If anyone wondered what would have happened in the US if the US had a wave of protests similar to Hong Kong… This is what would have happened. In fact, this protest seems better organized, more structured, and a little awe inspiring to be honest
Now the question is if the students can organize en masse and march on the capital to occupy the Capitol.
That’s exactly what they should do. Take this energy to DC and storm the Capital.
You guys really try to use that to make it less of an issue.
Blue state, blue governor, blue mayor, blue senators, you physically cannot get more blue if you tried.
And yet, here we are
“…a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them.”
Maybe if we vote more blue, this won’t happen again…
“Blue mayor” and “Blue governor” are REALLY stretching the definition here… with a healthy push from the ever shifting Overton window.
Look at actions, not words or badges that people pin to their own lapels without earning them.
They’re members of the Democratic party. They are, by definition, blue.
They are a reddish shade of purple, at best.
US Supreme Court justices are, by definition, the highest arbiters of truth in the US… BUT the definition is clearly trailing the reality.
Actions, not words.
Regardless of what side of the issue being protested you are on if you are in favor of cops in riot gear breaking up a peaceful protest, you are a traitor to our country.
It’s that simple. You cannot stand for American values and cheer that a peaceful protest was dismantled by government goons.

This referred to CUNY a few times. I thought that, City University of New York, was a different institution, and I got the impression the article was referring to Columbia University as CUNY. Maybe I missed something?
