The Establishment Bestows Authoritarian Protection on College Campuses for Its Favored Groups: Zionists and Women
Democrats encouraged progressives to run wild over Black Lives Matter in 2020, contradicting their own pandemic policies. Now, with Israel in the crosshairs, Genocide Joe says protests are disorder.
Zionists are really trying to prove conspiracy theorists right. In their hubris, the American Jewish lobby does more damage to themselves than they seem to fathom.
A few months ago, American Jews did one of the most unintentionally hilarious things in my lifetime: publishing an open letter signed by 260 Jewish figures in entertainment calling on Hollywood to include Jews among the protected identities subject to DEI benefits and privileges, based on the idea that Jews are somehow underrepresented in the movie industry. I believe you all have a word for that: chutzpah.
On Wednesday of this past week, the House of Representatives passed a bill by a vote of 320-91 that broadens the definition of antisemitism on college campuses for the Department of Education to enforce, amid widespread protests against Israel’s ongoing war with Hamas. The bill, which equates criticism of Israel with a hate crime, was supported by clear majorities from both major parties.
Since the ugly (though clearly anticipated) October 7th attack by Hamas that has spurred a brutal retaliatory campaign by Israel, Zionist propaganda has gone into overdrive. One domestic campaign sponsored by New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft includes a litany of TV spots that implores viewers to post the blue square, shares dubious statistics about the extent that antisemitism has been on the rise, and attempts to connect “the tide of rising Jewish hate” to “rising black hate, Muslim hate, queer hate” and so forth. Following the start of the protests, Kraft has pulled his donor money from Columbia University and taken out full-page newspaper ads decrying the antisemitic nature of them.
That should sound familiar to anyone schooled in the woke moral panics of the last decade. Posting a colored square was a hallmark of the days following George Floyd’s death and the ramp up of the Black Lives Matter protests. Israel’s messaging is well attuned to the mores of progressivism that have prevailed in recent years. In chastising progressives for opposing their state-sanctioned violence against Palestinian civilians, Zionists will often invoke Israel’s friendliness with the LGBT community and chides progressives for siding with Muslims who surely don’t share their rainbow-tinted views when it comes to gay people, trans people, gender ideology, and a host other issues.
What’s more, expanding the scope of identity based transgressions has been a staple of the woke moral panics of the last decade. MeToo started out as a movement against rape and sexual assault. Once it began to gain ground, the umbrella of supposedly unacceptable behaviors grew and grew (you can thank it for the brain-dead discourse on age gaps in consensual relationships), and the offenses were flattened to ensure devastating punishment across the board, as emboldened bloodthirsty activists saw more opportunities to wrest power away from men or even just to destroy men for more and more marginal acts. The Shitty Media Men List was a great example of this - men accused of “awkward dates” received more or less the same insanely intense public shaming that men accused of rape did. The same thing happened with microaggressions against black people during BLM. Liberals enabled these power grabs, and the same dynamic is now being turned against them, as many spent years warning liberals would happen, only for that message to fall on the deaf ears of a slew of repugnant identitarian opportunists.
Another common thread among these movements: Jews believe they can define anything as antisemitism, even criticism of a genocidal campaign carried out by a Jewish ethnostate. Black people frequently claim it is impossible for them to be racist, something former WNBA player Sheryl Swoopes claimed just a couple months ago, which identity reductionist corporate media goons lined up to agree with. Feminists insist they can never be wrong in a conflict with a man, and believe that false accusations by women are so “vanishingly” rare the possibility of them should never be taken seriously, and count on their dutiful liberal media propagandists to spread their lies and never cover anything that would run counter to such narratives. These are all supremacist positions - an attempt by each identity group to create absurd privilege for their tribe that would allow them to abuse others with impunity. Each of these groups bellyache constantly about the spectre of white supremacy (or in the case of feminists, that and the “patriarchy”), applying the term to all kinds of nonsense that doen’t fit the label, while also smearing any attempt by white people or men to simply advocate for themselves. Of course there are actual white supremacists and misogynists, but these groups have spent so much time ridiculouly inflating the risk of them and muddying the water that it’s hard not to roll one’s eyes when they go back to the well. I’ve stood against actual white supremacists my whole life; I also stand against this evil.
To some extent, progressives seem to see through this latest open manipulation by Zionists, which is rare, because, if anything, progressives have been far too easy to manipulate by establishment interests when it comes to social justice. Wokies have spent the last decade doing the bidding of establishment interests while desperately (and unconvincingly) trying to cling to their anti-authority self-conception. Part of the reason the current resistance to Israeli narratives has taken the shape it has is because defense of Palestine has long been a left-wing concern while supporting Israel has long been the purview of the American right, so the conflict tracks along established culture war terrain. The paint-by-numbers picking of sides has already been done for them. Only this time the leadership of the Democrats, who encouraged progressives to run wild during other panics, have joined with the Republicans in forbidding objection to Israeli aggression.
So it’s all the more telling when within the last few weeks the Biden administration has renewed its discriminatory Title IX rules, returning the kangaroo courts to college campuses with the explicit mission of expelling men for sexual misconduct allegations without ever coming close to proving their guilt, creating massive potential for false allegations, and the reaction from progressives is resoundingly nothing. The lying legacy news media continues to cover it with decidedly slanted feminist activist language, referring to accusers only as “survivors,” as is their usual dishonest rhetorical tactic. Making an accusation alone does not make one a “survivor” of anything on its own, and granting automatic victim status to anyone making an accusation is nothing more than psychological manipulation to shore up support for those accusations.
We all know these discriminatory policies bleed over into the professional world, because of The Shitty Media Men List, which the lying, gutless media never attempted to cover with a shred of truth, and many of these self-styled “radicals” supported despite it clearly being used as corporate propaganda to root out industry scapegoats. It was all ass-covering in the middle of a moral panic. The media has done nothing but lied about it, lied about changing their standards to protect Joe Biden when he was accused of sexual assault during the 2020 primaries, then swept it under the rug once they realized that covering it honestly would be disastrous for them. These media goons are forever complicit in destroying people’s lives, not caring whether it was right or not, and lying about it for years.
Now that the lying media is heavily propagandizing for Israel, is there a reckoning for how wokie liberals were fooled time and again over the last decade, when it came to propaganda relating to MeToo, BLM, CRT, DEI, gender detransitioning, the pandemic, the vaccines? No, of course not, according to these simpletons - they think they can simply pick and choose which establishment propaganda they wish to oppose. As if there’s not a sinister ulterior motive when the powers that be just happen to be pushing your pet issue. The Democratic establishment will let you protest all day every day when it’s a domestic culture war issue that suits them. But when it’s a foreign policy diktat in service of empire? You dumbass kids better shut the fuck up and fall in line. And therein lies the real crux.
It’s always equal parts hilarious and grating when left-liberals carry on about Republican supporters being bootlickers. Liberals are bootlickers too - especially the self-hating men happily encouraging policies intended to rip them apart with impunity. Do you all really want this? To create a standard where some hyper-privileged white woman is able to reduce you to rubble with just her word? When you can’t even face the evidence against you? Then, after you’ve been expelled, what’s going to happen when you have to admit later on that it was for a “conviction” of sexual misconduct? Job offers instantly withdrawn; friends and acquaintances ostracizing you; strangers feeling emboldened to treat you as cruelly as they would like because, guess what, you’ve now been identified as an acceptable target for all manner of awful behavior. You can’t kid yourself anymore - this is what the shitlibs have planned for you, and they’ve spent a decade-plus making that clear. Once you’re destroyed and you complain that they used reckless and discriminatory tactics to do it, get ready for them to smear you as a bitter loser incel as a means to mindlessly blow off your argument and make you radioactive to bystanders, and then you’re fucked forever.
Another MeToo story that has broken within the last few weeks is Harvey Weinstein’s conviction in New York being thrown out due to prosecutorial mismanagement, similar to Bill Cosby’s conviction being vacated in 2021. The MeToo propagandists certainly don’t want to mention how the movement has been plagued by sloppiness, reckless tactics, and stripping people of their civil rights in the all-consuming zeal to destroy, whether deserved or not. You might say these lapses are proof that women are so babied by liberals they think they are allowed to do anything, and it all falls apart once they run into a situation that requires standards of conduct. For men, it’s “consequences and accountability” for all manner of behavior. For feminists, it’s endless media spin, excuses, and coddling them like babies.
Against my better judgment, I read some of the reaction articles from liberal media outlets to the Weinstein news and they all followed the same pattern of melodrama and proclamations of “we won’t go back” instead of maybe possibly examining how the movement is plagued by a lack of discipline and slipshod tactics. Nah, why do that when you have the combined forces of legacy media and academia around to constantly lie for you and cover for your mistakes? Hilarious that women are still trying to play the underdog when some of the most oppressive institutions in the empire have fully sided with them. Even when they’re lying so horribly that a 5-year-old could see through it, you gotta Hashtag Believe Women!!!!!!!
The endless Israeli propaganda and cancelling of critics should have served as a wake-up call. But liberals remain constitutionally unable to learn anything from their failures, and the strain of embarrassing denialism that liberal cancel culture is real still inexplicably crops up in 2024. You might have fooled someone in 2015. You look like the world’s biggest jackass trying that now. The problem for fake-left liberals is they’ve spent so much time uncritically approving similar identity based tactics that they have no leg to stand on to oppose the latest salvo. Sorry, shitlibs, you helped create the playbook for Israel, and you can’t undo it without jettisoning some sacred cows of your own.
