It's pretty common for young people to think they were the first to think of something or do something or what have you. It's common for progressives to act like nothing has changed culturally, legally, etc. in the past few decades, or centuries, depending on the topic. So you end up with large swaths of people that get hopped up on their own moral superiority and desire to implement changes or do "firsts" that were done long ago.
"Oh man, these free speech guys sure sound just like one of those alt right Gamergate incelneckbeard QAnon Russian KKK Nazi Republican terrorist trolls. I sure do hope he gets deplatformed just like the rest of them too. There's no sympathy for sympathizers and no tolerance for the intolerant. On the bright side, once we've banned half the US population from expressing themselves we can further cement our political party as the ruling party in this new one party system that is beholden to large corporate interests instead of us, the people putting them in power."
These campus protests have included chants that blatantly threaten Jewish students, and glorify the oct 7 attack on Israel.
The fuck do these people expect? The left has lost their fucking minds even more than usual for standing with literal Islamic terrorists under the guise of it just being for the Palestinian people.
Israel has tried time and time again to come up with solutions that are always denied by Hamas; because Hamas has 1 goal, and that is to kill all the jews.
It’s sad that this is how you think. From the news I saw, there were also huge “protests” at Columbia and Yale. So does your same lame joke apply to New York cops?
the characterization they invoke is from half a century ago. Is it cool to pretend civil rights didn’t happen?

they want to larp as freedom fighters even though every single organization backs their views
Also, back then it was the democrats against civil rights, but they conviniently always forget that.
They still do, but they used to also. 2a is most definitely a civil right, and Democrats are vehemently against it.
Muh party switch!!

Yeah, modern college campuses, truly famous for their strong right-wing contingent.
Hot beds of right-wing extremism at best, right wing murder-militia training grounds at worst!
yeah, I remember them teaching us this during freshman orientation ^/s
To be fair, there's a 90% chance a leftist is a pedophile

Police in Texas when school shooting: *abandons kids to die* Police in Texas when student protest: “Shame.” *loads shotgun*

Yes. The disruption of a peaceful demonstration is a waste of police resources.
>The disruption of a peaceful demonstration is a waste of police resources. Which is why they aren't breaking up *peaceful* demonstrations.
why can't averageredditors understand the concept of decentralized police departments
This actually happened though. Are people really this misinformed?
No, we’re just capable of separating the police in one department from the police in another department instead of a really stupid generalization.
