Responses:

It was the pro-Israeli thugs and then the police who did this. Wanna try again? You know, for the sake of not lying. -- nm - con_carne May 2, 12:55
These childlike criticisms of the protests are somehow worse than the Occupy Wall Street ones. - David May 2, 12:42 29
- Exactly. And you KNOW the right-wing and maga ecosystem are upset that this 'story' is dying out - Jovian May 2, 12:57 1
  - and CNN too. I mean the amount of time and energy *they've* spent on this story as well is staggering. -- nm - Jovian May 2, 12:59
- I can't speak for everyone, but me personally -- (edited) - Strongbad May 2, 12:44 26
  - This is just to say -- (link) - Reagen May 2, 12:55
  - but the protest was peaceful at UCLA. Then a mob attacked them in the middle of last night while the cops stood by. Then this morning the cops - decline May 2, 12:52 [Image] 24
    - And what happened at Columbia? - Strongbad May 2, 12:55 17
      - The 'administration' wasn't trying to de-escalate anything. Shafik was suspending and kicking kids out of school and had the cops come in and arrest -- (edited) - decline May 2, 13:08 6
        
        Is this an example of a peaceful protest? -- (link) - Strongbad May 2, 14:52
        
        Is this an example of a peaceful protest? -- (pic) - Strongbad May 2, 14:25 [Attachment] 1
        
        It's a picture of people holding up signs. So, yes? - David May 2, 14:29
        
        Is this an example of a peaceful protest that should be allowed to happen? -- (link) - Strongbad May 2, 13:55
        
        And I do agree partially with what you're saying - Strongbad May 2, 13:38
        
        Actually they were negotiating for... over a week? -- nm - Strongbad May 2, 13:22
      - Can't let you whatabout your way out of this. You are a liar, as I pointed out just now. Go find something else to lie about please. -- nm - con_carne May 2, 13:07 3
        
        Yes, it's obviously the Jews fault for... existing? I guess? -- nm - Strongbad May 2, 13:09
        
        Come on, ST. Let's please remain courteous to one another. -- nm - David May 2, 13:08 1
        
        this. -- nm - Beaker 🍻 May 2, 13:10
      - Litter and sneaking into a public building don't strike me as the essential conversation topics here. - David May 2, 13:04 5
        
        I have a very hard time calling anyone advocating for Global Intifada as a "peaceful protest" -- nm - Strongbad May 2, 13:22 3
        
        That's your choice, but these people are asking for the stoppage of murder of Palestinian children. Why aren't we *all* asking for that? - David May 2, 13:26 2
        
        One side is advocating for extermination of the other. - Strongbad May 2, 13:30 1
        
        Our old friend duke fleed had been sending me footage of this for five years now. Bibi is the monster here. And that's on brand for him. - David May 2, 13:33
        
        Ok. -- nm - Strongbad May 2, 13:07
    - Right. It's victim-blaming and intentionally missing the point of what's happening. -- nm - David May 2, 12:53 5
      - there’s enough blame to go around. too many demonstrators are either hopelessly naive or actually pro-Hamas in their “peaceful” rhetoric - hollywood big shot May 2, 12:57 4
        
        Yes, same as with Occupy Wall Street. Kids get into this stuff without clear ideas about achievable goals. -- nm - David May 2, 13:02 3

        This sounds like "Ahh! The radical Muslims are coming to get us!" -- nm - Inigo May 2, 13:45
        
        That doesn't pass the laugh test for me. Reagen, Mr. Logic, do you agree or disagree? -- nm - David May 2, 13:43
Dirty hippies. -- nm - LFG May 2, 12:39
I mean.... what did they expect it to look like after? -- nm - Jovian May 2, 12:38
