All the media personalities and academics whose job it is to “be black” are decrying the “racism” in the resignation of Harvard University president, serial plagiarist, and “diversity” hire Claudine Gay.
Because of course they are.
They don’t think that the wholly unqualified woman stole, lied, and refused to denounce Hamas terrorism… or rather, they don’t care that she did all those things. Some even acknowledge she did all those things.
No, what they are upset about is that “racist conservatives” got a “win” over “black people.”
None of that is true, of course.
What “won” here is the integrity of our American universities. We simply cannot have a person as the head of what is supposed to be one of the nation’s premier institutions of higher learning who spent her career stealing the work of other academics and writers and passing it all off as her own work. A person like that makes a mockery of academia.
Oh, but here they all come. The usual suspects, all gnashing of teeth and rending of cloth over the “racism” they are suffering as they earn millions a year and enjoy the status of being considered notable, important members of their fields.
So here they come, all the raaaaacim carnival barkers:
Racist mobs won’t stop until they topple all Black people from positions of power and influence who are not reinforcing the structure of racism. What these racist mobs are doing should be obvious to any reporter who cares about truth or justice as opposed to conflicts and clicks. https://t.co/HrRKzprnnv

The next president of Harvard University MUST be a Black woman.

When white people are hired in any position, the automatic assumption is they were the best person. When Black people are hired, it’s assumed we got there because of affirmative action — which by the way doesn’t mean under-qualified. If affirmative action never existed, a lot of… https://t.co/315ve3JxYY

NYT's @MaraGay on Claudine Gay resigning: "This is really an attack on academic freedom … This is an attack on diversity. This is an attack on multiculturalism, & … I don’t have to say that they’re racist, because you can hear and see the racism in the attacks" pic.twitter.com/vLFQqtesqG

How sad but predictable that the same figures and forces enabling the ethnic cleansing and genocidal attacks on Palestinians in Gaza – Ackman, Blum, Summers and others – push out the first Black woman president of Harvard! This racism against both Palestinians and Black people is…

Took a little while longer. But they eventually got the Black president ousted from Harvard. Happy New Year. https://t.co/Y0lmLmNC5B

The intimidation is the point. Will the next president at Harvard stand for diversity? Will that person be female? Will that person be Black? If not, they have forced several steps back. And everyone across the school gets the message. https://t.co/faMBUkja6p
