Americans are so Islamophobic that “intifada” is deemed to be dangerous hate speech despite it literally just meaning “shake it off”.

Columbia's web page discussing its regret for calling in police to arrest students in 1968 is displaying a warning about limited access due to NYPD on campus arresting students. May Columbia never live this down.
cop texting they thought they shot someone (thought this one deserved its own post)
This is fucking horrifying

Images from CCNY tonight:
Police all around the country are attempting to disrupt the Student Revolution for Palestine. Hear from Matt from @ydsaumn talk about how UMPD is attempting to disrupt their encampment.
If this were in Russia or Iran -- a police force of this size deployed against students protesting the state's war policies -- it'd be universally denounced as evil tyranny. The problem for the protesters is they chose the one issue that could provoke police force of this kind:

THIS IS OVER KIDS IN TENTS.
Mainstream liberals cannot even fathom that students are upset their universities have financial ties to a country currently committing a genocide (with our monetary and political support!).

TO BE CLEAR, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY HAS CALLED THE COPS ONTO ITS OWN STUDENTS FOR THE SECOND TIME IN TWO WEEKS, ON THE 56TH ANNIVERSARY OF WHEN THEY LAST CALLED THE POLICE ONTO CAMPUS TO ARREST OVER 700 PROTESTING THE VIETNAM WAR & HARLEM GENTRIFICATION ON APRIL 30TH, 1968
And here you can see officers entering an academic building with their weapons drawn, in response to college students protesting their tax & tuition dollars contributing to a plausible genocide
may columbia’s reputation never recover
One person in a wheelchair holds off 50 riot cops at City College, which the NYPD has barricaded.
BREAKING: NYPD officer turning off body camera at Columbia University. Officer is on campus.
UAW 4811 stands in solidarity with students and @SW_Columbia academic workers at Columbia where admin, along with politicians, have chosen to bring in heavily armed police instead of coming to an agreement. 48000 workers at UC are with you in the fight for justice in Palestine.

It will be interesting to learn how many of those arrested in Hamilton Hall at Columbia are actually students.
So cops are just breaking and entering now! Cool!

Friends, please, please amplify. The NYPD are now raiding City College. Reports are hundreds of cops. Please, I know that what happened at Columbia tonight is sickening--but this is Part II. And our @CUNY students are largely working class students of color.
“this does not help your cause” - guy who hates you and your cause
student reporters trying to hold back tears as they have to report on the fact that NYPD will have a permanent presence on campus until May 17th
There are several dozen @Teamsters workers and several hundred grad workers @ueunion who are locked out of the @UMNews and being denied their wages. This is wage theft.
We are witnessing the weaponization of law enforcement in New York City under the watch of a Democratic Mayor, Governor, and President—all because these leaders rather defend a genocide over listening to the voices of the people. It’s wrong.
