This article made me fall in love with FAIR all over again! I tip my hat 🎩 to you, Monica for this remarkable article and all the work you and FAIR do! Please ignore the rude and unfair comment from that troll at the very bottom. You have summed up succinctly with the balance and nuance we’ve come to expect from FAIR the issues with extremes on both sides of the aisle America 🇺🇸 has dealt with in the past and deals with today. The woke left and the rising woke right are both extremely dangerous, hateful and threaten freedom of speech. Both love censorship, banning books, policing comedy, language policing, threatens the civil liberties of our citizens, and getting rid of pieces of history they don’t like. I stand with FAIR in their fight against both the woke inquisitors of the left and right and in the protection the rights and liberties of ALL Americans! If I could make a request, I’d leave to see a post by you Monica and FAIR about the Israel-Palestine Conflict. Now need to stand against the emerging antisemitism in this country and stand for the safety of Jewish and Zionist students and faculty on college campuses as well as protection of the free speech of Jewish and Zionist speakers. But will equal vigor we must stand for free speech for Pro-Palestine students and faculty and oppose the rising Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism in this country. We must also take a stand against anti-BDS laws and the ban on the documentary No Other Land. I’ve heard criticism from some quarters that FAIR is a pro-Zionist organization and that Palestinians are ignored by FAIR. I’d like to help correct that false perception if I can. I think such an article is just what we need right now!
