The Morning Briefing: Columbia University Has Become the Epicenter of Insidious Hate
PJ Media ^ | 25 Apr2024 | Chris Queen

...

One of the biggest stories that has emerged in recent days is the growing protests against Israel — and in favor of Hamas — on elite college campuses. The epicenter of all this hateful demonstration is Columbia University, where students, faculty, and probably professional agitators are camped out expressing their support of terrorism and their hatred of the only bastion of freedom in the Middle East.

The adage about history rhyming often comes to mind, and we're seeing it here. These protests are the descendants of Occupy, Antifa, BLM, CHAZ/CHOP, and Stop Cop City. The violence may not be the same (yet), but the pattern is the same. Radical leftists think that squatting in some sort of annoying version of a campout helps them get their way, and it doesn't help when authorities give in.

Rick wrote about how the leadership at Columbia is surrendering in some ways:

Protests are continuing at Columbia University on Wednesday as school officials are at a loss about what to do. Another tent city has arisen after cops tore down the first one on Monday.

Columbia's President Minouche Shafik made the tactical blunder of agreeing to negotiate with the troublemakers. By doing this, she's already lost. Her surrender is imminent.

Part of the problem is giving these knuckle-draggers attention. A phrase that’s helped me is “Idiots are best ignored”. Has helped me a lot.

It's not just the students (if indeed any of them are students):

These stupid kids that are not Islamic were born yesterday. They were not around during 911 or the holocaust. Those events mean nothing to them. Anti semitism and Islamic terror does not compute in their little minds. Expel them if they disrupt the business of education on campus. If you can’t protest on your job site, you should not be permitted to do so on campus and intimidate students who do not agree. Force them to take it off campus or expel them if they are caught with a protest sign on campus

Has become?

It has been for more than a century. It's been quite the proud center of anti-white and anti-American hatred masquerading as a learning institution.

I’m loving the story of a hacker that got into the Harvard sprinkler system and set it off. 3am this morning and it was VERY cold. 😆

America is in transition, from its current fascist society toward full blown Nazism. It is a natural progression for a dictatorship, which America is now.

While I am opposed to this behaviour I must say I hope Jewish Democrats are enjoying the results of all their votes and support for Democrats.
