The ideological capture goes back way more than the past 15 years.

Why is Harvard more deferential to the Pritzker billions than to the USG’s billions?

Societies fall from within. Perhaps this is the goal....Destroy yet another American “foundation”.

Good Riddance to this one.

The Frankfurt School started at Columbia in 1933.

Under DEI, one’s degree of oppression is determined based upon where one resides on a so-called intersectional pyramid of oppression where whites, Jews, and Asians are deemed oppressors,

Asians were never deemed oppressors, though DEI has reserved seats for blacks and Latinos who score lower than Asians in admissions tests.

Only whites were deemed oppressors.

And it's only recently that Jews were treated as "white," hence, oppressors.

If Asians and Jews were not harmed by DEI, it's likely there still wouldn't be any pushback against DEI.

They are like California, too far gone to save at this point.

Eugenics was at Harvard before that.

Harvard's biggest problem is that billionaire heiress Penny Pritzker dominates the board. Pritzker also gave us Obama. The Pritzkers are a boil on America's ass.

The Harvard Schools of Law, Business, and Government should be razed to the foundations, the grounds sown with salt, and all the professors driven into the wilderness naked.

I’m good accept with the naked part. I pitty the forest animals that would have to bear witness the sight of a nude, geriatric, leftist academic.

What an awful, awful, sight.

Tar and feathers, sir, you forgot the generous application of tar and feathers to the said professors…

If Harvard continues on its current path, it won’t be long before permanent and irreversible damage is done.

Too late: permanent and irreversible damage has already been done.

Eugenics was at Harvard before that.

So were Havelock Ellis' writings and peyote.

Yes, indeed—way too much evil starts with and is steered by the Brits!

Light skinned Asians, in the most recent iteration of intersectionality, are honorary white folk.

Harvard science is still world-class in excellence! But viewpoint diversity at Harvard must be nourished!

And Penny Pritzker must resign!

By the way, I read Bill Ackman’s Twitter feed daily.

The left does not use terms such as "honorary white folk." That sounds like something a white nationalist would say.

The Nazis did grant Japanese, and certain Jews, the status of "Honorary Aryans."

The left might call some Asians "white adjacent," which is a rung lower than "white." It implies a sell-out POC who has some white privilege, but not full white privilege.

You are right. See my tagline. However, I believe we are just cutting off the dead skin at this point, not really into the organs.

My comment below was previously used on another thread, but it is relevant. Let me also state that the Muslims often say "First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people".

...

Jews have won 129 Nobel prizes over the years, mostly in the sciences and medicine. Harvard's racist treatment of Jewish students and professors should be noted. They have been prohibited from getting to their classes and offices, and have been threatened or physically assaulted on campus by anti-Jewish thugs.

Harvard's inaction in these situations is a clear and present danger to the scholarly and research profile of the country. If that University cannot fix itself, it would be best if scholarly and research projects were moved from Harvard to more humanely guided institutions.
