I've seen conservatives rather split on how they think this issue should be dealt with. Some of them think they should stay out of it and let leftists and liberals destroy themselves. After all, they hate both institutions of higher learning and leftists so why stop them from destroying their own institutions and voter base? Unlike the BLM protests they can't even pretend protestors are "looting and burning down cities wholesale" and the message of the protestors is a lot more concise which leaves less room for ambiguity and bad faith interpretations. They're full of contradictions which I understand is the point but sometimes it's amusing to think about scenarios that would go exactly the way they think they should. "They're just cosplaying they aren't being serious" (what to them is a serious student protest exactly?) "They should go protest in Gaza if they care so much" (which will somehow garner more respect from the right because they're so committed to their cause? ) "The cops should just indiscriminately mow them down/mass deport the lot of them" (and when people protest even more in response, what then?)

Here's the text: "BREAKING: The University of Ottawa agrees to disclose a list of updated investments by June 1st. This comes after meetings with protest organizers have resumed this week and is the first of the protesters' four demands. (1/2) In a Instagram post, INSAF and the PSA wrote "this does not mean our job is done — we, as student organizers, are in dialogue with administration about divestment. That means we need our communities ongoing support until the divestment demands are met." (2/2)"

Woman's hijab pulled off at Ottawa rally Its an upsetting story to begin with but what sticks out to me so much is just how childish the pro Israeli counterprotesters are in the b-roll footage. They treat "protest" as a chance to act like taunting pricks dancing and yukking and daring people to attack them with big white smiles and armed cops backing them up. "We are allowed to treat you like poo poo and if you stop us you get arrested" energy.

I've personally had a knife pulled on me for the sole reason that I'm Jewish. The "they" you wanna be going after is Zionists, not Jews.

i'm sure the establishment's next trick is trying to remove "jewish" status* from anti-zionist and non-zionist jews because there are more than enough to be a problem to the establishment *except to be victims of stochastic terror deliberately incited and encouraged by zionists, of course Anime Schoolgirl has issued a correction as of 07:21 on May 19, 2024 |

Anime Schoolgirl posted:i'm sure the establishment's next trick is trying to remove "jewish" status* from anti-zionist and non-zionist jews because there are more than enough to be a problem to the establishment I mean that "Next trick" has been happening. On 10/8 (and frequently since), the Jerusalem post has been printing editorials saying it's time to stop considering antizionist Jews Jews. We're also included as much as anyone else in bills like HR 888, which states that antizionism is antisemitism. Fun fact! The congressman who introduced that bill once out out an extremely antisemitic ad basically saying that if you don't vote for him, scary Jews will take over. This attempt to confuse antizionism with antisemitism is deliberate, both because it can cover for actual antisemitism, and because when we complain about actual antisemitism, assholes like this can be like "No, go to YOUR country", and then be rid of their Jews. Remember how Biden said, multiple times, that no Jew would be safe anywhere without Israel?
