Monday I shared how pro-Hamas protesters staged aggressive demonstrations outside of the Hillel at the University of Wisconsin-Madison which caused Jewish students to fear for their safety. In a terrifying new trend across the country Jewish students are being targeted: they’ve been barricaded into libraries, targeted on campus, are battling antisemitism, and feel unsafe. …
Other students also posted to their own social media accounts and included video, which I did not share, because the students felt unsafe. Police were called. The university admitted that tensions were at the point where police had to be called.
The University of Wisconsin-Madison responded by basically calling the students liars and their experiences “significantly exaggerated.” …
Instead of condemning antisemitism is the University of Wisconsin-Madison instead calling its Jewish students liars? The ones that the university admits had to call the police because pro-Hamas protestors in front of Hillel made the students feel unsafe?
[It doesn’t sound like an exaggeration to me, nor does it when looking at the context of having college campuses explicitly chant “from the river to the sea,” a slogan for Israel’s annihilation — and that of the Jews in the Middle East. The same Academia locations that made misgendering and “deadnaming” into violations of speech codes and “safe spaces” now want to pretend that fears from chanting Hamas supporters on campus are ‘exaggerated.’ YGBFKM. — Ed]
