the rejection?

"Your image, video thumbnail or video can't contain shocking, sensational, or excessively violent content."

Here is a picture of the San Damiano cross that causes the rejection (WARNING: Excessive violence)

David Hogg Thinks His Conspiracy Theorist Trolls Are Full of Shit - Motherboard

 This attitude is consistent with Hogg's previous declarations. He's gone after everyone from former sheriff and noted media hated David Clarke--he said "You disgust me" after Clarke tweeted that the Parkland teens were connected to George Soros-- to Fox News host Laura Ingraham and her advertising revenue. He chalks this approach up to his age, which is both encouraging (today's teens know how to harness and handle the internet better than any of us) and depressing (this is likely the only version of the internet they've experienced.)

"[We're] the generation of 9/11, the recession, cyberbullying, and school shootings," he said. "We've had to live around that and through that our entire lives. We've had to learn to deal with these sick fuckers that are saying this stuff, that are out there, claiming that we're not real people, claiming that we're actors--and we know not to let this stuff online affect us."

(The attitude may also come from his mother, who at one point said, in reference to online threats made against her family, "You fucked with the wrong mama bear.")

Admit Everyone

We should always be clear on what the goal is: a world in which we don't all have to fight each other all the time, where we can work together in solidarity rather than having to wage war against our friends for the privilege of having a good job. There is no reason why everyone shouldn't have equal access to the highest-quality education, and in a properly organized society it would be perfectly simple to provide it. We don't need "best" and "worst" universities, ranked from top to bottom, we just need "universities," places where people go to explore human knowledge and acquire the skills that enable them to do things that need doing. Progressive education means an end to the illusion of meritocratic competition, an end to the SAT, and the realization of a vision of equal education for all.

I love this stupid meme, especially the way people are making legitimately intellectual arguments with it. (Credit: Artist unknown) pic.twitter.com/XU5G9sooXq
