With the greenlight of Columbia President Minouche Shafik and her administration, NYPD has entered Hind Hall through the windows and begun to mass arrest students inside. Let this be remembered as Columbia and Shafik’s legacy: one of mobilizing the violence and terror of the state against their own students and faculty, solely to prevent an end to Columbia’s complicity in a genocide.

    I have been trying to verbalise this for a while. Thank you for this comment, it’s a perfect explanation and precisely encapsulates how I feel about these protests.

    I agree with their intention, but they’re not actually helping their cause.

      Sometimes it’s better to remain silent and let people think you are a fool than to speak your mind and remove all doubt.

        You don’t seem to understand the nuance of the situation; are you interpreting my comment as meaning that I don’t support Palestine?

        I think you may need to re-read the initial comment that I replied to.

          I’m interpreting your comment as meaning you agree with the person you responded to, who entirely mischaracterized the protests and the protestors and painted a picture that can only be described as lying.

            I don’t think that the comment I replied to was really doing that. I’m on mobile so I can’t check right now

        If I’m a random stranger, how do you know what I’ve done or not done?

          I know because of what you type on the internet, it lays bare who you really are. That’s why it’s so easy for me to know you did fuckall for Palestine.
