Judging from how I was called a pro-Putin bot on here when I suggested Ukraine negotiate, I would say no.

Crazy fascism here. It was much the same for vocal critics of the Iraq War. They were ostracized and put out of work.
I hope that we can all tow the line of the thought police. Make sure that every thought is in line with the wealthy white donors of the world.

An alternative take would be to, oh, I don’t know, unequivocally condemn the Hamas atrocities.

There has been a big coordinated push by many influential donors at a number of universities for school administrators to ban any student groups related to Palestinian issues, fire professors who voice opposition to Israel’s Palestinian policies, and expel students who support BDS.

This is all coming to a head right now, the rubber is finally meeting the road. These donors have been threatening to pull their money for a looooong time. See The David Project and other similar groups.

Tbh, I don’t think there is anything Penn could have done short of banning any support for Palestinians on campus, including expelling students and firing professors.

I dont see Jewish student unions and Jewish student mobs shouting down pro Palestine speakers and trying to have professors fired like the wokesters. Seems that all people are asking for is for these universities to issue a statement to condemn violent acts of terror. As a non-Jewish person, I’m tired of woke leftists canceling anyone they don’t like and then crying when their tactics are turned against them.

The site for Penn Law Students for Justice in Palestine has been taken down. I guess they still want that biglaw check after all?

He stated, quite eloquently, how he feels. It's clear he doesn't need a comms person to "save his a$$". He's making a personal decision and doesn't care how it lands. Good for him.

I've been waiting for this for quite a while. I said that the woke leftism would face a huge pushback when things got too outrageous. People are now seeing who we are allowing into the country and how they are influencing our youth. Unfettered immigration was already a huge sore point, even to liberals. Seeing the fruits of years of immigration labor I'm sure was quite startling and served as the needed wake up call.

This. The fact that my university, which has something to say about every other cause, couldn't at first bring itself to call the massacre of 1000 Jews and the brutal rape and abduction of women and children "terrorism" has been really telling for me. Something is deeply, deeply wrong with the value systems developing within the academy.

I don't know what to think of *donors* being the ones to inject a note of sanity. This is a really complicated matter and I don't have good predictions about how that will go.

There is a lot to say about the Palestinian Writers Festival, though. The most obvious thing, of course, was this esteemed guest:

Ukraine negotiate...

"Gimme yer lunch money!"

"Okay"

Ukraine negotiating just means the bully comes back for more lunch money.

Whether or not you are a "pro-Putin bot" that is at least something that many people already learned as a child. At best you've lived a naive, sheltered life.

This has nothing to do with immigration.

Huh?!? Please expand. How is this an immigration issue?

Say it with your chest.

Agree. Jewish groups in this country have a lot of power and influence, especially in finance where they deal with and help their own. I’ve had to sit in a room where Catholics were insulted so it’s naive to assume this is only related to Muslims.

I agree. I’m so disappointed that an institution like Harvard who knows the true history of they bother to understand it can't see past dollar signs. Instead they are gaslighting and trying to blacklist the truth. Every American has the right to free speech whether you agree or disagree.

So because you perceive that a Catholic once felt insulted in a meeting, violent acts of terror should not be condemned? Your words betray your deeply held prejudice.
