Meanwhile NYU's library is named after Elmer Holmes Bobst, a man who said, “Jews have troubled the world from the very beginning. If our country ever falls apart, blame the Jews."
Somehow overt antisemitism is okay, but calling for universal human rights and justice is a problem. smh absurd

A NYU student used his graduation speech to condemn the genocide in Gaza & call for justice.
NYU is now denying him his diploma, seeking additional punishment, & released a statement that "NYU strongly denounces the student & is deeply sorry that the audience was subjected to these remarks."

No single person did more to end democracy and roll back civil rights in America than this white supremacist right here. Now and forever, that is how he should be remembered—the 21st century white supremacist who returned the United States to Jim Crow America.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.
