"It would appear that my colleague philosophy senior Matt Bruenig does, however his many anti-government articles that can be found online at OUDaily.com, it is obvious this may not be the case."

This sentence needs another try.

"Not only will he be ineligible to vote in the next election if the runoff is invalidated, but he has no tangible connection to CAC."

Why are these two ideas in the same sentence?

"I’m not saying volunteer or go to their events, but at least be informed."

Isn't that why the Daily exists? To inform students about studenty stuff? ...

Keep up the good work?

This is news? Couldn't you have just made this article the OUR VIEW, inserted the sentence: "BE SPONTANEOUS, TOO, SOMETIMES WHEN IT'S NOT VALENTINE'S, YOU GUYS".

Two articles saying Valentine's is commercialized seems like two too many.

I'll avoid the lecture on your unnecessarily violent dialectic imagery (Sexist. Male Patriarchy [sic]. Objectification. Arrrrgh, I know, I know, because they come up when people disagree with you, they're probably inherently meaningless concepts revered only by whiny, angry, attention-seeking women), but in conversations about sexual violence, it might be helpful not to invoke the image of "stomping" the person you're talking to?

No one is in it for glory. This week the Women's Outreach Center is participating in the Red Flag Campaign, raising awareness about dating violence. College campuses can be decidedly unsafe places for women. Since when is it bad to call attention to sexual violence?

Oh, and the argument never "comes back to that singular axiom: male patriarchy". That's embarrassingly redundant. You clearly never actually listen.

I hate this article so much. I don't understand the utility of student journalism if it can't even blandly report on student activism.

Who are the rando "sources" on slut shaming? It seems like Goodell just turned to her roommates and asked "You hate abortions, right? Quick give me some quotes on 'baby-killing bad' before deadline".

Myrick and Magnus have virtually no relevance to reproductive rights week. If they do have something to do with either the passage of HB 1595 or a possible student response to RRW, that should have been articulated. Instead we are presented with an overwhelming bias of the Daily that feels it necessary to remind students at OU that if there is any feminist presence, "real" Oklahomans think abortion evil. Apropos?

What is most enlightening, and which obviously escaped Goodell, is that rank and file women-haters don't see HB 1595 as a means to an end of ultimately getting enough information so that more sensitive steps can be taken to address the terrifying situation women find themselves in when they are pregnant with an unwanted child. Myrick and Magnus see the bill itself as a way to reduce abortions. They acknowledge and celebrate the fact that the bill violates the right to privacy.
