Censoring and Silencing University Staff and Students who criticise the State of Israel

originally posted by: Vermilion

Here’s just a snapshot of the mind rot in universities currently.
This is a q and a between students at Oxford and Ben Shapiro from 3 weeks ago.
All very current content regarding Israel hamas war.
As you’ll see the students are like a one legged person in a buttkicking contest.
If you want to skip the brief opening and get right to the q and a skip to about the 19 minute mark.

Ben Shapiro clearly and unequivocally supports Israel and he doesn't seem to handle the arguments well given he isn't well informed on the subjects he is trying to discuss. He can't be balanced and fair in this particular conversation. But at least these conversations and debates should not be censored or banned in Universities or any criticisms against States or Individuals.

Recently the South African Government has asked Netanyahou and his Government to be arrested and brought before the ICC.

I am sure that in Colleges and Universities anyone should be able to discuss and criticise the State of Israel. They have committed war and crimes against humanity. It's not only Hamas o this unpleasant and barbaric game.

Academic freedom is above anything else. If one State and its representatives don't like it the West cannot change their rules and regulations to satisfy the unrealistic demands of one side.

Speaking about bans and a comment you made in another thread but it's more appropriate to answer here as I have answered to another poster.

It's a badge of honour if you are banned on social media in our days. It means you're doing something very right and you don't peddle the official narratives. Those who are censored or silenced on social media are those who are saying the truth and are on the right side of history.
