What do you think about the protests on campus against Israel?

Every protest I've been to has had the exact same tenor, has had the exact same messaging,

but you always have that idiot or two that shows up with a sign.

And no one knows who that idiot is, ironically, never comes with anybody else, always shows

up somehow in the middle of the protest and puts up a sign that says something completely contrary to the messaging of the protests.

And all the cameras shift towards that guy.

I see it every single time.

But the overwhelming tenor of all of these protests has been consistent.

It's been calling for freedom. It's been calling for liberation. It's been calling for an end to the genocide, a ceasefire, an end to the occupation, and end to the apartheid.

People go and serve in the IDF and then come back to the United States or the United Kingdom,

and they're not stigmatized for participating in apartheid policies or

participating in a genocide. How am I supposed to feel as a Palestinian, knowing that this guy

right next to me participated in murdering my relatives in Gaza, right, and has open reign to say what he wants to say or do what he wants to do.

And so we haven't seen the other side of that as well, but I'd recommend to anyone that's

talking about pro-Palestine protests to actually go see one.

But I think that this is a sign of the outrage and the anger and the frustration that many students

have about being silenced again in the media in academic settings. Professors are losing

their jobs. Students are having their faces put on trucks being doxed. These shady watch

list that get put out. I'm on a few of them as well and I just don't care anymore, right?
