Is anyone else unmoved by the Hamas-Israel college campus story?

On one hand I have no clue what the left thinks it’s doing or wining by coordinating this. On the other, seeing Repub politicians and right leaning folks galvanized to defend Israel’s honor is perplexing as well considering most were silent in 2020.

I just think it’s a test run for something worse leading up to the elections.

Exactly. If left unchecked this will be the protests for the Presidential elections.

Ultimately yes, it’s not our fight.

I guess I’m not fired up seeing cops finally have a backbone or goofy college kids protecting a flag on their lawn

Don’t be silly. It’s almost like you naively think these aren’t anti American/ anti Western / anti Christian riots. Israel is just a proxy object of hatred to destroy for these people. You either defend American traditions, principles, ideals and Institutions or you don’t. Whether Israel exists or not, it’s the same battle and it’s being fought now on campuses. Next Summer somewhere else.

I'm so tired of hearing about it. This would've been a nothing burger if national media didn't rush to these campuses and give these dorks front page coverage.

Why would Israel have been an issue in 2020?

I don't see it as defending Israel.

I see these little bitches trespassing, illegally assembling, harassing people, preventing people from freely accessing places they want to go, breaking into building, spreading filth, and being violent and definitely intimidating people.

I want these pieces of shite arrested again immediately for these reasons.

That's the one thing I can't blame the R politicians for -- since they're allied with Israel, anyway, it's a free shot to say everything about these protestors that was said about J6ers. The speech bill was way overboard, though.

I have an extensive knowledge on the Israel/Palestine conflict and some opinions relating to that, but the campus protests themselves don’t really interest me at all and I think make both sides look stupid.

Cheering on police crushing the most beta people ever does feel gross

Exactly. Israel lol. This is The International Left using our children to find common cause with Islamofacism. They even have these little religious-cosplayers praying to Allah. Pay attention people.

I'm good with it making the modern American Left look like the bumbling clueless idiots they are, who have basically run out of "causes" to the point they have to try to find one that literally turns off seemingly everybody who is not a complete whack job. It's actually sort of perfect in this regard.

The right, however, would do well to just give it some token disapproval and move on. The idea that people are actually considering legislation to somehow "combat" this stuff, is completely absurd and typical shooting themselves in the foot.

I would prefer we organize and take it to the International Left wherever they organize. Bring consequences to them in defense of Western civilization.

Just more evidence of the social and cultural rot that we all know is expanding.

Reframe it.

Just enjoy dirty REI hippies getting ridiculed and tackled after they get held to account for their actions.

It’s good entertainment.

Watching the OM boys shame the smelly klan away was great.

Oh, I agree. I think the left is far less competent than they’re given credit for.
