As long as they all know the difference
I would also accept Israel-Palestinian children war, since the majority of the dead are children.
You mean the genocide protesters?
Protest are not easy or safe. They are dangerous and could cost you everything. Stand with the protesters and Palestine ✊🏽 🇵🇸
Hold!
I can't wait for the surprise Pikachu on their faces when the university takes action. If they think actions should have consequences for others, why shouldn't it apply to them as well?
There will be no surprised Pikachu faces because anyone out there protesting values innocent human lives more than a suspension, expulsion, or unjust criminal charges unto them.
I think you might not get protesting.
If that’s really true, why weren’t they protesting when the saudis were bombing the hell out of Yemen?
I mean, does it really make a difference? I agree that more things like this should be protested. But even if you think they're hypocrites that doesn't mean they're wrong now. Put it this way: if they had protested the Saudis, would this protest be totally cool with you?
And obviously the answer is because their university and government are backing and funding this one. If you can't see the difference in relevance to the average American you have a serious problem.

That’s a good point, we should be ending our relationship with both Israel and the Saudis! Both countries are constantly violating established human rights, according to international law.

You pointed at another bad thing and somehow that means that we shouldn’t care about this bad thing?
So disingenuous as you know that you’d be against people protesting that too.
So let’s say the protest works. There’s a cease fire. Good job everyone. So smart and ethically superior.
Now that you’ve all made the world a better place, what is going to happen to the innocent Israeli hostages that Hamas has?
What will happen if Hamas continue to fire rockets into Israel? Like they always have?
If you can’t answer these questions it’s not really because you can’t, it’s because you won’t. It’s a bad faith discussion.
I’m assuming you’re ok with Hamas stealing and diverting the international aid that was intended for improving the lives of Palestinians and diverting it themselves and buying rockets and launching more October 7th style attacks in the future.
I’m sure you’ve all thought this through like the smart people you are.

Did Hamas value innocent human lives on October 7th?
See, I still don't see you getting the whole protesting thing, here.
Let's not try and pigeon-hole our way out of making ourselves look dumb by making ourselves look dumber, now...

Palestine is not Hamas. Can you imagine what it would be like for those who live in the US if everyone were held guilty of crimes the US has committed against the world?

Did the average civilian just living their life have anything to do with it?

Hamas not valuing human life = bad, evil people
Israel not valuing human life = totally reasonable and good behaviour
You wouldn't recognise consistency if it was banging out a 4/4 beat on your nutsack
You clearly don't
You presume that everyone acts selfishly and ignorantly like you do.
Nah, I expect people are dumb enough to think the first amendment protects them from private institutions and consequences. I've seen enough people over the years that have proven me right and were then surprised by the consequences of their own actions.
It takes federal funds so it does apply, it's already been ruled on in like 1968. They aren't traditional public forums, they're limited ones but civil disobedience is literally the cornerstone of American peaceful protest.
Are you stupid? You think they haven't faced action yet? Lol read a book
Their camp is still there on campus past the deadline. They clearly haven't fully faced the consequences of it yet.
It was literally cleared out and rebuilt...
I'm talking about the deadline today. The university already started handing out suspensions for those still there, but haven't cleared them out yet.
Braver than the troops o7
Hope they enjoy going to community college next year!
Fuck off
It’s unclear why you felt the need to act needlessly cruel. It’s even less clear what you get out of it.
Almost certainly someone who chose not to go to college or didn't get in and see people who spend the money and fail as vindication for themselves.
Same reason people are against loan forgiveness.

University Professor with now "prior" students affected by today's raid. The University is neither partisan to foreign events nor a place to take a building hostage for such. It just boggles my mind how anyone, including my prior students could both assume nothing would happen to them and to fall victim to feed such hatred. Hatred is not the answer, it's a proven fact.
Hatred? You think it’s hatred to request that a nation stops killing Palestinian children?
Taking a building hostage, did you think the same when they protested Vietnam?
Seems like your students will be in a better place now considering they won't have to hear more of this drivel.
Funny as a professor that your mind is boggled that a university could be a place for protest.
boggles my mind
Propaganda on social media. Democratic countries are way behind on this one.
