Why is everyone afraid of college students protesting? I mean this police state response goes back to before Kent State and Tianemen square no doubt.
Well if it’s frightening- keep it up! There must be some form of agency there
They aren't.
They are afraid of being labeled anti-semitic. That is what is driving this. Allowing the protests to exist gets the uni/president labeled anti-semitic, and that is unacceptable for the universities. The universities are then asking the police to break them up by force, because violent against students is more acceptable than being labeled anti-Semitic.
If student unions can organize with worker unions for protests/strikes that seems like a possible way we'll get enough momentum going to think about a general strike for some long overdue reforms
If student unions can organize with worker unions
Christ, can you even imagine what the police would do in the middle of a strike wave?
Battle of Blair Mountain eat your fucking heart out.
Protests are important, but I also encourage and hope that young people who care about the world become lawyers and politicians
do you know lawyers and politicians? I've known a lot in my professional career.
They do not care about anyone but themselves.
Probably should be protesting the terrorist organization of Hamas and not supporting them...
They are a cancer that needs to be removed in order for everyone to live in peace.
