Aren't you kinda doing the same thing by calling these particular protesters leftists? One could argue that anti-semitic positions are not compatible with left political values.

I don't know what left political values are. I look at people like these protesters and their "values" seem incoherent to me. I'm using leftist because these people politically support the left wing parties. Describing them as liberals in the classical sense wouldn't be correct, they certainly don't have liberal values. Is there a more accurate word to describe this group?
well, that's exactly my point. you use the term leftism without "any connection to the actual meaning of the word".
I'm using leftist to refer to people who support the left wing political parties. I think that's the meaning of the word. If there's a more accurate word to describe that group I'd certainly use it.
I'm specifically using leftist instead of liberal because their actions and what appears to be their values have no connection to the meaning of the word "liberal".
idk where you're from, but I'm pretty sure discrimination based on ethnicity or religious beliefs is something more related to the political right.
One would certainly think so, but these college protesters definitely aren't on the political right, they've been about as solidly supportive of the political left as possible.
I see, such methods would definitely be fucked up. but i found the quoted article and it gives quite a different picture if you read past the clickbaity headline:
