I think that anytime that a person has to explicitly state that they don’t condone Nazism, that’s probably a statement about her. That’s not a great place for anyone to be in.
— Penn Law Student Ryan Plesh in the Daily Pennsylvanian with an astute observation about Professor Amy Wax. Wax took to a podium last night to say that she wasn’t a Nazi and to claim that no one has ever countered the substance of her (along with co-author Larry Alexander) claims that white European culture is “superior” — an assertion that is categorically false. She also made the now predictable plea that no one be allowed to use the term “racist” to describe “an idea that “a particular race is superior to another.”
