Clemson University Just Banned Harambe Memes Because They Promote ‘? Culture’

Clemson University is apparently under the impression that depictions of Harambe can provoke violence.
The public institution in South Carolina has the same attitude as the University of Massachusetts-Amherst toward the dead gorilla from the Cincinnati Zoo: It reserves the right to punish students who use Harambe’s name or likeness in jokes or memes.
Campus Reform reports that Brooks Artis, Clemson’s graduate community director, told resident advisers last week to warn freshmen to get rid of “any reference to Harambe (or any other spelling)” on any part of their rooms or hallways that’s visible to passers-by.
So the Swahili word “Harambee,” which means “all pull together,” is also prohibited?
The new rule was provoked by someone reporting a meme that was “offensive and bias [sic] in nature,” Artis said cryptically.
An RA told floor residents to enjoy their publicly visible Harambe references until Sept. 30, and after that keep the dead gorilla’s memory alive only within the confines of their rooms. Amusingly, the RA copied Artis’s typo (“offensive and bias”) in justifying the ‘Be ban.
Why is Harambe so offensive? Because he perpetuates “? culture” and “racism” in the perception of some people (?), and it’s Artis’s job to “ensure that everyone is feeling as safe and valued within their community,” she told another confused student.

The only two things that promote "? culture," are these CAC judges who give Brock Turner'em county time and probation for takin' that ass and the scandalous ? who lie about it.

I guess the ? out for harambe part. Which is a ? reach

I guess the racial undertones of Harambe, are a coded euphemism for sexually aggressive black men.
This politically correct nonsense has the "reach" of Dikembe Mutombo.
Their so "Kardashian-like" in their efforts to distract from REAL issues. -
I said it in another thread in-depth. ? will be a misdemeanor in a few years. ? is like a catch phrase nowadays and women R doing it 2 themselves. It's like crying wolf. You hear and heard what judges and currently sitting politicians have said about it. Watch for it.

@700 ..These upper echelon men in power ? hate women man. From Brock's attorney and his pops saying it was just 20 minutes of action, to the lawyer who recently said in court " couldn't u just keep ya legs closed into a case a few years ago " well if she gets wet it ain't ? .". Remember, these R the whites who " CREATE" laws on the books. With all the acquittals, lies, DNA not matching wasting taxpayers $ and court time man they could care less. Countless ? case accusations and she gets off Scott free? Either the women R gonna start getting locked or that ? will be classified as something along the lines of " sexual agitation" or something. Don't underestimate men in positions of power who already hate women. They're gonna accuse the wrong politicians son one day and that ? will change overnight. You see what happens with Brock and the judge being buddies right? Son got a slap on the wrist and a speaking tour. Amplify that to a Senators son or some ? being accused and it possibly Ruining his life.
