  1. I wonder if folks at Wheaton College are allowed to support Palestine in the Diana Davis Spencer Discovery Center Dedicated to Free Speech and Innovation?

  2. Ugh, the web of funds going to right-wing orgs that this article describes is stomach churning.

  3. Because those students who signed that pro-Hamas letter are indeed anti-Semites.

  4. I’m gonna come out and say it. I think a great deal of Republicans care more about condemning a monolithic and secular “radical left” through acts of performative politics and sweeping generalizations based on the opinions of a very select few vocal people and/or Twitter users, than they do about antisemitism and this century-old conflict in the middle east with its long history of violence and its many casualties and deaths, innocent or otherwise.

  5. Love it when supporters of Israel & Zionists insist valid criticism of Israel’s violations of basic human rights is antisemitic – but are completely silent about the card-carrying Nazis, white supremacists, and KKK supporters in their ranks.

  6. And? The things those students said were clearly antisemitic. Antisemitism should be called out by everyone..

  7. Seriously?

    So are we mad about the antisemitism? Because the fact remains – you can call out the Israeli government and say something antisemitic.

    They excused the death of INNOCENT people. People who were killed because they were Jewish.

    So what are we mad about?

    Students not thinking things through?

    Or being called out by Republicans?

    Let’s reverse roles, as a Democrat myself – would we applaud or be appalled by a billboard?

    Because this is some bullshit journalism

    EDIT: Man if people are this divided come election time – Trump is for sure gonna win.

  8. Attacking Harvard is stupid because it has produced some of the most evil republicans.

  9. I mean, okay, but also the people signing the letter at issue suck ass.

  10. Is this the same group that hired a truck to drive around the hometown of law students to accuse them of antisemitism?

  11. If it has rightwing ties it is 110% disingenuous and has a high chance of being run by self glorifying evangelicals who are almost certainly the very thing they pretend to be against while simultaneously being against what they claim they for.

    On a related note [Philly D just released a video on that rightwing garbage film “the sound of freedom”](https://youtu.be/ciYcXWjuaFY?si=yvaahqD6-LSQVXwh)

    Surprise, its exactly what we have come to expect from Rightwing media. Mostly false and entirely misleading, heavily saturated with nationalism, the guy its about was nothing close to what he claimed he was, most of the cases featured are totally inaccurate and of course the guys running the operation used it to sexually exploit people saying things like “its to be convincing” and “is there anything you wouldnt do for the sake of an innocent child”.

    Other organizations focused on the same tasks said they either had no knowledge or connection to his or they knew of them and described them as being disorganized and “having no clue what they were doing”.

    If it comes from the rightwing its about as honest and sincere as the Talibans PR team.
