Not according to his posts on social media, where he talked about "offing" all the Jews.

Does he want to kill his parents, too, then?

Last month, a classmate posted a video to Twitter of Kashuv and others messaging on a Google Doc in 2017. He wrote the n-word several times and said in one message “f the Jews” and “kill the f*n Jews.”

Pull their Federal Funds and tax free status then let them survive on that multi billion dollar endowment for a while.

I’m willing to bet David Hogg’s acceptance would not be rescinded if he had made similar statements in the past.

That is because you have an enormous right-wing bias.

It wasn't just racial slurs or "callous" remarks, it was also comments like "I WILL [EFFING] MAKE A CSOG MAP OF DOUGLAS AND PRACTICE Kill all the [EFFING] JEWS. [EFF] THE JEWS."


There are a lot of Americans who like Israel and hate Jews. It's a very strange thing.


What are you babbling about? You don't need to normalize a teenager who hates Jews.


I'm not normalizing him. I was saying that even if his parents are from Israel, he can be an anti-semite. Sorry if that wasn't clear. (And I don't actually know if his parents are Israeli - that's what PP was saying as evidence that he's not an anti-semite.)


He does say his parents are from Israel - I don't know if he is lying or not

Sure whatever, I'm sure he'll say next that some of his best friends are black.

Again: I am not saying he is not an anti-semite. He is talking about killing Jews. Clearly the words of an anti-semite. I am saying that I have noticed that there are a lot of Americans who like Israel - or purport to like Israel - and also seem to hate Jews. It is disturbing. As a Jew myself, I don't quite know what to make of it or what to do with it.

But yes, he is clearly the kind of person who would hold up his black friend as evidence that he can't possibly be racist.

If similar statements by David Hogg are uncovered, then we can test that theory. But until then, it’s nothing but rank speculation and deflection on your part because you know there’s no other way to defend Kashuv.

Wow. Sounds like just the type of kid any college would be thrilled to have.

This link has the text of the posts. He sounds, at best, unstable, at worst, a racist, anti-semitic sociopath.

Not sure who Ben Shapiro is hanging out with, but every kid I know could meet the standard of not threatening to kill people of another religion on social media.

Some ultra-conservative figures — like Ben Shapiro — have jumped to Kashuv’s defense. Shapiro wrote Monday that Harvard was setting “up an insane, cruel standard no one can possibly meet.” And CJ Pearson, another conservative activist, wrote his “heart hurts” for Kashuv.


I always find it to be fascinating how desperately the militant right wing craves validation from the academy.


it's how they create more footsoldiers. This guy could easily become the next Ben Shapiro now

He should go to Harvard be exposed to Jews and Blacks that are high performing and become a productive member of sobriety

Instead he will be supported by the right wing and his views will just continue to fester


That is a garbage argument. It shouldn’t require showing him people of Harvard-level academic caliber for him to appreciate that minorities should be given the same degree of human dignity that he would give white Christians. By making statements like that, you reveal your own latent bigotry.

Ralph Northam dressed in blackface as an adult and he is still governor.

That tells you everything you need to know about how the rules are applied in our society.


Yep. Disgusting.


Yup. I have nothing to fear from this kid. Harvard and other liberal profs and students. Yep

They were speaking privately and being outrageous, deliberately. He wasn’t being serious. I know, however, there are liberals who hate Jews and use Israel as a blanket of cover for their hatred.

Thoughts and prayers, Mr. Kashuv. Thoughts and prayers.

Cool. And now he knows that actions have consequences, even if you say you're sorry.

He’s already pointed to how he’s been going to synagogue the past few weeks (since a classmate told him they were going to report his comments) as proof that he can’t be anti-Semitic, so yep!

There’s a difference between using four letter words and spewing racism and hate.
