DJJIB-DJDCT posted:I hadn't thought of the protest thing, good point. Protest is only allowed if it's... well not protesting anything, as you say, but feeding directly into it. As for the ritualistic nature of voting, I'm not the kind of person who goes around shrieking "Don't vote, voting is evil" because individual votes are insignificant and I don't care. But yeah the primary purpose of elections is to legitimize the regime, not to decide its policies nor to choose the people who actually make those decisions. The decisions will be made by the ghouls lurking in the wine caves.

comedyblissoption posted:the hard part obviously is it's effectively a boycott of israel, which is politically problematic with elite opinion. it's also literally against the law in most states because of anti-BDS legislation that would affect state colleges & universities. quote:As of 2024, 38 states have passed bills and executive orders designed to discourage boycotts of Israel. Many of them have been passed with broad bipartisan support. Most anti-BDS laws have taken one of two forms: contract-focused laws requiring government contractors to promise that they are not boycotting Israel; and investment-focused laws, mandating public investment funds to avoid entities boycotting Israel. meanwhile the feds are being pressured to pass a federal anti-bds law.

the article is pretty good lol what about Trump?, I asked Hammoud. How does he square support for someone who was widely seen as favorable to the Israeli government? “Biden is deeply committed to Zionism, a true believer, not acting on the whims of some lobby. That scares me a lot more,” Hammoud said. On this front, he says, he prefers someone like Trump. “Let’s assume my nonvote for Biden is a vote for Trump automatically. That indirect vote for Trump brings a guy into office who I don’t know what he will do. At the worst, he will be nasty toward us here, like he was in the past. And we can fight him within the law. I cannot fight Joe Biden when he stands with Israel,” he said.

SixteenShells posted:The really stupid thing about the university protests and the admins' refusals is that the demand isn't even hard. It's not like they're asking the university to burn the money in its portfolio in a dumpster. Just invest it in literally anything else. The Columbia protest's website specifically names Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and a list of other companies represented in ETFs. Here's the thing though, and this is where I might be just confused or misreading things. I thought that in the case of Columbia especially that a lot of students were upset that there was a Tel Aviv campus being built that Palestinian students wouldn't be able to access by nature of the aparthaid state?

Yeah that's number two on their list. You're right, not all the demands are as easy to meet as the endowment one. I guess my real point was that the investment piece of it is a pretty low bar to clear and they won't even do that.

I think that clear, specific demands are a big reason the protests are so threatening. Also, kudos to whoever trained the protesters to direct media to media liaisons, instead of talking to them and letting them cherry-pick the craziest random half-sentences for broadcast.
