A student at George Washington University, Blake Flayton, became well known when he wrote a New York Times op-ed that decried the typical anti-semitism of today’s progressive movement. “[Progressives] have made it abundantly clear to me and other Jews that any form of Zionism — even my own liberal variant — is a political nonstarter. [To progressives] Zionism itself is, to parrot the Soviet propaganda of several decades ago, racist. Anybody who so dares to utter the words “right to exist” is undeniably a proponent of racism.”
