Asking College Students if They Know Why They are Protesting

The stupidity is overwhelming and difficult to watch. I stopped after 1:17.
It might be funny, except that in light of history the spread of anti-Semitism is too serious of an issue to laugh at.
But thanks for posting to emphasize how these protests have nothing to do with Palestinian rights.
Actually they are getting smarter and more organized. Only using official spokespeople for messaging so less idiotic comments released. Masking to stop camera usage for facial recognition.
I have no doubt there are people protesting generically against the govt and some govt systems as well.

MAGA supporters really shouldn't post videos about the stupidity of other followers.
You can always find a skoob in any crowd.
Of course it is. I was commenting on the organizing. I've seen footage of message unity, not speaking to journalists and vloggers. And that means they will have serious outreach.
This summer the grads may decide to have a summer of protest. A lot will depend on Rafah.
Who is funding/organizing these protests?
It`s a Cosplay revolution, what a bunch of fucking idiots.
Will these "students" hack it out for the summer? Will Mommy and Daddy threaten to cut them off if they don't stop their childish games?
Why don't they camp out and protest in winter? Those tents can get pretty hot in the summer.

What funding?
A bunch of kids sit in fields, how expensive is that?
Who pays for all the brand new green tents, food, water, whatever means of organized communication, etc?
None of that is free.
Movements require funding.
Just like BLM required funding.
Meanwhile we have a group Canada lists as Jewish terrorists showing up to harass those same students.
This is what that tells us.

There was no money behind BLM either.
Just grassroots opposition to racism.
Riiiiight so no one funded the acquisition of pallets stacked with bricks and strategically placing them at the major protest and looting locations and no one funded antifa to organize either hmmmmm
I don't have 8 minutes to waste, so I watched the first bunch of people he tried to get a "gotcha" quote from. It seems to me, they were quite smart, deferring comments to the spokespeople. You could go to any large crowd of people, and there is a good chance that eventually you'll find some people who are ill-informed and willing to speak, and as the Dunning-Kruger effect proves, they will look/sound like idiots. I see it all the time from videos at MAGA rallies. Now, I'm not going to suggest there are Mensa candidates there, but some of the shit they say is mind blowingly stupid.
So, while not everyone will be able to articulate why they are supporting the protests, I don't think it makes them any less genuine.

Yeah, because that did not happen.....outside of right-wing fever dreams....But the facts show this is just a conspiracy theory that took hold of those opposed to BLM/Antifa or what ever you want to call it.Riiiiight so no one funded the acquisition of pallets stacked with bricks and strategically placing them at the major protest and looting locations and no one funded antifa to organize either hmmmmm
Nonsense. Each protester may not be able to speak to the reasons of all other protesters, or even of the organizers, but surely they know their own reasons for being there/holding signs or flags/chanting (unless they are suffering from some form of mental illness, and have no power to reason). If the reason is "something is happening, and I just want to see what it is", that makes them a voyeur, not a protester.
I think an honest answer for a lot of them is "Someone promised me $100 and camping gear if I showed up here today, and said there's more where that came from if I hang around longer".
You think cities don't have maintenance programs?Riiiiight so no one funded the acquisition of pallets stacked with bricks and strategically placing them at the major protest and looting locations and no one funded antifa to organize either hmmmmm
And if you notice, some of there protestors are gay and carry rainbow flags. Im not sure they are even aware they will get persecuted acting like that in Gaza.
