Nysmith allegedly allowed antisemetic bullying and expelled the kids who's parents complained

[Anonymous]

It will never cease to amaze me that Gaza is literally starving to death right now - food is so scarce and baby formula is pretty much all gone… and here some people are debating some wishy washy claims that can’t be proven or verified bc some privileged people have found ways to continue to center themselves during a genocide. And we wonder why the world is irredeemable and the future is bleak for all our kids. Well done.

I can't imagine a school that has been around as long as Nysmith that would not be measured in its response when claims of anti-Semitism are made, especially in this political environment. Expelling the students seems like a radical thing to do - there must have been some reason. So - I take this complaint with a grain of salt and look forward to the school's side of the story before prejudging.

Just remember 2 wrongs don’t make a right.

“We won’t teach kids about the Holocaust because of Gaza” is textbook antisemitism, bro. Tell me exactly how not teaching about the Holocaust will save Palestinian lives? What other should we not teach about in order to help Gaza? Only Jewish history?

This is incoherent and gross. Your dog whistles about “privileged people” are easy to hear. If you really want to be taken seriously with “criticizing Israel isn’t antisemitic!!!” then maybe you should quit injecting Palestine into discussions of antisemitism that don’t actually have anything to do with Israel. Otherwise you’re just telling on yourself.

I am not Jewish but I don’t see how those two events together don’t create the perception of an anti-Semitic environment.

Eager to read whatever Nysmith has to say for himself as this develops.

Sorry but this is ridiculous. You want to avoid hanging a Palestinian flag to avoid “emotionally harming” Jews? Utter nonsense.

Then hang the Israeli flag too.

Why haven’t you mentioned the genocide in Sudan? How about the slaughter of Druze in Syria? How about the slaughter of Jews in Israel on October 7th? How about the genocide of Uyghurs? How about the slaughter of over 500,000 people in Syria?
