It's only a matter of time before he runs for office as Trunp 2.0.


This is my take as well. He reminds me of Elon Musk and other billionaires with large social media followings whose egos are proportional to their vast wealth and who like to throw their weight around and wade into social and political issues. One wonders what their endgame is. More money and power or the White House as you suggested?


So - people like Susan Sarandon, and countless other liberal actors? Oh.


Sarandon is not a billionaire and has little if any influence. Heck, most people under 60 probably haven’t heard of her. I was speaking about the elite class of mega-wealthy who throw their money and weight around, regardless of political beliefs.


So then, George Soros. Michael Bloomberg. Mark Zuckerberg. Got it.

He is white, male, and rich, what does his religion have to do with his obnoxious stance?


My point obviously is that he uses his status in a minority religion as a convenient cudgel and to justify his behavior.


Would you say the same about a wealthy black donor who decided to speak up and refuse to continue donating upon the discovery that the university had no problem with protesters screaming ugly things about black people and allowing black people to be harassed? We'll wait while you twist yourself into a pretzel, trying to answer.

Um, white American jews aren’t minorities and have never faced hardships remotely close to the history of American blacks.

I was wondering how long it would take for Soros’ name to pop up.

I've already seen some people claim this is a nothing burger - but Ackman himself went out of his way to forgive her on Twitter...

“Part of what makes her human is that she makes mistakes, owns them, and apologizes when appropriate”



Whether or not this is true, she is not the president of an academic institution who cited that condemning threats to a group of people at an organization that she was responsible for depended on the context.

No comparison. Again, what-about-ism is astonishing. That’s all you folks can do. Schoolyard chants and ridiculous “I know you are but what am I” retorts. Rah rah team

Ok so at the very least, Ackman et al. are lying cheating hypocrites and at most Dori or Noro or whatever her name is, needs to have her PhD revoked yesterday. She is a fraud.


Nothing about Ackman was a lie, a cheat, or hypocritical. You’d make a terrible attorney.

He is now married to his home wrecker who directly plagiarized Wikipedia. I can’t think of more irony or hypocrisy.


DP. Why do you keep referring to his wife as a "homewrecker"? All of your posts are unhinged, but that one isn't even close to being true. He and his first wife divorced in 2016 and he and his present wife married in 2019. Maybe you should seek therapy for your irrational anger.

I’m not angry, I believe the new upgraded wife was just waiting in the wings. He leveled up, traded in his old worn out starter wife. It’s blatantly obvious, happens all the time.


You have serious issues, not the least among them your misandry.

Well, when you make a statement like the bolded, of course it's going to pop up.

OMG. No words.

Are they really minorities in the sense that a black person is though? You’d never guess who’s jewish if they didn’t announce it. Can you identify a catholic? a buddhist? I can’t.

First of all, you do know the pro-Palestinian protests were/are taking aim at Israeli Jews - right?? And that plenty of American Jews - many of whom are related to the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust - have been threatened by pro-Palestinian activists as a result, right??

JFC, I can't even believe this has to be explained, yet again.

In the United States, not ancient history, current United States? Jewish American people are facing major hardships similar to American blacks? Or Asians? Or Hispanics? It’s all the same?

It’s all the same when you don’t see color.

But we all see color, as you know, unless we’re blind of course. Then our remaining senses overcompensate.

Oh, I get it. You've been living under a rock for the past months and have no idea that Jewish Americans have been threatened and harassed on college campuses (and elsewhere) by idiot pro-Palestinian activists. That explains so much.

How are they lecturing you? Do you work or study in an academic institution? If not, I can't imagine what academics say or do has much impact on your personal life.

And why the word "elites" to describe academics. Do you disapprove of their level of education or is it a social class thing? I know lots of academics that came from modest backgrounds and worked very hard for a long time to get where they are because they love the work.


Sadly, I do have to deal w academics and “think tank” types who hold themselves in very high regard, shall I say elite status. Many have never actually produced outside of these protected/tenured/fellow bubbles, which is not lost on me. But boy do they think they are always right. So yes….first person account.


PP, there are 4000 colleges and universities in this country the vast majority of which are not elite. Your anecdotes about DC think tankers with PhDs is not representative of most college professors.

We’re in the US though. Lucky us we don’t have to live over in that mess of affairs. We live our cushy little lives over here in the good US of A and pretend to understand and empathize with madness.
