I remember when the Democrats brought down the hammer hard on anti-genocide protestors in universities. Trump is doing the same, but expanding it to all protests.
May 10, 2024 Map: Where university protesters have been arrested across the United States
Did they use guns and kill people? Because that is what trump will be ordering - Kent state style
Trump is worse I never said otherwise. My point isn’t that Republicans aren’t worse, but that the Democrats failed to live up to expectations of their constituents and helped lead us down this path.
they also allowed russia to back these protests, wierdly nobody actually came out with the news over this after the initial invasion of gaza(it was reported early on the protests on campuses were heavily backed by RU and anti-palestine jewish groups, one famous one is Seinfelds wife.
Just admit you just want to crush protests you don't like just like trump does. Blue conservatives.
Killing protesters is too visible and often sparks outrage. Quietly deporting them or using behind-the-scenes methods to remove them is more discreet and allows the agenda to progress with less resistance.
