Just checked out the article and video. I'm a bit out of the loop, but the woman in the video says

Ms King-Slutzky said: “Nobody’s asking them to bring anything.

“We’re asking them to not violently stop us from bringing in [food and water]’’

Is this the hilariously mollycoddled part? The article makes it sound like the protestors want "to be fed", but her quotes seem to suggest they just want to not be assaulted for bringing their own food? Or at least, asking for food they have already paid for to be provided? Can someone clear this up?

It just seems like any time some young liberal college students want to protest something (like a genocide), there's an arsenal of right wing media out to make them look like morons. Sure, young people don't always have their shit together, but as a country we should be in support of protests and protestors, even if we don't agree with their message. Why shit on free speech?

We taught every student never again. Never again stand by and watch people be killed for no reason. Never again be idle while genocide happens on our watch.

The the Molly coddled people are the one saying nothing while the evil happens.

The West only gets what it deserves. Western counties have fully abanded enforcing moral standards, it deserves total destruction.

@uzi @wintermute_oregon This sounds a bit like the rhetoric from #OsamaBinLaden's manifesto

The left has tried to create a false narrative around how the world works.

You mean by calling out racist shitbags who commit genocide?

@some_guy @wintermute_oregon I could be wrong but I don't think the left has done much to call out #Hamas

[-] BobaFuttbucker@reddthat.com 9 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Because Hamas hasn’t been a real threat in months. Israel has been the primary threat with their almost nonstop attacks since this war began, targeting of innocent civilians trying to get supplies, and intentional killing of children.

Hamas is horrible, but so are the actions of Israel’s military thus far.

It’s ok to be against both, but right now only one is political.

Also consider those protesting Israel’s actions don’t have an issue with their treatment of Hamas, but of the Palestinian people that are innocent and having to struggle to survive amongst this violence.

EVERYBODY LOVE EVERYBODY.
