LOL. If you think squishy ivory tower administrators restricting open parades in favor of terrorists and suggesting Jewish students shouldn’t be beaten is “shocking”, you’re in for a hell of a ride.

Regular people are done with the CRT, anti-colonialist, fake lefty revolutionary crap. For a while it was sort of cute, in a vaguely pathetic way… like your precocious younger sibling getting into music for the first time. But it’s over now. The leaders of this crap are legitimately sick and should be deported; but the country is collectively waking up to the absolute rot among the young, casual left that those people have wrought.


Really because most people I know are waking up to the fascist impulses of the right — you can’t just deport or put in camps the people you don’t like.

And a lot of young people are pretty shocked by the number of people affirmatively calling for the killing of more civilians. Think Israel has killed more civilians now than Russia has in Ukraine.

The real rot is treating people who have done nothing wrong but be outside your group as vermin that need to be exterminated.


+1 but the people you are talking to are maybe 50 and over and boomers who are pretty fascist (as evidenced in their messages here). The good news is, they are old, and soon the younger generations will take over. The majority of people are not like what you see on DCUM- I hardly even come here anymore because it’s just so … old and fascist and vengeful and murderous. But when you step outside DCUM, you see that these people being grumpy and mad online about stuff like this are the true minority. They know it and it makes them very very mad (online).


Had to chuckle at this. You’re either a college freshman or irredeemably dim.

I agree, but I think because GenX is parent to GenZ they will be more supportive of this takeover than Boomers *generally* were to their own children.


Getting GenX to care about anything is a tall order.

Proud GenXer here. True dat! I’m not Israeli. I’m not Palestinian. It’s not my problem. My world doesn’t stop if Palestine is destroyed. My world doesn’t stop if Israel is destroyed. Their hate for each other is their problem not mine.

Praising martyrs on the heels of a major terrorist attack against Jews is supporting terrorism.



I just LOVE how certain Jews just want to dehumanize every Palestinian and make them evil. You are a horrible person.


No one has said "all Palestinians." The martyrs referred to in the GWU projections were the actual terrorists. Do we "humanize" the 9/11 hijackers?


Look up on this page and tell me how no one said "all Palestinians."

But your tax dollars are being used to fund a genocide against innocent Palestinians. You don’t have to pick a side but you should care that your money is being used to fund the terrorism of the Israeli government.

Exactly. What an uneducated moron.

If you knew Arabic or knew anything about Arab culture you would know that Palestinians describe every single person killed by Israel as a martyr--babies, old people, disabled people. It is not just about Hamas. And talking about glory refers to the glory that all of these people will receive in the afterlife. It is really about respecting those who have been murdered by Israel.


Then figure out a way to not give "glory" to Hamas terrorists.

Maybe figure out how not to draw the wrong conclusions based on your limited knowledge of another culture?

Are you going to boycott British people for talking about fags too?

I'm not drawing any conclusions. "Glory" is the term being used. Nothing about a suicidal barbaric murderer deserves "glory."

My tax dollars have funded several genocides. There's no stopping politicians and their interests in foreign wars.

My tax dollars subsidized massacres in Yemen far worse than anything in Israel or Gaza. I don't recall anyone caring then.

"If you knew Arabic..." - okay... but this is being projected for all to see, not just those well versed in the culture and linguistic norms.

What if there was something similar from right wing Christians after the Orlando shooting at the LGBTQ nightclub?

Let's be clear this wouldn't be tolerated against other groups.


Then go learn something about the culture. I'm the PP and am an American WASP who learned some Arabic and spent time in the Middle East. It's harder to demonize people when you speak their language and have spent time living in their society. They just seem like normal people and then when they're dehumanized in American discourse and slaughtered with your tax dollars it might actually tear at your conscience the way that it should. Americans in general know too little about the world. If Americans had any idea what life under the occupation is like, there would be a lot less support for Israel.

The point is that “martyrs” refers to all of the civilians killed by Israeli bombing. I’ve seen family members post “glory to our martyrs” referring to 12 year old girls shot for stepping outside their house.

That's hard to believe considering the umbrella group - SJP - actually praised the Hamas terrorists following the 10/7 attack.
And, don't forget they featured a paraglider on their flyer announcing a "Day of Resistance."
If you don't want to be accused of supporting Hamas when you shout "Glory to the Martyrs," then you shouldn't associate with groups that have actually outright condoned the actions of the terrorists on 10/7.

In a statement published after the October 7 invasion, SJP described Hamas’ massacres of Israelis as “a historic win for Palestinian resistance,” and called for “Not just slogans and rallies, but armed confrontation with the oppressors.” In its “Day of Resistance Toolkit,” SJP made clear that it advocates for Hamas or other Palestinian forces to militarily conquer all of Israel; it applauded the Hamas occupation of Israeli towns along the Gaza border and proclaimed that its goal is “complete liberation” of Israel and the full influx of Palestinians to Israeli land.

Now, I’d sure like to see some well funded primary opponents take on and beat the pro-Hamas sympathizers in Congress. Buh-bye!
