Over the weekend, I reported on what Hims and Hers Health Inc. CEO Andrew Dudum said about the campus protesters. He said that he and other CEOs would be "eager" to hire them. 

Moral courage > College degree

If you’re currently protesting against the genocide of the Palestinian people & for your university’s divestment from Israel, keep going. It’s working.There are plenty of companies & CEOs eager to hire you, regardless of university discipline.

He even included a link to apply for a job with his company. 

But then his stock plummeted 8 percent and he reportedly lost $210 million. He even got called out by some other CEOs. It sounded like he could be facing a "Bud Light" effect scenario. He must have realized he was in trouble.

So, fast forward four days to Sunday, and we now have this comment from Dudum in a thread on X trying to dig out from under the backlash.

The last few days have been a disheartening reflection of just how divisive a time we live in. I’d like to clarify a few things because my words have been misconstrued by some.

I, in no way condone nor support acts or threats of violence, antisemitism, or intimidation and there is absolutely no justification for violence on our campuses. Every student deserves to feel safe without fear of harm or being targeted for who they are. I am deeply saddened that my support for peaceful protest has been interpreted by some as encouraging violence, intimidation, or bigotry of any kind.

Dudum cut off comments on his posts. 

Dudum made the original comment despite some of the activists harassing Jewish students, being violent, getting arrested, and chanting for intifada and revolution. He also invited campus protesters to apply for a job, "regardless of university discipline" — so, regardless of what rules they may have broken in the eyes of the university. 

People weren't buying the "clarification."
