Their real concern is that young people awakened by the Gazan genocide will, over the next fifty years of their lives, further inform themselves about the political force that has, for decades, controlled much of American domestic and foreign policies, and about how harmful such policies have been to average Americans.
Very moving to listen to this man talk about the Pro-Palestine marches on campuses across America and how he supports and joins them. Thank you for sharing the link. He knows what genocide looks like, he’s experienced it and I applaud all of these Holocaust survivors for being part of the Pro-Palestine Movement.
Absolutely. I refuse to grade pieces of shit. Or choose which child molester to chaperone the birthday sleepover. "You gotta choose X because he only molested five children while Y molested six!"
Or at least knocking on the door. It's up to us to double-lock the door by denouncing a century of anti-socialist lies. We need more real info on the lives of people behind the so-called Iron Curtain. I can help.
Just suck on that for a minute -- feel the number of tentacles that Zionist (racist/apartheid) society has inserted into the blood vessels of this society, already primed with its history and proclivities of racism/apartheid. As a biologist, I'd be compelled to think parasitism (or a new category of sick symbiosis - mutualist parasitism). And I'm, of course bloody sickened by it; we all are - nature of the illness.
I assume you're not suggesting parasitism literally, meaning, not something new (organic? - not sure of terminology) that infected the humanity.
I tend to think humans have always been like that, but the internet enabling both information availability as well as mechanisms of reaching humans in order to manipulate them - that is, two-way effects - just illuminated for those paying attention what humans can be turned into in practice.
And I'm not surprised at all, as historically it's looked like that always. Just mentally scaling up stimuli applied via the new technological means could help with a possible picture. Interpolation, really.
Recently I ran into this series "Oxford Pamphlets on World Affairs" and one of the authors there is R. C. K. Ensor with two succinct titles re Hitler and his "Mein Kampf". Written in 1939. Great distillation of Hitler's approaches and methods, about 30 pages each. They help with imagining what he could have achieved if he had technological means of today. Also illustrating how what he did is being practiced today by the empire and its minions.
I spent a lot of time in Ann Arbor during the 60s and 70s when my brother attended university there. At the time, it was considered the second most radical university in the country, after Berkeley, I believe.
The outrage was palpable.
I read up on the current protests occurring there presently; so far, there have only been a few trespassing tickets issued.
I’m not a big fan of U of M. It’s rife with intellectual snobbery and everyone I know who attended suffered from ulcers during their time there. My brother said that they were horrible to the medical students. But I do admire the students’ propensity to stand up for what’s right.
Agreed. For me and my middle aged lot, Iraq opened my (our) eyes to the farce with the lying pieces of excrement Blair and Bush Jnr on about weapons of mass destruction; before and after that, events just compounded my view. Then how they mocked us by making Blair - "The Middle East Peace Envoy" and later Obama - "The Noble Peace Prize".... you cannot make this sh1t up.
PS Do not even start me off about the economy, great reset and Covid....
One of the things which is so blatant to me is the United Kingdom of the GREAT British Empire is that having failed in their Hegemony, immediately tied themselves to the great United States.
As the Chinese keep saying: This saving face.
I am a child who was born after the British empire imploded. MY Father was a British facist. He could NOT understand that maybe Sri Lanka could run it's own country without the help from the British.
So what did the English do after losing Sri Lanka and India?
They put in place English people to run every part of the Govt. The Indians and Sri Lankans did not want this BUT still the British Empire was in charge.
It took years before India and Sri Lanka told them to get out.
How to get the US out of countries? It will take years.
Niger has started this BUT in Iraq (even though the people have said Get out) the Americans stay!
I want to talk about Leonard Woolf (and I suggest everyone who wants to understand Empires read this).
Leonard Woolf went out to Sri Lanka as a British servant. He went to many places in Sri Lanka and watched/learned what the British were doing. Eventually he was the first person who decried British rule and started Sri Lankan Independence.
Meanwhile his AWFUL wife Virginia (who you Americans think is Amazing) kept telling Leonard (her husband) to get these 'awful brown people out of her house.'
Leonard was the first person who managed to get 'brown people' into Queen Victorias court and she welcomed them with open arms.
She eventually tried wearing Indian/Sri Lankan saris.
I have one of the first books Leonard wrote about 'government by the British in Sri Lanka. It is a book about Empires.
IN my head: I have read Vriginia Woolf but knowing her history I loathe and detest her.
Russia, China and Iran must have superpowers akin to psychic mind control.
So, why isn't Stoli the best selling beverage in the land? Why doesn't Iran use its Pied Piper-like powers to get a friendly congress elected? Why aren't students clamoring for the more dutiful study of Confucius and wearing the robes of Confucian scholars or Mao jackets or whatever?
Or it could be that the russiagate conspiracy theory was asinine on its face, but plenty of people still take it as an article of faith, so why not try it again and see if it works? Besides, nothing like a little class conflict...
Clearly the educational system has broken down if students are so weak minded that they cannot see for themselves the horribleness of what Israel is doing and they need China, Russia and Iran to push them along.
it is sarcasm. meaning that students must not be being taught any critical thinking skills if they need China, Russia and Iran to push them to protest.
That’s it exactly. These people won’t admit that the demonstrations are a direct result of the Gazan genocide and have nothing to do with Russia, China, antisemitism or any other excuse they can throw at it. That Netanyahu has the nerve to lecture America how to treat protesters is the height of arrogance. What would make you happy, BiBi? Mass graves? Carpet bombing? Starvation?
That type of thinking, on the part of TPTB, has radically transformed, to the point of near rehabilitating the entire idea of "Good Germans." I don't think they have a clue how counterproductive they are, to their own interests, by their statements and actions.
I'm a 66 year old with no connections to a university since I dropped out in 1978 to play bass in a punk rock band. I never use tiktok, Instagram, or even Facebook (though I do wander into Substack and a few other places occasionally). I get most of my news from legacy media and "serious" websites...
Does that explain why genocide horrifies me? Or why, if my body were not so vulnerable, I'd be looking for the nearest group of "brainwashed university students" and asking them if they'd mind if I joined in?
Notwithstanding "America is a golden calf and we will suck it dry, chop it up, and sell it off piece by piece until there's nothing left" - we can't have the kids of boomer 'Greatest Ally' lovers not loving Greatest Ally.
The crackdown smells exactly like the Obama coordinated crackdown on the Occupy Wall Street movement: A simultaneous nationwide series of local police violent evictions and arrests.
It does, except that Obama didn't move for months. When Netanyahu said "Frog," Biden, corporate university CEOs(I remember when they had "deans"), and state governors said "How high?"
Why did Genocide Ben & Joe croak when they did? To distract attention from the coming slaughter in Rafah. It's as obvious as observing that the sun usually rises in the east.
Damn I wish I could find a video that had been shared. A fairly young TikTok dude went through the data points. He proved beyond a shadow of a doubt how they were shadow banning Pro Palestinian hashtags. He has a lot of followers and they all knew banning TT had ZERO to do with Chinese Propaganda.
It’s ok to use those platforms to mindfuck the masses. It’s not ok for them to be used to spread an unapproved message. It’s seems to be particularly incendiary when a certain group of people are exposed and called out.
I find it heartwarming that before they could ban TT these massive protests erupted. The youth got out in front it seems. 👍
The fact that genocide is morally repugnant to most human beings isn't a good enough reason for the demonstrations at universities and all over the world?
No, it must be Russia, China, Hamas or some other group that's encouraging these protests.
I guess people are supposed to be OK with Israel's genocide of Gaza and the USA and other western nations funding and arming Israel.
I wondered why I have been feeling so depressed and repulsed by Israel burying little children alive....genocide, mass graves, war crimes and destruction are actually not so bad at all! Damn you Putin, for nearly leading me astray!
Yes, the Deep State is under a relatively minor attack. However, the fact that they are reacting irrationally demonstrates their determination to stay in power. As I have said they are playing for all the marbles. The Deep State is an organization of very dangerous people, sociopaths for sure, but avaricious megalomaniacs who will do anything to stay in power. Over sixty years ago, they blew a United States President's brains out in public.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain over there. No, look over here instead. Pay no attention to these mass graves with the people in them, some of them children, with hands tied behind their backs. Oh no better look over here at these peaceful protests that are causing such a ruckus in our country. We can’t support ending the genocide, no that’s “antisemitism”. 😢🇵🇸
When I see mold growing in the corners of my shower, a bleach solution does the trick. I sometimes wonder if there might be an equivalent purgative for US politician dumb asses -- so many who are akin to fungi, as they seem to entirely lack functional nervous systems and thrive on slimy waste. The word "think" in any standard context does not apply to these fools.
Magic organisms, perhaps, capable of existence as free-living saprophyte decomposers and also as parasites. Usually in biology, an organism lives one way or the other (some fungi -- bread mold) decompose, others (ringworm) parasitize, never both for same organism. But our politicians may be such versatile scumbags that they're capable of both lifestyles in their infinite capacity to defraud us, their "constituents" [HA].
"... you never say what you actually do ..." - that's not entirely accurate. Our Visiting Napoleon Realist addressed that recently, close quote: "I came up with the strategy, now you must come up with tactics". His strategy being "destroy the deep state".
Their real concern is that young people awakened by the Gazan genocide will, over the next fifty years of their lives, further inform themselves about the political force that has, for decades, controlled much of American domestic and foreign policies, and about how harmful such policies have been to average Americans.

Features numerous examples of cops going wild. But remember, kids, we have to vote for Halfwit Joe because Trump is a fascist!
I am no Trumper, far from it, but fascism is already here.

I saw. I salute him.
Marek Edelman, the only commander of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, said similar things while he was alive.
And here is Nam veteran.

No they don' have to vote for genocide Joe at all, Jill is running, and RFK, Jr, but he's bad on Gaza so far too.
Absolutely. I refuse to grade pieces of shit. Or choose which child molester to chaperone the birthday sleepover. "You gotta choose X because he only molested five children while Y molested six!"
Like voting whether to be hanged or shot. Right answer is NO.
Zackly.
NO to RFK

Look into where they were all trained - same as UK and EU.
I do not understand this comment? Please do us all a favour and write succintly!
Jenny, you seem to not understand quite a few comments right now - maybe it's bed time in France?

Thanks, exactly what I meant.
Lets just hope they don't go completely nuts and start killing people like they did at Kent State in 1970.
If they start murdering the children of their big donors, their days are numbered. If these were poor kids, they'd probably be dead already.
Given the current autocratic, pro-war atmosphere, and the murderous behavior of police today, I fear this lies just around the corner.
They will, Susan. It’s inevitable.
This is Vietnam war protests redux.

Agreed.

Clearly the educational system has broken down if students are so weak minded that they cannot see for themselves the horribleness of what Israel is doing and they need China, Russia and Iran to push them along.
I do not understand this comment Susan?
it is sarcasm. meaning that students must not be being taught any critical thinking skills if they need China, Russia and Iran to push them to protest.
Stir up the people and blame Govts. mess on Russia/China and Iran.
Because nobody ever would oppose genocide unless they were tricked, see?
That’s it exactly. These people won’t admit that the demonstrations are a direct result of the Gazan genocide and have nothing to do with Russia, China, antisemitism or any other excuse they can throw at it. That Netanyahu has the nerve to lecture America how to treat protesters is the height of arrogance. What would make you happy, BiBi? Mass graves? Carpet bombing? Starvation?

Well said, sir 👍
It's very much the usual hypocritical hysteria. Those “campus proxies” of Iran, China, Russia!!! Never mind AIPAC or CIA plants, of course.
Strange I NEVER hear anything from Russia, China or Iran they obviously have telepathic mind control of the planet
I'm still waiting for my "check" from Russia for being a protester. I wonder if I'll get the full amount with interest? Hmm....
You never do because that's how tricky they are.
The colonization is not working as planned. They said the same thing during the Vietnam and civil rights protest era.
Notwithstanding "America is a golden calf and we will suck it dry, chop it up, and sell it off piece by piece until there's nothing left" - we can't have the kids of boomer 'Greatest Ally' lovers not loving Greatest Ally.
That could risk derailing the chop up.

People can't just decide that burning and starving children to death is abhorrent.
No! Somebody is poisoning their minds with Propaganda, which must be stopped immediately!
:-o
In their eyes we are all just DUMB!
Unfortunately true so many are just dumb enough to believe US/UK propaganda
Or we are as amoral/immoral as the "freaks" in power are, or so they assume.

As Chris Hedges points out (https://chrishedges.substack.com/p/revolt-in-the-universities?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=778851&post_id=144010440&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=false&r=2e3vz8&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email), not one university president has condemned the Israeli destruction of every university in Palestine. What the universities (and by extension, the private equity firms putting us in endless debt slavery) are really afraid of is that young people will see that a university education is not worth it, nor are the bullsh!t jobs students are being educated for. The veil is off. Who are you going to believe, Nancy Pelosi or Aaron Bushnell? We will honor our martyrs.
Definitely Aaron Bushnell, may he rest in peace.
We should always honor Aaron Bushnell.

Duh! Thank you, Napoleon.
What do these madmen really think about the American people?
It must be that they think they are just dumb asses and need to be told what to think.
Carry on with your inane agenda we are not hearing your false fictions nor are we dumb.

"What do these madmen really think about the American people?"
That should be obvious.
"It must be that they think they are just dumb asses and need to be told what to think."
They do, and so far they are right...the populace does nothing.
you are always talking about how everyone else does nothing, but you never say what you actually do about what is happening. What DO you do?????
"... you never say what you actually do ..." - that's not entirely accurate. Our Visiting Napoleon Realist addressed that recently, close quote: "I came up with the strategy, now you must come up with tactics". His strategy being "destroy the deep state".
Such is our Realist "The Napoleon".
