Summary
US universities are bracing for funding cuts and investigations as President-elect Trump and his allies target them in their anti-“woke” campaign, using the IHRA definition of antisemitism, which conflates criticism of Israel with antisemitism, to justify crackdowns on pro-Palestine activism.
Measures include threatening federal funding, revoking accreditation, and pressuring institutions to suppress protests.
Critics warn these efforts will chill free speech, stifle academic inquiry, and escalate censorship.
Civil liberties groups and educators vow to resist these attacks on higher education and political expression.
But I thought he thought antisemites were very fine people!
remember kids, a protest without the threat of escalation is no protest at all.
They come after your neighbors then the come after you. Yesterday and today it is “anti genocide” tomorrow “anti Republican”
Democrat standing by while universities beat up students normalized Republican similar behavior and laws.
Both parties are working for a class you are not a part of it.
Good thing we have those critics telling us that. Imagine if they didn’t! Holy cow what a world that would be, you might end up with a fascist government!
