Mahmoud Khalil is a waste of skin that can be better utilized by burn victims.
But so were those other NAZIs in Skokie 48 years ago.
The fact that he has so many allies amongst our most educated, allies who are indisputably citizens and canNOT (and should not) be exiled for mere words is a pretty horrific development that presents a far more thorny issue for our society that this specific people shaped colostomy bag does.

Yes. The basic problem is that for academic generations, the behavioralist fields in academia (history, sociology, LGBT studies, psychology) have been converging on the hypothesis of a magical conspiracy in ancient times that is witching us moderns, by telling us that fathers should not be having sexual intercourse with their daughters. For example. The inference that the Jews are to blame for one's own unhappiness is an inference carefully left unspoken. But many of these people have convinced themselves of it. Three or four years ago I was convinced that engineering programs had a future outside of the universities. Defunding gives me hope for reform, then I despair over the whining. Which is a me problem.

Oh believe me Pat, that unspoken inference is being shouted long and loud on X these days. (I'm not sure if they actually believe some of the outre' points they raise unsupported, or if it's just performative.)

I'm out of the Hospital and GOING TO SPAAAAACE! (Virtually)
Join us on the Twitch Channel at 6pm EST 11pm UTC* for a stream that we will begin with fireworks as we tune into the 8th launch of the Starship space transportation system. This rocket, improved and enlarged after the fiery pyrotechnic fun of the last attempt is the largest rocket ever made and, IF successful, will bring a true space age to humanity in the next few years. Grab a drink and a snack and join the conversation in chat as we watch the launch. Find out in real time if this launch results in engineering history or it results again in ***SPLODIES***!
* Yeah I've changed the time! this is the current estimate as the launch looks to be 30 min after stream start.
Join us tonight at 9pmEST /2am UTC over on my Twitch channel for this year's first trek into the obscure vaults of THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. Unlike our previous forays into this realm, this film is not in the public domain because of its age nor is its obscurity due to it being a silent classic. This film is in the public domain because its so, bone crushingly, soul-rendingly awful that no copyright holder wants to get its cooties on them. DO YOU DARE ENDURE THE GIANT GILA MONSTER!?
