I am super proud of the Aggies who have organized this peaceful pro-Palestinian demonstration.

They’re not interfering with anything else happening on campus, they’re educating each other on the conflict, they’re making sure everyone has water, and not breaking any rules. pic.twitter.com/rtT0VYn0sR

unbelievable. Our great campus.

They are breaking the laws of nature, unfortunately we don't enforce those laws.

They may be idiots, but at least they're peaceful idiots. Our student body can at least agree to disagree without the need to break into buildings and assault people, and for that we should be proud.

OP: I'm sorry, I don't understand what you find so offensive about the situation. Could you please elaborate?

I personally don't see anything wrong with that clip. If they want to be morons and hold moronic (even disgusting) views openly and publicly, I say go for it. Just don't threaten, harm, or interfere with sane people who just want to get an education they are paying for.

God bless the first (and second) amendment(s).

Peacefully supporting some of the most violent humans on earth. Maybe they can get a Jew or Homosexual to voluntarily jump off a building in solidarity

Yeah, I can promise there is no "educating" happening there.

That said, as long as they are not breaking university rules or being destructive/disruptive, I am in the disappointed camp and not the outraged camp. With so many students from all over the world, we are bound to see things like this.

Don't like it, but have come to grips with it.

We've had leftist protestors on campus for decades. I remember them when I was a student, and having lived in B/CS most of my life, they happened even when I was a kid.

Given how many students we have on campus, the 30-40 useful idiots out there is a very tiny number.

And as already noted, they followed the rules, were polite to others, did not commit any kind of violence, and left when it was time.

Why do they all wear masks?

None of them should be given diplomas since they're blatantly morons

All for free speech, but free speech on a college campus should disqualify you from graduating if it's dumb enough and this is.

They are horribly misguided and probably poorly informed and are allowing themselves to be used as useful idiots, but at least they are doing that in an acceptable way that allows for disagreement without disruption and destruction.

I'm against Nazis on campus.

masks - it's the surest sign that someone is a complete and total moron. You see one, you realize there is no hope for this person and you write them off.

a.) they are unpopular, ugly losers with no friends
b.) they are still virtue signalling that mUh PaNdEmIc isnt over
c.) they are ImMuNoCoMpRoMiZeD or claim to be "Long" Covidians
d.) they dont want to be identified and doxed because they are weak ******* with indefensible positions.

Take your pick, b,c are just excuses, a or d is likely the real reason.

Hundreds of Aggies have died for their right to do exactly what they are doing, peacefully protesting. Even if we disagree with there message, they have the right to be heard. We should be proud of them for not embarrassing us like the protesters at tu have embarrassed their school.

The chick with the a** should be proud.

Lol what?

What is with the masks? Don't want to back up your ideologies with conviction by showing your face?

Compared to what we've seen on other campuses, this is tame so its good there's not any major issues and flare ups there. Seems even on A&Ms campus there will always be a contingent of leftist fringe that will take up their time protesting or proselytizing on their various warped causes of the day. Alvard is likely involved with this bunch like he was with the Sully stuff.

not commenting on their peaceful protest. it's ignorant but they can do what they want.

The masks though... that condemns them on it's own.

Mask = part of the marxist nazi uniform. That and the umbrella

They hate Jews. Thought his post was pretty obvious

Compared to what's happening elsewhere, that actually makes me proud of my school.

Protest all you want. I don't care. Just don't be a dewsh about it.

I am not at all proud to be even loosely associated with anyone that provides support to Hamas or related ilk. I would much prefer they had no association whatsoever with Texas A&M.

That said, I would absolutely tolerate them because that's the give and take of being an American.

Nazis wanted Jews wiped from the face of the Earth. Palestinians want Jews wiped off the face of the Earth. People supporting those who would wipe Jews off the face of the Earth are modern day Nazis

Anti American
Anti Semitic
cowardly idiots wearing masks

what's not to like.

I support admiral akbar

I wonder how many of these people are actually students ? ? ? Guessing that at least half came up from Houston. Seems to me a bunch came from Houston to protest Sully's Statue and a couple of other things.

Masks just mean that you are an idiot or you do not want to be recognized.

They are supporting people that massacred people simply because they follow a different religion. Or they are supporting the people that celebrated the massacre. Either way they are disgusting individuals that do not belong in a civil society.

I bet a lot of them are not students.

Saw a young gal interviewed on Fox (I think at Columbia or NYU) who was saying 10/7/23 denial is rampant with these kids.

They're just getting brainwashed.

I guarantee there is nothing bilateral in the education going on with that group. They are there to make statements, visually and verbally, not to listen or learn.

I had to watch several times, why does the hammass with the sign at his feet have some pretty big pieces of concrete also within arms reach? Hmmmm!

If they want to wear the Yasser Arafat Starter kits, OK. UNCOVER YOUR FACE. If you believe enough in your cause, and you really believe it will stay non damaging and non violent, then show yourself.

Make your signs, no tents, and pick up your garbage. Your unsightly presence with those disgusting pro-terrorist signs and your ridiculous costumes are bad enough, our beautiful campus does not need your garbage left behind as well.

Expect debate. Your position is horribly weak, if it can be defended at all. Your side cooks infants alive in ovens while making the mother watch, blows women's brains out during the act of raping them, in public in front of their families. Palestinians by the vast majority support the actions of Hamas, and facilitate them where they can. They spit on and threw things at the bodies ad hostages of October 7, while publicly celebrating. There are two types of Palestinians, current and future combatants. Back them if you want, but you will and should, get blowback.

Furthermore, you are being brainwashed into a Cult. Every day you consume the tripe being fed to you and not wake up, is 10 more it will take to right yourself mentally once you start to see the light. The Right light. You are being used as a tool, for a cause that would cut your throat in a heart beat. America is hated because it raised above this 3rd World ****hole culture, and will continue to do so as long as people remain Pro-American and don't let our youth fall for the leftist trash propaganda. You are that youth. WTFU.

I am not talking about forced political re-education. You have to fix yourself. It is your responsibility. Because if you take it up to Intifada levels and are part of or facilitate that, it is likely not to bode well for those that do, and you probably don't have the stomach or backbone for it.

There are 70,000 enrolled students.

I mean, of course some are ….

If they're not threatening to stab counter protesters they're at least a step up from the A&M athlete's BLM protest at the Sul Ross statue in 2020.

That's a pretty low bar for pride. I don't think people of similar political persuasion/identities acting like terrorists should elevate the ones acting like somewhat normal humans to a position that others would look at with a feeling of pride.
