Original Note:
This post claims without evidence that the walkout was because Seinfeld is Jewish, ignoring the fact that Seinfeld's wife funded a pro-Israel counterprotest at UCLA. Counterprotestors violently attacked the encampment, endangering participants (including Jews). https://www.newsweek.com/jerry-seinfeld-wife-donates-pro-israel-ucla-rally-1895409 https://dailybruin.com/2024/05/07/i-thought-i-was-going-to-die-ucla-encampment-protesters-recall-april-30-attack https://dailybruin.com/2024/05/03/gallery-counter-protesters-attack-police-clear-pro-palestine-encampment-at-ucla
