As Twitchy reported, once it appeared Joe Biden had won the election, lists suddenly became very popular. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wanted to know who was compiling data on Trump allies, and the (now defunct?) Trump Accountability Project stepped up and said it was. “We should keep and publish a list of everyone who assists Trump’s frivolous and dangerous attacks on the election,” tweeted Evan McMullin. “Name and shame forever.” No one on the Left wanted to see Trump administration officials rewarded with six-figure gigs as contributors on cable news.
Now we’re learning that a group of students at Harvard is circulating a petition to keep any Trump administration alumni from attending, teaching, or speaking at Harvard.
(1/3) SCOOP via @LJMoynihan: A group of @Harvard students is seeking to ban any Trump administration alum from attending, teaching, or speaking at Harvard, according a Harvard student with direct knowledge.

(2/3) They’re circulating a petition asking classmates to sign on to an effort to hold the Trump administration “accountable” by keeping them off campus.

(3/3) In the event the university does associate with a Trump alum, they demand the school “create and share with students transparent guidelines” as to why that Trump official is allowed on campus. No comment from Harvard.

It’s just a student petition, but it shows that even the 18—21 set can have the same totalitarian aspirations as adults.
This is our best and brightest, folks! These people are going to be flummoxed when an actual dictator comes to power punishing political enemies and these people won’t have seen it coming because they don’t know what it looks like!

These are not our best and brightest.

This will certainly aid in creating unity… good grief.

Aggressively unpleasant teenagers who want adult day care and stifled thought. Who the hell wants to spend time on a campus, anyway?

This is a sign of discrimination and untolerance. The word University comes from "universe" of thinking. I am not American but I am truly sad for what you guys are going through, same happened in Venezuela ?

Universities have been the cause of the US slide toward socialism. This is just another example of being closed minded. Disgusting.

These are the students that make all Harvard kids look bad.

Well then maybe their fascist, bigoted students and faculty can NOT receive public funding. Cancel culture needs to END! Disgusting!

Imagine if corporations did this to Harvard students when looking for jobs.
