Peter Drucker, a lecturer at Frankfurt University when the Nazis took over, recalled a faculty meeting where the new Nazi boss said Jews were banned and anyone complaining would be sent to a concentration camp. A professor then asked a question: “Will there be more money for research in physiology?”

The following are acts of antizionist racism :
-Calling someone “genocidal” or a “genocide supporter.”
-Using slurs such as “zio” or “zionazi.”
-Forcibly defining another person as a “Zionist” without their consent, or using the term in ways that bear no relation to their own understanding of it.
-Mocking Israeli identity, culture, or national symbols.
-Mocking Jewish claims to indigeneity, ancestry, or history.
-Calling someone a “colonizer.”
-Calling someone a “baby killer.”
-Preemptively delegitimizing Jewish speech as “hasbara” or “Zionist propaganda”
-Accusing Israel of genocide while showing no interest in falsifiability, demonstration, or factual grounding.
-Using arguments from authority (such as listing a slew of antizionist institutions) to intimidate others into accepting libels as facts.
This is one of the most incredible things I’ve ever read.
It is, apparently 🙄, “anti Zionist racism” to call someone a “‘Zionist’ without their consent.”
Also, to call them a “colonizer” or “genocide supporter.”
I guess they really have completely worn out ‘antisemitism.’ 🤷🏻♂️

So apparently the administrators at Northwestern have caved to the extortionist demands of the Feds. Faculty voted 595-4 AGAINST this measure.

Treating Gaza’s Collective Trauma
In Gaza, where displaced children play games called “air strike” and act out death, the lack of mental-health resources has become another emergency.
By Mohammed R. Mhawish

I'm teaching about Gaza on Monday. I assigned this article. You should read it if you haven't, because the trauma it describes is unbearable and we all need to sit with it.

Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

A world without borders, one that acknowledges that our freedom to move is being violently denied by nation-states, is the way out of this mess.

As a friend recently pointed out, the tell-tale sign of authoritarianism is the state going after those who satirize it.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.
