Harvard graduate criticizes university for fighting Trump more than antisemitism.
Cherry-picking a random alum from Harvard and writing an extremely slanted article taking what they say as the truth. The article does several things wrong imo. 1. It ignores that Harvard is dealing with the threat of revoked funding and all students with visa's being removed. 2. It conflates antisemitism with anti-Israeli government rhetoric. Now antisemitism is a huge problem that should be taken seriously, and there are valid criticisms that Harvard has not done enough to curb it, but conflating anti-Israeli government protests and rhetoric with antisemitism is inaccurate and harmful journalism. It also supposes that a university cannot do 2 things at the same time, both fight legal battles that jeopardize the university and crack down on antisemitism.
