  • Harvard Harris poll: 51% of college aged adults: Hamas “justified.”

    Sad, 60% said the Hamas attack was genocide, yet 51% still say it was justified... So genocide is justified...

    That is a strange result. Makes you wonder what percentage understood the questions.

      It's not like indoctrination of young leftist college students is an unusual thing.

        How do? If you look at the other question, a majority of the same group understand the genocidal nature of the attack. In essence, you have a majority (and a slight minority of the next age bracket) believing genocide of Jews was justifiable. Given the leftist nature of education, how is it make one wonder? Are you suggesting they are illiterate or otherwise unable to process the questions?

          Did they only poll the students the school has been indoctrinating? That statement released by the Harvard student groups supporting Hamas was pure crap. Now the school's been trying to smooth things over and keep said students from losing their future job prospects, when they should just expel any student that had a hand in endorsing evil.
          "If you believe, take the first step, it leads to Jesus Christ. If you don't believe, take the first step all the same, for you are bidden to take it. No one wants to know about your faith or unbelief, your orders are to perform the act of obedience on the spot. Then you will find yourself in the situation where faith becomes possible and where faith exists in the true sense of the word." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship

            The school conducted the poll, with the respondents in question being of the right age, in the ordinary course, to be university students.

              FWIU, the school was pretty much going to ignore the statement right up until the letters from alumni started pouring in saying they will never donate another penny.

                I don't think justifiable genocide is part of leftist ideology.

                  Aside from the genocide of minority unborn babies they believe is justified, it also seems to be the case in regards to the Israel/Palestine issue, as the poll clearly shows.

                    It's possible that as few as 11% of the respondents answered yes to both questions. (i.e. if everyone who thought it was not genocidal also thought that it was justified)


                    Given the leftist nature of education, how is it make one wonder? Are you suggesting they are illiterate or otherwise unable to process the questions?
                    It's certainly possible that 11% are that illiterate. These aren't all college students we're talking about.

                    And if there are any that actually thought that genocide of the Jews was justifiable, they are as likely to be white supremacists as they are to be leftists.

                      Even though college-aged adults were the most worrisome, I'd say the other age groups give cause for concern as well. Well, maybe not for those of retirement age.

                        You definitely get some odd gems from this poll. For example, 58% of Dems believe the "economy is on the right track," yet 72% Americans believe we're either in a recession now or going to be in one in the next year. Either Dems are smoking something the rest of America isn't, or they're living in some kind of partisan fantasyland.

                          Were you also on the cancel-Bud-Light train? Conservatives seem on a roll. I see Jon Stewart's show was cancelled today for being too left wing.

                            Over here, they say Stewart was dropped because he wanted to be critical of the Chicoms, and Apple was fearful of the wrath of their overlords.

                              Meanwhile, in the real world, the actual reason for the cancellation had to do with "misgivings" that Apple had over his plans to talk about China, who Apple wants to appease given how their "business model is heavily reliant on China since many suppliers in the Asian country are used to make components of bestselling products including the iPhone, iPad, and AirPods."Apple suddenly declared that they wanted the "final say over the show’s content" and Stewart said no, resulting in Apple cancelling his show.

                              As the Hollywood Reporter explains:

                              According to the New York Times, which first reported the news, the cancellation came after creative differences between the iPhone maker and Stewart over potential topics and guests for The Problem. The NYT reported that Stewart informed his staff Thursday that Apple pushed back on topics relating to China and artificial intelligence. Production on season three was already under way, with filming poised to begin shortly.


                              Or as CNN puts in Jon Stewart’s show on Apple is over because of disagreements about China. They go into the issues between Apple and the Chicoms.

                              Interesting that you provided no source for your claim. Too embarrassed by it?
