Will Justin Wolfers and Paul Krugman Have to Stop Teaching Keynesian Economics Because John Maynard Keynes Hated Jews and Really Liked Eugenics ?

Can economists Justin Wolfers (privileged white man) and Paul Krugman live down their association with Keynesian ideas? Are Justin and Paul promoting hate in the classroom? Could it be a micro-aggression even bringing up Keynes and his fondness for eugenics in the classroom?

Here's a fascinating claim in a new biography of Keynes by @zachdcarter, discussing his antisemitism. Carter chastises Robert Solow for overstating the antisemitic tones of Keynes's "Economic Possibilities for our Grandchildren." Let's take a closer look though. pic.twitter.com/JLXvlSYnwC
