In the spring of 1985 we padlocked the front doors of Hamilton Hall, renaming it Mandela Hall, and encamped on the steps for three weeks. Columbia divested from South Africa in the fall of 1985.

What does it mean when people like Housefather say we can't let what happened in the US happen here? US students already face summary suspension and eviction, riot police, violent arrests, tear gas, LRAD, snipers on roofs. You want a Tiananmen-style massacre to protect Zionism?
It’s the dirty little secret of housing policy - that the root of rapidly rising house prices is govts encouraging treating homeownership as an investment. And no government is willing to address it.

I cannot get over this. This is a brain full of Ayn Rand and SlateStarCodex trying to drain all of the color out of the world. Literally. Balaji's vision of a better, Network State, is apparently limited to cops and grey t-shirts. Spare me.

Shameful hypocrisy from @RobinMartinPC and @OntarioPCParty. @fordnation was seemingly interested in being on the right side of history earlier this week and yet institutional racism continues unabashed for all to see.

The coverage around Columbia has been one of the most explicit cases of manufacturing consent I’ve seen in my lifetime. Very thankful to indie and community journalists on the ground, social media, and an exceptionally well-organized protest movement for bringing truth to light.

During the pogroms yesterday in Ramallah. Israeli soldiers working hand in hand with settlers & guarding them as they set fire to Palestinian homes and cars. The incident is from Deir Dibwan. The Israeli military is the one who provides protection for such attacks
The destruction of the Iranian consulate in Damascus functioned, in part, as a distraction from the massacre of hundreds that had been uncovered at al-Shifa', and in turn was buried by the news of the triple-tapped aid workers. All are symptoms of the endless impunity of Israel.
According to the interviews in this report, Israel’s claims that al-Shifa was a “Hamas base” seems to come down to the fact that the hospital had a temporary civil government office in one of the buildings processing payroll to civilian employees. And since the gov’t is Hamas…

Don't stand here, don't stop here, don't come near here, don't wear this, don't say that, don't wave that, don't boycott that, don't talk so loud, don't look so angry, don't don't don't. If it's not one thing, it will always be another.

Criticizing Israel online is a wild experience because it can do the craziest shit, like air strikes against a consulate or shelling a hospital into oblivion, but people will still talk to you as if you were insane for even thinking there might be something wrong with that.

Mushroom cloud and apartheid disliker.You may well have the unusual situation of the Columbia student radio station being eligible for a Pulitzer Prize, administered by Columbia University, for the station’s coverage of how Columbia called the cops on Columbia students. (They’re doing an extraordinary job).
They didn’t rename the hall after a combatant, or an anti-Zionist, or an anti-Israeli…. They named it after the five year old who died alone and terrified, because Israel killed her family and the paramedics trying to reach her. Powerful witness and beautiful resistance
I really do love when Trump sits down for a written interview and they have to transcribe exactly how he talks.
Iraq war protesters were smeared & hated in the moment. Same with Vietnam war protesters. Today anybody with a functioning brain realizes they were 100% correct & the conventional wisdom was dead wrong. The fact that people don't see this is exactly what's happening now is…
@progressIL Eat a dick, Jerry. Nobody cares what you think. Any feeble legacy you may have had in this city is forever tarnished by you laughing at and cheering on police while they beat young people for opposing a genocide. For shame.
Joe Biden campaign officially dies tonight. With a naked and brutal display of fascism in the nation's largest city, mobilized against unarmed students on their own campus. This is what he said he would prevent Trump from doing. This is why we said there was no difference.
Can’t wait for the president of Columbia University to tell my industry what’s good journalism at the Pulitzers next week. Try not to trip over any hogtied student journalists while collecting your award.
Instead of all this, Columbia could simply not invest in Lockheed Martin and other companies profiting off occupation and genocide.
NYPD Riot Cops are officially storming Columbia University! I was just chased off the sidewalk! Thank you so much for keeping us all safe from non-existent Anti-Semitism! Hopefully now Israel can continue to pulverize Gaza in peace! @JoeBiden @SpeakerJohnson
This is how they treat peacemakers in Congress – like criminals, while war criminals are lauded for their actions. And when Congressman Jerry Nadler, ranking Democrat on the judiciary committee, walks by, he refuses to look or respond to our plea to stop sending weapons to…
i really can't stress how useful it would be for people in political media to occasionally, from time to time, read a book
“Peaceful non violence” was the predicate of the Civil Rights Movement. Taking over a building and destroying property feels January 6th ish to me. 🤷🏽♂️
if you are going to post obvious propaganda from Mayor Eric Adams’ administration and then delete it hours after everyone called you out, you owe it to your audience as a supposed journalist to explain exactly what happened here
My fear is that Israel is going to force women and children to leave Rafah, and then kill all the men
I’ve been wearing a nice big Star of David necklace this entire time at Columbia, and oddly experienced no “Anti-Semitic Harassment.” It’s almost like the people who claim to experience such “harassment” deliberately go around trying to provoke it for social media clout
All of this was being posted and filmed and UCLA did nothing?
Where are the police protecting students from these thugs?

ccny campus magazine livestream is genuinely incredible, they’re reading out police badge numbers + names and getting people in the chat to search complaints filed against them, then reading the complaints back out loud to the cops 😭
@vivafalastin @chaedria They are also calling out cops who have refused to turn on their body cams. No lie, there's a high correlation between cops that have complaints against them and turned off bodycams.

I live by Columbia. Tonight I went for a walk & saw 10+ blocks rapidly barricaded, dozens of police vehicles flying by, large groups of NYPD in riot gear gathering. I study protest in E Europe. What I saw tonight was some of the most wildly disproportionate policing I've seen 1/
