@amsoufi_ Don't say what Rupa said. If you see it, just call it out for what it is: racist garbage. I don't think they say what they say because of "Zionism". I'm certain most of them are utterly ignorant about it. They probably barely know who Herzl is

Midway thru this steaming pile, Larry refers to Rashid Khalidi "who many see as anti-semitic." If you're going to slander a man, do it an the active voice, you pissant weakling!

My confidence in Harvard leadershipโ€™s ability and will to confront anti-semitism and the demonization of Israel continues to decline. Unfortunately, it is becoming ever clearer why Harvard ranks first on anti- semitism, even as it ranks last on upholding free speech. Confronting

@atrupar This is a lazy and boring take in normal times. It's cowardly and despicable during a genocide.

I'm sorry you're lonely. Maybe start a reading group and read some Palestinian writers. Hell, read Zionist and anti-Zionist writers. Throwing your hands up and saying "it's complicated" is lazy and boring in normal times. It's cowardly and despicable during a genocide.

@OzKaterji @christapeterso Are you not joking? Do you really think she's a sociopath? Why don't you tweet about it another 2 dozen times.
