"An uber-woke university professor ignited a Twitter cluster bomb claiming pro-free speech activists on Canadian campuses should be hounded into oblivion.
Matthew A. Sears — a social media frequent flier who often locks horns with anyone to the right of Chairman Mao — unleashed his latest manifesto Sunday.
The left-leaning University of New Brunswick humanities professor even slammed an Iranian-Canadian man’s criticisms as the “weaponizing of race.”
Sears’ scorched earth attack included white supremacists, bloggers, YouTubers and politicians who inspired them, the Post-Millennialreported.
He tweeted on Sunday: “We should name every white supremacist. Name every writer, blogger, YouTuber, and politician that inspires them. Plaster their faces in public. Fire them from their jobs. Hound them from restaurants. Expose them and those that fuel them for the hateful pathetic wretches they are.”
