    The mindset is so foreign from anything I can understand. Their grievances outweigh the chance for their children to live a better life, or even to live at all. I acknowledge that mindset exists but will never understand it on a human level.

      Blinken confirms - he's seen the photos.

                one might say the same about the systematically low status classes of America, where parenting is a persistent problem. Hopeless people don’t typically instill hope in their kids.

                  Great, so 1/2 of her tweet is irrelevant. Beyond that she seems to be ignoring the 12 or so Americans killed by Hamas… Beyond that, how many of her tweets do you think can be found that are very pro-Ukraine (not an American war)? Now while I agree that pro-Palestine displays and support should be allowed, I suspect our reasoning is VERY different.

                    Is DEI about inclusion and safety for all? Or is it just a tool for favored ethnicities to be prioritized over disfavored ones?

                    You decide.

                      Now imagine that Dean found a picture of a noose on a bulletin board. He would shut down the campus while they searched every cctv to find the culprits.

                                        Oh college kids... lots of energy, love to debate, love to protest, often don't realize it's futile and just an exercise of catharsis.
