this idiot again?
he's not a fast learner, is he..

"George Ciccariello-Maher, who is a tenured professor at Drexel, first gained national media attention when he tweeted, “All I Want for Christmas is White Genocide.” He followed up his Christmas wish with the assertion that the massacre of white people during the Haitian revolution was “a good thing indeed.” "

Yes. Troubling. He should have been dismissed by these statements alone.

I asked for white genocide and tube socks last Christmas and got neither.

Point is, we all got our problems.

Drexel professor resigns amid threats over controversial tweets - CNN

postscript. this professor resigned from his position at Drexel.

It is the height of irony that this white man resigned due to receiving death threats after his tweet advocating white genocide.

I consider George Ciccariello-Maher to be a disease to rational thought, but he has the right to dribble his thoughts just like Richard Spencer or any other terminally brain damaged 'identity' creep in America.

That said, Drexel has every right to fire him and NYU has every right to hire him.
