Or this is a strategy to create a backlash and then declare martial law.

I mean Department of Defense, I mean War, funds 80% of CS research. So yeah.

Fascism has fully arrived.

STATEMENT FROM ABBE LOWELL,
ATTORNEY FOR DON LEMON

Continuing my lonely crusade against antisemitism in academia. The chilling line “what did Jews do to make themselves so hated?” Is one I hear often without a hint of shame or self awareness.

Here is exhibit A from a current law suit.

An academic "spiral of silence"

You think we don't see them doing "AIPAC <cough cough> Jews <cough cough>"

We know who they are REALLY blaming ...
