    Case in point: all the college protests. All the arrests happening are from people being encouraged on TikTok to become aggressive and angry towards apartheid. But the question is how the fuck is protesting at a college going to change what a government in another country is going to do in any way? The Israeli government gives little to no fuck about kids opinions protesting at a college campus in the United States. It’s likely civil unrest being spread by TikTok.

      THEY ARE TRYING TO STOP THE GENOCIDE BEING PERPETRATED IN THEIR NAME

      College protests have been a thing since Vietnam. Look up Kent State.

      It wasn’t China that gave them the idea, it was history.

      And it’s working. More and more people are sympathizing with Palestine the more the government overreacts to peaceful protests.
