He’s pulling support from the school that’s cracking down so heavily and violently on the protests? What’s he for I’m having trouble understanding the logic here.
Oh, the massive loan fraud situation, corporate poatching of talent and patents, the fact that most collages are run by a bunch of greedy, nepotistic fucks, whose concern for acedemia begins and ends with football teams.
The slow moving enshitification has been going on for years, and soon people who want to be taken seriously in the market place will either avoid US collages altogether or go to foreign collages.
Uni’s will be fine, but collages? Without management reform, we’ll be seeing a downward curve regarding their legitimacy - from an academic point of view, of course.
Kraft echoed the sentiment in a statement issued through an organization he founded called the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism. “I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country,” he wrote. “I am no longer confident that Columbia can protect its students and staff and I am not comfortable supporting the university until corrective action is taken.”
There’s something inherently creepy about a guy who isn’t Jewish starting up a foundation called “Combat Antisemitism” and then lean really, really hard on the “Combat” part without seeming to give much of a shit about the Antisemitism part.
I get strong “Can’t wait for Israel to be obliterated by war and bring on the Second Coming!” vibes from this.
