Walter Block is canceled for supporting Israel
May 20, 2024
Cancel culture reaches the libertarian movement.
The victim: Prof. Walter Block, a Jewish professor of economics and a foundational member of the libertarian movement. A scholar who wrote 700 refereed articles and 3 dozen books and was a colleague of Murray Rothbard himself.
The crime: supporting Israel.
The punishment: demotion from a senior fellowship at the Mises Institute, a libertarian think tank, by a nasty email.
