Why I no longer have a roommate

The College Fix has a story that reminds me of something I experienced in college. The College Fix story is about a guy who awoke to a voice speaking in his roommate's computer. He recognized the voice as Ben Shapiro. Horrors! His roommate was listening to a Daily Wire Ben Shapiro podcast!
The student then filed a complaint with the administration’s bias reporting system against his roommate for watching the Shapiro video.

“Ben Shapiro is known for his inflammatory speech that criticizes and attacks the African American community,” the student wrote in his report against his roommate. “I thought hate had no place on MSU’s campus yet MSU has roomed me with someone who supports hate speach [sic].”

In response to the complaint, the university tasked an investigator to look into the matter, who was told to work for a “room change if the claimant would like one.”

I had a roommate who was studying to become a preacher. He would kneel beside his bed and loudly pray for me. He would ask God to guide me and forgive me for my various sins.
