We all understand that you need to feel important and significant because you know that, in reality, you are insignificant and mediocre, so protesting gives you that feeling. We know you're doing this for your own personal psychological satisfaction and not because of Palestine, imperialism, or anything else. You can't make it in the real world and have accomplishments in the real world so you manufacture "accomplishments" by protesting, to give yourself some simulacrum of power to distract from the reality of your impotence.

All of you are net negatives to society. You take, steal, damage, warp and destroy; rather than build, create, heal and curate.

Humanity will be worse off for your existence.

Oh yeah. For some of you, have a nice flight home.

STUPID:

You can’t fix it;

You can’t change it;

You can’t reason with it;

You can’t rationalize with it;

You can’t educate it;

Stupid is, in fact, forever.

You misspelled Bassel. You can't even properly spell the name of the terrorist you are supporting.

You are making a terrible mistake, and it is hurting the cause of liberation for Palestinians.

There is no secret history of "effectiveness" in what you euphemistically call "Palestinian armed resistance." And how could there be? People are rightly repelled by the abomination of violence against civilians, especially the gleeful barbarity of the attacks by Hamas on October 7th. What did those attacks achieve, other than to provide cover for the genocidal elements of the Israeli government?

And what have you achieved in your "actions" that spring from the same poisoned idelogical well? They have failed under their own terms. You have not successfully "exerted pressure" on the University. To the contrary, you have made it laughably easy to dismiss you -- you have given the University an excuse to silence you and you have given the opponents of the Palestinian cause an opportunity to discredit that cause as being ideologically aligned with terrorists. Nor have you forced the reality of genocide in Gaza into the public consciousness. To the contrary, you have centered yourselves. Nobody responds to your actions by thinking about Gaza. They think instead about you, and you thereby provide a screen behind which Israel's attack on Gaza can proceed.

Abandon this failed ideology and reject those who lie to you about its effectiveness. Until you do, you will be nothing more than an unwitting instrument for those who would destroy the Palestinian people.
