As police cracked down on anti-war protests on college campuses across the US in recent weeks, among those arrested were a pair of silver-haired 65-year-old professors armed only with their cell phones.
Annelise Orleck was knocked to the ground and restrained with plastic handcuffs at a protest at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire. She later complained of whiplash.
Steve Tamari was tackled by officers and taken into custody at a demonstration at Washington University in St. Louis, an attack he said resulted in multiple broken ribs and a broken hand.
Orleck and Tamari are among at least 50 professors arrested at campus protests across the country, according to a CNN review of police records, court filings, and news reports. (Since April 18, more than 2,400 students have been arrested amid protests on more than 50 campuses.) In some cases, professors said they were actively participating in protests based on their own beliefs. Others said they attended to show support for their students.
We’re already in the authoritarian regime everyone is worried is coming.
The rich donors pull the strings at universities and government. Lots of Zionists among them
There is quite certainly a Group of wealthy people purchasing influence in American academics.
The question is, how fast do you want it to get worse?
If you believe the premise, the answer to that question is moot, friend.
I’ve been watching it unfold live for my entire life. Republicans, especially Trump, push capitalism into overdrive at the cost of the environment, workers wages and safety, and support of the most vulnerable members of society. Democrats will never fix everything, but they absolutely moderate and slow the progression of inequality.

Why would you attempt a liberal outreach program in response to a comment like mine?
I’m sorry to say, Fox News doesn’t report on the accomplishments of Democrats.
Hm? Is this an attempt to paint me as a FOX watching bobblehead? Oh dear we are going to have a problem if you are gonna play stupid games. Address the meat of the comment you initally responded to or put on your big shoes and honk your goofy ass out the door
Where else would you like me to find a comprehensive list of Biden’s support for low and middle class Americans? Pick a point on the massive list of goals and accomplishments, and cross reference it for validity. They’re legislative action, so you’ll find plenty of news corroboration from center and left leaning media.
Lol it can always get worse, especially when one of only two options tells you how much they’re going to make it worse for everyone.
This is just more bOtH sIdEs bullshit…
Goddamn feels good to have someone else say it. I mean it feels bad, too. Mostly bad
