Jewish Hatred Ironically Found in ‘Safe Spaces’
American Thinker ^ | 13 Dec, 2023 | R.W. Trewyn

How the horrifying atrocities in Israel against Jewish women and children on October 7th could result in an explosion of hatred towards Jews in America makes no sense. It defies all logic, and the initial epicenter of that hate was on “safe space” college campuses.

But, then, maybe it’s understandable if you consider the role of “socialist-loving ‘intellectuals’” or, anti-American academics. When assessing the hate that I encountered returning from combat in Vietnam in 1969, that group came out on top as the leading offender.

Today, socialist-loving “intellectuals” are the root cause of the hatred against the Jewish people. They’ve been sowing the seeds of animosity for decades; the targets just change. So, when broadly-based loathing of any societal element arises, you can look to the college campuses as the likely perpetrators. Since October 7th, it has been illuminated as antisemitism.

College students nationwide didn’t come up with it on their own. “The rot at academia’s heart” is to blame. Academe’s “Hitler youth” of today noted therein are merely regurgitating what was shoved down their throats by socialist-loving “intellectuals.” As also noted in that recent appraisal: “Hurting someone’s feelings can get you kicked out. Calling for the slaughtering of an entire race … meh!”

Sick!

Since the buck stops at the top, university presidents should obviously be held accountable as highlighted in the blog above, but the three that recently testified before Congress (Liz Magill, Claudine Gay, Sally Kornbluth) were likely DEI hires. Qualifications matter little, if at all, when diversity, equity, and inclusion are factored in. Plus, as specified in my previous piece, IED and DIE are more accurate descriptors than DEI.

Accountability may still win out though. One of the three has resigned—almost certainly with the only other option being termination by the university’s board...

The leftist professors that are indoctrinating the students need to be fired too. The university presidents are responsible for preventing the professors from spreading their leftist rot.

Hate for Jews is totally drummed up by Satan. He and his demons spread the hatred all across the Earth.

They belong to God and that one fact enrages him to destroy them any way he can.......................

"Safe space" for hatred, provided by progressive American politics.

Today's version of Herbert Marcuse's notion of "Repressive Tolerance"

"Part of this struggle is the fight against an ideology of tolerance which, in reality, favors and fortifies the conservation of the status quo of inequality and discrimination. For this struggle, I proposed the practice of discriminating tolerance. To be sure, this practice already presupposes the radical goal which it seeks to achieve. I committed this petitio principii in order to combat the pernicious ideology that tolerance is already institutionalized in this society. The tolerance which is the life element, the token of a free society, will never be the gift of the powers that be; it can, under the prevailing conditions of tyranny by the majority, only be won in the sustained effort of radical minorities, willing to break this tyranny and to work for the emergence of a free and sovereign majority - minorities intolerant, militantly intolerant and disobedient to the rules of behavior which tolerate destruction and suppression."

Repressive Tolerance From 1969.

Yup. Academic gobbledygook that "tolerance" should be "repressive" because he and others at the end of the Frankfurt School argued always for "the struggle." As has been otherwise observed about this mentality, it's never about the issue, but always about the revolution. The struggle. And about "dangerously radical implications."

The socialist-loving intellectuals I’ve known were almost exclusively Jewish.

I think we should TERMINATE HARVARD.

NOTHING BUT CRAP HAS COME FROM THAT UNIVERSITY SINCE LONG BEFORE I CAN REMEMBER.

ASK YOURSELVES:
DOES OUR BELOVED COUNTRY REALLY NEED HARVARD ANYMORE?

He's angry at them for introducing the concept of God into the world.

Are you saying that those Christians who hated, oppressed, and murdered Jews for most of the last two milenia actually worshipped Satan?

There is nothing safe about safe spaces. Safe spaces are incubators of Marxist communism among the extreme leftist progressive democrats who indoctrinate students and brainwash them with woke propaganda.

Quite so.

So you are saying that for two thousand years Christians followed the devil’s orders? What else did they do at his command?
