“The woke Left has been exposed in spectacular fashion as a complete and total fraud. The very people who harassed us for years about our speech by demanding jobs be taken, SAT scores be thrown out, businesses be shut down for virtually any imagined offense that allegedly dehumanized a minority, have all gone silent on the open threats and attacks on Jews.
“They claimed that hate speech should be banned, even rendered unconstitutional because they said it’s violent. They claimed that they needed their own safe spaces where they would be ‘centered’ and not subjected to ‘triggering ideas’ and ‘arguments.’ They told us ‘intent to harm’ or ‘intent to offend’ did not matter. All that mattered was the effect of one’s words and effect alone would determine whether one’s career, academic record or ability to function in polite society to continue.
“Now with actual Jew hatred … and threats as explicit as ‘kill the Jews’ all over college campuses they say … absolutely nothing. The BLM crowd, Ibram X Kendi, Ta-Nehisi Coates, not only failed to condemn these behaviors, many in this woke crowd have participated in them and celebrated the Hamas atrocities against Israel.[“]
[I certainly HOPE that’s what we’re seeing, but I’m less confident in that outcome. The radical Left still runs college campuses and still gets all their subsidies. They are offering a wimpy-at-best response to the exposure of Woke Inc’s virulent anti-Semitism. It will take more of a purposeful intervention to collapse it. — Ed]
