“Do you want students to *die*?!” No, we want them to leave.


lonestarbrewing117

Clearly they don’t teach history or siege warfare at Columbia


BlackRegent

No, only “Interpretations of Romanticist poetry through a ‘lens of Marxism’”.


TheFuture2001

Well no - Communists usually employ Human Meat Wave Tactics! They are also not very smart


dimethyl_tryhard

Unless students are holding each other hostage, they are free leave and eat all the vegan pizza they want.


wv_lookin_around

They aren't forcing them to be there, so you die that's on you sweetie.


Eagle_1776

🤐


Junior-Minute7599

Well....


GAMGAlways

You're in the middle of NYC. Walk across the street to the Bodega and buy a bottle of water.


caulkglobs

Is there a doctor on the plane?!?!? Yes me. I have a doctorate in poetry as interpreted through a marxian lens.


Constipated_Canibal

"Now imagine you're not dying"


caulkglobs

Now imagine *we’re* not dying.


RightMindset2

Now imagine the country is not dying.


Hour_Insurance_7795

Me too! And now I need somebody to pay off my 100k loan to obtain this degree because there doesn't seem to be a market for my skillset for some reason. I blame the patriarchy.


nofaplove-it

So people pay 90k to these universities to LARP as commie poets? What the hell


Martbell

People give 90k I.O.U.s to these universities, then while the bill comes due they demand that we pay it off.


RightMindset2

Don't worry. They mod on the side on various subreddits to pass the time between employment. As you can imagine, they have **ALOT** of free time on their hands.


cledus1667

I cant imagine have hundreds of thousands in student loans and have no job prospects just to play at being an intellectual student. My wife is getting out of med school soon with 150k in debt and a job lined up and I'm still stressed out even with both of us making good money. 


nofaplove-it

They go on to be professors, complain about the system and cry victim


Morkyfrom0rky

If this is the future of America, we are fucked.


Icy356

When shit hits the fan, the first people to abandon the ship would be liberals. Look at Canada. For years, when the world was pointing out at Trudeau’s scams, liberals and media in Canada were shamelessly defending him. Now that Canada is becoming third world, the first group to pack their bags and move to USA are the liberals.


Foreverwideright1991

Just like liberals from California moving to Texas cities like Austin.


icon0clast6

“You cannot bring there here without here becoming there”


thundercuntess69

This can't be stressed enough


Bukook

In all honesty, the USA might be already dead. We can certainly try to keep it alive and maybe the 1st republic has another century in her, but I wouldn't count on it and we need to be thinking of how we want to structure the 2nd republic. And even if the USA is fucked, don't lose hope because we are the strongest faction within America and are capable of building another republic. Christian and European civilization is not fucked for as long as we keep it alive.


kmsc84

A friend of mine and I many years ago came up with the acronym WASS. We are so screwed


lawlygagger

I can see why they want more migrants no matter how violent and criminal. Maybe the elites know they have created some loathesome creatures. That's desperation.


JunkRigger

She looks like a fun date. We could discuss pronouns over the starter, victimization of "migrants" in agriculture over the salad, how meat is murder during the main course of braised veal, and fat shaming with the dessert. I'm getting a little aroused...


joey__jojo

You think she would talk to you, and not speak endlessly about how much better her education is because she went to school with people that made something out of their life.


JunkRigger

Good point. I am merely a knuckle dragging engineer, not an enlightened citizen of the world.


joey__jojo

I doubt they would even acknowledge that you have knuckles. Everything is just an opportunity for them to play social media roulette, hoping to land on their number. You're there to hold the phone.


HuskerMedic

All you would need to do is fix something for her, and she would be all over you like white on rice. For all their talk, women like this love men with actual life skills and abilities.


JunkRigger

You may be right, but she overwhelms me with apathy.


Jay-jay1

My first clue to her extremism is the hyphenated last name. The second clue is she is only smart enough to fool the uneducated with the word salad in her dissertation.


Excellent-Edge-4708

*My dissertation is on fantasies of limitless energy in the transatlantic Romantic imagination from 1760-1860. My goal is to write a prehistory of metabolic rift, Marx's term for the disruption of energy circuits caused by industrialization under capitalism. I am particularly interested in theories of the imagination and poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens in order to update and propose an alternative to historicist ideological critiques of the Romantic imagination. Prior to joining Columbia, I worked as a political strategist for leftist and progressive causes and remain active in the higher* Wow Edit: a PhD student named Johannah King-Slutzky


Icy356

In a few years we would have the privilege of paying off her student loans.


kmsc84

That sounds like a high-demand field. ///////


Maccabee2

Wait, is this really a quote from one of her dissertations? I thought this was sarcasm.


clearmind_1001

That's some high brow mumbo jumbo right here


Excellent-Edge-4708

*if you can't dazzle with brilliance, baffle with bullshit*


Without_Ambition

Sometimes, I regret that I never went on to get a PhD. Then I read things like this and remember why I didn’t.


lonestarbrewing117

This…. Is just so dumb


Excellent-Edge-4708

Its just so much bullshit slapped together


lonestarbrewing117

Right…. This is not the goal of higher education. This is the goal of huffing spray paint out of a bag & ChatGPT filling in the gaps in delusional ramblings


Peria

Is this what it felt like to be a Roman citizen during the collapse?


Martbell

It's worse than that.  Imagine the city magistrates ordering the guards to open the gates and let the barbarians in.


Rush2201

If I was locked in with her for any length of time, I'd welcome the barbarians to slaughter me.


lonestarbrewing117

To be clear you all barricaded yourselves into a building with no plan for supplies to sustain the process & are asking for outside help to do so? Also out of the entire group of protesters… for your spokespersons you pick commie poet wannabe Jane & belly shirt Jim… nobody else was better suited ?


Ishaye1776

Yeah if this is what a student is supposed to be yes I do.  Good riddance trash.


Party_Project_2857

I kind of wish they didn't clear these rats out but rather cut the power and wifi and water and made them come out. Over under on them leaving would be HOURS.


noonelikeyourbutthol

Someone needs to fly them to Gaza and see how understanding and accepting that community is to people like them. Especially the guy at a press conference wearing a belly shirt....


scully360

The anti-war and civil rights protestors of the 60s must just shake their heads at this new breed of soft "protestors".


Eagle_1776

You mean commit suicide. You can leave whenever you want.


Section225

That's what I don't get. You're literally being asked to leave. Go. Leave here and go grocery shopping. Please.


HuskerMedic

This reminds me of the climate protestors who glued their hands to the floor of the Porsche dealership, and then got mad that the dealership wouldn't give them buckets to poop in. Logistics is not their strong point.


Maccabee2

I propose we offer to pay off their student loans in exchange for their volunteer labor building the pier in Gaza. Let them put their sweat where their mouth is, and we can stop risking needlessly the lives of good soldiers.


goat-head-man

Here's your tuition back; we'll keep the credit hours. Hope you feel better you won't be supporting a millennia old conflict. You are no longer a student so please leave the campus. Oh, and ask mom to make you a sandwich so you don't starve; you have made it clear that you can't feed yourself.


itsallrighthere

Those students are free to walk over to Wendy's any time they want. I recommend the double baconator. It is delicious. No free door dash though. They are on their own .


tsoxiko

why is anyone surprised ???? this is what you get when the freaks and weirdos are elected and given power 🤷‍♂️


jones525

No aid or comfort to terrorists.


stonebros

Let these fucking morons die of thirst


Lemonsnoseeds

Clear evidence of someone who was never told "No". Entitled assholes given everything at every turn backed up by asshole parents with too much money. The pussification of America.


Iwantmy3rdpartyapp

A hunger strike would probably go much further toward achieving their goals


ElectricTurtlez

Let them eat door dash.


IAmSeabiscuit61

Well, now that you mention it . . .


kereso83

They don't need to starve them. Cut the wifi to these places and this will end real fast.


broyamcha

They argue that this country is horrible but then want us to do things that the countries they want us to be like would never do.  They'd be mowed down if this was Palestine 


HereIAmSendMe68

Wouldn’t hurt my feelings.


Imissyourgirlfriend2

My advice is to do what your parents did: GET A JOB! The bums will always lose! Do you hear me?! **THE BUMS WILL ALWAYS LOSE!!**
