“34,000 dead you’re arresting kids instead”
I don't think starting out May Day by sending riot police to brutalize and arrest students and workers at @CUNY City College is going to end up working the way they want it to.
House Democrats will co-sponsor bills to defund higher ed. Biden will sign into law.

I have covered tons of protests over the years and the cop response to Columbia University tonight was more than I’ve ever seen. It felt like they were using these student protestors as an excuse to play with their military toys.

Amazing how many people in this country have internalized the idea that if you break the law, you don't just get arrested, but that police have the right to beat the shit out of you in the process, tase you, break your bones.
The "outside agitator" is classic agitprop + projection. King demystified it for us in his "Letter from Birmingham Jail."
All this so Israel can keep killing kids
Begging some of you to imagine how you'd feel about this exact sequence of events if the president was the other guy.
The way WKCR journalists are handling copaganda (insisting on confirmation and verification before repeating tropes and rumors) versus the way CNN is not only uncritically repeating police statements but marveling at their tactics is truly something to behold.
wkcr students are having to counter report against journalists like anderson cooper who are repeating fact free conjecture that the people being brutalized and arrested are indeed their peers. this is insane.

The miles of distance between the students journalists we’re listening to tonight and those who shuffled past protestors to eat dinner with reality stars and Joe Biden this weekend.
This country has more force for student protesters than they did for Jan. 6 or white supremacists marching through campuses with Tiki torches.

Maybe the first question should be, why are universities invested in *anything* to the degree they are? A hedge fund with a college attached serves nobody but the malefactors of great wealth.
Very respectfully [sound of a 1A lawyer shitting herself]
Very respectfully, there is no constitutional right to forcibly occupy private property. I do agree police force should be a last resort, reasonable and proportional. These are, indeed, students who are, by definition, learning. But so are their classmates with divergent views…
Amazing how many people in this country have internalized the idea that if you break the law, you don't just get arrested, but that police have the right to beat the shit out of you in the process, tase you, break your bones.
All of them. Every single one. There is no evidence to the contrary. These people are enabling the brutalization of students.
Difficult not to agree with this: “The reason so much of the news media sucks is they aren’t writing for you. They’re writing for their sources in Washington, for the industries they cover, for rich people, and for fancy awards committees.”

@BlackRedGuard1 not even close. there are close to 40,000 active pigs in the city. this is a small fraction of their fascist paramilitary.
I don't care what anyone says, this warms my heart. It takes juevos to essentially be a traitor to your political class.
Hey guess what—I still voted for Biden in 2020. So if you’re gonna see through me, at least call me a coward and a hypocrite for (correctly) assessing in 2020 that sclerotic liberalism was preferable to fascism four years ago and maybe reflect on why my support is wavering now.
