Young students protesting their institutions' investment portfolio that enables mass murders endure state violence, oppression, assaults, suspensions, and death threats. Fascism has already arrived, and the boot on the neck will tighten.
Jewish Voice for Peace contributed to or organized the protests, and an over-representation of Jewish students were arrested, yet Columbia is concerned with anti-semitism. The adults are cowards.
Germany has restored its fascist past, banning the public from speaking in foreign languages (excluding English) and violently arresting people. The police harassed and followed Irish nationals for hours for speaking Irish, and who knows how they treat Arabic speakers.
The disciplined student activists kept outside agitators from co-opting the movement, and the media searched for a narrative to justify police brutality, choosing to use provocateurs.
Welcome to American fascism.
