The left has had a disgusting soft spot for muslim terrorism throughout my entire lifetime. I don't get it.

Like I said, the Bush years created a huge sense of guilt in the population and then add in the fact that Bush was followed by a president who made it seem like saying the phrase "Radical Islamic Terrorism" was Islamophobic and always tried to play the "we should be understanding of why these people think this way" led up to this.

Uh, you guys do realize that in Islam you can become a martyr in more ways than simply just dying in combat right?

Look at the other two images

Uhhhh what the hell??


Biden should enforce this law:

Quote
Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, aliens who are inadmissible under the following paragraphs are ineligible to receive visas and ineligible to be admitted to the United States:

Quote
Any alien who-

(VII) endorses or espouses terrorist activity or persuades others to endorse or espouse terrorist activity or support a terrorist organization;

 is inadmissible. An alien who is an officer, official, representative, or spokesman of the Palestine Liberation Organization is considered, for purposes of this chapter, to be engaged in a terrorist activity.

This is going to sound stupid but a large chunk of this is TikTok. College kids are getting absolutely inundated with one sided content and it's turning them into extremists. I don't mean to sound like Tipper Gore or anything but it's apparent a lot of these kids are just regurgitating what they're hearing in their feeds.
Yep, all they see on TikTok about Israel-Palestine is that Israel is "more racist and fascist than even Nazi Germany!" and that Palestinians are "being exterminated en masse by the IDF".

Just completely exaggerating or outright lying and ignoring nuance about such a complex conflict.

No surprise given the CCP like Russia is sympathetic to Hamas . Hopefully the bill to ban TikTok passes soon cause it’s so obviously CCP propaganda

What the hell is happening in America?



Academia is overdue for a reckoning and yes they need to be forced to bend their knee . Some stuff that can be done

1. Cut of all funding to university programs that promote this type of nonsense in the classroom and in research

2. Make it clear that super low Admin-Student ratio is unacceptable and they will lose funding if they don’t reduce their admin staff . You can also ban dei as that would force them to reduce their admin staff too

3. Schools/programs that funds or recognizes organizations should have their funding cut

4. Enforce immigration laws and cancel student visas of international students who went to these pro Hamas protests

5. Obviously expel students who behave in this deplorable manner


If this doenst work then simply only fund degree programs that are actually useful in the job market . So no student loans or scholarships for degrees that don’t fit in that criteria

This is extremely authoritarian. It makes sense why you support DeSantis. Lucky for everybody else, America isn't a fascist dystopia (yet) and your policies will not be enacted.

The way academia has been behaving the past Month is a complete mask off moment and yes hopefully every red state governor implements these proposals . Doing so would bring such a needed reckoning and as you can see in this thread , it’s getting support from many liberals like Leif , Mongoose , S019 , Frodo as well so the fact is academia is losing the support they had from liberals too cause this was yes a mask off moment .

When mask off moments happen, it causes reckonings because that yes causes institutions to lose the trust they once had and yes if you are an institution that relies on taxpayer funding then yes that is important.

Some of us have been raising the alarm on this for years, just saying...

“If universities don’t get a blank check from taxpayers , it’s a violation of academic freedom” . The level of entitlement was gross and that type of entitlement should have brought a reckoning long before things got this bad but no having taxpayers subsidize university departments that literally do nothing to advance students careers (like ethnic and gender studies) was essential in maintaining academic freedom .

This argument was always beyond ridiculous and red state governors should start passing reforms changing this and should do it now . Youngkin should have also run the Virginia midterms on getting enough support to get these reforms passed as well but sadly decided not too.

Yale’s Ballet Folklorico club “accidentally” solicited donations for Hamas-linked militant groups, as these people increasingly move beyond parody…


Can’t they face criminal consequences for that , or at the very least major civil consequences
