@GoodMorningPeeps: Lol ok.

no offense but that’s a weird thing to say. you weren’t taking a moral stance when you chose UVA

@AmazingCicada: Bizarre take.
AmazingCicada
19:30
Actually I chose UVA even though I got a higher scholarship amount from Columbia because of how Columbia treated their students even before yesterday's event.

I'm not going to spend a single cent on an administration that decides to punish their own students for peacefully protesting.

Also, I went to Barnard for my undergrad

@AmazingCicada: Yay another UVA! :) Can't wait to see you on campus

@babybunny: It didn't seem weird at all to me.

i guess I just think you can and should support the protestors without making it about yourself and your righteous choice

I think a lot of this hate against Columbia is super unwarranted anyway.

If you want to engage in civil disobedience, which these protests are (they violate university rules and policies), then you have to accept the consequence. Not to equate the two situatinos, but Rosa Parks was a hero and was arrest-- she knew she was going to be arrested! It was her intent to draw attention to injustice. A lotttt of Ivy League kids with immense priviledge seem to think they are entitled to make a statement without facing any consequence, when in the past, civil rights leaders bravely chose to face the consequences to draw more attention to their cause.

Nowadays everybody wants to be a part of a movement it seems...without any understanding of what kind of self sacrifice it entails I guess
Ijustwannagetinman

Anyways, I don't support the camping on campus anyway. It makes other students feel unsafe

every time one of these dumbasses comes on here and says you should expect to be punished for civil disobedience I die a little bit inside
Ijustwannagetinman
19:50
You should anticipate being punished for breaking rules and laws, yes.
Ijustwannagetinman

It shouldn't shock ya

is the lsd law checker based on the lawhub one

The point of civil disobedience is not so you can say "Ah well, I was arrested for opposing a good and moral policy, that's fair play" lol
20:45
Yes, you probably need to push the envelope enough that it has consequences in order to draw attention and press coverage, doesn't mean you can't criticize arrests in defense of a policy you oppose

I mean if it is civil disobedience it depends on whether you agree with it. If you think the cause is just then the punishment is by definition unjust. The core of civil disobedience is that the punishment is unjust.

If you disagree with the cause then you just think they’re assholes breaking the law to inconvenience people
like the SF DA telling people who were stuck on the GG bridge to come forward as they may have been "wrongfully imprisoned"

I just hate any protest that blocks the road
thats the point tbh
FranticSpiffySwallow
21:16
like set up a tent on some campus cool, but don't stop people from getting to work
Ijustwannagetinman
21:17
Not just work. Blocking roads prevents people from getting to hospitals, from getting to parole hearings, from picking their child up from school... a lot of unintended consequences that can have seriously negative impacts
"hmmmm today i will obstruct the flow of emergency vehicles to prove a point. Why are people mad at me?"

@Ijustwannagetinman: Have you been to our campus? I go here and saw the students firsthand. The camp lawns were literally designated as spaces for student protests and mass gatherings. People have sat there, picnicked there, and historically have protested there. It is literally a space designed for communal activity. Arrests on a scale like yesterday have NEVER happened since 1968's anti-Vietnam War protests, which ironically have been glorified AFTER the protests happened and Columbia made it all about their institution's valuable history and evidence that they are devoted to "free speech and expression." Even the NYPD explicitly stated that all the protestors were peaceful and there was zero reported violence or injuries from the protests whatsoever. The arrests were so meaningless but were ordered by the President after her hearing by Republicans who literally used the BIBLE as justification for condemning anti-Israel protests. This was not like “Oh I wanna break some rules today be

honestly seeing these people get dragged out the street is so satisfying
