ITHACA, NEW YORK — It’s socialist red at Big Red!
Cornell University’s lefty crowd gave Democratic Socialist superstar Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a warm, hate-filled welcome by singing anti-Israel chants at a campaign event meant to gin up support for Democrats ahead of the midterms Sunday.
While warming up the standing-room-only crowd of roughly 2,000 people gathered for the congresswoman’s “Students vs. Billionaires” town hall in downtown Ithaca Sunday, Cornell University Young Democratic Socialists of America co-chairs Mina Petrova and Zoe Reisman led the crowd singing “from the river to the sea” and declaring “long live the student intifada.”
“Cornell is fundamentally a capitalist institution that prioritizes billionaires and profit over students and community and is controlled by CEO trustees that are profiting off of genocide and war,” Petrova said to applause inside the Ithaca Downtown Conference Center.
The event, hosted along with the student activist organization More Perfect University, was billed by AOC’s campaign as “part of an effort by the Congresswoman to boost turnout in Democratic strongholds ahead of the November election.”
Ocasio-Cortez, who is campaigning upstate to boost her image ahead of a potential run for president or US Senate, took shots at Cornell for — what she says — amounted to suppressing free speech of student protesters.
“Whether it’s the issue about Palestine or many others. Whether it’s about people trying to fire those who are forming a union in their workplace, whether it’s people trying to speak up about a number of different issues, we have to respond to that first crackdown,” she said.

The City of evil.
For all the continents
To all the seas
Make the World
Islam free!
It’s the new Nazi anthem.
From the river to the Med, all these assclowns are the ones we dread. Stoopid, ignorant, clueless.
I am quite fond of that meme “From the river to the sea.” but it left out the last sentence.
“From the river to the sea. ISRAEL WILL BE!”
AOC=ALL OUT COMMUNIST
If Ocrazio-Cortex were to actually answer the question “which river?” she would probably answer - Mississippi.
From the river, Saint Corrie of Pancake will grease the treads of my D9 to the sea.
They all need to take a concreted boot dive into Lake Cayuga...
It's an embarrassment to live here. Fortunately, while I'm in the general area, I'm not downtown or on Cornell campus, so I'm somewhat insulated from this moronic sh*t.
City of Evil Bump.
99% of these ignoramuses have no idea which river and which sea but the intent is the destruction of the State of Israel and ALL its Jewish inhabitants.
Why an American political party has been hijacked by the Islamic Brotherhood and why they even chant Nazi like slogans is a mystery to most.
Years ago, there was a book written called “Hitler’s Willing Executioners”.
These ignorant scum are useful idiots espousing death and destruction against the Jewish people once again.
Why would Mamdani for example concentrate on the Democratically elected Prime Minister of Israel in the ONLY Democratic state in the Middle East and not on the affairs of the city for which he is responsible?
His Islamic backers are pushing their (and his) agenda via the American politcal system and woe to us who do not halt them.
those that wish to destroy rather than build
