SPRINGTIME FOR HITLER AT MIT

The headline comes from a David Burge (“Iowahawk”) Tweet about this letter from Jewish students about events on campus at MIT yesterday:

To all students at MIT,

Today, Jewish and Israeli MIT students were physically prevented from attending class by a hostile group of pro-Hamas and anti-Israel MIT students that call themselves the CAA [Coalition Against Apartheid, apparently].

This is after students from the CAA harassed MIT staff members in their offices for being Jewish and interrupted classes in the past few weeks. All of this has occurred with no clear response from the administration. With each passing day, MIT admin’s silence makes Jewish and Israeli students feel unsafe at MIT.

Many Jewish students fear leaving their dorm rooms and have stated that they feel MIT is not safe for Jews. This message is compounded by the public and private warnings of Hillel and many faculty that Jewish students should not enter MIT’s main lobby today, November 9th, 2023.

Instead of dispersing the mob or de-escalating the situation by rerouting all students from Lobby 7, Jewish students specifically were warned not to enter MIT’s front entrance due to a risk to their physical safety. The onus to protect Jewish students should not be on the students themselves.

Disgraceful...

Basically the leading academic institution in the country.

Is it any better at CalTech ?

[Sarah Barracuda]

I swear I woke up and it’s 1933 honestly is America gone

[dinodino]

I feel you

[Rummyfan]

Basically the leading academic institution in the country. Is it any better at CalTech ?

That is an ongoing point of (mostly humorous) contention between the two.

[glorgau]

The administration at MIT is hopelessly, hopelessly woke. Lots of Jews are in positions of power there. Heck, my old boss there was was a ham and eggs for breakfast Jew.

[Reverend Wright]

It the anti-semitic garbage at CalTec to the same level ?

[Rummyfan]

No idea.... but Cal Tech has not been in any news I’ve seen.

[alternatives?]

Is it going to be much longer before white males are subject to the same thing?

[DeplorablePaul]

So Hamas loving mobs are allowed to roam free and terrorize Jews? What does a CAA thug have to do to get expelled? Jews and their allies need to form a militia.

“The onus to protect Jewish students should not be on the students themselves.”

Some day, soon, some Jewish students are going to take it upon themselves to protect themselves.

It’s just what the Palis want. I hope the Jews make it worth the effort.

I’m glad my son went to RHIT instead.

“The administration at MIT is hopelessly, hopelessly woke. Lots of Jews are in positions of power there.”

They thought that a Leftist America would be “Good for the Jews”, and had a disproportionate influence in making that happen.

They bought the ticket. They should enjoy the ride.

MIT President. Sally Kornbluth is MIT’s 18th president. She is a cell biologist whose eight-year tenure as Duke University’s provost has earned her a reputation as a brilliant administrator, a creative problem-solver, and a leading advocate of academic excellence. …

[Carl Vehse]

The school needs to be renamed Nazichusetts Institute of Technology.

[NoLibZone]

Well, as a nation, America could no longer ask, “How could the Germans do that?”

Germany, the UK , France, Spain they’ve all made it illegal to support hamas.

Here you can call for the killing of Jews under the banner of free speech.

The administration at MIT is hopelessly, hopelessly woke.

There may be some truth in what you say. However, here is a link to a recent headline in the Boston Globe:

"MIT administrators warn pro-Palestinian student protesters, and counter-protesters, of possible suspension"
