If it's a game thread, you're watching it on DVR and still in the 1st quarter.  They've cleared it already.  Just kind of cleaning up now.

You should be able to assess the reality of what is taking place without deflecting to the deficient messaging of children that don't have fully formed brains. Bunch of y'all motherfuckers need Jesus for real. 

[YGIFS 19449]

Fair point, but wasn't Jesus from Palestine?  And slept most of the time in a tent, protesting oppressive regimes and preaching openly what he felt in his heart?  

Wait, I'm thinking of Cat Stevens.

I hate the social media era. This is likely true, but maybe not. It’s so easy to fake things and send them everywhere. Feels like we’re being whipped up into a frenzy for some unknown ends. I’m guessing this ends in some bill encroaching on free speech in some way.

I mean, this is the national protest thread, and they absolutely deserved to be ridiculed for their idiocy.  And they are doing WAY more harm for your cause than good.  There is pretty much zero national coverage of the actual conflict or Israel's conduct. Instead, these idiots hijacking college campuses will inevitably lead the morning news for the 3rd day in a row.

Ignore them. This is a grassroots, student-led organic protest. No pros whatsoever. Don’t spoil Ani’s fantasy.

I don't disagree with this. The media and the political powers are certainly happy for the distraction.

No doubt at all that a lot of posters here that would claim to be his followers would be cheering his arrest and the authorities coming in to crack skulls at Gethsemane if not for the happenstance of time and circumstances.

It wasn't taken in any way by myself certainly. Yes, I am against ethnic cleansing, and particularly ethnic cleansing armed and funded by my tax dollars. It's a shame I will have to live with on the day of judgement.

It would be interesting to see national polls on Israeli support from around the time the Jose Andres aid workers were killed to this week after this debacle.   I think there was some real momentum after that incident that has pretty much completely been overrun by the news cycle coverage of the student protests.  Columbia, not Gaza, is now the current face of this conflict in the U.S.  The kids that actually do understand WTF they are protesting are too dumb to realize their actions are counterproductive.

I think we need to be cautious with some of these Tweets, especially if they're not coming from actual journalists. For example, the reports from UCLA are that the cops had erected a barrier between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine protestors had been breached but it was unsure who broke through it first. The report also stated there were clashes between the two groups.

This short clip shows a girl who was hurt and people are trying to help her. We don't actually know how she was hurt, only that "Collin Rugg" says she was beaten up by a group. It might be true, but it might also be total bullshit that it happened in the way that Collin Rugg says it happened. Well, who the hell is Collin Rugg and why should we believe him?

Having never heard of him, I go to his Twitter page and see a long list of extremely lopsided and political tweets from a very conservative angle. He also claims to be the Co-Owner of Trending Politics and there's a fucking cybertruck on his profile page. I'm sorry, but at this point, you start to lose a lot of fucking credibility as a news source.

 

Let's take a visit to this "media personality's" website. It's a bunch of bullshit "articles" making a lot of very dubious claims. 

https://trendingpolitics.com/

 

So, please, let's try to stick with credible news sources or clips that fully show what's going on.

Never underestimate the ability of Palestinians and radical liberals to totally fuck things up and ruin any momentum they had.

I’ve got to stop doom scrolling here and trying to understand all you attorneys and history majors. I still have zero clue what you are talking about. I’m too young for this shit. I assume it is related to Ike talking about the military industrial complex. Why can’t you people be normal and dumb it down for dumbs like me?

you have the “we” like you’re going to go killing people who don’t believe like you. 
 

You’re a coward and dangerous person. And to call for killing these students should have you banned. And the piss beat out of you.

I don’t put much faith in polls, but anecdotally I can tell you that between my office and social group, these college takeover groups have royally fucked up that momentum. I realize that’s an indictment on my surroundings, but these are not what I would consider to be dumb people.

Fair enough. And I apologize. 
 

There’s just so much insta news from boots on the ground. But, I don’t understand the difference in sharing a biased Texas student Twitter or a Twitter post from a random person on another campus. I’m not accusing you of sharing student tweets, I don’t remember if you did or not.  And I’m not keeping tally’s

All of this. Critical thinking and vetting of sources matter.

Also, I know the world lives in the up to the second news cycle, but more times than not lots of extremely important critical details are completely overlooked in the first "take". 

I don't care to sift through 4 or 5th tier "source material" that hasn't even been vetted by a major (who all have their own agenda too)

No worries. Just a note of caution: There are a lot of bad-faith actors on Twitter and elsewhere. I personally try to vet sources before sharing from their accounts, though I've dumped Twitter in the last six months or so.
