    Well it's a complex topic and stands to reason you don't understand most of it.  In the meantime, for your reading pleasure, may I interest you in this leaflet, "Famous Jewish Sports Legends"? /elaine

    Jay Fiedler FTW

    After leading the Dolphins to a 28-20 victory that day, Fiedler,
    who last Friday proudly wore a gray JEWISH SPORTS HALL OF FAME
    T-shirt in the Miami locker room, heard his teammates kvelling
    about his guts.

    I'll reiterate my point since this is obviously going to scale more and more on campuses before the end of the semester.  We're seeing now in the mid double-digits in terms of campuses, thousands of arrests, etc.  

    There's a lot of nuance to this issue for me, I'm staunchly more pro-Israel than most here, more pro-1A than most here (they think they are, but they're not in practice), many (not most or all) protests have gotten out of hand are in violation of otherwise clear policies/laws.  there does seem to be some bad actors/non-students afoot in many of these situations, that's for another thread derail to unpack as we get more and more solid information), many (not most or all) the law enforcement (be it campus PD up to Staties) are being fucking ridiculous and using this as a chance to rough up smaller people who they know aren't armed.  It's dividing administrations, donors, alums, and students over what has existed for decades on campuses (pro-Palestine/pro-Israeli demonstrations) with nobody getting hurt/arrested.  Hell we had a dozen of 'em over 6 months at UT with almost no issue or disruption to campus life at all.  And finally, there are two parallel sets of protests going on, one about humanitarian violations in Gaza which is futile and annoying, but should be protected (college Presidents or Chancellors don't set IDF policy).  And then one about university divestitures from defense contractor investments.  

    Were I the students at UT right now, I'd differentiate myself from all the absurdity at all these other campuses.  Make it about the actual issue and not just a viral arrest video.  Our endowment's 'rails' are set by the Legislature and then implemented by UTIMCO.  You want to actually cast a light on the divestiture protest, be smart, be different.  Go march on the Capitol and on the UTIMCO HQ.  Because most of America thinks you're being crazy right now, and you're not.  But you are misguided and being stomped on and taken advantage of.  And most Americans, even those that went to college, don't understand how this all works.  Pen an article, do an interview, social media blast, and then physically march on these places.  "UT-Austin" doesn't sit down and stroke checks to Northrop each year to supply the IDF with baby-killing missiles but that seems to be what you think is happening.  Columbia University in NYC doesn't have a campus office that wires money to Lockheed to build bombers for the IAF. They have legally separated endowment managers/OCIO's that then deploy the money according to guardrails put in place by their Boards (privates) of Legislatures (publics) and then carried out in investment policy.  Now explaining that isn't as viral as getting pepper sprayed on tiktok, but that's how real world shit gets done.  That's why we have ESG investment parameters, why we put more into conscious capitalism investments, why there are states that mandate a certain percentage of alt.investments go into funds run by managers of color or women.  We worked on this a really long time because there are quality returns to be made while still doing some good, but know how it works and explain it to people instead of putting up tents and being annoying.

    He is a professional provocateur

    which i fucking said in my post, you fucking clown.

    For years you and Wildcat have literally accused him of making, "kill lists".  Put up or shut up.  Nothing has happened to any of your leftist buddies because Ngo is taking their picture and publishing their arrest photos.  Although the leftists did get the Portland to stop providing  mugshots to the media for a while.

     

    fucking clownworld.

    from the article

    Quote

     but the charge and defendant were dismissed from the case after it was determined the group isn’t an organized legal entity subject to being sued.

    Quote

    With three named defendants defaulting in the case, and one settling out of court, a jury found the two remaining defendants, John Hacker and Elizabeth Richter, not liable for the attacks on Ngo. 

     

    The case was dismissed because the court ruled you can't sue "Antifa".  which I will leave to the lawyers to discuss.

     

    3 name assailants didn't show up, with no legal consequence.

    1 settled with Ngo.

    2 found not liable.

     

    So not exactly a vindication of the people who are on video chasing and assaulting Ngo.

    *says he doesn’t follow any political stuff on Twitter”

    *posts tweets from a nazi agitator who makes kill lists for atomwaffen*

    You’ve been fucking this chicken for years.  Provide any evidence of left wing protesters being physically harmed outside of street rumbles that have zero to do with their identity being disclosed or stfu.

    Ngo is an attention horse weasel who doxes leftist protesters who would greatly prefer to not have their identity known.  They have literally attempted to kill Ngo over it multiple times.

  6. Looks like UCLA devolved into physical violence between protesters and counter-protesters.

    yes, yes I am sure side A or B was absolutely in the wrong in this confrontation because of (protest ‘24 madlib) _________ zionism  _______  genocide  ________  masks________ sex tents.
