Getting kinda tired of liberal politics of civility and sentimentality. The “we don’t get along anymore” narrative is tired and, quite frankly, unethical. Niceties do not stop ideology. And they certainly do not stop genocide. Some of these folks really need to read Fanon.

OPINION: Casual reading of the coverage of student activism on campus would create the impression that Yale has turned into a scene of open conflict. Nothing could be further from the truth. Column by two faculty members in today's paper. yaledailynews.com/bl…
