John’s… lost the plot — again, tonight.
Y A W N.
He spent his whole adult life… barking about the evil of any academic speech code.
Now he screams that Harvard and MIT must immediately enforce theirs, against all who might disagree — even mildly — with Israel’s current posture, as to/on Gaza.
And the only thing that has changed… is that he cynically sees new donors at his blog — and think tank — as a possibility if he cuts against what he’s claimed to believe for his whole adult life.
Update — late on 12.07.2023: Bill Otis is now trying the same gambit. Maybe he and Paul should re-join John’s blog. Heh.
Charming. Both of their bedrock principles are… for sale.
Nope — zero surprise in that — especially on John Hinderaker’s part.
Out.
