Reply to comment by Maccabee2 in The U.S. & the Holocaust, Episode 1: “The Golden Door” (2022) A xenophobic backlash prompts Congress to restrict immigration. Hitler and the Nazis persecute German Jews, forcing many to seek refuge. FDR is concerned by the growing crisis but is unable to coordinate a response. [02:08:43] by s_y_s_t_e_m_i_c_

That is not true. Nowhere at UC Berkeley are there “Jew-free spaces.” It was a gross misrepresentation of what some student groups were calling for, which stated that they did not want speakers, who spouted pro-apartheid policies in Israel. The Dean said this was not acceptable policy and only 10, out of 100 student groups adopted such policies. Now if you want to talk about Liberty University’s policy on Muslim speakers then we can talk about that.

What happened to the student group pushing this? UC Berkeley is anti Israel, and only tolerates Jewish people who enable their progressive agenda.

https://nypost.com/2022/09/30/uc-berkeley-blasted-for-creating-jewish-free-zones-with-pro-israel-speaker-ban/ Still won't look it up? Here, since you insist on being spoon fed.
Unless they reversed themselves in the last few days, in which case I will gladly delete my comment. Even then, that they would cave in to a handful of student groups is reprehensible.

> The University of California, Berkeley, was slammed Friday for creating “Jewish-free zones” after nine student groups adopted a rule forbidding pro-Israel speakers at events.

That’s not a Jewish free zone where does it say Jewish people aren’t allowed? You’re still lying

Oh boy the New York Post? Man you are stupid. It was never “Jewish-free.” It was a policy or by law that SOME student groups adopted about pro-apartheid Israeli speakers not be allowed on campus. The dean said this was not acceptable for students groups to do. This they were struck down.

I don’t know? Do you think they should be banned for using their First Amendment rights?

No they are not. They are extremely pro-Israel. Plus idk why you would support a country with some of highest abortion rates in the world.

People have been "warning" about (non-existent) rise of fascism for decades. It's not happening. We're closer to 2045 than 1945. Stop living in the past.

Ummmm? Hungary? Italy? Le Pen? Poland? Putin? If that’s not fascism then you truly are naive.

Literally the only one who comes close is Putin, and even then his rise to power was only made possible by the downfall of the communist state (Soviet Union) that also carried out imperialist policies for decades.

Also, speaking of Israel and "apartheid" in the same sentence is a gross misrepresentation.

No. No it’s not. It is a statement of fact. But you don’t really deal in facts, so you?
