hayward Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 There's already been a protest back in '20-'21. Freshman and sophmores spent the whole year on line. Only a few weeks left now, so they shall suck it up buttercup! By fall things should be calmed back down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Danger Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Netanyahu said it best this week when he called the happenings on US college campus as a reflection of 1930s Germany. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a total load of shit. There is absolutely no comparison. While I disagree with the tent cities and shut down of in class learning, there is a line of squashing freedom of speech which is being crossed. Anyone with a brain can see that. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean that no one gets offended. The republicans are using the same metric at controlling uncomfortable speech as the liberals did with antivax muzzling.

When the crowd starts to threaten Jewish students is where the line is. But Benny has a point the first step is to normalize the bigotry and what better instrument than higher leaning. If anything the rise of antisemitism in this country proves the necessity of a Jewish state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
