I'm Jack Petocz, a 19 y/o activist that's been fighting for marginalized people for years. Yesterday, I was expelled from Vanderbilt University for peacefully protesting the genocide in Palestine. Vanderbilt will let sexual assaulters walk free, but expel passionate organizers.
For months, administration has suppressed student voices fighting for Palestine. This includes hyper-surveillance, discrimination towards our SJP and JVP chapters, and cancelling a student-led referendum to divest Vanderbilt Student Government funds from mass slaughter.
The community note on this post is patently false. I did not touch a community service officer, nor am I anywhere near the individual in the video. I’d implore you to trust a student activist over rich, powerful, white men, but that’s your choice. More information will come.
@Jack_Petocz you know what to do...
@Jack_Petocz @genzforchange Since your parents failed to teach you about consequences someone else had to. It’s time to grow up. Now go put on your big boy shoes and do something productive that doesn’t involve whining and screaming and pretending to be “marginalized.”
