Once again student leftists are at the “find out” stage, after their latest outburst of fucking around.
First, it was prestigious law firms going on record that they would decline to hire graduates of formerly prestigious Ivy League colleges:
A number of large law firms have already signalled their increasing reluctance to hire graduates from Harvard, Yale and Princeton. Mostly because a generation raised to believe that I Am Special and ‘words are violence’ aren’t going to be much use in a courtroom. These are students who not only cannot formulate a rational argument, but who fly into rages and tears when they encounter a view that opposes their own.

But the “find out” has really taken off as the student left descend into a maelstrom of brainless anti-Semitism. Because, for all their spouting anti-Jewish conspiracy theories, it apparently never occurred to them that, yes, a significant number of Jews are very successful in American business. Nor that said Jews might be just a tad reluctant to hire people who celebrate Hamas’ vile pogroms against Jews. Indeed even many non-Jewish business owners are as askance at hiring slavering Jew-haters as they would be at hiring hood-wearing Klansmen.
At least a dozen business executives have endorsed Bill Ackman’s call to deny hiring members of student groups at Harvard who signed on to a letter blaming Israel for Hamas’ deadly attack on Saturday that killed more than 1,200 people, including at least 22 Americans.
Jonathan Newman, the CEO of salad chain Sweetgreen, was among a group of business honchos who seconded Ackman in urging that the signatories of the letter circulated by the a coalition of 34 Harvard student groups who “hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.”
“I would like to know so I know never to hire these people,” Newman wrote in response to Ackman’s post on X on Tuesday.
“Same,” David Duel, CEO of healthcare services firm EasyHealth, wrote in response to Newman.

As the anti-Jewish hate on US campuses spirals out of control, even formerly spineless campus authorities are finally being goaded into action.
Columbia University on Monday began suspending pro-Palestinian student activists who refused to dismantle a protest camp on the New York City campus after the Ivy League school declared a stalemate in talks seeking to end the polarising demonstration.
University President Nemat Minouche Shafik said in a statement that days of negotiations between student organisers and academic leaders had failed to persuade demonstrators to remove the dozens of tents set up to express opposition to Israel’s war in Gaza.
The crackdown at Columbia, at the centre of Gaza-related protests roiling university campuses across the US in recent weeks, occurred as police at the University of Texas at Austin arrested dozens of students whom they doused with pepper spray at a pro-Palestinian rally […]
Campus police backed by Texas state troopers attempted to break up a large student protest using pepper spray and flash-bang charges, arresting at least 43 people, according to defence attorney George Lobb, who said he confirmed the number with court and jail staff processing the detentions.
Have fun finding out, baby brownshirts.
Jewish students are starting to show the sort of grit that has made Israel undefeatable against nearly a century of Arab warfare dedicated to wiping their people out.
Across town at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where opposing sides clashed over the weekend, pro-Israeli activists set up a large screen and loudspeakers to play a taped loop of images from the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel.

The only danger is that the Muslim students will start beating off to it.
In a more hilarious move, Jewish students fronted up to a “Banana free” pro-Hamas protest, eating bananas. Not just eating, waving bananas like “waving machine guns”.
Mass hysteria ensued among the leftists.
