So we saw the video of what one may assume is a math prof. at Columbia U and who is ethnically Jewish.
If not, here it is again:
So “we are willing to take you to the Math lounge” I think he says. Not sure about the last word. Lounge, Line, Lawn? Anyway the point is, this is being framed as a Jewish guy being forbidden to enter his own campus where he is a Prof. because of what is likely the Islamo-communist alliance that has taken control of much of the campus. The Admin appears to be trying to reach a sort of detente with them, while the Math prof is clearly agitating. Which he should do. This is submission to mob rule on behalf of the admin. Failing to agitate against the changes in liberties on campus is also submission.
It is exactly why the phrase, “The truth lies somewhere in the middle, as it always does” makes my teeth hurt.
Hitler, and for that matter Hamas, wants to kill all the Jews. The Jews don’t want to be killed for being Jewish. So the truth must mean kill around half of them I guess. Which is what the Nazis actually managed to do.
At Columbia, they want no Jews on Campus. And he wants the usual rights all citizens are guaranteed to freely go where he wants on campus. So the truth by that logic is, escort him to the Math area where he works but forbid him from being anywhere else.
To be as clear as optical quartz: This is submission to the enemies of civilization and liberty by increments. And large increments at that. We either have individual rights which the state, (meaning law enforcement in this case) protect, or we do not. And if we do not we need to ask the same questions the revolutionary founding fathers asked.
Do we need to fight for our rights?
As is normally the case, the Babylon Bee gets closer to the reality than any news service does:
This is spreading across campuses North America wide. I am told also even at high schools.

NYU “Liberated Zone” gets raided.
By way of a fascinating contrast, at an Iranian University where disrespecting Israel and the USA is mandatory:
From recent conversations I have had with Persians and news reports smuggled out by TwitterX, I have more faith in the population of Iran to preserve Freedom and reason than much of the Western population. A case can be made that during Obama’s revolutionary administration, the Persians were well on the way to liberating themselves from the IRI (Islamic Republic of Iran) but Obama assisted in the quelling of the massive protests, while fuelling all the rest in the middle East at the same time, called ‘The Arab Spring’ whicht brought Ikwan (The Muslim Brotherhood) to power in many places. Most notably Egypt although it didn’t stick.
If we say 2+2=4 and an enemy who wants to destroy our fundamentals says that 2+2=6, compromising on 5 is not a solution. It is actually doing the enemy’s work for them.
The MEP in the clip below understands this in terms of the arena of free speech in Europe. And he is 100% correct. Which means it won’t be long till we don’t hear from him again for one reason or another. That is, unless we all gird our loins and now.
“Freedom, is the freedom to say that 2+2=4”. George Orwell in 1984

As a semi related item that is hard to resist posting, a pro-Hamas leftist in the US berates and blackmailes Alec Baldwin, demanding he say “free free Palestine” which he will not do, or she will continue to berate him about shooting a woman on a film set. Fascinating that she appears to despise him for his actions but uses that to blackmail him to steal his moral authority, such as it is, for her cause. A pretty decent microcosm for the West at this stage.
Vlad – you and your ilk are completely wacko! Genocide is happening in Occupied Gaza and your idiotic non-sensical double-standard always comes back to pandering to the Israeli murderers and perpetrators.
We would be if it was.
Agree with Joe. Does Vlad not understand that all these protests are being funded by the Sanhedrin? A simple Google search shows Soros is funding these groups. What is Vlad’s explanation for why the IDF sat on their hands for 7-12 hours on October 7? Caught by surprise? /s
LOL! SNL skit from 2015 accurately predicts what Ivy league college is like today. I can’t believe they made this less than 10 years ago. The commies have truly wrecked this place in a remarkably short period of time.
