Drexel University Professor George Ciccariello-Maher sent an incredibly stupid tweet last year wishing for a "white genocide."
“All I want for Christmas is white genocide," were his exact words. It appeared to be one in a series of thoughts the professor should have kept to himself.

Following the justified backlash over the "white genocide" tweet, Ciccariello-Maher announced his resignation from Drexel. He didn't seem too regretful in his statement, however, defending his tweet as satire and arguing he is being forced to resign because of death threats from "right-wing, white supremacist media outlets and internet mobs."

Since his departure from Drexel, Ciccariello-Maher has maintained that there is a war on white nationalism within education.
"We are at war, and academia is a crucial front in that war," he wrote. "This is why the Right is targeting campuses with thinly veiled provocations disguised as free speech."
He has also retweeted pieces arguing that white nationalists are secretly pushing their agendas in schools.
Despite his history of controversial comments, he now finds himself employed in academia again. On Facebook this week, he announced that New York University has hired him as a visiting scholar at the Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics.
Think this skinny weasel will ever answer the questions you posed? Not yours per say, just in general. It’s so pathetic that statements such as his are just left out there, undefined and open to whatever idiocy the mindless idiots on the left can come up with.
However, to your point, I too would like him to define exactly what evidence he has to support his ‘bold’ statement.
Bring it you hyphenated Hippy. But please, oh please, lead from the front, you coward, so we get a good look atcha!
We're seeing how this is working out for the Venezuelans
It is ironic that NYU and Drexel are virtual fortresses in sanctuary cities with elaborate security forces designed to protect the professor from the very people he thinks are his allies.
Goodby nyu. Goodbye drexel. No soup for you.
Perfect example of an upwardly mobile failure.
Anything they’re accusing others of, you can be sure that they’re already guilty of it.
I think it is pretty much universally accepted that our institutions of education are run by white, Liberal, Union members (see Janet Napolitano), so he might possibly be right on the money. By accident.
