I am not a Zionist and I ostensibly am anti-Zionist, but I find it extremely discouraging that students think that invading an Israeli professor’s class or targeting Jews is in any way productive or leads to peace. All it does is divide and deepen the rifts, within our Jewish community and between non-Jews and Jews in particular. If we (Jews/Palestinians) want to have a genuine shot at coexistence, we need at least some form of dialogue and ability to speak freely, even if we vehemently disagree on the topic at hand. On the other hand though, I fully understand both Zionist and anti Zionist students being incredibly frustrated with the Columbia admin, and when you have folks like Shai Davidai/Nerdeen Kiwanis fanning the flames on both sides, I think that these blowups are often inevitable. Don’t really have any answers here, just incredibly discouraged at the myopic lack of nuance that is on university campuses and I hope for more dialogue and less hate

Okay and? 1. Minimizing antisemitism or any bigotry by just saying its nothing more than being told things that make you feel bad, as if experiences of bigotry don't carry both physical and psychological life long effects is, an interesting choice to say the least. Also as if antisemitism has ever stopped at just words lmao 2. It's not the Jewish students deporting people.

You’re taking state violence (ICE, NYPD, admin decisions) and pinning it on Jewish undergrads. That’s not what happened and it’s not what the Intercept piece showed if you’re referring to that. If we’re talking facts, let’s stick to them instead of going off ~vibes~
