Notable that the concept of “anti-Palestinian racism” has never entered the American political lexicon. Amid all the concern about Israeli brutality inciting antisemitism, no one stops to wonder about the ideology that makes Palestinian suffering so acceptable.
Those who mouth off like this have rarely read, say, Dialectic of Enlightenment. Or Lacan’s Écrits. Or Andrea Dworkin’s Intercourse. Or any Marx beyond the Manifesto. You can reject these traditions in whole or part but still recognize they have important things to teach.
Is America a force for good in the world? I debated the socialist thinker @dbessner in Round 2 of our ongoing disagreement. Yes, I still believe in America, even though Gaza sometimes makes me doubt myself. wisdomofcrowds.live/p/a-debate-abo…
What happened is that people alleged without evidence that Jewish students were not safe on campus, then when Columbia canceled in-person classes to get them off their back, they presented it as proof of their initial claim that protesters were putting Jewish students in danger.…

So many eminent universities have stooped so low. Standing w/ my NYU colleagues & all others defending our students’ & fellow faculty members’ basic right not to be arrested for peacefully expressing opinions. Unless a crime is committed, cops shouldn’t be making campus arrests.

This at least has the virtue of being an internally consistent position.
Heavy-handedness and cowardice just about captures it. It's mind-boggling that this is where we're at. Well said from @ishaantharoor.

A history lesson about Atlanta is that it is the only major city that didn't have a riot after MLK's assassination. That is because the leadership traditionally listens to communities and works with them ("The Atlanta Way.") It's good Morehouse is hearing students out.

A masked member of the security forces hauls away the old-lady chairwoman of the Emory philosophy department. A) This is plainly unreasonable (it looks Putinist). B) It will have a mushroom-cloud-sized Streisand effect on the protests’ underlying message.

@DanFriedman81 Do you have any evidence that not a single person in the encampment would be open to a two-state solution? I suppose it's possible, but that's not the sort of thing that should be asserted without evidence. More to the point, the idea that support for a binational state is…

Earlier today I saw a post claiming she had been "blinded in one eye". It’s just nonstop propaganda all the time and most of the people doing the propaganda 100% believe it. It’s a fascinating case of mass self-delusion and truly incredible to see unfold in real time.

In a way we are right back to the discourse in October, when all of a sudden elite schools are tripping all over themselves for neutrality after violating it again and again. Shadi Hamid is right to harp on this hypocrisy.
Suppose the university administration had not acknowledged the hostages, or was casually investing in companies whose portfolios profited Hamas: Would you support a multiday/night protest to demand university corrective action?
Here's the test. If you're pro-Israel, and students formed a tent encampment in solidarity with Israel, would you support the police forcefully removing them? I think we know the answer. You'd be much more sympathetic to the protesters, because you agree with their cause.
And it’s not just our students & colleagues feeling the boot of short-sighted repression. It is journalists, too. FIRE defends free speech for all—regardless of how conservative or liberal their views. And they are 100% right. This repression is un-American & unconstitutional.
The shocking scenes out of Texas tonight of law enforcement physically assaulting journalists are un-American and unconstitutional. The First Amendment protects our free press. Journalists play an invaluable and constitutionally protected role in documenting events, giving…
One video from Emory University—one of the best universities in the South—showed multiple officers tasing a person. Other videos showed Kate Rosenblatt, a religion & Jewish studies professor at Emory, holding up a sign that read, “Hands off our students!” theguardian.com/us-news/2024/a…
I don’t think there’s any compelling national interest for the U.S. to deeply involved in the Israel-Palestine conflict and would even argue its role is injurious. But if it is going to be involved there needs to be full ability for American citizens to freely debate this policy.
According to very smart people, wearing masks at these protests proves you’re pro-Hamas
I guess sending in mask-wearing cops to arrest philosophy professors is the new free speech
@shadihamid @neontaster Thanks, it's a thoughtful critique on Rep. overreach. Supports the call for consistency and moral clarity amid a contentious debate. The stance would also seem to suggest that we need to avoid the temptation to paint groups (pro Israel, pro Palestine, etc.) with a broad brush.
@shadihamid Imagine if it were a protest against allowing trans women to participate in college sports. And then school administrators called the police on them and had them arrested while Dem politicians demanded it. They would be screaming about how the US is a tyranny for months.
@dave_not_here @shadihamid Do you have the list of Jewish students who have been injured or killed at these violent protests? Do you have any of their names? Where is the violence breaking out in large numbers at these protests? You just see words as violence, and want it silenced based on that theory.
I see the escalating arrests as symptoms of the Trumpocene, an escalatory politics of panic disguised, even to those who pursue them, as a feeling of crisis that justifies--demands--ever more extreme responses.
Why see this as the Trumpocene when Biden is clearly in support of this?
I see the escalating arrests as symptoms of the Trumpocene, an escalatory politics of panic disguised, even to those who pursue them, as a feeling of crisis that justifies--demands--ever more extreme responses.
@shadihamid The lack of cultural and linguistic competency is striking - both with "martyr" and now with "uprising": oversightboard.com/news/129990316…
This goes in both directions. Many people aren’t consistent; some people are. I think in general we should be reluctant to equate words with violence.
I love how a lot of the people who were saying words aren't violence just a few years ago have now basically reversed their positions because they disagree with the Palestinian cause and find any kind of pro-Palestinian speech threatening.
This is it exactly. You either believe in free speech or you don't. As a Reagan Republican in college, I was against divestment in South Africa because of the strategic implications for the existential struggle against godless Communism. I still stood alongside my Democratic 1/
Here's the test. If you're pro-Israel, and students formed a tent encampment in solidarity with Israel, would you support the police forcefully removing them? I think we know the answer. You'd be much more sympathetic to the protesters, because you agree with their cause.
What happened is that people alleged without evidence that Jewish students were not safe on campus, then when Columbia canceled in-person classes to get them off their back, they presented it as proof of their initial claim that protesters were putting Jewish students in danger.…
There's no evidence that students have been forcefully prevented or blocked from entering classrooms. And it's unclear how a tent encampment would restrict that ability.
@shadihamid If you go into the cross-tabs, you discover that this result is largely driven by nominal Catholics or Black Protestants who identify as evangelicals. Here's the filters for "white evangelicals in an evangelical church they attend at least weekly", which gives 78% to 21%.
