Exactly like Covid; just don't comply.
99% of their "power" is getting people to imagine their own punishment. For him to actually do anything would burn up whatever good will he has with his colleagues which, for a Jew working at a lefty college, probably isn't much.
If he does start shit, just accuse him, loudly, of being a Zionist.
Right, but the difference with Covid is that it was tyranny that was imposed upon the entire public sphere. You had no choice but to stand your ground against it. University is a place you *choose* to be.
I'm absolutely on board with the *spirit* of the sentiment here, but it's about picking your battles. You won't really accomplish anything by being the lone White nationalist in an academic institution that you are financially tethered to as a student. If you're there to get the piece of paper and get out, you should endeavor to make that as frictionless as possible rather than playing petty power games that invite the ire of your professors.
Even if they can't *directly* punish you for it, they'll absolutely make your life harder, as OP correctly expressed apprehension over.
