How Do We Talk About Campus Protests?


Pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses have been met with suspensions, expulsions, and arrests. This week, Audie talks with two people in the middle of the story to understand how they view and talk about this moment. We hear from Krasimir Staykov, a junior and an activist at Pomona College in Claremont, California. He and others were…

  1. The shameful mainstream media and the ADL have been smearing and criminalizing these peaceful protesters in order to justify calling the police on them.

  2. It's not complicated. Protest is fine, even when they are saying things like, "Death to America" "Yemen, Yemen, you make us proud" "We are Hamas" and "Global Intifada." Personally, I think it's great when people show you who they are. I am 35 minutes into this and still waiting for the other side of the story. CNN, WTF?

    No Jewish student to talk about all the attempts Hamas has made to eliminate the Jewish people every week for YEARS. No mathematicians to talk about how ridiculous the Hamas numbers are (e.g., Dec reported numbers would mean only 12 men were killed and all the rest were women and children–statistically impossible). No Jewish students who have been told they should be eliminated. No Jewish students who have been blocked from going to classes. No Jewish students who were spit on. No Jewish students who were hit with a flag pole. And on and on. The abuses by the protesters, some of whom may not be students, are easy to find. There are plenty of videos online.

    No one wants to see civilians die. It would help if the protesters weren't denying Oct 7 and ripping down posters of hostages, some of whom are Americans. That is pretty disgusting to most normies. Also, protest all you like, but when you trespass on and trash someone's property, you should be arrested. Grow up!

  3. Start with being truthfully since the israeli terrorist propaganda began to control western media us news outlets gave become less reliable then north Korean state tv

  4. Apparently, lie? Dana Bash, one of your leading anchors just chooses to lie. It’s really easy, just pretend they are violent even when “the physical clashes” (very nice btw, you’re catching on)?which was 100% done by pro Israeli thugs screaming Hebrew, just ignore that and call them “the physical clashes”

    Talk to Dana Bash, she is really good at this Audie. I miss you on radio lab, but there’s more money at CNN. So, you better not stray too far from Zionism or you are going to get canned! Again, talk with Dana, she’ll get you squared away.

  5. When you give away free college, to undeserving opportunists looking to further their lives at the expense of others ,…WHAT DID YOU EXPECT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN?
    UNDESERVED GRADES AND A FREE LUNCH DO NOT INSTILL PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY OR MORALS, IN FACT REWARDING THESE DOLTS WITH A FREE EDUCATION IS SENDING A CLEAR MESSAGE , EVERYONE IS ABLE TO SEE THE RESULTS. COLLEGE IS CLEARLY NOT FOR EVERYONE. GETTING A DEGREE IS WORK, SOMETHING THESE "PROTESTERS" DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

    And these are not protesters, they are self entitled opportunists seeking attention and forgiveness for their guilt for deceiving their clueless parents, and their self loathing. These are the bottom of the barrel, and all of the other students working hard to actually learn something can spot them a mile away. The real insanity are these sociology professors who believe they know better, when they themselves are total failures as actual human beings. Sociology professors are the result of helicopter parents, montisorie schools and permissive idiots who all should have been investigated by real child services organizations. This is a direct result of participation awards and lax parenting where the parents are NOT parents but life buddies and friends. This is also a direct result of single mothers demanding their rights and child support so that they can be free to do whatever they want.

    Simple fact: Personal responsibility and consequences are NOT being taught anymore. These students are free to destroy, make demands, and lie and steal from anyone or anything, all in the name of their rights. YOUR RIGHTS, AND THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF ACTUALLY LIVING IN A FREE SOCIETY DO NOT MATTER TO THESE PEOPLE! 707

  6. Why does the media fear talking about news? And why this topic in particular? For most Americans under 50, this topic is not controversial at all and the right side of history is easy to distinguish.

  7. Can we get some of these students on prime time? This is the one time where I’ve seen not just someone talking to an actual student, but also giving them the space to properly air out their ideas

  8. *THE COLLLEGE CHAOS WILL BRING DOWN JOE BIDEN IN NOVEMBER! 1968. Anti-war protesters descended on Chicago, the site of the Democratic national convention, where vice-president Hubert Humphrey was considered a shoo-in to succeed LBJ as president. Nightly riots were absolute chaos and violence! The country recoiled from the pictures on the evening news and Republican Richard Nixon was elected president! IF HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF THIS SUMMER AT THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION IN CHICAGO – DONALD TRUMP WILL BE ELECTED THE 47TH PRESIDENT!

  9. All that these Universities, Professors and "caring students" want to do is control language, or create a "welcoming" environment for their D,E,I students, make them feel "safe". And yet, when their anti-colonial, oppressor/oppressed fantasies are being fulfilled, all that goes out the window. The double standard is sickening.
