    Hundreds of students in graduation robes walked out of the Harvard commencement on Thursday chanting “Free, free Palestine” after weeks of protests on campus and a day after the school announced that 13 Harvard students who participated in a protest encampment would not be able to receive diplomas alongside their classmates.

    Some students chanted “Let them walk, let them walk” during Thursday’s commencement, referring to allowing those 13 students to get their diplomas along with fellow graduates.

      You should be able to sue. You spent 4 years and fuck ton of money going to Harvard. If you have the grades and credits they should not be able to hold your diploma.

        Has anyone clarified? The way I’m reading it is that they’ll still get their degree and graduate. They’re just barred from walking the stage and participating in the ceremony.

          Yeah read it somewhere else. Figure because I didn’t think they could bar them from getting their degrees altogether. I still sue because we have right protest and they worked hard to graduate so they should get walk down that aile.

      If you seriously think support of stopping genocide is bigoted, you really need to reevaluate you worldview and probably go outside.

        You support a people who would not only kill Israelis but would also kill any LGBTQ people they could identify. They are bigots and anti-LGBTQ!

          Even if this were true (which it isn’t), the penalty for bigotry isn’t indiscriminately killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians.

              I can tell you care so much about us queer folks as you want to see us all murdered along with thousands of innocent men, women, and children. Hey but at least we’re not getting tHrOwN fRoM rOoFtOps.

                  Even if you’re gay in Palestine, right now, the biggest threat to your existence is Israel. You support a society where children are murdered by a state for existing.

                  If you took all the racists and bigots in the world and put them in one country… It still wouldn’t be justified to wipe them out. I wouldn’t want to go to that country - it would certainly be among the worst places in the world - but I also wouldn’t suggest we invade and start murdering them.

                  You’re wasting your breath. The shills or whatever on here are using this to try and sway the youth not to vote. It’s so blatant it’s comical. “Genocide Joe” 😂

                  Fascists attempting to argue with the position of compassion is something else.

          That does not justify mass murder or collective punishment.

            It also doesn’t justify supporting a people who are anti LGBTQ and anti-Semitic.

          So because I’m saying that a group of people shouldn’t be indiscriminately murdered means that I support a theological genocide of a different group of people? Have you bumped your head?

          Learn the meaning of the term conflation, and then stop doing that.

            They don’t give a fuck about us Jews either. We’re a tool against the evil swarthy Arab hordes they’re afraid of. The very fact that they refuse to agree that not all Jews are Israeli to me when I specifically tell him that I’m Jewish and in no way Israeli says it all.

          Currently it’s Israel who is killing tens of thousands of Palestinians, but you’re more worried about some unlikely hypothetical where the shoe was on the other foot.

      Hi there. I’m Jewish. What bigotry are you talking about? It’s sure not bigotry against Jews unless you think all Jews are Israeli or support Israel. Which would be pretty bigoted of you.

          Ah, so you do think all Jews are Israeli. Again, that is antisemitic.

          I am not an Israeli and I do not support Israel.
