You revealed how little you know about the ethos of the protestors. Whatever food they’d like delivered, they do not want Starbucks. But what really bothers you is that the students, who are typically in the vanguard of political and cultural movements, have in large numbers made clear their repudiation of Israel, not whether some protestors may come from privileged backgrounds. |
Oh noes!! Did I reveal how little I know about their ethos per rando poster spamming the thread? So no Starbuck's...but they'll figure out a way to get that pizza up the rope. These fools could be protesting something else and they'd still be annoying AF. |
Amazing how much vitriol there is against theee protestors. I guess it means they are getting whatever point they want across effectively enough that people want to shut them down. These are college protests. They are a thing that happen. I was visiting my DD this past weekend on a college campus (not Columbia). We saw the encampment on her campus. We walked around it. It just wasn’t that big a deal. I get why when students take over buildings, you have to take a stand and remove them. But how the heck did it get to this stage unless the administration was colossally stupid. But generally? Let them protest. Establish clear rules on what is unacceptable and then follow through. This vitriol against students on this thread is upsetting. |
Fox sure has the crazies worked up. Wonder what they could possibly be distracting from? Complete mystery. |
Part of it is stupidity from school administration, yee. But also this particular school protest is, unlike others, directed partially at other students. |
I can certainly believe they think they're too good for Starbucks. They are not an impressive group; rather, they have shown themselves as a group so arrogant, self-entitled, and privileged that they have no problem interfering with the education and graduation of their classmates, whining when they don't get their own way, and expecting others to bring them water and food after they've taken over a college building and part of the campus. Can only imagine the mess they'll leave behind for working class people like the custodians. They should be suspended and/or expelled, some with a police record that will follow them. |
I'm shocked at the amount of damage they've done to the building at Columbia, and amazed they haven't been arrested. And now the school is saying they "could" face expulsion? Why didn't they expel them stat? |
+1 Not for long, though. And only in their campus bubbles. Once they enter the real world, they won't know what hit them. |
You must not be reading the headlines of the NYTimes. |
Oh, hon. You've been fretting about the "Zionists" for pages and pages now. What you seem unaware of is that we're all laughing at these dopes - and you. |
I am sick of these coddled brats. Every student involved am should be arrested and expelled. Any school who gives into these "Too much and never enough" dilatantes. If I were the parent paying the tuition of any of these students, it would be cut off immediately. |
The PP writes unintelligible word salads and thinks she's incredibly erudite. It's pretty amusing. DP |
So if they divest, what good stocks at bargain prices are there going to be for the rest of us to snap up? |
