Excellent response by the law firm. That student is a hardcore antisemite, and does not deserve to be a lawyer. She should be blacklisted.

(I just can't help but imagine that if this were a right-wing student making a bigoted statement, we'd see the usual suspects condemning this as "cancel culture".)

Wow my post about liberalism being a mental disease got deleted and the nonsense in the Gaza thread survives. Liberalism in a nutshell.

None of these people are liberals. They hate liberalism just as much as you do!

They are clearly liberals

Lmao they are not liberals, they are leftists.

If you called any of these people liberals, they'd have a stroke.

I don't care what these idiots would suffer from. It's clear they are liberals.

They are not liberals, they are leftists. The terms are not synonymous. Get that through your head.

Cancel culture is real and good, whether it punishes conservative bigots or leftist bigots.

Lots of projection in this thread. Some in Academia sympathize with the Palestinians because it's clear they got screwed over by the post WWII alliance and that Israel is an apartheid state that is slowly but surely grabbing more land and displacing more Palestinians. It's not really more complicated than that.

Yeah I’m sure the people at screaming outside Kosher delis and Jewish fraternities in New York are deeply concerned about Palestinians.

There need to be reforms in academia, but right-wing authoritarians like OSR should absolutely not be the people leading those reforms. His vision for academia is even worse than the status quo.

This student has been arrested for stealing an Israeli flag from a campus house.

less than a month before she celebrated murdering babies, she was writing articles about Why Penn should protect its students from colonial backlash, Palestinian and Arab students deserve to feel more safe on campus.  Does she want students to feel safe? nah, she just wants students that look and think like her to feel safe on campus.

Right now, the young left's biggest problem is that their brains short-circuit when there are instances of "minority on minority" bigotry. They're fundamentally unequipped to handle it, and usually respond by either arbitrarily designating one group sufficiently white-adjacent enough that they can rationalize it as "punching up", or by ignoring it altogether.
