You Are Paying the Radicalization Machine; The anarchy on our campuses is sustained by your hard-earned tax dollars

 The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  

"Through no fault of your own, you are funding the subversion and destruction of the country you love, the country you will pass on to your children. The politicians you vote for and donate to have watched it happen, and they have happily signed over more of your tax dollars whenever they’re given the chance." . . .

Ian Macfarlane

"The anti-Israel protests on America’s elite university campuses have reached a fever pitch: On name-brand campuses across the country, students have occupied offices, set up encampments, and held daily demonstrations to protest the war in Gaza. Today, nearly 50 campus activists were arrested at Yale. Last week, more than 100 anti-Israel protesters were arrested at Columbia — and university administrators subsequently announced that they would be moving to online classes due to the chaos. Those moves only inflamed tensions further, unleashing “a wave of activism across a growing number of college campuses,” the New York Times reported on Monday. “In the days after the tents at Columbia came down, students at Yale, the University of Michigan and M.I.T. erected their own encampments in support of those arrested. By early Monday, New York University had become the latest protest site.”

"If onlookers are disturbed, they shouldn’t necessarily be surprised. None of the radicalism emanating from the nation’s most influential universities is new, nor is it confined to the issue of Israel-Palestine. That it has invited the level of outrage and scrutiny it has now — including from conservative megadonors who happily funneled cash to these elite radicalization machines for years — is preferable to the alternative; late is always better than never. But this most recent spate of upheavals did not materialize out of the blue. It is only the most recent culmination of an ideological corruption that has been decades in the making, often with the implicit assent of Republican politicians — and the active support of Republican university donors. As I wrote for the American Conservative back in late October: 

Hamas’s savage attacks are outrageous, as are the efforts to excuse or justify them. But so is the mass murder of unborn children in the womb. So is our open border. So is the radicalization of our universities, the carnage and violence on our city streets, and the systematic destruction of our history and heritage. That our conservative leaders have suddenly found their appetite for outrage is laudable, but it’s impossible to avoid wondering where it has been for the past decade…
