They said "words are violence" and demanded "safe spaces" against "microaggressions". They decided to police speech and ostracize, fire and drive off people who supported free speech and healthy debate. After doing that, they now proclaim that it's ok for students to threaten their fellow students for being Jewish and that chanting "gas the Jews" is ok because Jews don't rate on their oppression index or whatever nonsense they're spewing at the moment.
The reality is that had they fought zealously for the rights of anyone to express their opinions cogently, such as "there are only two sexes and your 'gender' nonsense is just that", or "reverse discrimination is still discrimination", then they wouldn't be in this position. Had they actually defended viewpoint freedom, they could stare down Congress and said, "We have always fought for freedom of opinion and we aren't going to keep these students from protesting in support of Hamas as long as they don't actively promote imminent violence or harass, intimidate or threaten other students. That's our red line and we'll stick to it. The rest of it, as hateful as you may find it, is protected on a college campus because we're committed to freedom of expression."
They can't say that, though, because their positions are unprincipled, immoral, self-serving and based on a shifting, nebulous word salad of vaguely understood notions of oppression.
They deserve everything they get now.
ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
