“As the details of the lawsuit came out, many Harvard scholars which had signed the original letter in support of Comaroff began to retract their signatures. As of February 9, 35 of the original 38 professors had retracted their signatures, and released a statement admitting they “were lacking full information about the case” and that they agreed with the sentiments expressed in the counter-letter.”

The legal complaint denounces Comaroff and his wife for issuing a press release, organizing opposition among Harvard faculty (which rapidly and pathetically collapsed) and generally publicizing the case as an attack on academic freedom, which it unquestionably was. This the students’ lawyers characterize as “textbook retaliation”!

The cowardice of academics is astounding and never-ending. The most vicious activists in academe today are its lesbian cabals.
