Drexel Professor resigns amid threats over controversial tweets
CNN ^ | 12/29/2017 | Melissa Gray

A Drexel University professor who received death threats after posting several controversial tweets said Thursday he is resigning because the year-long harassment has made his situation "unsustainable."

George Ciccariello-Maher, a professor of politics and global studies, had been teaching his class remotely via video conference after being put on administrative leave, a move that Drexel said was for his own safety.

It actually is the priviledge of the majority in any country. Wait until blacks are the majority. You want to see priviledge? Just wait. Think: Zimbabwe.

Or just look a blighted US urban areas where blacks are the majority.

However, at a national level, Mexicans are more likely to be the majority in the US than blacks. This is why the Democrats are trying to promote politicians like Julian Castro. He and his allies have already displaced the gringos in the local governments of San Antonio and other towns in the southwest where Mexican nationals and Chicanos are the majority. That's their blueprint for the rest of the country.

Great news!

One down, thousands to go. Most faculties at most colleges are as despicable as this slimeball and they should all be chased out of their jobs.

In October, the professor tweeted that "Trumpism" and the "narrative of white victimization" were to blame for the mass shooting in Las Vegas that left 58 people dead and more than 500 wounded.

Okay, that now makes him the leading candidate for the 2020 democratic party's nomination for president.

Trump is going to have his work cut out for him.

If genocide is satire then death threats are too. If you can’t stand the heat...

Notice how the Tweets are sanitized as being merely “controversial”? If he had made the same comments about any other ethnic group, CNN would have called the Tweets “racist” and the professor would not have resigned, he’d have been fired or put on leave.

Good point. Those that allegedly threatened him should say that they were just doing so in the name of satire, then shouldn't all be forgiven? As a matter of fact, if someone does beat this guy within an inch of his life, that could be thought of a satire as well.

You see the same thing with media coverage of Antifa and BLM violence. When they attack people or property, rarely if ever are the words "hate" or "extremism" used. They're just good guys who are a little bit too enthusiastic about their righteous cause and who let their emotions get the better of them.

” this on himself by saying “All I want for Christmas is white genocide.””

I’m glad this professor told me what he thinks.

If the shtf, target selection and acquisition will be very important.

I’m sure he got plenty of feedback on him being the first to go.

You are correct.

And after all, if you’re really serious about it, don’t make threats.

I was going to post something similar, with one caveat:

My mother, widowed after 50+ years, remarried and became hyphenated to honor both my father and their marriage as well as her new husband.

That’s about the only time I see hyphenation as a good thing.

Drexel is an elitist institution & it costs about $70,000 a year. People in PA could send their kids to Penn State for a lot less.
