And that protest did not call for the destruction of India.

That’s not what I said. The protests are not about ending the war—they are about having Columbia divest from Israel and about the illegitimacy of Israel. Read the signs, listen to the chants, this isn’t subtle.

That story is about a protest of 100 students that didn’t block any access or camp out on university property. There’s no description of any disruption in that article. I don’t think Columbia would have done anything about a protest like that. It’s not analogous.

Do you think that if there was an encampment and protests calling for the destruction of India (created from British colonialist borders in mid-20th century and resulted in expulsion of Muslim Indians), the administration would say “carry on”?

Where precisely is the college campus where “you can say whatever you want” and more to the point, completely disrupt the operation of the college for whatever issue you want?

That’s not what the protests are about. And that poll question doesn’t ask about a desire to end the war.

Fully admitting my bias, the delusion of “tradwife” was debunked comprehensively decades ago in the award-winning book “More Work for Mother: The Ironies of Household Technology from the Open Hearth to the Microwave” by Ruth Cowan (my mother).

What is it about sandwiches? Did he read the David Brooks “sandwich as metaphor for clueless elites” column and decide he needed to one-up him?
