One of the most insane video from the US since the war started… Presidents of the University of Pennsylvania @Penn & @Harvard smilingly say that calling for genocide of Jews isn’t necessarily against their code against harassment & bullying on campus

I cannot stomach Elise Stefanik, but I have to say she handled this pretty well.
Harvard and Penn have to be tremendously embarrassed right now.
Harvard revoked admission offers to students who were found to have used racist language about blacks as a sixteen year old sophmore in high school.
There is no doubt how they answer this question if it were asked about commiting genocide against pretty much any other group. In the oppression olympics, jews are now almost white males.
Leave it to you to put an unpalatable spin on this.
Your racialist chickens are coming home to roost. You know very well if students were calling for a genocide of gays, the Presidents answers would have been 100% different.
I think that the answers they gave were disturbing and disgusting. They are eggheads and elitists. I doubt they are anti-semitic. Preserving their conception of what a university is and requires is seen by them as a sacred duty . In the process they are losing their humanity. These two women want to be too fair. Some questions cannot be equivocated.
You have no standing in my mind to talk about racism . You support more racists than I could shake a stick at.
Lol. Have you paid any attention to this century? You know and I know it's who you say things about that matters, not what you say. Don't even try and pretend they'd give the same answer if this were gays, or trans gendered or any other favored group being threatened with genocide.
This is the modern university. Bigots like Ibram Kendi can stand up and claim "whiteness preventes white people from connecting to humanity" and recieve a standing ovation and be treated as a genius. It's racism all the way down, and where you stand on the racial totem pole dictates which races be threatened/demeaned and which races are sancrosanct. Jews are on the outs in the university world, although I wonder if Kendi or his racist acolytes like Coates could get away with saying "Jewishness prevents jews from connecting to humanity." Maybe a month or two more of war and denying their humanity will be acceptable among left wing intellectuals.
Sean Tracy evidently feels this story is all about black people. Says a lot about Sean Tracy.
That you pick and choose what bigotry you find acceptable says alot about you. Tough to be a Kendi apoligst and act outraged over what the Presidents said. You probably need to coordinate your racial outgroups with your fellow travellers.
You have made four comments on this seed. Every one of them talked about blacks.
Your reading skills aren't great.
I seeded the story.
All that blew up in their faces in the span of a few minutes.
Elise Stefanik asked if “calling for the genocide of Jews” is against the codes of conduct of Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Pennsylvania, all three presidents said the answer depended on the context.
“It is a context-dependent decision,” Penn president Liz Magill responded, leading Stefanik to reply, “Calling for the genocide of Jews is dependent on the context? That is not bullying or harassment? This is the easiest question to answer ‘yes,’ Ms. Magill.”
Harvard president Claudine Gay said, “When speech crosses into conduct, we take action.”
MIT president Sally Kornbluth said that such language should only be “investigated as harassment if pervasive and severe.”
A real morale conundrum.
