      Criticism of Israel is one thing, but calling for “Oct 7th every day”, calling for religious war, openly backing not just Palestine but Hamas, saying Hamas I love your rockets isn’t a criticism of Israel, is an endorsement of Hamas.

        Ah right, and here I thought the point of the protest was calling for peace. Silly me!

        Sure, and is that what they voted to criminalize? Or was it actually just criticism of the state of Israel?

          Nah that bill is pretty bunk and hopefully it gets thrown out super quick. My point is more that the things advocated for in these protests are pretty vile and heartless.

    A lot has happened in the few days since this article was published, and is still happening.

    Columbia University’s board is facing new pressure from a group of House Democrats to “act decisively”

    In short, they did. Students and faculty are not happy right now.
