I've probably paid less attention than I should have to the matter of Matthew Harris, the apparently schizophrenic former UCLA philosophy lecturer whose threats shut down the school for a day a couple of weeks ago.

u stupid caucasoids n kikes teach ACTUAL NAZIS LIKE HEIDEGGER AND KANT
AND CARNAP (FUCK UCLA)
ALL OF THOSE FUCKING PIECES OF SHIT WHEN THIS NIGGER SAYS HIS OWN PHILOSOPHY
FUCKING GET SHOT THE FUCK UP U CAUCASOID-KIKE FAGGOTS …
Yow.
