Protesters Remove American Flag, Raise Palestinian Flag in Harvard Yard
Breitbart ^ | 04/28/2024

Posted on 04/28/2024 3:47:42 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Protesters at an anti-Israel “encampment” in Harvard Yard removed an American flag from University Hall, the central administration building, and flew a Palestinian flag in its place Saturday before university staff intervened.

The Harvard Crimson reported:

Pro-Palestine student protesters at the Harvard Yard encampment flew three Palestinian flags from University Hall on Saturday evening.

A group of three protesters hoisted the flags over the John Harvard statue in the Yard, where the University sometimes flies the American flag or flags of the countries of visiting foreign dignitaries. As of 6:34 p.m., Harvard University Police officers were calling Harvard Yard Operations to remove the flag.

Evidently there are no men with balls left in Boston. They must have been removed by the communist mayor.

“The shocking thing is there was an American flag there to remove.”

Good one!

Parents: if you want your kid to learn job skills and acquire general knowledge, don’t send them to Harvard.

One of the reasons why younger people have tilted so strongly to Hamas, is because their entire schooling going back to primary school has featured nothing but oppression studies and radicalized conflict analysis in any history or current events class.

So there is several decades where radical material by the likes of (((Howard Zinn))) and others is the only type of conflict analysis that students have seen. And the prominent feature is that the White side is always the Colonialist, Imperialist Oppressor and Bad Guy. And the NonWhites are always the virtuous, innocent victims and Good Guys.

So if that is the only analytical framework Zoomers have, and they look at the video from Gaza, it turns out that it is the Jews from Israel are.. uhh.. ... the White Colonialist Oppressors and Villians.

And it doesn’t matter that Hamas are terrorists and criminals. Because the analysis mode the Zoomers know is Oppression Studies / Racialist analysis, where the Non-Whites are always the victims, no matter what they do or how they behave.

Being accepted is the whole thing. Acceptance at an Invy is a certification that you have the skills and are politically reliable to enter Regime Institutions at a leadership level.

Thank you!

The ruling elite will offer a compromise: the Palestinian flag comes down, the US flag stays down... and in its place the pride flag is raised.

I’m certain they want a new flag, not to represent a nation but as the start of a new international government: where their actors in other nations will do the same thing.

This is muslim’s end goal for the world.

What an atrocity.

The university needs to crash and burn. Anyone left supporting the university, which is allowing this to happen, is supporting the islamic destruction of the United States.

Anyone opposing this needs to pull all financial and other support from them until they deal with the *protesters*, and I probably wouldn’t even thien if I were contributing.

Lesbian model-turned DEI manager is fired by university for posing in front of Israeli flag emblazoned with swastikas - and is now suing over claims her free speech rights were violated (Minnesota)
Daily Mail ^ | 4/27/24 | Martha Williams

A model-turned DEI manager who was fired because she posed in front of an Israeli flag emblazoned with swastikas is now suing because her First Amendment rights were ‘violated’.

Mashal Sherzad, 29, was fired from her position as the diversity, equity and inclusion manager at the University of Minnesota because of now seemingly deleted pictures that she accidentally uploaded onto her public social media of her posing in front of the controversial flag.

Sherzad, who identified as Muslim, and who is in a relationship with a woman, began her role in October, 2023, and travelled to Barcelona to attend a pro-Palestinian rally just two months later. She shared pictures of herself from the rally - including snaps of her posing in front of the swastika-embezzled Israeli flag!

Maher: ‘A Lot of the Problem’ on Campuses Is Due to Them, Teaching Dumb Stuff Like Taylor Swift Courses
Breitbart ^ | 04/27/2024 | Ian hatchett
Posted on 4/27/2024, 6:53:17 AM by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher said that many of the campus demonstrators don’t know what they’re talking about and “a lot of the problem” is schools teaching ridiculous classes like Harvard’s course on Taylor Swift.

Wealthy, Elite Universities Like Harvard Taxed You $45 Billion In Last Five Years!

Posted on 4/27/2024, 8:23:42 AM by RicocheT

Who knew that the Ivy League and other wealthy institutions were taxing you, the American people!

Incredibly, it’s a $45 billion largess during the most recent five-year period.

Our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com quantified the federal payments on contracts and grants and special tax treatment of their endowments into the eight schools of the Ivy League plus Stanford University and Northwestern University.

Since 2018, $33 billion of federal contracts and grants flowed to these ten colleges – averaging $6.6 billion annually.

Today, these “educational” non-profits are more federal contractor than they are educator. Their $33 billion in federal contracts and grants outpaced their collection of undergraduate student tuition.

Furthermore, these schools reaped another $12 billion in special tax treatment benefits on the growth of their massive endowment gains (2018-2022). Endowments totaled $237 billion in 2022, up almost $65 billion from $172 billion in 2018.

Our society is very faddish / trendy and prone to taking these trends to extremes.

Much of what we claim to be environmentalism, national security, for public education, disease control has at least in part a degree of social fad, sometimes fueled by politics and business (power and money) and little to do with the cause they claim to be supporting. Yes, even being anti-Israel or pro-Ukraine, Covid, much of this LGBTQIA stuff floating out there today has all the classic signs of being a fad and having been sold to the public no different than when bell-bottom pants were in.

Former CNN host Don Lemon stated that “some of” the protesters are bigots, and “a lot of them don’t have the information needed because they’re getting their news from TikTok…and they don’t have the history of what’s going on.”

The elitists who rule this country come out of the Ivy league schools. When you see the attitudes of Harvard, and what Harvard tolerates, then you are seeing the mindset of the rulers of this country for the next 20 to 30 years at least.

Add UC Berkeley, Stanford and USC to your list to include west coast vermin.

FAKE HEADLINE. The article does not say the protestors removed an American flag. It says the protestors raised the flag on a pole that the American flag often hangs on.

It is like that young woman in the video: The protesters should all go over there and fight for Hamas if it means so much to them and leave the United States if it is so bad. Talk is cheap.

Funny thing is you don’t see this at community colleges. The students are too busy with school and working jobs.
