Woke left’s getting punished under its own rules: Don’t stop now!

The woke left is f🧸inally getting a taste of its own medicine. Let’s he🧸ar it for sanity. 

This week saw three unhinged antisemites removed from their cushy gigs over ugly remarks made about Israel

One was a Beverly Hills radiologist, Andrew Thierry, who posted on X that “Zionists” are “genicidal, demonic, greedy, pedophilic r—–s.” (Try spellcheck next time, Doc.)

“Zionists” is the preferred lefty code word for Jews.

Another was a Citigroup banker, Nozima Husainova, who shared a post on Instagram spreading the lie that Israel destroyed the al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza, and added a note that read: “No wonder wh♍y Hitﷺler wanted to get rid of all of them.” She even included a smiley emoji.

Then there’s a Department of Homeland Security employee, Nejwa Ali, who worked on asylum issues for the agency. She celebrated and justified the Hamas 𝕴atrocities on Instagram with art and emojis.

All three were ousted this week. (Ali, insanely, is a former PLO staffer; she cꦇlearly should never have been hired in the first pl𓄧ace.) 

All three have been treated as their political comraꦰdes customarily treat others: with online vitriol leading to severe economic puni🐲shments.

The same thing happened when an NYU Law student blamed Israel for the Hamas atrocities: Ryna Workman lost a job offer from Winston & Strawn. The firm Davis Pജolk has reported three more such moves over similar statements. 

And hedge funders Bill Ackman and Ken Griffin have decla🌠red Harvard’s pub🍨licly jubilant antisemites unhirable.

They may cry that 𒊎this is unfair, but this is the cancel-culture world💞 they created.

Remember Emmanuel Cafferty, the Latino power company worker whom BLM crazies got fired over💃 an imaginary racist gesture he made? (The man was, in fact, cracking his knuckles.) 

Or Joshua Katz, the professor of clasജsics at Princeton booted fr🙈om his tenured job for merely daring to question the DEI poli🔯cies some colleagues demanded? 

The shoe’s on the other foot now, as some of America seems to be waking൩ up from its fever dreams. 

Here’s hoping more people get hip to the fact that these attitudes — Jew-hatred, “decolonization” and all the rest — are nothing new. And not acceptable.

They’re the fruits of the long leftist march through our institutions

And while it’s good that someꦚ of the vilest are now withering in daylight, many more people with the same beliefs still hold places of real power across government, media and the academy.

Until they’re all gone, nothing will change.
