This is a wild accusation. There are no quotas for Jews and haven’t been for a long time. If there were any shred of evidence of this, law suits would have filed immediately. As another poster stated, the decline in the Jewish population is just a corollary to the decline in the white population. Some of that was due to affirmative action — WHICH IS NOW OVER — but a lot also is just because in recent decades US demographics esp for young people include more non-white people generally. |
I consider myself pro Israel and am all about free speech, including critique of Israel and outright antisemitism. Racist and antisemitic, bigoted speech is protected. But when you start threatening people, calling for their deaths, and celebrating their their killers as heroes, when you start following Jewish students (in this case) around campus and blocking their way to class (in the case of Harvard), that crossed a line in to threats and bullying. And that has no place on a college campus - or anywhere. That these presidents couldn’t say something definitive on this front is shameful. And yes, anyone calling for the death of students, faculty, etc should be expelled / fired immediately. |
Was it all a ploy for Stefanik to solidify her choice as a Trump VP?
Raskin on Stefanik today https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp-video/mmvo199877701804 |
Ploy is a weird word for that. So what if she wanted to raise her profile? The right’s disdain for the Ivy League is well-known and in this instance it’s hard to think Stefanik’s beef wasn’t sincere. |
Really? Because a lot of us are wondering where her concern for the Jews was when she was giving support to the Great Replacement theory. If you mean she was really looking for ways to make the Ivy League look bad and herself look good then I guess she was “sincere”. |
It’s mostly about equal application of free speech rules on campus, not anti-semitism per se. |
Was Magill president when the Penn female swimmers complained about sexual harassment from Lia Thomas and reportedly were threatened with having their scholarships revoked in response?
I’m genuinely asking; I don’t know which Penn president oversaw that incident. |
The Ivy League made themselves look bad. |
Hypocrite Stefanik went to Harvard. You need to turn off Fox News. |
What’s your point? She knows first-hand that the school lets progressive students walk all over it. |
