Need to be very clear about what happened here: NYPD went on Morning Joe and lied to Americans about Columbia University students in order to make it appear those students were working with organized, transnational terrorist organizations

Any single one of these things done by a pro-Palestine protester would earn a congressional hearing.

wkcr students are having to counter report against journalists like anderson cooper who are repeating fact free conjecture that the people being brutalized and arrested are indeed their peers. this is insane.

I feel like I'm losing my mind a little: people understand that 'occupying buildings on campus' is, like, one of the most common forms of studen protest for decades and not some devious new ploy devised by professional anarchist plotters, right?

if nothing else, the present moment—which has seen thousands of peaceful pro-Palestine campus protesters brutalized by hyper-militarized police—has entirely unmasked the 'free speech' campus crusaders for what they really are: reactionary charlatans

Remember when that girl at Yale said someone poked her in the eye and she spent 3 days on every major news outlet and hung out with the Speaker of the House?

That was like 10 days ago

How student journalists reported the news vs The New York Times

It's so incredibly clear that the police stood aside and let a pro Israeli lynch mob run wild at UCLA. They did nothing for two hours as violent Zionists assaulted students, launched fireworks into the encampment, and sprayed mace on students.

I’m sure her heart was in the right place, but by explicitly breaking the rules of the bus Rosa Parks had more than a little in common with January 6.

Biden’s team uses harsher language towards 19-year-old students than they do towards far-right Israeli ministers who all but advocate for the collective punishment of Palestinians in Gaza, a war which has killed over 35,000 civilians.

This is what the violence we're seeing on campuses is designed to defend.

After days of Biden repeatedly condemning campus protests as antisemitic, pro-Israel demonstrators have now violently attacked an encampment at UCLA, calling for a 'Second Nakba!'

Biden was warned his increasingly hostile rhetoric would fuel this kind of violence.

I am watching a toddler die on a table in a field hospital in Rafah with half her face blown apart while listening to college students fight tears reporting on a police assault on their campus for protesting that, and I feel like I am losing my fucking mind.

A question I'd ask the American political elite is how many students and professors are you willing to beat into a pulp in order to shield Israel from perfectly legitimate criticism based on widely shared principles?

This is brilliant footage of the state of relations between us, the media and the governing classes.

you guys are making fun of this woman but this is actually exactly what it’s like to grow up in suburban New Jersey and in that way this thread is kind of beautiful performance art

Wait 'til this motherfucker hears what international law has to say about ongoing occupation.

seeing pictures and videos of mutilated Palestinians excavated from mass graves, alongside videos of ongoing airstrikes in Gaza, alongside videos of police brutalizing nonviolent campus protestors, alongside videos like this --- a radicalizing experience for millions of people
