the more zoombombings i experience (always targeted at specific dates + topics + people around Indigenous, Jewish, and/or trans healing, solidarity, and organizing) the more infuriated i become with this one professor who insisted on ~“avoiding zoombombings”~ by making the zoom link different weekly + hard to find + verified by email log-in + use of legal names -- when his class was reifying ideas of “primitive” architecture and Western European white supremacy+colonial-imperialism and binary gender+sex

just bro, you’re not remotely a target

#like very very many of us suck at accurate risk/threat assessment yes #but you are literally doing the work of inculcating the very ideology of Romans White Christians Empire Ideal #and perpetuating the misunderstanding that violation and aggression are random #slash are suggesting you're countercultural?? because Artistry??#the extent to which i have wanted to whistleblow professors (but am aware their institutions are Fully Backing Them slash Worse)#huge part of why i vet not just orgs or curricula but specific hosts before accepting multi-part work anymore
