Academia didn’t learn from Oct. 7. It doubled down Story
by Samuel J. Abrams, Washington Examiner
Academia didn’t learn from Oct. 7. It doubled down
One might have thought the campus chaos that followed Oct. 7, 2023, would force a moment of academic sobriety.
After the massacre in Israel, the country watched elite universities descend into moral confusion — students chanting slogans they barely understood, administrators hiding behind procedural evasions, and faculty members serving not as guides but as accelerants. The congressional hearings that followed did
Nor is sociology unique. Similar language now saturates much of the modern university. Across disciplines, professional associations increasingly define their purpose in terms of political ends — equity, disruption, justice, social progress — rather than the pursuit of truth. The American Educational Research Association, for instance, themed its 2024 annual meeting around “dismantling racial injustice” — not just studying it, but actively attempting to dismantle it. Scholarly guilds are recasting themselves not as communities of analysis but as engines of social change.
The result is a profound professional deformation: the conversion of academic departments into ideological projects. Barnard College’s Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies department, for instance, proudly declares that it “is dedicated to linking inquiry and action, theory and practice.”
Fortunately, mainstream observers have begun to acknowledge what was long treated as impolite to say: Faculty activism has become a gateway to campus radicalism. And even Harvard President Alan Garber admitted that the university “went wrong” by allowing professors to inject their personal views into the classroom, arguing that faculty activism has chilled free speech and debate. Professors are no longer simply interpreters of social life. Too often, they are organizers, legitimators, and moral enforcers — providing students with not only ideas, but marching orders.
The consequences are profound.
When a discipline defines its mission as “disruption,” it overtly and willfully abandons the central norms of scholarship. Research becomes, in the spirit of Max Weber, socially instrumental and outcome-driven. Questions are permitted or discouraged based on political utility. Peer review becomes ideological sorting. Students are trained not to analyze complexity but to rehearse commitments.

"Operation Metro Surge" and its possible prophetic ramifications
Operation Metro Surge is a large-scale immigration enforcement operation (to remove individuals with criminal histories) launched by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in December 2025, primarily targeting the Minneapolis–Saint Paul area in Minnesota. As of the day of this post (February 5, 2026), the White House reported over 4,000 arrests since the operation began.

Viral videos caught Minneapolis protesters looting and damaging ICE and FBI vehicles (@nicksortor, @humanevents/X)
MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA: Tensions in Minneapolis have reached a boiling point as new videos circulating online show Minneapolis protesters smashing US Immigration and Customs Enforcement and FBI vehicles in the wake of a spate of shootings involving ICE agents.
The latest flashpoint comes just days after an ICE officer fatally shot 37‑year‑old Renee Nicole Good, sparking widespread outrage, and a subsequent Wednesday night (January 14) arrest operation in north Minneapolis ended with federal agents opening fire after officials say a suspect and others attacked an officer with a shovel.

Minneapolis protesters damage ICE and FBI vehicles
Video clips shared online show Minneapolis protesters looting and damaging abandoned ICE and FBI vehicles during night protests.
In one clip, people rummage through broken windows, scattering documents, gear, and laptops across snowy streets. Another video shows protesters slashing tires and breaking windows.
In a separate clip, people surround and loot an ICE vehicle, and readable ICE operational details, including agent names, contacts, and protest‑response information, were visible and spoken aloud. A viral image also shows a graffiti‑covered, damaged ICE vehicle on a snowy street with onlookers nearby.
Minneapolis officials called for calm after a federal immigration officer shot a man. The city said on X that the man was hospitalized with injuries that do not appear to be life-threatening.
“We understand there is anger,” the city tweeted. “We ask the public to remain calm.”

What is to prevent the world from becoming a second Sodom?
At the same time anarchy is seeking to sweep away all law, not only divine, but human. The centralizing of wealth and power; the vast combinations for the enriching of the few at the expense of the many; the combinations of the poorer classes for the defense of their interests and claims; the spirit of unrest, of riot and bloodshed; the world-wide dissemination of the same teachings that led to the French Revolution—all are tending to involve the whole world in a struggle similar to that which convulsed France.
Such are the influences to be met by the youth of today. To stand amidst such upheavals they are now to lay the foundations of character.
