Tropical Soulvanglical's finding a lot to unpack with respect to what's plain to him as the Israel Haters' takeover of higher education at this time. He beseeches the listener to dispense with all the talk about allowing for free speech, because he doesn't see this as central to the issue at hand. Firstly, it's about what he hears on audio as authorities saying that the protest groups were infiltrated with sinister antisemitic elements, but TSV observes the protest groups as not dismissing those elements. Again, TSV brings up the example of the more peaceful BLM protestors dismissing elements that were infiltrating them at the time and saying, "this is not us." Never at any time did TSV hear the current protest groups saying such a thing, which to him is progressives looking the other way from a clear instance of immorality the same way they looked away 10 years ago when Putin took over and occupied Crimea. That was a year before TSV was made to lose a job because of progressive comfort with both big tech and Ed Snowden, both of which are only now getting their due of criticism. Secondly, he leans on the colleges not to divest from Israel as part of the Haters' demands, because then (like Hamas) they'll move the goal posts and say, oh now that we got you to do that, also do this. TSV doesn't see the Haters' demands as ever ending. He'll see them as effectively dismantling all the occupied colleges' rules and regulations and security departments to the point where he sees students partying all night, sleeping all day and not tending to their studies, because why -shouldn't- he believe this to be the result? Since he lost his job nine years ago, he's been implicitly and justifiably distrustful of the ever encroaching progressive movement. Though he found another job and has -reasonably- recovered economically, he's not going back to that time. He wants people to know who it really is the colleges are dealing with at this time, and also for the colleges to refer the matter to the relevant student councils. We're only talking about 100 protestors for every 10,000 students, so that's only 1% getting their say in, and most of them TSV suspects as not even being from the colleges they're occupying. Thirdly, TSV suspects foreign active measures at least in the darker half of the protests, and he's thinking Iran. After all, TSV remembers about Putin's active measures in 2016, so this strikes him as more or less the same thing. But here's the thing. -If- the colleges end up having to compromise all that they were ever about, they can wait till the protestors fold their tents and go home, and then quietly revest and roll back the rules and security departments when the protestors aren't there anymore to notice it. TSV recommends the colleges wait two weeks after the protestors leave, because again that's a news cycle worth of info, and by then we'll be deep into the Trump Trials.
