US professors facing threats, firings and harassment over Charlie Kirk posts

Recent events have highlighted a troubling trend in US academia, where up to 40 professors have faced dismissal or harassment following comments related to Charlie Kirk's assassination. This situation has created a 'climate of fear' on college campuses, as many academics express concerns over their freedom to speak. The actions taken against these professors, often without due process, raise significant questions about academic freedom and the influence of political pressures in educational institutions.
