Are college protesters ‘terrorists’ — or just impressionable kids?

everyone of these idiots has BLM merch and probably antifa stickers
Are college protesters ‘terrorists’ — or just impressionable kids?
In January, Bill Ackman wrote for The Free Press that antisemitism is not the root cause of the protests; rather, he wrote, antisemitism is the canary in the coal mine signaling another problem: the poisonous worldview that divides us, without nuance, into oppressors and the oppressed.
This makes sense because, despite inflammatory rhetoric to the contrary, not everyone taking part in pro-Palestine rallies harbors malice against Jewish people.
But many young Americans do see Israel as an oppressor and Palestinians as oppressed because they’ve been taught to view the world through these malign goggles. Young adults who’ve been fed an ideological diet like this register no horror when they go to the National Students for Justice in Palestine website and see North America — their home — described as “occupied Turtle Island.” They’ve been conjugating this ideology in lockstep with their teachers and slouching toward socialism under their tutelage.

They mostly do seem to be the dregs of whatever body they are a part of.
I bet the collective GPA, IQ, and standardized test scores of any group of campus protestors are far below the average of the student body at large. I bet the percentage of student aid / financial hardship scholarships of the protestors are at least 50% higher than the student body's at large as well.

They’re adults breaking the law and need held accountable.

There's plenty of them on camera saying we are hamas, a designated terrorist organization. They should be treated like terrorists since they claim to be one.

They’re really just retards. We need to put them away into the mental institutions.

There are NGO’s organizing these protest. They have been organizing for over a decade. The source of their funding is coming from oversees.

As city officials question who’s funding anti-Israel protests broiling with antisemitism at Columbia University and New York University and point to the nearly identical tents used at these “encampments” occupying campuses, one expert tells Fox News Digital the apparent organization and recent student “training sessions” suggests “foreign assistance.”
quote:
Those signs include things like having common tents, having those tents all purchased and ready to go. Even the timing of the protests, right on the eve of Passover, this is well-timed to put Jewish students in a disadvantageous position because they’d be away for the holiday. And then also the remarkable similarities in language being used by protesters and foreign actors, including Hamas and Hezbollah,” he said.

A Piece of Shite like George Soros, will pay them to vote, he will pay them to protest, and he will pay them to start fires. In fact, there is nothing "off the table'', that he won't do to get his way.
If it looks like Trump has a chance to win the election, he will do whatever it takes to stop him. Soros has the money and the will to change the future, and he will crush "anyone" that gets in his way.

They are being groomed by social media and the Universities. I love the Internet and it's a great invention, but it's fricked up many minds for the past 15-20 years.

Neither, either or both.
Depends on their actions.

You are correct. They are young, impressionable, misinformed, and believe they are in the right. The universities promote this and students don't perform their own due diligence.

Sorry for the 60s lingo but: They're just trying to make the scene.

This assumes that most of the protesters are actually students and not rent a protesters.
