Just your standard self-hating white academic.

A Virginia Tech professor declared Monday that “the modern GOP is nothing but white supremacy” in response to a leadership squabble within a College Republicans chapter.
Matthew Gabriele, an Associate Professor of Medieval Studies at Virginia Tech University, posted the tweet Monday morning in response to an article in The Chronicle of Higher Education reporting that the Washington State University College Republicans had repudiated the re-election of its president, James Allsup, who was spotted at the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
After pictures of him at the rally surfaced, Allsup faced pressure to resign from prominent Republicans, and while he ultimately retained enough support within his own group to win re-election, his impending graduation disqualifies him from serving in that role next year.
When other users criticized Gabriele’s assertion, the professor fired back in a separate tweet, saying that “a lot of white dudes have found this tweet and they are proving, once again, that the right is SO BAD at trolling other white dudes.”
