A protest at Emory University has descended into chaos as Georgia police officers fired rubber bullets and tasers at anti-Israel activists.

In this, the latest explosive example of unrest on American college campuses, students and faculty members were arrested as videos showed Atlanta Police Officers and Georgia State Troopers wrestling them on the ground. A demonstrator was also seen being tasered by an officer as he lay in the grass.

Another protest broke out at Northeastern University's Centennial Common as more than 100 pro-Palestine protestors gathered in tents with University and Boston Police standing by.

More chaos.

I still love it all.

Makes the Left look bad (which it is).

Emory has been on the dark side for decades.

I think the Emory protestors need a theme song. Here’s my suggestion:

It is antisemitic and reminder that antisemites are idiots. Horkeimer hated Zionism, when he wrote this. In fact, he would oppose Zionism into the 1950s, changing his position only because the state of Israel existed and was home to so many Jews. Horkheimer’s reponse to Nazis and German Marxist lack of concern for Jews in Nazi Germany was to break from this. But he still wanted to take the religion out of Judaism. Other cultural marxists remained anti-Zionists, but joined his effort to subvert Judaism with critical studies. What is happening today is exactly what they wanted as a group.
Unlike the schmucks making and fapping to memes at “Smash Cultural Marxism, I’ve suffered reading Horkeimer .

Police detain 100 in pro-Palestinian protest camp at Boston’s Northeastern University

Police detained about 100 people as they moved in to clear an encampment of pro-Palestinian protesters in response to the use of anti-Semitic slurs, the school said.

The action was taken after protesters resorting to “virulent anti-Semitic slurs, including ‘Kill the Jews,’ crossed the line,” the school said in a statement on social media platform X.

I wonder how the US MSM would freak out if there was group of people in a counter-protest/encampment, that yelled “Kill the Palestinians!!!” ???

THAT would receive WALL-to-WALL Coverage, no doubt!!
