Watching the idiocy on college campuses this week and seeing all the explanations for protests in favor of murderous Hamas, two tweets seem particularly on point. There’s the great David Burge (Iowahawk) who calls these outbursts “Hamas slumber parties,” and says “This is like staging a pro-Nazi lunch counter sit-in and getting mad that people won’t treat you like you’re a modern-day Rosa Parks.” He attributes protests for the Intifada and slogans reading “from the River to the Sea” by numbskulls who have admittedly no idea what they are protesting as the result of baby-proofing houses

The separation of consequences and actions defines the later 20th century and the start of the 21st.
Think of it beginning with the birth control pill and feminism.
Womb to the tomb government care.
Welfare for the unwed and the reliance upon the schools to teach what was once taught in the home.
There are no men to stand up to the bullies because we haven't raised men,we have raised overgrown infants obsessed with who and what they do with their genitalia.

Shut down the money and watch how fast this $hit ends. Unfortunately, it won't happen because the democrats are directly linked to these NGO's. Good information to know.

Parents have been "standing down" for at least four generations in our society.
This is the result of the letting the children run the house. They don't respect authority. They don't understand consequences. This has resulted in very poor reasoning skills.

Students have always been ripe for useful idiocy.

Outside of those being paid, the bulk are toddlers throwing a fit. They actually believe that what they're doing is noble not realizing that those in charge view them and treat them as useful idiots.

Babyproofing, training wheels, adult supervision of peewee sports and playtime, a band-aid for every scratch, bicycle helmets, daily ride to school, electronic babysitters, allowances, two-income families, single parents, unmarried parents, poor teachers, worthless education, time outs, unpunished backtalk, allowed temper tantrums. The last two generations of children have been treated as if they are more important than adults so now we have both parents and children who are spoiled rotten, entitled and contitioned to believe that they "deserve" this and that simply for being alive. You don't have to whip kids to show them that they are accountable and expected to act like ladies and gentlemen but this history of coddling and sheltering has created what we see at Columbia. It won't be corrected anytime soon.

Before he dies, George Soros needs to be brought up on Federal charges for Treason, Seditious Activities, and Lying on his applications for entry into and Citizenship of the United States. He needs to have his Citizenship revoked, all of his "Open Society" NGO's and other questionably funded anti-American organizations disbanded immediately with all recouped monies sent to our National Treasury to fund the national debt, which he has been responsble for increasing.
The organism does what has made the organism successful, and one thing Soros loves is making money by cratering a nation's currency, just like he did with the British Poind in the 70's. Before that he survived the occupation of Hungary in WWII by outting fellow Jews to the Nazis and taking all their belongings, before the SS showed up to do the same. He is evil personified.

The rule should be... FAFO. not gonna spell that out.
What we've had here is FA and the helicopter parent swoops in. Now, I believe that kids need extra protection these days from potential kidnappers and molestors (including elementary school teachers!) but kids have got to learn. I remember when my son was making a matchbox racer for Boy Scouts and I have him a chisel to shape the wood, explaining that no part of his body should be in front of the chisel blade. What did he do? Held the wood in front of the blade. Before I put a bandaid on the cut, I made him listen to me tell him what he had done wrong.
He does part time self employment work as a handyman now.

Lol, an unintended takeaway is, if the punks really want to show solidarity with Hamas, they’d cleanse the LGBTQ from among themselves in cruel ways. But that comes later, in practice.

Too many guardrails in the world, so that young people growing up don't really gasp that if they make poor choices they can be hurt or even killed. It used to be, for all of the history of mankind that if a person, young or old made a bad enough choice, he or she would be instantly out of the gene pool, and not pass on either the genetics for bad decision making or fail to teach his/her own children to be careful.
In our modern world, being a stupid, brainless fool, time after time has no serious consequences as "the system" protects the idiots from their idiocy. Bad idea, actually.

It wasn't my idea to have such stoopid things as "hate laws." But if you do have them on the books, then you must use them to prosecute college cream puffs calling for the murder of Jews and death to America, whether they understand their own veiled language or not.
Let them use their own ignorance as a defence.
