I’m sure her heart was in the right place, but by explicitly breaking the rules of the bus Rosa Parks had more than a little in common with January 6.

I hope everyone on here talking about 'occupying private property is wrong and the police response is warranted' realizes that they're publicly admitting they would have opposed the Civil Rights Movement

After days of Biden repeatedly condemning campus protests as antisemitic, pro-Israel demonstrators have now violently attacked an encampment at UCLA, calling for a 'Second Nakba!'

Biden was warned his increasingly hostile rhetoric would fuel this kind of violence.

I am watching a toddler die on a table in a field hospital in Rafah with half her face blown apart while listening to college students fight tears reporting on a police assault on their campus for protesting that, and I feel like I am losing my fucking mind.

Student protesters were right about segregation in the early '60s, right about Vietnam in the late '60s, right about apartheid in the '80s, right about Iraq in 2003, and right about wealth inequality in 2011. Seems generally bad to side against student movements.

I am not in the business of denying atrocities. But people: even Haaretz has fully debunked the 'mass rape' narrative of 10/7.

10/7 was bad enough. You do not need to lie and pile on false stories of rape and beheaded babies.

Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. .

How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below.

“The Technical Papers for 2018-2019 & 2024-25 provide the # of classroom educators per 1,000 students. For kindergarten, the number dropped from 95 to 90. For grades 4 to 8, it dropped from 54 to 52. For grades 9 to 12, it dropped from 74 to 70.”

That’s 5000 teachers.

UofT: our university operates in the land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. We honour this relation.

Also UofT: UofT’s lands and buildings are private property, activities have to be authorised and encampments are considered trespassing.

🤔😒

It really appears to be unfathomable to so many that young people have real political opinions, and act on conscience, not peer pressure.

The invasion of Iraq radicalized me in 2nd yr uni. I devoured all the info I could to understand the situation. I wasn't trying to be cool.

During the massacre at al-Shifa Hospital, the Israeli army shot patients in their beds and doctors who refused to abandon the sick, separated people into groups with differently-colored bracelets, and executed hundreds of civil government employees.

This school year, every student received $1,357 less funding than they would have if the government had kept up with inflation.

This is equal to a $35,000 cut per classroom, and a $2.7 billion cut in per-student funding across Ontario.

Public education is drowning.

The United Nations has called for “a clear, transparent and credible investigation” into the mass graves uncovered at two of Gaza’s major hospitals that had been raided by Israeli troops.
