May 2024 · 2 minute read

“The teacher told the Jewish students to take their belongings, stand in a corner, and said, ‘This is what Israel does to the Palestinians.’ The instructor then asked, ‘How many people died in the Holocaust?’ When a student answered, ‘Six million,’ the lecturer said, ‘Colonizers killed more than 6 million. Israel is a colonizer.’ …

“The teacher … said, ‘Hamas is a legitimate representation of the Palestinian people. They are not a terrorist group. They are freedom fighters. Their actions are legitimate.’”

An "instructor"? WTF? Was he an adjunct teacher? Well, you get what you don't pay for. Fuck Stanford and fuck this "instructor".

I'm a college professor. I cannot ever imagine going into a classroom and singling out any group of students or any student like that.

Downplaying the Holocaust? This "instructor" should not be in a classroom. Yes, there have been comparable mass murders in numbers. indeed, Stalin and Mao were responsible for mass murders in greater numbers.

But the Holocaust is unique. You had the full weight of the Nazi regime deliberate targeting a specific group...European Jews...simply for being Jews.

You can criticize the policies of the Israeli government, but this guy is a moron.

For the record, adjuncts are considered faculty members...part-time faculty...but still faculty.

As an "instructor," he might have been a graduate student assigned to a course section, or a graduate assistant assigned to a discussion section of a class.

Not a graduate student. He has an BA and MA from Berkeley. There is no mention of him being a student now, anywhere.

See what happens when a Cal grad defects across the Bay? Stanford infected him with their Farm ideology.
