Civil Rights Administrator at Kansas State U Allegedly Belongs to Anti-Israel ‘Marxist’ Group

Civil Rights Administrator at Kansas State U Allegedly Belongs to Anti-Israel ‘Marxist’ Group

“The organization, formed in 2022, has embraced extremist views on Israel over the Jewish state’s response to the Oct. 7 attacks from Hamas.”

An administrator at Kansas State University named Derron Borders, who is charged with investigating civil rights complaints, is part of a self-described Marxist group that is explicitly anti-Israel.

Borders previously worked for Cornell University, where he was criticized for being supportive of the October 7th attacks as a ‘resistance.’

Chuck Ross of the Washington Free Beacon has done a deep dive on Borders and his group:

Kansas State University ‘Civil Rights’ Administrator Is Part of Secret Marxist Group That Says It Has ‘No Sympathy’ for Dead Jews

An investigator in Kansas State University’s civil rights office, which claims to foster an “environment free from discrimination, harassment, and retaliation,” is part of a secretive Marxist book club that calls for the “total destruction” of Israel, hails the terrorist group Hamas, and defends the murders of Israeli civilians.

Derron Borders, who joined the university’s civil rights and Title IX office in May 2024, is a member of the Kansas Socialist Book Club, an anti-colonial Marxist group based in Manhattan, Kansas, the Washington Free Beacon has found.

The organization, formed in 2022, has embraced extremist views on Israel over the Jewish state’s response to the Oct. 7 attacks from Hamas. In a manifesto last year, the Kansas Socialist Book Club called for the “complete and total destruction” of Israel and expressed “unwavering support” for Hamas.

“We remain steadfast in our support of Palestinian liberation, whatever that ends up looking like,” the organization’s manifesto says. The group also defends the slaughter of Israeli civilians, referred to in the manifesto as the “Zionist middle class.”

In the audio clip below, Borders can be heard expressing support for Elias Rodriguez, the man who shot two innocent people outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC. He compares him to accused killer Luigi Mangione, whom he also appears to support.

The Free Beacon transcribed the clip:

“Most of the time Christian Zionists are not as belligerent as Israeli Zionists, and so it’s really hard to get at a Zionist and them not also be Jewish,” he said. Borders also lamented that the shooting did not have a “class consciousness” component to it and would likely not serve as a useful critique of the “imperialist, capitalist regime.”

“It feels like a temporary blip, and I don’t think much movement’s going to come from this,” Borders said. “The amount of talking about class consciousness from this is not going to be as comparable as it is … to [assassin of UnitedHealth CEO Brian Thompson] Luigi Mangione.”

Do these sound like the words of someone who should be charged with protecting civil rights at a major university?

whatever punishment he could be given,,other than being himself

is not enough

A college Culture Marxist administrator is a Marxist, a day ending a “Y” I bet.

Ship his fat ass off to Gaza. He’ll feed half the gazans for at least a month.

Another white Dhimmi-crat piece of excrement, looking to express his “solidarity” with the Dhimmi-crats/Islamofascists, and, demonstrate his anti-Israel/pro-Arab “Palestinian” bona fides.

Are universities looking for civil rights administrators usually this receptive to resumés from pitmasters?

Their team just lost their fist football game of the season in antisemitic Ireland. Fitting.

Drive the Reds out of our universities.

He heads up something called “dialectical praxis”. That alone tells me he’s a whack job.

    I’m pretty sure that’s the stuff I use to lube my truck’s trailer cable connector.

      No no no. That’s “dielectrical praxis”. “Dialectical praxis” is a belief system where if you think of something and believe it to be true, it becomes true for the world. Easy mistake to make.

        There was some communist theory regarding insulation characteristics taught at Moscow University. It was a required course for electrical engineers.

        Dielectrical Materialism.

This guy wears Marxist BLM and gay pride Palestine flag-inspired lapel pins for an official, “This is Me!” photo. Does anyone really expect fair and impartial investigations and decisions from this guy?

He is absolutely entitled to have and express his opinions, but why he was hired to a position of authority over other students, with his readily accessible history and background, is a mystery. There are definitely reasons to question not only his judgment, but his impartiality as well.

I understand that he is enrolled in the Adult Learning and Leadership PhD program at K-State, but that doesn’t entitle him to employment at state expense.

I could say it’s outrageous that a I I would hire this guy. Unfortunately it’s the norm. He is not a symptom, he’s a feature of the higher education system that is indoctrinating students. We may need to burn the college/university systems to the ground and start over.

It doesn’t matter what book club he joins, he’s still not getting laid by belonging.
