        Well they know their western audience. It's entirely about leading people around by their performative virtues.

        Education is extremely important.

            @George-K Good. I assume he was on that list that you posted earlier. Would be interesting if relatives, etc had fly there to see him graduate.

              I can't help but wonder how much good these meaning-seeking SJWs could have done had they focused their hours locally and actually helped someone.

                  And they did focus their time locally! They burned down 3 stores and a police station over George Floyd!

                        The abstract is appalling but the tweeter’s question ‘Will Biden Act?’ is a non-sequitur. Do we really want presidents to censor law review articles

                          If asked today, nobody would want them to send the National Guard to a public school.

                            The president of California State University in Los Angeles declared that pro-Palestinian activists are no longer welcome on campus after a group of activists occupied last week the first four floors of a university building, causing significant damage and allegedly assaulting three employees and one student.

                            and

                            So long as the [Gaza Solidarity] Encampment remained non-violent, I was committed that the university would continue to talk,' California State University President Berenecea Johnson Eanes wrote after a group of activists occupied a university building, causing significant damage and allegedly assaulting three employees and one student

                                      This coming weekend into next week is the European Respiratory Society meeting in Vienna. I’ll be able to spend quality time with my friend in Columbia leadership there. Can’t wait to hear some scoop about the president leaving.
