"People acting within systems of power—especially elite institutions—must practice empathy. Empathy is not a land recognition. Empathy is not placing race riots in admissions packets. Empathy is not continuing the haunt. Empathy is likely not profitable. Empathy will hurt..."

was going to say something insightful and then I saw that the comments were either
1) support for Mamdani or
2) anti-Islam
at least he actually cares about the constitution and isn't wiping his ass with it
Not enough people are talking about this. My village and a few others were officially annexed this Saturday, now a part of “Israel,” Palestinians living there no longer have a Palestinian ID number and need a permit to live and travel on their land, and it can be revoked anytime.
"stop fighting" after he has been punched multiple times in the face with an already limp body by several officers pulling him out of the car for no real reason
all this over an alleged headlight violation

unrelated to op but comments like this piss me off for so many reasons, but one blatant reason?
I was sexually assaulted in Jersey City two weeks ago walking my dogs at 5PM on a Friday.
violence against women happens everywhere, stop pretending to care to justify your hate
@SuppressedNws He's holding a Palestinian flag while his own country is being taken over by Muslim invaders.
I hope he like the idea of his countrywomen being raped and molested on the street in broad daylight. What a fucking cuck. Makes me sick.
finally checked my grades from the winter term (I was extremely depressed and did not complete the final assignments or go to classes)
got an A and an A-...
been too anxious to look at these grades for six months 😭
Mahmoud Khalil named two people who obsessively stalk, harass, and slander anti-genocide students at Columbia, both of whom are given near-total license to act with impunity and whose bigoted harassment have gone intently ignored by the admin: David Lederer and Shai Davidai.
Columbia proudly called itself an "ICE sanctuary campus" under Trump’s first term, but now it colludes with ICE to disappear Mahmoud Khalil. This isn’t just hypocrisy—our universities have always pledged allegiance to the ruling class, with Zionism as a core tenet.
this also shows how unphased students are by everything; admin talks about all these as unfair disruptions but there are over a dozen other libraries to study at and people obviously do not give a damn
many students at columbia were playing football in front of the butler library lawn like nothing was happening, or mattered, as their classmates were being held hostage, brutalized by public safety, and arrested by the NYPD. the apathy is so jarring
Trump is trying to deport a Columbia Univ. student who has been a permanent resident in the U.S. since she was 7.
Her "crime”?
Attending a protest against the war in Gaza.
No, Mr. President. This is a democracy. You can't exile political dissidents. Not in the United States.
Over ten Columbia University public safety officers place a student into a chokehold, tackling him to the ground. He was screaming from pain and was denied medical attention. Public safety officers surrounded a Jewish student, forming a physical barrier to prevent recording.
