@AlliFlowers
Too many Americans believe that colleges are bastions of excellence whereas they've been corrupted by corporate money that it should be recognized by everyone that we shouldn't hold them up on pedestal.
I came to accept how utterly they lived up to my ideals after trying and failing to get the ones I worked on to acknowledge climate change is real. For the most part most of them took far too long to accept the clear science on it because it paid to deny it.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/lawyers-hunter-biden-plan-sue-fox-news-rcna149707 Lawyers for Hunter Biden plan to sue Fox News 'imminently'
A letter obtained by NBC News says action is pending because of Fox’s alleged "conspiracy and subsequent actions to defame Mr. Biden and paint him in a false light."
@purplepadma Wait - you get paid for doctoral studies?!
1A rights are superceded by the physical rights of others. IOW, your freedoms end where mine begin.

If #cnn , #msnbc and #foxcorporation spent half as much time reporting on the #hostages as they do #sympathy #terrorists extracting demands from everyone, we might have rescued the #hamas hostages by now.

The protestors might find a 1A reason for their complaint, but only the Jewish students can rightly claim discrimination just for being Jews.

@LindaCollins11 If only Hamas would agree to a cease-fire. If only Hamas actually had any hostages left to bargain with….

No, no, no. Comparing the campus protests in the 60’s and the campus protests today is like comparing apples and hedgehogs.
We protested the war in Vietnam because our country was boots on the ground. We lost friends, fathers, husbands, brothers, and sons.
The US is not involved in the war in Gaza. We have no vested interest. It is not our war. The students, particularly at #Columbia, are being incredibly selfish.

When corporations raise prices, why is it we blame workers fighting for wages high enough to pay their bills, but don't blame the CEOs taking home record millions in pay packages?
Just some of the wildlife we saw on our walk in Grand Cayman.

Columbia University on Monday began suspending pro-Palestinian activists who refused to dismantle a tent encampment on its New York City campus after the Ivy League school declared a stalemate in talks seeking to end the polarizing protest.

@CStamp Did your parents have any children who weren’t affected by anencephaly?
@blueemu You enjoy being a troll? Do you do it for fun, or does Russia pay you? The only lies and propaganda here are coming from you.
@CStamp The US has no boots on the ground. That is the difference between today’s protests and those of the 60’s.
Tell me about the friends and family you’ve lost?
@blueemu No. If you’re going to engage in the conversation, you need to make it personal. Here’s another hot tip for you - there is no genocide, except by Hamas.
