Rutgers University Prof Blames Trump Supporters for Coronavirus Deaths
“F**k each and every Trump supporter. You all absolutely did this. You are to blame.”
A Rutgers University professor named Brittney Cooper has come under fire for blaming Trump supporters for Coronavirus deaths. She has not folded under criticism either, citing the fact that she is tenured.
Rebecca Everett reports at NJ.com:
Rutgers prof stands by her tweets saying ‘f— Trump supporters’ blaming them for coronavirus deaths
A Rutgers University professor said she is facing harassment but stands by her tweets saying “f— Trump supporters” and blaming them for the coronavirus deaths that disproportionately affect Black communities.
“So I said what I meant. And I curse cuz I’m grown,” Dr. Brittney Cooper, associate professor in the Department of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies, tweeted Thursday after the Washington Examiner published a story on her earlier tweets. “I disdain every person who thought and thinks he’s a good leader, because that thinking has had material consequences for far too many of us.”
Cooper declined an interview request Thursday morning. The university said in a brief statement that “Dr. Cooper’s Twitter statements are her own personal statements and not those of the University.”
I decided to screen cap these tweets on the off-chance they get deleted:
In a separate thread, she doubled down and explained that because she has tenure she will not be fired for this.
Dom Calicchio of FOX News has more on Cooper’s background:
Cooper has a history of criticizing President Trump. Last October she asserted the president’s policies were partly to blame for weight problems among African-American women. Last August, she claimed Trump was willing to “get us into war” to keep the economy strong to bolster his 2020 reelection hopes.
She is the author of “Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower,” which The Guardian ranked among its “Top 10 Books About Angry Women,” according to Amazon.

She is anything but eloquent.
She is ignorant and nasty and inarticulate. Her rants are idiotic and poorly-reasoned. Rutgers should be ashamed to have such a sleazy character on its faculty.
She is truly “un-educated.”
This will help everyone understand how completely corrupt higher education is today.
Every Amwrican should see this.

I won’t spend 87 minutes hearing from the guy who claims to have invented email. He’s often a political candidate in Massachusetts who happens to run with a “R” next to his name.
Thanks.
Links please.
Links? Just search for his name, and you’ll see what a nut he is. He claims to have invented email in 1977; that alone should discredit anything else he says.
That’s what happens when you let bean counters make hiring decisions.
Bean counters aren’t to blame for this hiring fiasco, a failed Affirmative Action program gets the nod for this utter failure.
Considering the course material she teaches,her venom is not unexpected.
From reading her commentary, I almost think you should have spelled it “coarse.”
Yes, but she’s fat, black, pompous, entitled, a cultural appropriator, self-righteous, flaming liberal, supercilious and anti-American, joining a distinguished club whose members include, inter alia, Michelle Obama, Donna Brazil, DeRionne pollard, Jehmu Green, Whoopi Goldberg, corrine Brown, kNaima Lowe, and Joy Reid.
Geez, how could you have neglected to leave Stacey Abrams off of that list? 😉
Thanks for the reminder. She is on it now.
You forgot to mention she is obviously a racist against white people (men in particular). As for her comment about whites looking to see the winnowing of black people, that may be true, but it is the folks she votes for (Democrats) who have killed millions of her peoples babies over the past 50 years.
Probably snorts like a pig at the trough when eating too. Look at that woman, she could be a first round pick for the offensive line on any pro football team.
Or, just a first round pick to be offensive!
I bet her bosses at Rutgers are thrilled with her. They’ll be scrambling for students soon and parents see this and will be afraid their child would be in her class.
Do this Brainiac has a doctorate in what? Applied Racism?
Being Oppressed.
Probably as much as AOC has degrees in Econ and International Relations.
Over eating.
She has her own wiki page which states this, “After graduating from Howard University, Cooper attended Emory University, where she received her Master of Arts from the Graduate Institute of Liberal Arts in December 2007.[3] She received her Ph.D. in American Studies, in addition to a Women’s Studies Certificate, from Emory’s Graduate Institute of Liberal Arts in May 2009.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brittney_Cooper
She is AA writ large. And larger too.
OOH…..a certificate.I’m impressed by her excellent credentials.
Nowadays those are called toilet paper……..
Before affirmative action she would never be within a country mile of any job requiring brains.
associate professor in the Department of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies
It appears she actually is well over a country mile away from “…any job requiring brains.” Her statements confirm it.
Rutgers does not suffer from high standards when hiring professors.
Those who can’t do, teach.
Those who can’t teach, teach gym.
Those who can’t teach gym, teach women’s/gender studies.
Those who can’t teach, teach teachers.
Before affirmative action she would never be within a country mile of any job requiring brains.
She’s not only wrong-headed; she’s at obvious risk for serious trouble if she gets the virus, because of obesity. She’s not obese because of “patriarchy” or “white oppression.” Unless she has some very unusual medical condition, she is obese because of what she eats — that is, not necessarily how much she eats, but how many grams of sugars and other carbohydrates she consumes.
she needs to go on a hunger strike until election day
It would be a good start.
Id guess, in that case, on election day she would still be fat and stupid.
It’s probably Trump’s fault that she ate too many pancakes.
She is clearly someone that I wouldn’t want to Fork with because she probably has a higher degree in Forking. And Spooning is right out too, for other reasons.
Associate professor in the Department of Women’s Gender and Sexuality Studies . Nuff said.?
Wait! There really is such a department? Honest?
She gets paid tax money to spout that drivel. I’m sure that her “academic” work is even worse.
“Dr. Brittney Cooper, associate professor in the Department of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies …”
I’d take this more seriously if it came from someone hailing from a bona fide academic field.
Would someone please inform this Affirmative Action Mensa that it is conservatives who are fighting against Planned Parenthood, which disproportionately kills Black babies — which has been its mission since Margaret Sanger and her “Negro Project.”
Meanwhile, it is her Democrat and Progressive “allies” that can’t throw enough money at Planned Parenthood, even as they keep expanding the window of legal abortion (i.e., right up until birth, and after birth if they could).
“Last October she asserted the president’s policies were partly to blame for weight problems among African-American women.”
I bet a dollar she weighed within 10% of today’s weight in 2016….
Stacey the Tank Abrams has a clone?
Put michelle obama, shield jackson lee and her together and you have a tank battalion.
Or, the vacation replacement cast for The View.
She is proof positive that Blacks are racists as much as any other ethnic group.
Maybe we white Trump supporters can file a class action suit against her for racist condemnation of every one of us.
Is she a twin sister to Stacy Abrams?
On what grounds? It’s a free country and racist speech is thankfully legal.
A mother entitled, Black, unhappy, fat , and angry woman
Yawn…
Have another chocolate bar and STFU
I blame it on racist blacks.
white supremacists and Black folks in the same sentence
It happened in South Africa, with purported color supremacists and Black folks, before the Progressive lynch mobs purged dissenting Blacks and threatened other native people. From separation to cancellation… progress.
I’d hate to be her husband, if she could find a guy willing to put up with that attitude he’s got to have some serious issues as well.
I wonder what she eats in the course of a day. Probably diabetic. Definitely ugly, from the inside out.
Who hires pigs to teach?
Boss Hog.
Well if you are built like Professor “Brittney” you are obese, and may well be diabetic and asthmatic as well and as such you have a lot to fear from the Kung Flu.
But Brittney correctly says that the Wuhan Virus is racist in that it hits a lot of black–proportionately more than their share of the population. But then black males may have a larger percentage of obesity, diabetes and asthma than the general population
But it’s also sexist-proportionately more males than females die from it.
And its ageist–it hits people over 80 way out of proportion to their distribution in the population.
Brittney is one of the professional grievance mongers, and here she’s got only one out of three of the “isms’. 33% correct is a failing grade in most classes—but I’m certain Brittney gives out a lot of A’–but not much actual knowledge.
“All Black Lives Matter”…except for those unborn….
When I went to school there were no heavy weight “teachers”. Sad that kids pay to be taught from ignorant slobs.
What an evil slob.
If we don’t take back our schools, we’re doomed.
Just bulldoze them under.
It is only with toxic waste.
Way
Great Maker. I thought for a moment that picture of the fat cow at the top of this article was our good friend, Stacey Abrams. It took me a moment to realize it was another stupid, fat cow blaming everyone else for all the problems within the black community. Well honey, it’s not whitey’s fault that you’re fat. Or have diabetes. Or asthma. Or any of the numerous other health conditions blacks generally suffer from. It’s your own fucking fault. And to blame whitey is just disgusting. So just stop it right now. Stop. No more of this race baiting nonsense. Just stop.
/rant
Why should we care what a stupid, ignorant racist says? So why report it? Does any intelligent person still have any respect for the faculty of NE leftist indoctrination centers?
Make that ALL educational institutions…
Wanna laugh? This is MIT’s syllabus for it’s ‘women’s studies’ program! —
Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for this course.
Course Description
“We take our stand on the solidarity of humanity, the oneness of life, and the unnaturalness and injustice of all special favoritisms, whether of sex, race, country or condition.” – Anna Julia Cooper
“Gender equality is more than a goal in itself. It is a precondition for meeting the challenge of reducing poverty, promoting sustainable development and building good governance.” – Kofi Annan
This course offers an introduction to Women’s and Gender Studies, an interdisciplinary academic field that explores critical questions about the meaning of gender in society. The primary goal of this course is to familiarize students with key issues, questions and debates in Women’s and Gender Studies scholarship, both historical and contemporary. Gender scholarship critically analyzes themes of gendered performance and power in a range of social spheres, such as law, culture, education, work, medicine, social policy and the family.
Throughout the semester, we will “question gender” in multiple ways:
Why has gender been a primary organizing principle of society?
How do “gendered scripts” for dress, appearance and behavior emerge among different social groups and in different societies and historical periods?
How do we explain the sexual division of labor and the unequal social status of women and girls and those activities and roles deemed “feminine” in society?
In what ways does gender intersect with race, ethnicity and sexuality?
How do gendered structures of power and authority operate?
What factors contribute to the formation and success of movements for and against gender equality and fluidity?
Can we imagine a future in which we largely ignore gender or envision gender and sexuality in more expansive, fluid or egalitarian ways?
This term you will become acquainted with many of the critical questions and concepts feminist scholars have developed as tools for thinking about gendered experience. In addition, we will explore the complex ways in which gender intersects with class, race, ethnicity, sexuality and age within various spheres and institutions of society. Required readings include classic and contemporary women’s and gender studies texts, representing scholarship from a variety of disciplines, as well as political documents and personal narratives of gendered lives. Course topics include: the first and second waves of American women’s / gender rights activism, and gender issues in relation to the law, socialization, education, work, health and reproduction, sexuality, families, and globalization. Through successfully completing this course, students will be better prepared to participate in and contribute effectively to the larger public conversation about the role of gender in society; to apply the critical tools of women’s and gender studies in their academic, personal and occupational lives; and to take more advanced classes in this field.
Course Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, students should be able to:
Understand and engage with central debates in the field of Women’s and Gender Studies.
Define and apply basic terms and concepts central to this field.
Apply a variety of methods of analyzing gender in society, drawing upon both primary and secondary sources.
Apply concepts and theories of Women’s and Gender Studies to life experiences and historical events and processes.
Communicate effectively about gender issues in both writing and speech, drawing upon Women’s and Gender Studies scholarship and addressing a public audience.

Please tell us that you made this up.
OMG, no!
That’s why I put the citation in.
Blobs like this moron from Rutgers are only able to survive any semblance of a college education by taking moronic courses that have no right or wrong answers on tests.
Thanks for looking that up.
Think we could find Lizzie Warren’s single class syllabu?
Nobody could make that up.
“Upon successful completion of this course, students should be able to:”
Babble incessantly about white male privilege, blame everyone else for your overweight status including the induced medical problems, and see a racist (white) in every corner. And use meaningless big words while railing about the bad orange man.
Absolutely frightening!
Thus is revealed the true source of Global Warming; an uninformed blowhard. i will, of course, forego the fat jokes, as I am sensitive.
You mean it’s not cow farts?
I suppose I’m a bit surprised that she could stop chewing long enough to say any words at all.
Clearly anyone that’s not Black and Far Left would be discriminated against. Factor in the disgusting language – usually a sign of poor education andor low IQ, and how’s she a professor let alone a tenured one?
Someone should let Rutgers and the professor know that racism, which she proudly displayed in those tweets, are not protected by tenure and she could be fired.
She should be fired. Of course I don’t expect Rutgers to actually lift a finger against her.
Um, yes, it is protected, and she can’t be fired for it. Especially by a public university, where — in addition to tenure — the first amendment applies.
Is she a professor of Gastronomy?
I suppose it’s utterly unsurprising that the vile Dhimmi-crats and their embittered, jackboot supporters, have now stooped to turning the coronavirus situation into an allegedly “racial” situation. These twits are so incredibly predictable.
Moron.
I’d like to have been a fly on the wall at that tenure meeting. And then….know what the participants were really thinking.
Did they then, or do they now, think they have a marketing problem? Do parents want to spend a bazillion dollars to send their kids to a school that tenures THAT?
How many others does she represent?
The guy who pumps our septic tank makes $80k a year, drives car towing on the weekends, and didn’t have to front a quarter mill to get started.
Talking about backing trailers–I don’t do it well–and what you have to anticipate and so forth. He said he has a thirty-five foot travel trailer. Those aren’t cheap.
Some years ago, while the HVAC guy was making up a box elder bug cage–those suckers will mess with your A/c–he remarked that he and his daughter ride both dressage and western. Different horses. different tack. Different outfits. Boarding. Training. Travel.
Bet those guys wish they’d gone to college.
And in both cases, people are happy when they show up….. Just sayin/
She is the author of “Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower,” Who knew stupid was a superpower?
This is a perfect example of why tenure should be ditched.
Actually, it’s a perfect example of why “victimization studies” should be ditched.
Without tenure do you think Prof J would have dared start this blog?
black, foul-mouthed, ignorant, entitled–the textbook definition of ” hoodrat ”
imagine being on the faculty of rutgers and having her as a
” colleague “?–lord–a living testimony to the abject failure/tyranny of affirmative action
think of the former students/donors/supporters of this school hearing/seeing her or the parents considering the no doubt significant tuition investment–no, thanks
I’d love to see this bovine ignoramus in a foot race to a buffet vs. Stacey Abrams.
Life in the fat lane…
This is typical academic TDS that is raging since Trump got elected. A professor acquaintance/friend I have on Facebook accuses Trump of killing people on a weekly basis. Or that we want people to die if we go back to work. There is no reasoning with people like this.
Cannot tenure be revoked for bringing disgrace upon the university? This is certainly disgraceful action.
Not by the standard of what is usually protected by tenure. In addition, this is a state university so the first amendment applies. Remember Leonard Jeffries?
“Necropolitical calculation” is a new one on me. I’m gonna use that.
I would like to hear what that could have been done (within physics, political reality, n available information at the time) should have been done.
I’m mostly coming down with responsiveness, information, and orchestration within existing bureaucracies. If it’s big enough for a travel ban, let alone a lockdown or more, it’s big enough to jump every damn possible factoid n mitigation in front of all the routine stuff.
be prepared for even more of this garbage, still wondering how the democratic governors at put their states on major lock down are going to blame it on Pres Trump
This “lady” appears to be a fast track, affirmative action, bimbo, who could be a poster person for the devolution of our educational system.
This “lady” appears to be a fast track, affirmative action, bimbo, who could be a poster person for the devolution of our educational system. Her resume skipped the fact that she has done extensive lab work in “obesity studies”.
Clearly she’s responsible for all the starvation over in Africa. The millions of dead black children that would have had food if it were not for this woman. The shame. The crimes against humanity. The, oh, look… Twinkies!
