The Right Wing is really good at working the refs, and the Left needs to catch a Clue: they’re going to get called radical socialist Marxist communist anarchists no matter what they do, so they should get off the knees, stop being such appeasers and fight.
Own the label
Democrats are not the left.
I didn’t see a mention of democrats.
The left isn’t afraid of being called “radical socialist Marxist communist anarchists” so I assumed they were talking about democrats who are.
Democrats are not the ones out there protesting for Palestine.
Right, the protesters aren’t being “appeasers”, they’re fighting. It’s the democrats who are being appeasers and afraid of being called “radical socialist Marxist communist anarchists” so my conclusion is that they were talking about democrats.
Ooohh that’s what you meant. Haha. Thanks for the context!
What do they mean “trap laid by the right”. These college administrators are conservatives.
So when “leftists” in office are calling for ending “antisemtic” protests on campus, does that make them part of the right?
Those people aren’t leftists obviously. They’re likely liberals
What evidence is there that college administrators are leftists?
In my book, I plug every outlet. Please buy my book!
They mention it once in the whole article? But that’s half the stuff on The Conversation. No different from interviews on most news programs
Tin soldiers and Nixon’s coming
The student and nonstudents are helping with that trap.
By protesting obvious atrocities?
Silly. The Right isn’t doing anything…people in general are getting fed up. USC cancelled their graduation, imagine being a 4 year student who didn’t get to celebrate a graduation in 2020, and now they can’t in college? It’s getting ridiculous and these “protests” are starting to effect normal people…
They cancelled graduation after they banned the commencement speaker from speaking. Nobody made them do any of this.
Just imagine if they had done nothing. Just let the students talk and let the speech happen. There wouldn’t have been a big deal about it. Some people would have been offended sure but they can get over it. Just like everyone else gets over things that bothers them. Instead they made it a big deal so they could feel powerful over the kids. Must suck to be so much older than them and be so completely wrong.
Well, you can’t go around letting people just say whatever they want. Badspeak is called badspeak for a reason.
normal people who don’t want to be inconvenienced by genocide on the planet. I would call that an apathetic asshole but hey it’s your internal narrative right.
“forget the genocide, what about these poor kids who are gonna miss ANOTHER graduation ceremony?!?!”
Oh brother…here we go… because THAT’S the responsibility of Americans right? WE NEED TO DO MORE FOR EVERYONE ELSE!!!
“The US needs to stop getting involved in everyone’s business” - Sincerely, The World.
“The US needs to do more to get involved in everyone’s business” Sincerely, The World.
I swear…people want the US to be the international police until they don’t…
Lmao I’m pretty sure the main argument is for the US to stop sending billions in aid and weapons to Israel (and in this case, for Columbia to not invest in Israel)
US support is the only way it’s survived this long, so really we’d like them to be less of the world police.
Israel is our biggest ally in the Middle East. They literally are our extension in an area that hates America and will stop at nothing to kill us. These “protestors” have no idea how imperative it is that we support Israel because without support, they’d get invaded, slaughtered, and wiped out by the countries surrounding them. The whole point of Israel was to create a home for Jewish people, so that they’d have somewhere to call home if anything like the Holocaust were to ever happen again.
Lmao I wonder why anyone around there hates America…
Also I’m sure they found a home for them somewhere where nobody else was or at least moved in peacefully with a joint administration right
You can hate America all you want, it won’t change what happened Post WW2. The fact is Israel is a state for Jewish people now, because those more powerful countries at the time (that lost millions of lives to stop the Axis powers) had to do something for the Jewish people that were misplaced. They made a collective decision, based on what they thought was right at the time. The argument if Palestine belonged to anyone can go back and forth (although at the time it was colonized by the UK) however, it’s easy to look back now 75 years later and say “well, they shouldn’t have done that!” Israel isn’t going anywhere, even without US support, they’ll fight until they’re dead because that’s their home now.
That’s such a scary way to look at things. By your own narrative, you basically have to genocide the brown people that still left there. I mean, otherwise there will never be peace, right?
Maybe you could try using the slogan:
GENOCIDE FOR PEACE (EVENTUALLY)
Unfortunately for you, y’all never entirely genocided all the brown people here so you’ve got a bit of a fight on your hands. A lot of us are US citizens now and as you could maybe imagine we don’t really support genocide, for really any reason
Preventing geanocide with more genocide.
The tragedy of the Holocaust was the death, not the enthnicity of the slain.
They lost the plot, and so have our leaders.
affect
Guess they missed their college graduation where you learn the difference between “effect” and “affect”.
