Harvard University, oh Harvard University, where do we even begin with you? The supposed shining beacon of higher education, the so-called defender of intellectual rigor, has once again shown its true colors. And let me tell you, those colors are looking more like a murky gray than a vibrant crimson.
Key Member of Harvard's Antisemitism Task Force Resigns Because It's Not Really Fighting Antisemitismhttps://t.co/gD7KFuga4Q

So, what’s the scoop? Well, it seems that Harvard thought it would be a great idea to create a task force to combat antisemitism on its campus. Kudos for trying, right? Wrong. The whole thing is starting to unravel faster than a cheap sweater in a washing machine.
Raffaella Sadun, a key member of this so-called task force, just up and bounced. Why, you ask? Oh, just because she realized that Harvard wasn’t actually serious about tackling antisemitism. Shocking, I know. It’s almost like they just wanted to slap together a task force for good PR and call it a day.
But it gets better (or worse, depending on your perspective). Harvard had the brilliant idea to appoint Derek Penslar, a professor who has some interesting thoughts on Jewish history, as co-chair of this task force. Let’s just say his past comments on Israel and Jewish culture don’t exactly scream “I’m here to fight antisemitism.”
This whole fiasco just goes to show that Harvard’s commitment to combating anti-Jewish hate is about as strong as a wet noodle. It’s a shame that one of the most prestigious institutions in the world can’t seem to get its act together when it comes to standing up against bigotry.
In the end, it’s clear that Harvard’s virtue signaling is about as genuine as a fake Rolex sold on a street corner. Maybe instead of patting themselves on the back for creating a meaningless task force, they should actually take real action to address the issues plaguing their campus. But hey, what do I know? I’m just a humble conservative news writer trying to make sense of the madness.
