On Friday’s HBO show “Real Time,” Scott Galloway, a marketing professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business, said college students should be given a “fairly wide range” but that “history repeats itself.” He also spoke about anti-Semitism against universities. The campus is reminiscent of Germany in the 1930s.
Former CNN host Don Lemon said there’s been a bit of a boom in protests, and host Bill Maher questioned the strange timing of the demonstrations around final exams.
Galloway said: “It’s easy to make fun of these kids, but history repeats itself, and that’s how it starts. Germany in the ’30s, a progressive community, a thriving gay community, great academic institutions. It all started with brown… I mean, it was popular to mock students at the University of Vienna by wearing their shirts. …And, frankly, I’m really disappointed that more Jews aren’t speaking out.”
At the beginning of this segment, Galloway said: The whole point of being 19 years old is to do stupid things, learn, and move on. I’m glad the cameras didn’t follow me when I was 19. ”
