Ramón Grosfoguel, a professor born in Puerto Rico and holding U.S. citizenship, has become one of the most unrestrained academic voices promoting radical anti-Zionist ideology, antisemitic rhetoric, and support for terrorist-aligned narratives. Far from offering scholarly critique, Grosfoguel has weaponized his academic platform to amplify dehumanizing comparisons, celebrate anti-Israel movements, and openly vilify Jews under the guise of “anti-colonial” struggle.
Ramón Grosfoguel‘s Academic Credentials, Radical Agenda
Though a professor in ethnic studies, Grosfoguel’s public rhetoric is indistinguishable from extremist agitprop. Across protests, public lectures, interviews, and social media, he has consistently:
-
Equated Jewish self-determination with genocide and Nazism.
-
Portrayed terrorist violence as resistance and justified attacks on civilians.
-
Claimed Israel is a Western imperial outpost, bent on ethnic cleansing and colonial domination.
His commentary and activism cross the line from political criticism into obsessive, conspiratorial hate targeting Jewish identity, history, and survival.
PUBLIC INCITEMENT AND EXTREMIST ADVOCACY
Pro-Hamas and Antisemitic Statements in Public Protests
-
January 2025, Grosfoguel joined a protest in Cape Town, South Africa, decrying the so-called “Israeli genocide” and urging global solidarity with Palestinian “resistance.”
-
In his speeches, he compared Israel to Nazi Germany, calling Benjamin Netanyahu a “Jewish genocidal German Nazi” who should be arrested.
-
Regularly refers to Zionism as “criminal” and “an expansionist settler project” that has nothing to do with Judaism, but is instead a Western Christian imperialist tool.
Anti-Jewish Rhetoric in Global Forums
-
July 2024, while speaking in Venezuela at the World Social Alternative conference, Grosfoguel described Gaza as a “laboratory” where genocidal technologies are being tested using AI and precision weaponry.
-
Wore a keffiyeh, aligning himself visually and ideologically with radical pro-terror movements.
-
Blamed Western support for Israel on the U.S. and Europe’s desire to control Middle Eastern oil and gas through a militarized proxy.
ONLINE PROPAGANDA MACHINE
YouTube Channel and Articles
Grosfoguel’s digital footprint is flooded with content glorifying anti-Israel extremism and pushing antisemitic conspiracies. His lectures and written articles promote:
-
The idea that Gaza is “the Warsaw Ghetto of the 21st Century,” likening Israel’s policies to Nazi extermination campaigns.
-
The claim that Zionism is genocide, and that the establishment of Israel was orchestrated ethnic cleansing.
-
The framing of Palestinian terrorism as “decolonization,” while accusing Jews of using the Holocaust to silence legitimate criticism.
Social Media Hatred
-
His X (formerly Twitter) account routinely praises “Palestinian resistance” and circulates materials from groups sympathetic to Hamas.
-
Attacks Jewish identity by asserting that Zionism has hijacked Judaism, and that Jews who defend Israel are part of a “colonial elite.”
A Danger to Students and Truth
Ramón Grosfoguel’s rhetoric doesn’t merely challenge policy—it erases Jewish history, denies Jewish self-determination, and normalizes terrorist ideology under the banner of “academic freedom.” His dangerous parallels between Israel and Nazi Germany are textbook examples of contemporary antisemitism, according to international definitions.
-
He provides intellectual cover for violence, refusing to mention Hamas or condemn terror attacks.
-
He uses his identity and academic position to push a radical anti-Western worldview, where Jews are recast as colonizers and terrorists are celebrated as heroes.
-
He contributes to an environment of fear and hostility for Jewish students, while radicalizing the academic sphere with hate-driven propaganda.
Ramón Grosfoguel is not a scholar—he is a committed ideological operator masquerading as one. His presence on any campus represents a direct threat to civil discourse, student safety, and truth itself.
