I’m rooting for the protesters
The Aspen Beat ^ | April 29, 2024 | Glenn K, Beaton

At places we used to call institutions of higher learning, ignorant kids who don’t know any better and their ignorant professors who should, but also don’t, are trespassing in support of the raping, beheading, kidnapping, burning alive hostage takers of Hamas.

It’s a revolting scene. Even in Nazi Germany they tried to hide their atrocities. In contrast, Hamas posts them on the internet, and their sympathizers at American universities embrace both the terrorists and their terror like the latest hula hoop fad. (Watch out, trannies, you’re so-o-o-o 2023. And watch out, BLM, you’re so-o-o-o 2021.)

Much as these terror-sympathizers disgust me, and much as I’m rooting against the terrorists with whom they sympathize, and much as I’m rooting for the Israelis in their existential struggle to survive, I hope the university protests continue.

Here’s why.

Because the protests are revealing the rot in American universities. The system that used to be the envy of the world – the best and brightest everywhere came here to learn – has strangled under the stultifying, anti-intellectual yoke of DEI, wokeism, anti-merit, one-party rule that is delivered by greedy, wasteful, heavy-handed, over-numerous, group-thinking bureaucrats.

College tuition has gone up at double the rate of inflation for as long as I can remember. Students pay far more than ever before, even after adjusting for inflation, and get far less. At Columbia, tuition alone is $67,000 a year. Nobody gets charged the sticker price, of course, except the Jews.

American parents and their kids can now plainly see what many of us have known for years. Unless you want to be a doctor or lawyer, college is a monumental waste of time and money. It’s a scam.

I’ve called the Democrats’ supporters the Frankenstein coalition for good reason. They don’t belong together. Several of them hate each other, and were always going to turn on each other eventually.

Jews and Trannies and Feminazis are all diametrically opposed to Muslims. Yet the Democrats absolutely need Muslim votes or they’re toast in Michigan and this will hurt them with young hardcore Leftists who are all in on hating the West, Israel which is a part of it and of course, Jews.

Somehow the Trannies and other Alphabet people are so stupid and insane as to go along with the Muslims even though they themselves would be thrown off the nearest tall building if they ever went somewhere where Muslims are in charge.

Feminazis have been strangely silent just like they went silent when Trannies started invading women’s spaces.

Jews don’t have the luxury of going silent and keeping their heads down like the Feminazis though. They are target numero uno. Thanks to valuing education and having a work ethic, there are a lot of Jews in influential positions and many with a great deal of money....so much so that they provide half of all the donations to Democrats and much of the Democrat leadership. They actually have functioning brains you see so this puts them several steps ahead of a lot of the rest of the Democrat base......

So.....what now donkeys? Kiss younger voters and Michigan goodbye OR cast the Jews and all their money as well as much of your own leadership goodbye. There is no squaring that circle. Which will it be?

Eric Holder, the godfather of Columbia terrorists, was armed when he occupied a Columbia building. Later he armed the Mexican cartel.

I’d wager that college/university grant funding revision is on Trump’s “TO-DO” list!

a bunch of empty buildings is no longer a university, regardless of the billions they might have in the bank ... they would no longer be in the business of poisoning the minds of our youth if there are no youthful minds to poison ...

These protests are also practice for a major protest at the DNC.
**********************************************************
If it’s practice it’s for the Republican convention in deep blue Milwaukee. Republican delegates getting to the convention center will be like lambs to the slaughter.

I know that the Republicans (especially the RINOs, neocons, and boomercons) absolutely have to:

1) Go all in for Israel cuz rapture, "whoever blesses yada yada...", etc.
2) Go all in for Law And Order

So this will make Republicans just as big a target as Dems. But if the Republicans would stop being stupid for once and let the Dems handle this, then only the Dems will have to worry about protests.
