The Trump admin cut $400 million from Columbia under the guise of “protecting Jews.” Now they’re freezing $175 million in Penn funds under the guise of “protecting women.” It’s not about protecting any of us. It’s about gutting our institutions and our democracy. www.thedp.com/article/2025... - ThreadSky

Nazi rapists aren’t protecting Jews or women.

Correct. It's about eradicating any institutions where people might grow a brain and think that Nazism is bad.

This is 100% out of the Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot, Putin, Saddam playbook. Get rid of the educated "elites" and replace them with young, extremist Party loyalists.

It should be noted that both Hitler and Stalin took great pains to vilify the intelegencia as well.

What else won’t protect Jews— and will in fact endanger our lives, is the mask ban Kathy Hochul is trying to force through the New York budget. Help us make calls:

It’s ultimately about destroying higher ed, which produces people who know things™️ and thus have expertise - and who are in a position to call out bullsh!t and be believed

Plus, it’s easier to control people if they *don’t* know things
