Popular political commentator and streamer Hasan Piker is speaking at Cornell, drawing sharp pushback from campus Jewish leadership. In a guest column published in The Cornell Daily Sun, Grinspoon Hillel CEO Rabbi Ari Weiss raised serious concerns regarding Piker’s rhetoric. Weiss cited past controversial statements regarding the Oct. 7 attacks, arguing that such speech diminishes trauma and ostracizes Jewish students on campus. Addressing the student organizations hosting the event, Weiss urged organizers to consider the impact on their peers, emphasizing that campus discourse should not come at the expense of student safety and community respect.
