UC Berkeley BDS Champion: Jewish Students Too Rich And Too White

On Sunday, the University of California Students Association voted on divesting from companies that do business with Israel.

In the time slot dedicated for UCSA representatives’ comments, UC Berkeley graduate rep. Imam Sylvain accused the pro-Israel Jewish student body of being too rich and too white:

This might sound really harsh, but I really want us in the audience to check our privilege because I feel like what I saw this morning really reflects economic inequities. Just the ability to mobilize so many students with T-shirts and banners. I wish there was equal representation, and I wonder how much that reflects across these oceans. Isn’t this what we are really talking about?

Apparently, calling the UC Jewish population spoiled wasn’t enough for Sylvain. She continued, “Also, I just want to reflect on the diversity of voices that we heard today. I feel like one side represented so many identities, so many ideologies, and the other was pretty one-sided, and so I would urge some of the supporters against to reach out to other constituencies and figure out what people are really talking about, and how they really feel.”

Sylvain only said this after admitting that her pro-divestment stance would remain firm regardless of what the students at the hearing had to say. She asserted, “Coming in to this space the decision was kind of already made where my association stood. We voted, passed a straw poll vote, 80% of the UC Berkeley graduate students support this bill.”

Sylvain then had the audacity to conclude with a lecture on anti-Semitism: "This charge, that supporting divestment, or really student activism calling for divestment which is a distinction there, is anti- Semitic or anti-Jewish; you don’t know our personal lives. You don’t know who we love, who we’ve been raised by, so

Jews can look like...anyone. There are Ethiopian Jews...and Indian Jews...& hispanic crypto-Jews who have hidden their ancestry in the SW US for 14 generations...

Not all, but many of the “rich” kids don’t choose - and certainly don’t have to choose - a filthy city all-too- full of islamonazis and commies and just plain ah@les like Bezerkly for their schooling. And while Judaism permits all peoples of all races to convert into the faith, it naturally had as its historical core a federation of tribes from a particular place and time. So that most, albeit not all, Jewish people share a common “racial type,” just like most Japanese or most Italians, for all of their “diversity” still look somewhat similar to each other. So what? As martin Luther King prayed, we hope all people may be judged by the quality of their characters and not the color of their skins. Or has MLK gone out of favor in Berkeley these days? ——Finally, Jews will be amused to learn that the UC Nazis are now attacking the and wish people for suddenly mutating en masse to be “ too white” — after centuries of being put down, and sometimes hunted down, for not being white enough. Strange and cruel are the viccisitudes of human society

It always starts with “the Jews” and moves on to the next level.

I remember being in Venezuela and I was surprised to see synagogues.

I thought South America was pretty much entirely Catholic.

I was wrong.

[boop]

O/T, but I was watching one of those Dodge Brothers commercials, and noticed that they used a Star of David as their symbol in the 20s and 30s.

I thought maybe they were Jewish. They weren't.

I looked it up, and it turns out that NOBODY knows why the Dodge brothers used the symbol.

I guess it never occurred to anyone to ask them.

It's da Joos fault!

Too rich and too white? Isn't this kind of racist against white people? I guess it is ok with a lot of people.

So, when are the UC Berkeley students and professors going to come out for the Nazi “Final Solution” to the Jewish problem? They could convert some of the dorm showers to gas chambers and build crematoriums to incinerate the dead bodies. They could work the healthy Jews to death rebuilding the campus under the Muslim Student's Association guards and Dhimmi liberal student associations and professors as guards. The physics department could figure out a way to use “renewable energy” to power the electrified fences. Other professors could figure out ways to utilize the dead Jews for the improvement of UC Berkeley. Remember students and profs: Arbeit Macht Frei [Work Makes You Free] that stands above the main gate at Auschwitz.

The Staples in my small Indiana town shut down...couldn’t stay open. There are others in the same thongs all due to Hope & Change Socialism and the healthcare that was allowed to go unchecked by the citizens of the US...

The left can only play the “Race Card” and the “Jew/Christian Card” these daze as they continue to see the failure of their leftwing religion.
