Columbia, NYU, George Washington, & more—universities are punishing students for mentioning Netanyahu's US funded genocide of Palestinians in their commencement speeches.

Imagine recruiting kids with the promise they can change the world—then slamming them for daring to.

Such hypocrisy & cowardice

Trump: *stammers through some of the most garbled nonsense you've ever heard*
Savvy NYT politics reporter:

America did a lot of terrible stuff to Dr. King, like jailing and abusing him and trying to get him to kill himself and killing him, but probably nothing so obscene as reinventing him in popular memory as some milquetoast whose primary concern was not hurting white people’s feelings.

Nobody ever pronounced a name they encountered in a book wrong. They just might have pronounced it differently to other people.

I am going to lose my mind.

The people equating Hamas and all Gazans are elected officials with considerable power over how many of the latter are killed.

The people upholding Hamas are random college students.

You cannot on the one hand demand that people sympathize with the children lost in the brutal attack in Israel and then minimize the children killed in Gaza.

Too many people are demanding humanity for only their own. We can't fall for that trap.

Getting dueling “if you talk about anything but the terrorist murder of innocents, you’re an anti-Semite” vs. “if you talk about anything but the suffering of oppressed Palestinians you’re a racist colonist” and quite frankly I invite these folks to fuck right off.
