1. I thought you had to be smart to get into a university.

   FAFO

   1. No, your parents just have to be capable of shelling out $68,000 for a total cost for a year of about $90,000. You just need stupid, rich parents.

      1. The universities are stupid too for letting left wing radicalism get out of control in the first place.

         1. Yes, that’s what you get for a string of DEI hirings.

            1. … in an echo chamber isolated from the real world…

         2. ?? That’s a feature, not a bug.

            Ever met a “right wing academic” ?

            Rarer than Trudeau testicles.

2. As the author said, news flash: you ARE in your adult lives. You have the right to vote and you “demand” to be heard. Well guess what, the other adults are listening and don’t particularly like what they’re hearing, you raving anti-semitic neo-Nazis.

   1. +++

      Well said.

3. You see, real revolutionaries in history often suffered severe consequences for their rebellions, ranging from incarceration and exile, all the way to outright elimination.

   These LARPers are shocked when they suffer consequences for their stupid play-acting as wannabe revolutionaries.

4. I am 72 and I am “so” tired of stupid people! I have dealt with stupid people (who are often emotional bullies as well) all of my life. When someone starts complaining to me now, I respond with “Yes, it is too bad that you are stupid, I cannot help that!”

   1. There are far too many of them Big M

   2. But Momma … How could you expect any other reaction from adult children who have had their student loans “forgiven” ? These punks have been getting away with EVERYTHING for their entire short lives. They can shoplift without consequence, take “free” money from “the government” … so why shouldn’t they expect to get away with every other crime against society?

5. why not? i thought they wanted the notoriety? isnt that why they are there preening for the cameras?

6. If your life can be turned upside down for honking a horn…..

   What the hell did they expect?

7. Government should agree to let them off with a warning, and chemical castration; thereby ensuring that their stupid genes will not linger on in the population.

8. Yes, if they believe in their cause then they should be proud of their arrest record from the protest. If they’re embarrassed or worried now then they either know that the cause they are supporting is morally repugnant or they were ignorant of what they were supporting and just went to the protest because they’re stupid young adults. Either way they made the choice to be there and participate. Future employers need to know what kind of people they are hiring. Maybe employers will give the student protesters a break because of their age and immaturity, maybe they won’t. That’s the price you pay for being a rebel or “useful idiot”.

   Maybe they should talk to students who were expelled for standing up for their right to bodily autonomy and medical rights by refusing to be coerced into taking a covid shot. I bet those students aren’t embarrassed or worried about the stand they took as individuals, not simply joining a leftist trendy mob.

9. Looks like the Islamists have landed and all the warm and fuzzy locals can’t bring themselves to face reality.
   The locals are, for the most part, welcoming to a fault.
   That is very, in fact very nice, must add though it is also stupid.
   The life is made of all things, good and bad.
   The almighty let us choose.
   Vast majority will take the easy street as opposed to previous generations that took the life on and built the most magnificent civilization so far as one can tell.
   Recent generations are led by ideologues that went to school for a long time to learn how to spin words pleasing to the psyche to mold the students into irrational followers. The long time schooled use sophistry and fancy rhetoric to tell the young that you can get a free ride if you listen to them.
   Of course this will crash the civilization that we live in.
   Rather sad, though it is the way in the fullness of time.
   Wonder, is it the old age that make one to think this way?
   Is there something the young know about life the will make life good?

10. This is the new normal. With AI, the hiring practices will be changed forever. Human Resource people are using AI to scrape every bit of data on applicants. The data will unfortunately be all of the bad information and none of the good. For example, is someone was caught and convicted of a minor drug offence or a bar fight 40 years ago, that charge and fine will be completely visible through AI. But the pardon and removal of the official record of the crime 35 years ago will be absent with AI because of the pardon. Do the crime, do the time, but it doesn’t go away no matter how much you have repented and changed. Forever is a long time. The people in these ridiculous so called “Pro-Palestinian rallies” are set up for the big fall.

11. I thought those were the old normal rules.

    They don’t like rules.

12. How about to avoid expulsion and whatever fines imposed – no one is going to jail, unless assault is involved, they must watch the entirety of the film of Oct 7. that Israel provided for journalists? Seems to have changed Warren Kinsella’s tune.

13. Please. Getting busted for the Hamas shyte will help them as they are professional agitators.

14. Guess what, my little crybullies – y’all are 18 and over. Your decisions now ARE adult decisions.

    Life is tough. It’s even tougher when you’re an entitled, coddled, elitist who thinks the world revolves around you.

    Boo-hoo.
