With the greenlight of Columbia President Minouche Shafik and her administration, NYPD has entered Hind Hall through the windows and begun to mass arrest students inside. Let this be remembered as Columbia and Shafik’s legacy: one of mobilizing the violence and terror of the state against their own students and faculty, solely to prevent an end to Columbia’s complicity in a genocide.

    No they just want to be cool and have control over some part of their lives.

    They’re protesting about someone else’s lives, not their own. Last I checked this isn’t Vietnam where those same students are being conscripted to fight a war.

    Breaking and entering can easily be a good form of protest but it matters where you break into.

    Breaking into a random building is not a good form of protest. I would even argue your example isn’t great either, nor really a protest.
