That’s because many accusations of antisemitism are premised on the racist notion that Palestinians (and Arabs and Muslims) can’t help themselves from killing Jews if given the opportunity. It’s how Israel justifies occupying Palestine. We can’t be free because we’re savages.

If news outlets make mentions of accusations of antisemitism at pro-Palestinian events, they should be specific about what those accusations are actually based on. And reporters and editors should honestly ask themselves: Is it anti-Jewish or anti-Israel/Zionist?

One of the most disturbing aspects of Israel's war on Gaza is that there's no documentation of the people who are kidnapped into Israeli prison camps. So families wait for weeks & months hoping their loved ones are captive but alive, but many end up found dumped in mass graves.

When talking about which students are being targeted, harassed, and put in danger at Columbia and elsewhere, you can't brush over the fact that the power of the state is solely being weaponized against just one specific group.

.Toronto Public Library has apparently removed Refaat's poem under pressure from zionists. Refaat was a poet who wrote about his own death - before the IDF murdered him. He'd want this poem to be shared to keep his hopes, and his spirit alive. Please share.

The “words aren’t violence” crowd is somehow also saying that protest chants are actively harming people and making them physically unsafe.

Why is Columbia busying itself with suspending its students when it has professors like this—an actual problem the school should be dealing with?

can’t stop thinking about charlottesville and how white nationalists just waltzed through UVA’s campus with tiki torches shouting the most terrifying shit, *after* one of them slammed a car into a crowd and killed someone, and yet there is not one uniformed officer in this photo

What is the point of the university if not to challenge young people, to give them the the freedom to imagine a better world, the words to demand it, and the tools to build it? What is the desired outcome of visiting state violence upon these protesters? It will backfire.
