He was not on campus. That's a really poor article with no sourcing...

Their sourcing is to another article from their same network which refers to instagram posts as the source. They just feed into this narrative when it's a handful of people (apparently) from this area that had him speak on zoom.

You could have stopped at "prominent people on X"

I’m not concerned about myself.
Tailgate Guru • 05/03/26 11:52 AM ET
That's how it works

Whatever you say. SMH**

He was there but the University said it was not a sponsored event (link)**

There are many groups that are represented at VT. Not to get into debate,

There are no “sides” to advocating violence **
Tailgate Guru • 05/03/26 07:06 AM ET
EXACTLY!**
HOKIERIT • 05/03/26 08:30 AM ET
That is not what I said. I said there are many groups with different views
JM397 • 05/03/26 07:15 AM ET
He wasn't on campus, and this really had nothing to do with VT...
BB Hokie • 05/02/26 11:55 PM ET
If he wasn't on campus, why doesn't VT come out and announce that...
EDGEMAN • 05/03/26 07:37 AM ET
I agree with you..VT, of all places, should be extra sensitive to ANYTHING>
HOKIERIT • 05/03/26 08:35 AM ET
That’s my impression
Tailgate Guru • 05/02/26 11:59 PM ET
I think you know the answer to that question.**
MP4VT2004 • 05/03/26 04:24 AM ET
I don’t. **

Without getting political, let us just spit out the name. This is from AI
VaTechie • 05/02/26 11:50 PM ET
But did he actually “appear” and, if so, in person?
Tailgate Guru • 05/02/26 11:56 PM ET
Tech issued a statement that the speaker was not an official speaker
WestyHokie • 05/02/26 11:11 PM ET
I saw something similar a day or two ago; needs reissued **
