American academia has already paid a steep price for this campaign of hostile takeover. Not just in donations and the responses of a right-wing administration, but in the sidelining of serious teaching and learning at so many elite institutions overtaken by this ideology.

Eman Abdelhadi: “F*** the University of Chicago... but it’s my best shot at power.” At Socialism 2025, @UChicago professor Eman Abdelhadi called her employer “evil colonial landlord." Use it. Organize it. Seize its structural leverage. “We don’t have power... but I work at one of the biggest employers in Chicago... a place with thousands of people I could potentially organize... This is where I need to build power.” She openly says it’s “brutal” organizing academics. But despite her disdain, Abdelhadi sees the university as a tactical weapon—to build a Palestine-aligned political base from within.
