A Drexel University professor, whose tweet that he wanted "white genocide" for Christmas sparked a firestorm of criticism from the school and social media, said on Tuesday that administrators supported his right to take part in political debate.

George Ciccariello-Maher, a white associate professor of history and politics at the Philadelphia university, has said his Christmas Eve posting of "All I Want for Christmas is White Genocide" on Twitter was aimed at poking fun at white supremacists.

He is an expert on Latin American social movements with about 10,000 Twitter followers.

But his attempt at satire triggered a backlash from conservative websites, with some online comments calling for him to be fired or commit suicide. Drexel on Sunday called his tweet "utterly reprehensible" and said it would meet with him to discuss it....

He probably does.

Why would anyone — of any color — want to go to Drexel?

Try to imagine someone “joking” about any other type of genocide.

“Because its a good engineering and med school.”

Not if the likes of that asshat is a professor. No way.

An “expert on Latin America social movements”? I don’t think he’s even mastered the bowel movement yet. Seems that the sh## is flowing freely out the wrong opening.

Good to know the university supports him.

Makes the higher education selection decision easier for parents.

If these people are so convinced that quotes should die they should kill themselves. Remember: lengthwise, not side to side.

Exactly how does wanting white genocide qualify as “political debate?”

Yes it is and yes he does. I know plenty of alumni, worked with many of them right across the street from there. They cannot be happy. Dry up those alumni contributions..

Code, point out ONE school to me that DOESN’T have at least one asshat professor...

They’re like cockroaches, buddy... they’re everywhere, and when you shine the light on them, they scurry.

He's lying, Drexel already came out saying that it did NOT support what he said.

And he is backtracking as fast as he can; that was NO piece of "satire" and the rest of the world knows it. He's a POS and should off himself, because he is white.

“Code, point out ONE school to me that DOESN’T have at least one asshat professor...”

Thanks for making my continued point that we need to dismantle the entire university system and start over.

I am dead serious.

If they (alumni) would do that, then that would help.

The real question is - where do idiots like this guy come from? Who was HIS “teacher” that cranked him out?

Notice they don’t mention he’s a commie who wrote books lauding the Venezuela system.

My son was offered a scholarship to Drexel for engineering 13 years ago, and he chose Rose-Hulman in IN instead. Never had to suffer through one progressive nutcase prof in four years.

“...I am dead serious....”

Didn’t doubt you for a second, brother.

But I know many Drexel grads, and they are NOTHING like this jerkweed.
