Riger waters has a song on ummagumma called several species of small furry animals gathered together in a cave and grooving with a pict.
He’s a better musician than anyone posting here.

McWhorter is linguist with a focus on Creolist language. He's a classical liberal who finds BLM to be an obnoxiously racist group, the climate change crowd to be analogous to a radical religion (and has written a book on it) and has spoken on and written extensively on how what the black community needs to focus on isn't "muh white privilege" but the death of the black, nuclear family and lack of positive black, male role models.
He does a weekly podcast with Glenn Loury (a black economist), usually on race issues. Most here would agree with the vast majority of their stances (especially Glenn, who is a conservative).
I can't read the rest of the OpEd because of the paywall, but having read and listened to his works for years I seriously doubt he's agreeing with the protestors.

Fair enough, my apologies.
You denouncing them is good enough for me.
That being said, only someone disconnected from reality would deny that the far left is who is running the Democratic Party.
As such, a vote for a Democrat IS supporting these people.
If you support them, they are your people.
You have a choice in November, either vote Democrat and adopt these pseudo terrorists, or actually denounce them by not voting Dem.
How much integrity do you have?

A P in music means soft for you non musical nerds out there.

However, chanting “from the river to the sea” is clearly attached to Palestinian desires to destroy Israel, and people need to understand that before they bleat like sheep.
It’s very funny when you interrogate someone for doing this and they are like “I’m chanting for a secular Palestine where Jews, Christians, Muslims, and atheists can all live under a socialist government” and it’s like, that’s fine, but maybe 1% of Arabs chanting that slogan across the world want that, so it’s so untethered from actual reality

Wtf.
It's about as giant and stupid a waste of time as it sounds and I remember telling a music professor that after he "performed" it in class.
Pretty sure the word "horseshite" was used.

What Hamas did was horrible. Retaliation was expected, but to what degree?
Until Hamas is no more.
More like until Gaza is no more.
One thing we miss in the US is that in Israel there heavy opposition to Netenyahu's tactics in Gaza, and his failure to retrieve the hostages.

If these protests are going to happen, at least keep them on campus, where the protesters' chanting isn't interfering with anyone doing something productive
