Scott Galloway: It Seems We Have a Double Standard on Hate Speech As Long As It Is Against Jews

‘Somehow, October 7th gave people cover to come out from under their rocks and just chant out loud the worst things you can say about Jews’

EXCERPT:

GALLOWAY: "Yeah, if we're talking about those off camera, on October 6th, if someone had asked me the state of anti-Semitism in the United States, I would have said it doesn’t exist, that I don’t see it. This was a level of hate on an iceberg that was 99.9% below the water line, but we didn’t know the volume. And I do think there is a double standard. I walked by NYU last night, what I saw was peaceful protest last night, but I can tell you, if I went to the NYU Square with a white hood on and said, 'Lynch the blacks and burn the gays,' my ID would be shut off that night and I’d never work in academia again. There'd be no need for the words context or nuance. I wouldn’t be protected by terms like First Amendment or free speech. I would be out of the world of academia. It seems like they have a double standard when it comes to hate speech, as long as it's against Jews."
