Now that they've ousted the black female head of an Ivy League university, I'm sure the far right will continue its good-faith campaign against antisemitism and academic ethics violations.

Racism v. Antisemitism? Is that the equivalency being drawn here? The idiocy of the right has no bottom.

I am excited to see the results of the plagiarism survey they complete on the other heads of all the other universities.

"They" ousted the white female head of an ivy league university quite a deal faster. The Harvard Board sucked their thumbs for some reason. Her position was untenable.

Every one of those three university presidents would have been fired immediately if the question was about justifying slavery. But it wasn’t. It was about calling for the genocide of Jews. All any of them had to do is say how awful and dangerous that call to genocide would be, and then…1/

I'm sure the dozens of old tenured professors at Harvard who could easily be ousted for worse academic plagiarism will find a similar fate

I don't have a thoughtful or even verbose way to say I agree with your concerns/points. But I do agree. Disturbing, unsettling, frightening, this.

I mean, we've all seen how serious they've been about supporting women's high school sports, something they're clearly deeply concerned about.

Something I learned making You're Wrong About is that mobs rarely come after women and minorities for nothing. There's alway some minor transgression that gives the far right an excuse —and elite institutions cover for appeasing them.

I've had to ask a lot of people who were criticizing my takes on the issue to explain their mental road map of how Elise Stefanik and her ideological allies getting more power leads to a reduction in antisemitism and I gotta say, not impressed by the responses.

And, if course, we could discover Elise Stefanik copied her thesis word for word from a Funk & Wagnalls encyclopedia and it wouldn’t impact her job security. It’s not about standards; the asymmetry is a weapon, willingly fired by a cowed/complicit/compliant media.

As an academic I am feeling calm. Collected. Moisturised. In my lane. Centered. Unbothered. This is fine. This is fine. This is fine. I haven't devoted my life to crumbling institutions. This is fine.

Yeah - I mean, obviously, everyone who's ever lived has made some mistakes, and eventually, you can build up a narrative about them that's based only on making factually true statements. But it's wildly deceptive because none of it matters.
