But I am SURE someone will come in here and yell at me for sources and tell me this is some sort of Jewish agenda, misinformation, etc.
I'm sure you wouldn't support the enemies of someone who had bombed and starved your entire family.

Being charitable to him, he thinks cops are basically untrained animals and a smart person should be smart enough to not get bit. Which I don't really disagree with. But he seems to think that's just how police inherently are and thus not something worth getting mad about. But we know it's not just how police inherently are, because we see how they treat people they like (white supremacists). And we see how more civilized police in other countries behave.
They're our employees and are supposed to serve us, but they only see us as their enemy, and normal people tend to rightfully get pissed off when they come to that realization.

The easy way to tell that none of this is about antisemitism is that we’ve seen thousands of antisemitic public rallies the past 8 years. The cops that show up are never violent with them and can often be seen joking around with Nazis and otherwise being friendly with them.
Meanwhile, this is how they treat a philosophy professor at Emory:
The only people cops aren’t this violent with are Nazis.

I don't understand what is offensive or scary about this. Are we concerned that occupying grass is going to disrupt something? The south lawn is occupied every day class is in session, UT football is playing, or some other event is occurring on campus. It is also occupied around commencement, and a million other times during the year. Here are some pictures of it being "occupied" and somehow riot police weren't needed. Oh the fucking horror!
Some posters are really letting their secret aggy out in more ways than one.

It's always weird to see someone basically say how much they love the taste of boot leather. I'm not one for kink shaming but there's still some things people should probably keep to themselves.

Again, y’all just need to search for posts with the word “speech” made by Johnny Sack, and see his complete about face on it here (not so cleverly disguised as simply adhering to first amendment precedent), to realize he’s completely full of shit and simply trolling y'all to get a rise out of you.

If anyone wants to do a fun little experiment, use the search function to search for posts including the word "speech" made by Johnny Sack.

What is the debate? Their right as Jews to exist? The right of Israel to exist? Their association with Israel? Are we going back to BC, 1948, the most recent Hamas attack, Israel's response? The treatment of the average Palestinian in Gaza? Is there a moderator? Can the audience shout down the speakers?
I have got to tell you that debating a mob that is or isn't violent is a terrible idea. What you call debating at a demonstration is a simple yelling at each other and in those kind of debates, majority rules. Meanwhile many kids just want to go to school without incident and get prepared for finals. And just because one is Jewish, doesn't mean he supports Israel, it doesn't mean he must denounce Israel, and it could mean any thing in-between. Jews aren't some monolithic block. There are many differing views. So when Jerry Seinfeld or Michael Dell, or Scarlett Johansson get confronted by demonstrators because of their religion, it raises a lot of red flags for Jews in the US. And then when the demonstrations are being started on campus and begin to spread, it raises more red flags.
As for everything being peaceful, I can only go by hearsay because I'm a little old for campus. What I can gather is that it is peaceful if you are thick skinned. Intimidation, chants like from the river to the sea, the Holocaust didn't exist, Jews kill Palestinian babies, are present. And such things wouldn't affect all Jews equally. Some may call that peaceful as long as there isn't spitting and pushing. Some may be scared. Some would rather celebrate Pesach than deal with a bunch of protests.
And as you said people who engage in violence, threats, and intimidation, should be held accountable. This hasn't been happening, though. And things are getting out of hand in many places around the country and around the world. When mobs storm the airport terminal in Daghestani, shouting antisemitic slogans, chanting "Allahu Akbar" and running around asking staff where the "Jews" are, Jews around the world take notice. It has been seen before and it has rarely ended peacefully.
What the fuck does Daghestani have to do with American college campuses?

Israel
in Cloak Room
Many of the students protesting on campuses all around the country are themselves Jewish. The protesters at Columbia literally held a Seder and clearly explained how their Judaism compelled them to protest Israel’s actions. It’s fucking absurd for public officials and so many in the media to pretend these protests are rife with antisemitism.

On one hand, you desire to see people physically abused for their beliefs, and on the other, you express dismay that you might be virtually punished for yours.
Imagine thinking BL is a liberal tyrant mod.

I agree 100% with #1 and #2. I disagree about #3. Trump's public displays of leadership during covid were about what you could expect from a reality TV star running a superpower during a no-shit global crisis, but covid was going to come to the US and kill a million plus no matter who was in the white house. And for all of his public fumbling, Trump largely allowed "the deep state" to do what they had planned for this scenario. Even if he just kind of left a lot of the actual response to the states, lockdowns and mask mandates happened, and a vaccine got developed and deployed in a pretty astonishing feat of governmental and industrial cooperation. A lot of lives were saved as a result of those efforts directed primarily by federal technocrats like Fauci and other public health officials below the federal level. Neither Trump or Biden had much to do with it.
The movement against vaccines and public health measures to deal with covid didn't come from the oval office and seemed largely grass roots to me. If anyone is to blame for that, its probably social media companies and their algorithms to amplify content among clusters of the population regardless of its veracity and nation states unfriendly to the US that would have seen it as another great opportunity to sow discord amongst our citizens using their varied means.
Early in the pandemic, Trump or his closest associates used federal law enforcement to literally steal PPE and ventilators from states and hospitals, not for public use but for private profit. He should absolutely be in prison for that.

This shit is so funny man. We get it, you like your car. You don't have to run around getting angry about "unfair" tests of its capabilities. I'm pretty sure most normal people think that if a FSD-ish system is going to be allowed to be used on our roads it should be able to avoid hitting children who are wearing neutral colors.

I don't know what degree of support vs opposition there was in the days immediately after, but I'm sure it was mixed and based on plenty of inaccurate information, because that's how things like that work everywhere. I'm sure plenty of Palestinians felt the murder of Israeli civilians was justified, just as many here have since felt that the murder of Palestinian civilians is justified.
