At least a dozen more CEOs endorse Bill Ackman's vow not to hire Harvard students who blamed Israel for Hamas terror attack - as undergrads double down on their statement and whine about being 'flooded with racist hate speech'

The truth is the new hate speech as far as the left is concerned.

"Over a dozen business executives are joining the call to blacklist the Harvard students who put out a statement that blamed Israel for the Hamas attack, while the group whined about being persecuted in the aftermath."

While this may be the most obvious reason, and in this day and age of virtue signaling some of the executives might be less than genuine in their public stance, a different take might be:

1. Students who signed on to this have shown a serious character flaw
2. Those who signed on are probably of two types: those who stand loud and proud, and those who signed on but now want to hide their identity
3. While both types are less than desireable, the more repugnant of the two types are the second type--those are the Clintons, Pelosis, Schiffs, Romneys, Ryans, and Schumers of society.
4. The second type would quietly spread their toxicity in an organization, destroying it.

They may have excellent technical/business skills, but those 'soft' parts are the killer.

Ask one of these skulls full of mush what, EXACTLY, Israel has done?

I bet they cannot name one thing

Oh they can name lots of things. The fact that none of them are true does not mean anything to these scum.

Maybe so but they are both on the wrong side of the backlash

No, you are wrong.

They have said and continue decade after decade to say that Israel is illegally occupying Palestinian land

In succinct short language. Occupation

An interesting event occurred yesterday or the day before. Israel bombed to absolute smithereens what is termed a “refugee camp” within Gaza. What is pictured is block after block of the concrete rubble of the remains of multistory buildings. The “camp” was composed of multistory apartment buildings housing “refuges” that were dispossessed of their lands in Israel.

The actual refugees are long dead. What remains were the Hamas invaders of Israel. Killing Hamas and destroying their operational base involved creating dust out of the high rise buildings composing the “refugee camp”.

There were no innocents in the “camp”

Occupation means the entire state of Israel, to them.

They want Israel not to exist.

Picture of bubble bursting. The PSA could not imagine that they would be considered other than sympathetic victims.

This is encouraging.

As PJ O’Rourke said, in order to gauge which direction the political wind is blowing we should watch where the hot girls are.

This ain’t it.

I blacklisted Ivy League school graduates a long time ago.

Dylan was not filled with hate or any love for violence.

Mocking women and their behavior isn't hate? Really? I disagree.

Not Far Enough. Harvard should be closed permanently.

Harvard is proudly wielding the savage sword of Hamas butchers.

The U.S. government should seize the giant Harvard endowments in the billions of dollars and use the fortune to fight the war against terrorists trying to commit genocide in Israel.

What Harvard students are endorsing is the barbaric murder of babies and the elderly in Israel.

But he’s still good with students who routinely call America the most evil place on earth.

>>Even as some of the Harvard students who signed on to a letter placing the sole blame on Israel for the recent deadly attacks by Hamas took steps to distance themselves from the statement amid mushrooming backlash, a billboard truck began circling the streets surrounding the university’s campus on Wednesday, projecting the names and photos of signatories under a banner identifying them as “Harvard’s Leading Antisemites.”

>>The so-called “doxxing truck,” as The Harvard Crimson characterized it, was apparently organized by Accuracy In Media, a conservative media watchdog. The group’s president, Adam Guillette, took responsibility for the stunt on X, saying that his team was “removing the names of students from groups that withdrew but are also adding new names every hour.”

Accuracy in Media’s page lists the names; it also points out some groups withdrew their names from the letter, including Harvard Islamic Society and Amnesty International At Harvard.

This is something the next Republican president can do something about: end college degree requirements for government jobs wherever possible.

Interesting that they all seem to have an affinity for wearing patterned scarves around their necks even though it appears to be a warm day. Is that their club uniform?

I think this is great! They need to double down so future employers looking at their background can be certain that they are whack-a-doodles and did not just have a moment of youthful foolishness to fit in with the crowd.

Ensure a steady, eternal supply of baristas with Harvard degrees!

They ought to extend that to Brown, Cornell, Yale, Smith, and so on. The commies have openly revealed themselves in Academia for decades.

bet they all scrub their CV’s of any trace of membership in any of the groups listed too...

any HR/company what hires somebody with one of those groups listed on their CV, is just as bad as they are
